The brand’s largest franchisee opens its seventh location
Oklahoma City, OK (RestaurantNews.com) Oklahoma City, grab your forks! The Big Biscuit®, a modern All-American breakfast and lunch franchise concept known for its classic comfort food served with genuine hometown hospitality, is officially open at 6406 N. May Ave. in Country Club Corner.
The highly anticipated opening marks Steve Zahn’s seventh Big Biscuit restaurant since 2020. Zahn is the largest franchisee of The Big Biscuit and brings more than 30 years of multi-unit restaurant operator experience to the table. Zahn plans to open four more Big Biscuit restaurants in the Oklahoma market in the coming years.
As an Oklahoma resident, Zahn is committed to supporting the local communities he serves. In 2023, Zahn launched the brand’s first Stuff The Bus initiative, a donation drive that collects and distributes new school supplies to public schools for students in need, setting them up for a successful school year. Due to the positive impact, Stuff The Bus became a brand-wide effort in 2024, leading to hundreds of school supplies donated to over 20 school districts. Beyond Stuff The Bus, Zahn’s commitment to community support extends to partnerships with public schools throughout Oklahoma. He also collected children’s pajamas during the 2024 holiday season through the brand-wide initiative, Pajama Jam. Through these community-centric efforts, Zahn continues to make a lasting impact on the communities he serves, one biscuit at a time.
