Ozark Mountain Biscuit & Bar, OzarkMountainBiscuits.com
The Ozark Mountain Biscuit Company food truck is known for traveling around Columbia and making stops at the Columbia Farmers Market, Logboat Brewing Company, and Office Depot and serving up unique meals on homemade buttery biscuits. And now, the company is opening its first brick-and-mortar restaurant this summer at 1204 Hinkson Avenue near Logboat. The food truck will still be in operation, but now the popular food destination will have a permanent spot to serve its southern classics. Follow the biscuit truck on Facebook at Ozark Mountain Biscuit Co. and Twitter at @biscuit_truck for future updates.
