Rise Southern Biscuits & Righteous Chicken

About Rise Southern Biscuits & Righteous Chicken

We opened Rise in Durham in 2012 with a simple vision…serve great food made with premium quality ingredients by people who care. In doing so, we pushed boundaries with flavor combinations and made breakfast and lunch fun again. Rise serves Southern Breakfast Biscuits, Righteous Chicken Sandwiches and Best Dang Boxes, waitstaff-free and with a swift service line. Our fluffy, buttermilk, Cheddar, and blueberry biscuits are made from scratch and filled with savory ingredients ranging from crispy bacon and country sausage to fried green tomatoes and our famous Righteous Chicken.

What makes our chicken Righteous? It’s tenderized, brined in buttermilk, fried to golden-brown perfection and then served on a biscuit, bun or as strips with your choice of toppings and sauces. No meal is complete without an order of Cheddar Tots, our signature cheesy, Idaho potato treats. Top off your Rise adventure with Counter Culture Coffee and one of our sweet treats, like the Cinnamon Biscuit Roll, Glazed Blueberry Biscuit, or our Biscuit Beignets — all made with our famous buttermilk biscuit dough.
