Had this place for breakfast yesterday and it was really good! The hash browns were the best, I love how they're crispy on the outside and softer on the inside. The service was great, and this place was packed. Everything we got came out hot and pretty quick. Definitely a must try. read more

I stopped by Mattie's Pancake House today 2/15/2026 while passing through, and honestly, it turned out to be one of those memorable roadside gems you're so glad you didn't miss. The place was super busy when I arrived there were people waiting outside, which is always a good sign but since I was dining solo, I got seated right away with no wait at all. The atmosphere inside is warm, cozy, and welcoming, with really cool décor featuring cars and car photos that give the restaurant personality and a fun, nostalgic vibe. It feels comfortable rather than fancy, the kind of place where you can relax, sip your coffee, and enjoy your food without feeling rushed. I ordered the shrimp and Swiss cheese omelette with jalapeño, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked. The portion was generous, and it came out piping hot and surprisingly fast considering how busy they were. The coffee was amazing too rich, fresh, and exactly what you want with a hearty breakfast. What really stood out was the service. The servers were attentive, friendly, and on top of everything despite the crowd. They made sure coffee stayed filled, checked in at the right moments, and kept things moving smoothly without making it feel rushed or chaotic. Another big plus: the prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes. It's rare to find a place that balances great food, fast service, cozy ambiance, and affordability this well. Overall, I'd easily rate it around 4.5 stars. If you're driving along Highway 101 or anywhere near Brookings, this spot is absolutely worth the stop. It's busy for a reason great food, great vibe, and great service all in one place. read more

Really good breakfast. They have a potato dish out of this world. Their French toast is delicious, the one thing that I didn't like was that I asked for maple syrup and they gave me syrup. And I put it on some of my food. And it was not maple syrup. It was corn syrup. Don't call it maple syrup. Just call it syrup or tell people it's not maple syrup. It's just colored corn syrup. read more

Food was delicious. It was busy so we had to wait a few minutes but it was worth it ! Great hash browns and the Hollandaise for the eggs Benedict was fresh homemade not from a packet. Great stop read more

We will NEVER eat here again. The sausage in the gravy was very bad. I only ate a bite of the sausage in my gravy and my stomach hurt so incredibly bad and I ended up with diarrhea, my husband also had gravy on his food, he was so hungry he didn't notice, until later that he had a bad stomach ache and started burping sulfur stuff for 2 days, it was absolutely awful! The lil pizzas the kids ordered were worse than eating cardboard with tomato paste on them. Never returning! read more

This morning. They gave us a table with no elbow room by the bathroom when there were several empty tables by the front. Just asked hey, is there another table?, and the waitress answered (no) rudely. Requested a half order of eggs Benedict, got a full order. They charged $1 more for each item than what the menu said. Won't be back. read more

Such good food and the workers were so sweet! Stopped here on our way home from our anniversary trip for breakfast before the long drive, and was met by amazing food and stellar service. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, and the French toast was terrific! Big portions as well. Highly recommend read more

Not celiac safe. To avoid gluten I ordered a cottage cheese and fruit. The cottage cheese came out with some sort of spice. I asked what was in the cottage cheese and the waitress told me there is nothing on it. She offered to have it remade. I accepted the offer and it came back with a hair in it! The fruit also tasted off. My bottled V8 was the only thing I would eat from here. read more

Mattie's was a bit of a confusing experience. First we were trying to figure out whether or not they were open. Google and Mattie's website both showed that they opened later in the day at 11:30 however yelp showered different hours. When we called to confirm, someone answered the phone and it was clear there were diners chatting in the background but they told us they were closed. Confused, we called back a few minutes later and were told they were open. We drove there and were sat immediately. Drink options pretty limited but their coffee was pretty good. The tables were very close together and when we told the server we needed a second to decide she came back less than a minute later and it felt like we were rushed. The food was good but not great. A couple of the sides came in correctly as well. I was hoping for more of a breakfast or brunch atmosphere but instead it felt a little more designed for people passing through town looking for a really quick breakfast bite. read more

Had breakfast at Mattie's Pancake House and ordered the Swedish crepes along with a classic plate of bacon, eggs, and hash browns. Everything came out hot and clearly made with care. The Swedish crepes were thin and tender, filled with lingonberry jam and topped with a light dusting of powdered sugar. Sweet but not overly rich. The bacon and eggs were cooked exactly as requested, and the hash browns had that crisp golden edge with a soft center that's harder to find than you'd think. Service was warm and attentive without being over the top. Our server checked in just enough and made sure coffee stayed filled. It felt like the kind of place where regulars are known by name. The space itself is cozy, with a classic small-town diner atmosphere. Comfortable booths, a few counter seats, and a steady flow of locals and travelers passing through. It's not flashy, but that's part of its charm. Mattie's delivers the kind of breakfast that feels familiar in the best way. Unpretentious, well-executed, and worth the stop if you're in the area. read more

Love this restaurant. EXCELLENT pancakes! We hit it every time we are in Brookings!! I would recommend you give it a try.

The staff were outgoing, friendly and willing to accomodate. The food was well portioned and delicious. I love the classic car vibes!

The food was mid, the place is a bit overhyped for sure. It's nothing special. The service was great though.

Wasn't impressed. I got the corned beef hash breakfast plate. I ordered my side of bacon well-done BUT they made the entire order overly well-done. I picked through it, but left 90% of it behind. The waitress was nice, and asked if I wanted a box. I said no, it's too over cooked, if I didn't know what I ordered I would have never guessed what was under all this charcoal. While she did agree and even said she noticed that when she brought it out, she chalked it up to a new cook. I didn't ask for a refund, and she didn't offer one. But in the end she did offer to send it back and make me a new one, but we were already paying our bill and ready to leave. Everyone in our group of 8 had finished eating too. It was just time to go. No hard feelings, I just won't go back. read more

Huge servings! I wish I'd split with my husband. It's a little pricey for a diner, but the servings justify it. It's on the heavy side, lots of butter, anything with cheese has a lot of it, sausage is the real deal. The butter was delicious though, very freshly churned seeming. Everything tasted good, but I ordered over easy and got sunny side up eggs and the hash browns were a bit over done, so I took a star for that. In general, I highly recommend just order accordingly. If I went back I'd ask for light cheese and probably just have my eggs scrambled. I'd also split something if someone was willing. The pancakes were wonderful. Fluffy, and that creamy butter was perfection on them. read more

I've been going to Mattie's for almost 20 years when I'm in the area. At one time it was great. Then got to be average. Today was not good. Omelet was eggs overcooked, cooked 1/8" thick then veggies wrapped in it. Charged $2. Extra for cheese on it. My toast was cooked so dry it was like eating a dry cracker. Fruit instead of potatoes was maybe 6 grapes and 4 pieces of pineapple. Since Blue Water Cafeclosed not many options I'll drive to Crescent city or Gold Beach next trip. read more

I ate at this place on 9/18/25 when I was in town for business. I went based on reviews, and the fact that they were open early. GREAT choice! I had the eggs benedict, and a single pancake. Holy guacamole was that a lot of food! The hollandaise on the eggs was awesome, eggs done to perfection, and the red potatoes were crisp and tasty. Be warned, the pancake had the diameter of a basketball- it was huge! I think this breakfast could have fed two people! Coffee was great, service was friendly and attentive, and the food was superb. Definitely coming back here for breakfast on my next business trip! read more

Mattie's Pancake House is the best breakfast place in this area . Pancakes are delicious! Omelettes are amazing . The steak and eggs are great. We weren't expecting a steak like that! Perfectly cooked. You will see the cooks back there cooking away! Shout out to Taylor who used to be a waitress. You will see her smiling back there and cooking away! She is an amazing cook! The cooks back there have it down! From Crescent City to Coos Bay. And from Crescent City to Grants Pass! Don't pass it by thinking you will find better. You won't. The new owners are friendly and kind and we look forward to seeing them. The lady at the register is sweet and always has a smile. Even when phone is ringing the beepers are going off. They all make you feel welcome! They kept everything the same! It's consistently good! It's always hot! The prices are good! They have great coffee and big cups! (not tea cups) If you drink coffee you know what I mean! They keep them filled. It's a small cute place . Yes there is a wait most days. But it's worth the wait! The atmosphere is happy even when they're extremely busy! That speaks loudly to me. They have great specials on the board. You will be glad you didn't drive by! I would give them a 10 star read more

My sister and two nieces and I were visiting from Houston. We decided to stop in here for breakfast. There was a line, but it was not too bad. They did give us a pager so we could at least walk outside or go sit in our car. Everything we saw that came out of the kitchen looked incredible! We had the pancakes and they were out of this world! Service was fantastic ! read more

The food and service was great! Hope to stop by again next year on my way through Brookings.

Great food! We ordered for take out and the food was great. Great tasting and big portions, definitely a great price for what you get.

I give this 2 stars and that's only because I like vintage GM vehicles. This place is festooned with car art and model cars, which distracted me from the dining experience. If you like Dennys or a 2am Waffle House vibe, you'll feel right at home with the food and service. The server threw our food on the table, clearly upset. All I did was sit down with my wife and kids, we are nice, friendly people. No need to behave so rudely. If you've got a hankering for some short order food and complimentary short-tempered waitstaff, hit this place up asap. Pity the little old lady at the cash register was the only one kind to us. read more

Great food but be prepared for a wait. It's always crowded. People are great. Love the ambiance.

IF YOU'RE HISPANIC DON'T BOTHER. Came here with 3 friends, we are all Hispanic btw. Waited and waited was told 20 mins.. 45 mins passed two white families came in and got seated immediately. I walked up to ask about the waiting time she said another couple more mins but oh wait another white couple walks in and gets seated immediately and then it hit me. I couldn't believe this would happen to me or my friends honestly, we left in shock. Ended up picking up sandwiches from across the street.....Do better...... read more

Great place for breakfast before going to play golf. Love the crepes with lingonberry butter

Should have read the reviews before visiting this place. Seems as though the location has changed ownerships and service / food quality is not the same. We were seated on the booth facing the kitchen and so we watched as the kitchen placed the "ready" food on the counter for the waitresses. Was immediately turned off when I saw one of the waitresses pick off some onion rings from the plate she had just received from the kitchen. She placed it on a small dish she had to her side and proceeded to take that same plate to the corresponding table. When she returned, she ate the onion ring she had taken off. At this point I had already placed my order, a cheeseburger with fries. When my order was ready, I watched as the waitress grabbed my plate and removed a good amount of fries for herself (her back was turned to me, she must have thought I couldn't see). She handed me my plate and I watched as she proceeded to go back to the fries she had just taken and season them with something. She then stuffed some in her mouth before continuing to work. You truly never know how your food is handled until you witness it! read more

Highly recommend the homemade chili and french toast. Great breakfast, brunch and lunch place! It's been 4 years since we added this restaurant to our must visit list every time we're in town. Not in a bad way but a room for improvement would be nice. Sometimes the food isn't made in a consistent way, sometimes pancakes are burnt at the bottom, potatoes are half cooked, eggs aren't served as how you requested; maybe depending on the person in charge of cooking, food comes out different each visit. But, still good nonetheless and the servings are easily shareable for a decent price. This place is always packed during the weekend, enjoyed by locals and travelers alike. It gets crowded and the wait time varies but the servers are nice ladies, they always accommodate to their customers. read more

Excellent food and huge portions. It gets crowded with a wait extending outdoors, so be sure to arrive early.
