    Now THAT was a breakfast. Totally get why they've been in business for so long. The homemade…read moresausage patties were stellar. The pancakes were great, my banana pancakes had a lot of banana. They are hearty pancakes! AND you get toast with an egg combo, so our little 2 top was swimming in delicious breakfast food. The coffee was a perfect diner blend, served with a little mini pitcher of cream which felt like a nice touch, as did the serving apple butter and jelly in a little dish. There was a wait on a Saturday morning but it wasn't terrible, like 45 minutes. When we got in the staff were working their tails off and our server was amazing. It's a small establishment and a little loud, but don't let that stop you from having an amazing breakfast.

    I'm not a fan of pancakes or sweets so I'm sure the reviews are for those. I did taste the apple…read morebutter it was good. This is NOT southern breakfast.. might be better for northerners to eat an egg breakfast here. I had the scrambled eggs and onions which was cooked well and buttery. Very good! No potatoes were a bummer. Sausage was pretty hard and dry. Bacon looked much better. I'm appreciative this place was open. Why so many places are closed in Hot Springs mid-week is baffling to me. I'll be back here next time the service was fantastic!

    I'm seriously disappointed this place is closed during the week! On Wednesday and Thursday??? This…read moremakes zero sense. I like this place wayyy more than the pancake place across the street. No potatoes over there plus I'm not a pancake fan (sugar)... so the eggs bacon sausage are better here... get extra crispy hash browns! I was sad to not have breakfast here on my last day in Hot Springs!

    I genuinely thought I was being pranked. It felt less like a family restaurant & more like I had…read moreaccidentally walked into Dick's Last Resort. My first interaction with the hostess was a pointed finger towards the back of the restaurant while she stated "the booth in the back". A little shocked that was all that she was going to say, I lead my group to the back of the restaurant hoping I was guiding them to where the hostess had intended on us sitting. Another incident occurred when someone in our party who was sitting in the middle of the booth asked the server for hot sauce, the response was mumbled under her breath as she walked away "There's a shelf over there." I understand if it's a self service hot sauce bar, but there are about a million more hospitable ways to communicate that. I obviously got up & grabbed it bec that seemed like a better solution than making our entire table climb out of the booth. Not to mention a cockroach casually strolled around our booth. We told our server, no apology, no concern, nothing. Ironically, the food itself was fine. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed it. After we left, we were walking around the strip talking about the experience when multiple shop owners told us this restaurant has a reputation for service like that & said we should have gone to the Famous Pancake House instead. So here's my warning to other travelers, if you're looking for breakfast with friendly service, I'd probably keep walking. If you're looking for an unintentional interactive experience where you will wonder whether you're on a hidden camera prank show... this might be the place...

For us it took about an hour to get our food, after watching 4 tables that came later than us get food much sooner - most were done eating and left as we got our started with our food. Our waitress had to go back 3 times to try to get our food. Eventually, my husband had to talk to someone else too to get it. I saw another table (again arrived after us) get the wrong order at least 3 times going back and forth to get it right, and we still weren't served yet. Tbh I was about to leave, but we did get our food eventually. I could hear one man complaining about running out of product, new staff not being able to make drinks, and other complaints. He spent a lot of time at the bar and talking with one customer, complaining about things. He then told that customer he'd call him later about "predicamens" and problems he was having. Not sure if he was the owner or manager, but odd to hear in a room full of customers. Then I heard profanity from a male voice in the back referring to someone as a "jack a**". Only 2 people were really helping us. Our waitress who was super spread thin and a nice lady at the bar. The other servers and staff ignored our table. Service was so bad, that a table of six who came in towards the end of our stay literally never got service at all and left after about 10 to 15 minutes. Our server and the lady at the bar were very apologetic about the wait and were friendly. They gave us some extra food for free to try to help, knowing we'd been there for so long. Ambience is a cute ocean/lake theme and the food was good - really solid bennedict and very good chocolate chip pancakes. The home fries and grits were also good and I thought the sausage balls were a cool way to do that part of the dish. However, the service issues are in serious need of repair.

    literally one of the best breakfast places I've ever been to! The Crab Benedict is the BEST people…read moreHAVE to try it! The waiters were really nice, quick service, and the walls had cute windows painted on it! I would 10/10 recommend!
