Ambiance: casual, Waffle House like, lively Service: prompt, responsive and efficient Food: only that many choices for vegetarians but they tried to accommodate the unique requests of holding off ham and bacon. Three egg omelette came piping hot and cooked to perfection. Well seasoned diced potatoes elevated the side of potatoes to a level of an entree. A tidy and modest place for breakfast! Will go back again!!! read more

This is a great pancake house. You probably will have to wait a few minutes but it's worth the weight. The pancakes are incredible and the breakfast whatever you get sausage bacon country ham or corn beef hash is absolutely amazing. This is a diner/old-fashioned style pancake house. Sherri, our waitress has been there 25 years and she was incredible!. Their air-conditioning works really well so if you're cold nature, I might want to bring a jacket or cover... healthy portions and a fair price and very popular!!!! read more

Our go place in the foothills of the gorgeous Smokey mountains. read more

This place was a random find, and very bomb. It's right at the edge of the Cherokee Native American reserve and the place has plenty of parking but nonetheless was popping when I went in. I was alone and only had to wait about 5 minutes to be seated at the bar; there was a constant supply of people getting on the waitlist. They had your standard breakfast/brunch items and in good quantity for a very reasonable price! The staff are also very friendly and clearly familiar with the locals. Overall this is a great local brunch spot clearly owned by local folks. Had a great time! read more

Peter's Pancakes and Waffles - Got the Ranch Hand Breakfast - comes with a large piece of fresh ham (QUITE salty), eggs, potatoes, and pancakes. I added blueberries :) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cherokee, North Carolina

We went because my grandson is named Peter. This is his favorite place to eat!! Parking is convenient if you find a spot! We got waited on quickly. We had a variety of foods at our table of 6. This was a birthday celebration for Peter! The pecan pancakes are great!!! Corned beef hash is like I have at home. The grits appeared to be cooked so they were not runny. Eggs over easy cooked perfectly! Waitress was so nice. And what a wonderful view out the window of the river. Definitely a must go place if you are in Cherokee. read more

I had the Western omelette (and subbed bacon for ham) and it was the bomb. The bacon was so crispy, even after being rolled up with veggies and cheese inside that omelette. The potatoes needed some salt and crisp but were otherwise ok. The orange juice was super fresh and sweet (do they squeeze it fresh? Idk but it fooled me). My boyfriend had the waffle which left a lot to be desired, it just wasn't very crispy as you would want a waffle to be. The batter was nice and sweet though. The corned beef hash was good. Our server was very friendly and the whole place had good vibes. read more

Not gonna lie... when we couldn't find parking, I just knew we were about to be waiting forever. Plot twist: we were seated immediately Prices were reasonable and the food? So good. I had the biscuit and gravy and my husband had pancakes! 10/10 would go back! read more

The food here has always been delicious but the older lady with the glasses and short sandy brown / grey hair speaks to the patrons in such a condescending and rude way that I just left and will likely never return ~ and if you look at my profile you can see I never leave negative reviews, but I make an exception when I get scolded like a kindergartner. Happy to take my business to Mabel's where they are kind and gracious. read more

Another wonderful experience here. My husband and I had visited previously and remember how good the food was so we came back. The service was good, there was a bit of a wait but it wasn't bad, we were able to go outside and enjoy the views of the river. Breakfast was great, just like grandma used to make. read more

Whenever I come to play in the WSOP poker tournaments, I schedule in time to make SURE that I have my blueberry pancakes! I've been in the restaurant industry for close to 40 years and believe me when I tell you that these pancakes could be the #1 best pancake in the country!! See you soon Peters!!! read more

Great food and friendly service great selection and large portions definitely worth the wait.

Simple, delicious, enjoyable, like going back in time and finding that treasure you want to keep forever. There was not a line, shocking but it was January! The staff is fast, thinks of everything and professional! This place doesn't have the wow effect on decor but it sure does with its food! The menu has lots of options and the blueberry pancakes melt in your mouth!! Support his local establishment and help it survive for generations after you! read more

I fully enjoyed this traditional American breakfast diner. The staff were friendly and food was served quickly. I loved the biscuits which had a very crisp outer layer and fresh. The sausage gravy could've used more sausage; that's likely just my personal preference. The pancakes were the real highlight - absolute perfection: , light, fluffy, and huge. read more

We both had the blueberry Pancakes with blueberry syrup. Huge portion and really good. Sweet waitress who checked on us often.

It's a small restaurant on the main drag. You are likely to wait a bit for a table, which is no problem as they have speakers so you can stroll by the river and still hear your name called. The food was standard breakfast fare, we enjoyed the blue mugs with the rooster . The service was quick and attentive. I would return if I'm lucky enough to visit the area again. read more

Food and service was fantastic! Highly recommended breakfast any morning or all! The waffles were very tasty!

Peter's Pancakes and Waffles might be the greatest name for a breakfast place ever. (I clearly have no bias here) When you have pancakes in your name they need to deliver, and they most certainly do here. I had the chocolate chip pancakes and absolutely loved them. Really fluffy and full of flavor. The coffee and side of home fries were good, but the star was hands-down the pancakes. If I'm ever back in the area I'll be sure to return. read more

Peter's Pancakes and Waffles - #2 Country Boy Special - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Cherokee, North Carolina

Great place ! Staff is super friendly and full of laughs. Great prices as well. If you're lucky you can sit by the window and overlook the stream that runs behind the restaurant. Food is out of this world and delicious. Drove 2 hours just to have breakfast there. So worth it read more

Good service and good food. You get a bit of a step back in time (in a good way) feeling at this restaurant, especially if you sit at the diner counter. The bacon was crispy without being burned and the eggs were cooked exactly to my request. The oatmeal is a large serving size. read more

After attempts during several previous visits, I finally got to enjoy breakfast at Peter's. I arrived early, seeing only a few regulars. The staff provided friendly service. The coffee was hot and fresh on a cold morning. Breakfast platters are served with large portions. The Country Boy Special featured pancakes, bacon, and eggs. I left the diner with a full stomach, ready for a day of training, I enjoyed my breakfast so much, I got up early and ventured back again the next morning. read more

Hometown restaurant very good food and service. We got pancakes which was enough for multiple people.

We were camped near Cherokee, and my wife picked up sausage, egg, and cheese sandwiches for breakfast. They were great! She had to wait 10-15 minutes for her order to be filled, while there was a 20-30 minute wait for a table. That tells me a lot. read more

Service was extremely fast and efficient without making you feel rushed, in fact it was the opposite, you feel like you're at home. The food is out of this world delicious! We got pancakes and biscuits and gravy and both were delectable. The second time we came back here we had the country boy breakfast with eggs and bacon and it was so great. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming at the base of the Smokies. read more

Ok so you're hungry and trying to figure out what to eat for breakfast...come here! But, there's a wait you may say...I promise it was beyond worth it. You'll get the old school diner feel when you walk in. The menus are our favorite kind...they double as a placemat! Flip it over...there's a map! The general two second review? We had an amazing breakfast with wonderful service. Everything was delicious. We will 110% come back. The specifics... Three out of the four of us got steak & eggs. This isn't the crappiest cut of meat out there for cheap this is a legit hand cut steak. Perfectly cooked and delicious! We got them with pancakes (blueberry and plain) and biscuits with gravy. Try the blueberry syrup! I got the huevos Enrrique. Amazing. The salsa, the eggs, the sausage, the peppers. It all comes together so well. Perfect start to the day. Seriously, if you're hungry just head on over and get you some good food! read more

Wonderful food, fast service, and friendly staff. The biscuit was light and fluffy, and the bacon done just right!!

It is easy to find and there is a lot of parking along front of building. There is at least one handicapped space near the door. There are additional parking spaces further down from the restaurant but even these are not too far away. All the parking is paved and walking is easy. The door is in the middle of the front of the building with the hostess stand to the right. We did have to wait a few minutes for a table but we were there at peak breakfast time. Once seated, our waitress took the drink order right away. Menus are on the tables as placemats. We asked for a couple minutes to decide what we wanted as the choices are varied and the descriptions detailed. Once we ordered we were prepared to wait due to the crowd but our food arrived in no more than five minutes. We actually thought they gave us another customer's order, but they had it right. The speed was completely unexpected and appreciated. The #7 breakfast consisted of two eggs cooked as ordered, two sausage patties that appeared to be locally sourced, two nice biscuits and a bowl of gravy. The sausage was maybe cooked a bit too much but it was not burnt. The flavor was wonderful. The biscuits were just about perfect for gravy, being soft enough to cut with a fork but robust enough to stand up to the gravy. The gravy itself was very good. I did add some pepper, but that is a personal preference. My dining partner selected the pecan pancakes. These were huge with pecans in every bite. It would be more accurate to say it was a pile of pecans with pancake batter poured around it. Adding blueberry syrup made for a wonderful taste experience. Even though the restaurant was crowded when we arrived, our food came out quickly, our server was pleasant, and we never felt rushed to clear our table. Coupled with the excellent breakfast meal, we will definitely return to try different items (or maybe just the same thing). read more

So my dude and I were in the area for a wrestling event and decided to check this place out. I got the All American meal, I enjoyed the corn beef hash, the pancakes were slightly burnt but fluffy and tasty. Also, I ordered a side of grits which were very bland. My dude order the steak and eggs which was all very bland but the steak was tender just tasteless. We ordered out which everyone was very nice and prompt at getting our order. I would probably give them another shot with my spices in my purse to give it a little flavor. read more

Delicious!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. There was a wait to be seated but the staff were kind and efficient getting everyone served. We definitely will be going back. read more

These 5 star reviews are either fake, or from people who do not know what a good breakfast is. The food is pre-cooked and served cold, the coffee wasn't even good. The only good thing about this place was our waitress and the host at the front that sat us. read more
