Food Friday: Sun Cattle Co.

April 3, 2026

I have been hearing about Sun Cattle Company for quite a while now, supposed to be some of the best burgers in town. We were in the area and decided to stop to give them a try.

First, my biggest issue is the parking situation. There is a parking lot behind the building but you have to pay. During the week, the curbside parking is also pay, if you can find a spot. At least it was a Saturday afternoon but we still parked two blocks away. After our short stroll, we did walk right up to the counter to order. Since it was my first visit, I went with a simple cheeseburger. Big K of course had to have the biggest burger, the Big Jack. I also got an order of their onion rings while Big K chose the chili cheese crowns. We got our order pretty quick. I was pleasantly surprised how big the onion rings were, gigantic. I started on them immediately, they were incredible. Thick pieces of onion dredged through a black pepper batter and perfectly fried. They were the best onion rings I have had in a long time. The burger was good as well. Meat was perfect with a nice char along with plenty of fried onions mixed in on a toasted bun. Big K was thoroughly enjoying his order. He wolfed down the chili cheese crowns, I had a bite and they were good as well. He did love the Big Jack, compared it to the MotherTucker at Tucker’s.

We had a great visit, other than the parking. Sun Cattle Co. has been in the Film District for a couple years now and I can understand why they have been successful. While you are in the area, you can walk around the historic district. Placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007, the Film Exchange Historic District has a lot of Art Deco buildings still standing. I will give them 5 strips of bacon, preferably on a burger.

Address: 800 W. Sheridan Ave., Oklahoma City.

Food Friday: Hunny Bunny Biscuit Company

March 27, 2026

There are getting to be more restaurants in the Oklahoma City metro area that specialize in breakfast, one that I love visiting is the Hunny Bunny Biscuit Company.

We were able to stop in on a cloudy Thursday afternoon, usually the weekends are busier but this day was quiet. Their menu is mostly biscuit related items, biscuit sandwiches, biscuits and gravy, or their version of eggs Benedict called Benny’s. I went with a basic biscuit with bacon, egg, and cheese, while Big K had a hot mess. We both had iced maple cinnamon lattes to drink as well. The drinks were there first, they were great. Could really taste the maple mixing with the cinnamon. Not long after our breakfast meals came out. Not going to lie, the biscuit sandwich is way bigger than anything you can get at a chain restaurant. The biscuit was buttery and everything cooked perfectly. I did get a side of tater tots and they were fried perfectly. Big K’s hot mess consists of a biscuit covered in tots, cheese, sausage gravy, and an egg. He loved every bite.

We always love dedicated breakfast restaurants, Hunny Bunny Biscuit Company has been in the OKC area for almost 10 years now. We’ve been a few times and try new stuff each time. Their original location is on NW 23rd Street with the second location on Memorial Road. If you want biscuits for breakfast, I recommend stopping in someday. I give them 5 strips of bacon.

Address: 429 NW 23rd St., Oklahoma City; 6100 W. Memorial Rd., Oklahoma City.

Food Friday: Maple and Honey Coffee Company

February 27, 2026

If you are up in north Edmond or south Guthrie a new coffee shop has opened and it’s worth a stop. In a small building just south of a strip mall sits the new Maple and Honey Coffee Company.

Opened in March of 2024, this little coffee hut is just a quick stop to get some good coffee. Big K has stopped here a few times and loved everything he has gotten. A few weeks ago was my first visit, I got an iced brown sugar and vanilla latte. Big K got the House, a blended maple breve with a maple soft top and cinnamon. Didn’t take long to get our drinks and we took off down Waterloo Road. I had a quick sip of Big K’s drink, it was good, definite maple flavor. Mine was amazing, love how the brown sugar mixed with the vanilla.

Maple and Honey Coffee Company is a great place to just drive up and get a quick drink. Only about a year old, this veteran owned business has been developing a following. There were quite a few cars driving up but the baristas kept the line moving. So I’ll give them 5 strips of bacon, excited to be up there again to try more of their menu.

Address: 6801 N. Broadway, Edmond.
