What Is the Bojangles Egg & Cheese Biscuit?
A meat-free breakfast sandwich built on a warm buttermilk-style biscuit, filled with soft folded egg and melted American cheese. It contains egg and dairy, so it is not vegan – but it’s the simplest vegetarian-friendly option on the Bojangles breakfast menu. For the biscuit alone, see the plain biscuit guide.
The biscuit carries most of the flavor: buttery, lightly salted, crisp outside, soft and layered inside. The egg adds protein and body; the melted cheese adds richness. If you skip meat in the morning, this is the most straightforward way to still get a real breakfast sandwich at Bojangles.
Price and Availability
Bojangles Egg & Cheese Biscuit price varies by location, franchise ownership, and ordering channel. Delivery apps typically run higher due to service fees and platform markups.

| Extra cheese or add-ons | +$0.50 – $1.25 |
| Combo with side and drink | Varies by location |
The Bojangles Egg & Cheese Biscuit is served during breakfast hours at participating locations. Breakfast cutoff times differ by store – check the Bojangles app or call ahead if you’re ordering later in the morning. Typical open times are covered in the hours guide.
Taste and Texture
Bite into a Bojangles Egg & Cheese Biscuit and the biscuit is the star: lightly crisp exterior, soft and layered inside, buttery with a light salt edge. The egg is mild but adds moisture and body, keeping the sandwich from eating dry. Melted American cheese ties it together with a creamy, salty finish.
Nothing complicated here – it’s a simple, warm, comforting combination that delivers more than its short ingredient list suggests.
Ingredients
| Ingredient | What It Adds |
|---|---|
| Buttermilk-style biscuit | Buttery flavor, soft layers, warm base |
| Egg | Protein, softness, breakfast flavor |
| American cheese | Creamy texture, salty richness |
The biscuit is made with wheat flour, dairy, leavening agents, salt, and fat – the standard base for Bojangles’ biscuit line. The egg is served as a folded/cooked portion; American cheese is used for its smooth melt.
Note: ingredient sourcing and prep can vary slightly by location. If you have a strict allergy or dietary restriction, confirm directly with your local store before ordering.
Calories and Nutrition
Approximate Bojangles Egg & Cheese Biscuit nutrition values, based on standard preparation:
| Nutrient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Calories | ~430 kcal |
| Total Fat | ~25g |
| Saturated Fat | ~10g |
| Trans Fat | ~0.5g |
| Cholesterol | ~185mg |
| Sodium | ~1,150mg |
| Carbohydrates | ~39g |
| Fiber | 0g |
| Sugars | ~4g |
| Protein | ~13g |
The number to watch is sodium. At ~1,150mg, this single item covers roughly half a standard 2,000mg daily sodium target – even though it’s meat-free. Pair it with a low-sodium side if you’re tracking intake.
Is It Vegetarian?
Yes – the base sandwich contains no meat. It does contain egg and dairy, so it is not vegan. Fast-food kitchens share prep space across menu items, so if you avoid meat for religious, allergy, or strict dietary reasons, confirm cross-contact practices with your local store.
Allergens and Gluten
| Allergen | Source |
|---|---|
| Wheat / Gluten | Biscuit (wheat flour) |
| Milk / Dairy | Biscuit and cheese |
| Egg | Egg filling |
| Soy | Possible, depending on ingredients/prep |
This is not a gluten-free item – the biscuit is wheat-based, and Bojangles does not offer a certified gluten-free biscuit alternative. Anyone with celiac disease or a serious gluten sensitivity should avoid it.
Customization Options
| Add-On | Best For | Trade-Off |
|---|---|---|
| Extra cheese | More creamy flavor | Adds calories, dairy |
| Bacon | Smoky, salty upgrade | No longer vegetarian |
| Sausage | Heavier breakfast | More fat, sodium, calories |
| Hot sauce | Extra flavor, no added bulk | Availability varies by store |
| Honey | Sweet-salty contrast | Adds sugar |
| Bo-Tato Rounds | Fuller meal | Adds calories, carbs |
| Coffee | Simple pairing | Lighter than sweetened drinks |
To keep it meat-free: stick with cheese, sauce, honey, or a side. For a heartier breakfast, add bacon or sausage – or jump straight to the Sausage Egg & Cheese Biscuit / combo.
Best Pairings
- Filling option: Bo-Tato Rounds – crispy, seasoned potatoes, the classic Bojangles side.
- Light option: Black coffee or unsweetened tea – keeps the meal simple without added sugar.
- Southern-style option: Sweet tea – adds noticeably more sugar and calories, so pair selectively.
If you want a different kind of warm, filling breakfast without a sandwich, the Bojangles Breakfast Bowl is worth comparing. For something more substantial at lunch, the Bojangles Chicken Rice Bowl is a solid next stop on the menu.

Who Should Order This
Good fit if you want:
- A meat-free Bojangles breakfast
