Very busy when we walked in but the service was quick. Tables were cleaned quickly after people left so we weren't eating around a bunch of dirty tables. Eggs were so fluffy in our omelettes. Kids had chicken fried steaks which had great flavor and gravy. Homemade chocolate milk was a hit! Reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend! read more

Blue Top Waffle Shoppe - Shrimp omelet fluffy style - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Panama City, Florida

We were looking for a place to eat breakfast due to the fact that everything was packed. We found this place by accident, but were very glad we did. The food was delicious and the portions very generous. The place gives a warm and friendly air as you walk in the door. The biscuit & gravy was amazing. I had the captain Nemo and really liked it. If you like down home cooking , this is the place for you. read more

Ate there for breakfast on my last day to PCB. Awesome service, waffle was good and the sausage patties were some of the best I've had. Hash browns a little to be desired. I'll be back next year! read more

I felt like I needed a steak knife to cut the waffle. It took forever to cut, and I still ended up with pieces stuck stubbornly together by amazingly ductile strands of batter. I don't normally write a review after only one visit; but, when your business name includes your signature dish, and that dish sucks, I infer a lot. That said, the food was decent. I got the Plain Jane Waffle meal ($7) with two eggs, with cheese ($1) added to my grits and a side of bacon ($2) for a grand total just shy of $12. The grits and eggs hit the spot. The bacon was good. I like it crispier than this, but most people would probably appreciate this level of doneness. The coffee, on the other hand, wasn't very good. It tasted like gas station decaf. And, like I said, the waffle, with batter scooped from a vat recessed in the cook's counter top, was underwhelming. Service was friendly and attentive. All in all, this place isn't bad, but neither is it particularly good. My overall impression was of a lesser, quirky, mom-n-pop, imitation Waffle House. read more

Blue Top Waffle Shoppe - Interesting decor - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Panama City, Florida

We headed out to find brunch on Thomas Dr. Passed a very popular spot with cars parked on the street and double parked in the lot. Decided to move on down the road a little. Landed here and are so glad we did. Excellent service, just very nice folks! The coffee was awesome, and they had vanilla creamer! My husband loved his so much he ordered seconds. Price was great too. No complaints here! read more

Always awesome food, cooked by awesome cooks, served by awesome servers, surrounded by awesome customers both local and seasonal. Surrounded by some of the coolest drift wood and beach type decor. All severed at the best prices on PCB. GO SEE Jim or his son James tell them Bacon sent you. read more

I saw a review that said it was a more expensive Waffle House, and they were CORRECT. If you like Waffle House, you will like this place. If you don't, then don't come here. Not really worth the money. The staff is nice, but waited for 45 minutes for our food. P.S.: I didn't mind the food, but it just wasn't worth the more expensive price. read more

Our trip home dose not feel complete, until we stop here. Been going to this place for years. The service is great, the food is delicious, and the locals are friendly. Ordered the Captain Nemo's Hurricane Hash (hash browns, tomatoes, peppers, onions, ham, and cheese. I order two eggs to go on top.)and a Mates Plate (eggs, toast, bacon). Still good, filling, and affordable. read more

Best breakfast on the beach. The staff are ask the best there is. Very nice and friendly. Always a good fish story or sports talk happening

Friendly greeting. Vibe was peaceful and welcoming. Food served fast and hot. Coffee good too.

Our favorite breakfast spot! Excellent combo omelette, biscuits and gravy always good! Always a seat! Staff makes us feel at home!

I will never come back to this place even if the food was amazing. There was an older gentleman who I assume is a regular and he wanted to move tables, which I assume was due to the air vents blowing directly on his wife. Now mind you, this is Memorial Day weekend, and I get the crowds, but this Veteran who had to be in his eighties was scolded loudly by the owner's son in front of the entire restaurant. #1 respect your elders, #2 how about Thank You for your service and business and of course you can switch tables. read more

Very good food and great friendly service. Food is freshly prepared and quickly delivered to your table.

Hands down my favorite breakfast joint! They always greet you when you come in and it's just an all around great local breakfast diner. The food is always prepared well and the restaurant is very clean. I definitely recommend a fluffy omelet.. you won't be disappointed! read more

Breakfast was expensive and less than stellar. Ham and cheese omelette is hard to mess up but they accomplished it. It tasted like fish. Hash browns were soggy. Best part of the meal was the toast.Cooking area wasn't very sanitary either. Waitress was on her game though. Wouldn't recommend at all. read more

Amazing breakfast spot with delicious home cooked food. Do not pass this one up! It looks like a bit of a hole in the wall place but it is clean and the staff was great. read more

Great little local place. Service was very good and the food great! I had the Captain"s Plate with Country Fried Steak, and hubby same with the Rib Eye. The ribeye was thin/scrawny but tasty; for what you paid ($7.95), it was very good. You can't beat that price. My country fried steak was very tasty too! The hash browns and over-medium eggs were cooked perfectly. The grits bordered on bland. I added margarine which improved it. However, real butter would've been better. No jelly on table, ask for it. Ditto for such condiments as ketchup and steak sauce. Definitely a place to come eat breakfast! read more

We stayed at a BnB right across the street and it looked popular, so we tried it and were glad we did. Really nice staff, and a cheerfull retro feel. Our table had waffles and the fluffy omelets, all very satisfying. read more

Always quick and friendly service. It's clean and the food and prices are good. Lunch is good also

Fairly average food with very fast service that is friendly and table side. Prices were fair for what was expected. A nice alternative to some of the more busy breakfast/lunch options if you're looking for a time saver. read more

The place is very unclean. Even though they take the plates away, they still left opened napkins, jelly packets, and crumbs/spills everywhere from the previous diners. Seems to be like a local hot spot though. But cleanliness is a turn off to me. Prices were reasonable. But up charges were ridiculous. They would just charge the same amount as buying another side if you wanted to substitute a side. Like getting hashbrown instead of grits is $2.00 when just adding hashbrown is $2.25 while getting two. Just doesn't make sense. Service was great. Fast. Food was good. Pretty flavorful. For the cleanliness alone I wouldn't dine in, but maybe togo. read more

Good service very polite! Great food. Mostly like Waffle House but a lot more unique. I personally loved It and was satisfied. read more

I have never and will never have another omelette as DELICIOUS as the fluffy ham and cheese one they made! I mean YUMMY! It is located off the main drag and there was NO WAIT. We also tried a chocolate chip waffle that was good. I highly recommend this place for breakfast! read more

The food is your average breakfast items, and sometimes the service a bit slow, but it is still a good place for a quick breakfast. The best thing I've had there is the peanut butter waffle. The staff is usually friendly and efficient. read more

Blue Top Waffle House is Waffle House with fewer menu items. The service was ok. We were told if we weren't going to eat our grits to let them know so they wouldn't put them on our plate and be wasted. read more

Such a delicious, homey place to come eat breakfast. Everything we've tried there was delicious. The biscuits and gravy are a favorite as well as any of their waffles. Great staff, service and prices. Will definitely be coming back here while on vacation. read more

What a rip off.. sat at counter, where a guy was washing dishes 1 foot in front of me. Ordered 2 scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns, toast and coffee. 4 bites of eggs, 2 small strips of bacon, maybe a cup of hash browns, bread was barely toasted and small cheap white bread. Total was 12.46$. Not including tip. Service was good though. read more

Food wasn't too bad, but didn't like being up charged on potatoes and rye toast without being told. Total up charges for 2 omelettes with hash browns and rye toast $6.20 extra before tip. Not cool read more
