Best breakfast in Williamsburg! The service was impeccable! We came with a party of 14, we were greeted with an incredibly friendly manager, and with a big smile we were seated with no issues. The food was delicious, fluffy pancakes, fresh fruit, and amazing waffles! I highly recommend this place! You will not go wrong!

Amazing pancakes and waffles. The service is quick and the food is good. It's fun to get the fancy waffles and pancakes. The coffee is meh.

THE CINNAMON SWIRL PANCAKE IS LIFE CHANGING !!! I ordered a "side" portion (which just means one pancake instead of 2). Our service was fast and our waitress was so kind! I need 2 full business days to recover from how good this pancake was. Thanks for being open on Thanksgiving!

This is as good as it gets for lots of unhealthy calories and a very happy tummy. I came here after hearing all the hype of how great this place is and how big the pancakes are. This place does get packed on the weekends. We ended up waiting about 40 minutes on a Sunday morning before the Williamsburg bowling tournament. The food is great. I got the Hungry Man breakfast and it was a flawless victory for my tummy. Nothing left on either plate. Highly recommended to come here on empty stomach. 5 stars!!!

This is still our favorite pancake house here in Williamsburg! It's our go-to when we want the best omelette or pancakes in town! We also always have the nicest servers! It could use a remodel but I think it's part of the charm. It's clean inside so that is what matters to me! Coffee is always refilled and tastes great. They recently changed their cube home fries to a thin potato wedge with great seasoning! Like them better than before! There can be a wait but that is expected on a weekend morning in Williamsburg.

I was really torn between 4-5 stars. Service: 5+ and everything else but ambiance, solid 4s. We came on Sunday of Labor Day weekend, around 10 a.m. The place was packed but with no wait so we were seated in a far corner right away. I didn't get our server's name, sadly, but she was awesome. So that's 5 stars for her! DGD had been here a couple of years ago with her dad, and every time we return to the area, she searches for it and was so delighted to find it again. She raved about the Chocolate Insanity and ordered that. I was astonished to see that she ate very little of it! She did eat some bacon but mostly was "stealing" Mom's grits. Funny girl. DD got a basic 2-egg breakfast with corned beef hash and the grits. I think she was the only disappointed one among us, but she really doesn't love basic breakfast and prefers more exotic fare. She did say the food was excellent, just not her first choice. Forewarned about the size of the pancakes, DGS only got one - it covers the entire plate - but after one bite declared, "This is the best pancake I've had in my entire life!" He is 15 and his favorite till now has been IHOP, just for reference. He ate almost the whole thing, which is rare for him. We shared some sausage links and patties. I like their sausage! It tasted like old-fashioned country sausage, not the usual restaurant fare. My two eggs over medium were just right. I did try a couple of bites of his pancake and it was very tasty. For the first time ever, he didn't finish his chocolate milk, and DGS's pink lemonade was huge so she didn't finish it. I didn't pay so I'm not positive, but I think DD said it was around $75. Parking is free; their own area is small, but you can park in the motel lot at the back, which is also free. I didn't like how close the tables are to each other, and the noise level was at the edge of discomfort for me. I should mention that as we left, there were a lot of people waiting for tables, so we just barely beat the rush. I wouldn't go much past 10!
