There’s nothing like a warm and comforting plate of old fashioned biscuits and gravy to soothe the soul. Unless you can make them from scratch yourself, finding a reliable source of this magical food can be a real challenge. Luckily, some of the best biscuits and gravy are right here in Iowa.
Uptown Cafe is located at 108 W State Street in the small Iowa town of Jefferson.
The biscuits are light, fluffy, and flavorful. The sausage gravy is seasoned perfectly, with those tell-tale tiny flecks of black pepper and hearty chunks of delicious sausage. Two biscuits and and generous serving of gravy will set you back just $4.95.
Everything here is made from scratch, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting.
