    Outstanding spot for breakfast in Okeechobee. Service is fast and friendly. Food is incredible. Great biscuits, sausage gravy was perfectly seasoned and the right amount of gravy-ness, eggs, bacon and sausage were excellent. If you like crispy hash browns, just take them as is. I ordered "crispy", I was impressed with the cook's ability to make a single hash brown crisp that you could pick up like and eat like an elephant ear... Very clean- lots of locals and fishermen, try it now!!!

    Full order of biscuits and gravy.

    Right when you walked in your greeted by the hostess with a smile. Was driving through Okeechobee County on an early Saturday morning and have heard good things from others who have eaten here. Definitely mom and Pop diner vibe. We set it off with a full order of biscuits and gravy. Biscuits and gravy was to die for highly recommend. The gravy itself can just be eaten without a biscuit. The waitress was speedy Gonzalez and constantly checked on you to make sure you were OK. My fiancé got the toad breakfast. He said it was a phenomenal sandwich.

    I came by around 8am on a Saturday. The place was busy but still had room. Parking is very easy with a large lot. I heard about there biscuits & gravy and it's true. There very good. Light music playing in the back ground and normal sounds of a cafe. The employees were all friendly and seemed to get along with each other. Is return again

    Pogesy's is such an awesome breakfast spot in Florida and more! It's delicious all the way around! I always go for the specialty Ruben omelette I've yet to find one anywhere else that's as good as here. The service is usually spot on. It can be a very crowded spot especially in the winter with all the snow birds visiting in the winter time. Inside is very accommodating. They have a huge area to sit and enjoy yourself. If you are in this area of Florida I highly recommend you stopping in and having either breakfast or lunch they have a great combo either way.

    My husband and I recently did a road trip and stopped here for lunch. This is truly a hidden gem. It was packed but the service was quick so we really just waited 15 min to be seated. Our server was very sweet. It was decorated with pictures of the everglades and a gator by the cashier. Very casual family owned diner. We shared the biscuits and gravy and they were mouthwatering good! My husband the had steak and gravy which he liked. I tried their fried chicken sandwich and it was fried to perfection. A definite must try!

    Pogey's is a down-to-earth family restaurant that if you know where to look on Parrot Avenue, you will find a good meal for a decent price and not leave hungry. We were in town for a wedding. And before we returned back to South Florida, we found this spot for Sunday breakfast. With the wait for tables a few parties deep, we were fortunate to find a couple of stools at the counter that we could sit immediately. After ordering iced coffee, I enjoyed the sausage gravy and biscuits platter while my wife had the Reuben omelette. Both her and I enjoyed our meal, with my ordering an extra side of bacon because bacon. The sausage gravy was solid with the biscuits, hash browns, and eggs over medium. The restaurant has a notable fishing motif with the wall behind the front counter having a large mural of the Pogey family on a fishing boat in the Everglades. Definitely a lot of local and family vibes for this eatery that will give you a good meal if you are passing through or staying the night.

    Looking for a delicious no frills breakfast? Look no further. Grabbed the country fried steak and eggs. The steak was so tender, and biscuits were light and fluffy . Everything else was cooked perfectly. It was so good I went back the following day. The service was great also. Check out this local eatery when you're in town. They are only open for breakfast and lunch.

    Good southern food. 5 stars for the dinner/dive that it is. Portions are good sized. Food delicious. Place was clean but dated.

    One of the best food services around. Our waitress was fast friendly and nice. and the food tasted good and I barely had to wait for it. I was impressed with this place. The Biscuits and Gravy tasted good. The gravy was good and homemade. We are the whole thing fast. I liked the flavors. The Shevulla was like a skillet without the skillet part but inside a fried tortilla bowl instead. I had some options with this dish. I chose tater tots and bacon as my protein and potatoes. This was a good size dish and tasted good. I especially liked the fried tortilla. It was good and crunchy. I couldn't stop eating it. This restaurant is very good for breakfast. I liked that it had a big selection of breakfast items and good combinations. I was glad that we checked this place out.

    A friendly family restaurant! We felt very welcomed immediately upon entering. The staff was very nice and honestly very quick. They had so many options on their menu it was hard to choose. I went with scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, hash browns, and biscuits. Couldn't have been happier as it was exactly what I was craving. They even had my favorite Smucker's jam varieties. My boyfriend ordered the Ruben omelette and he was in heaven. It was so good! A fun fishing themed restaurant for the whole family to enjoy. I love their mugs since they have fun ones with fish and gators! Can't wait to try more options!

    What a fun experience! I was driving the Martin County scenic route and got hungry. I was in the…read moremiddle of nowhere, so I turned to yelp to find something to eat nearby. Within 15 minutes. I was pulling into the Okeechobee livestock market restaurant. My head started spinning because I was the only car in the parking lot! They were just trucks and trailers and cattlemen. After reading Dave O's review, I dared myself to go in and had a blast watching the auction while my burger was being cooked. It was hard to eat the burger while hearing the hoofs of cows underneath and remembering the mooing when I pulled up. The burger was good and the service was great. The experience was off the charts. Next time I have to have one of those huge sweet teas everyone was drinking.

    Been here many times over my lifetime. I remember the first time when I was very young watching the…read moreactual auction going on. It's very different now..."updated". The food area is a lot smaller, but it's very clean and definitely do not smell the auction area right out the doors. The burgers are super thick and come with everything I couldn't finish mine. You have several things you can have as the side including fries, tater tots, sweet potato fries. Tea is great too! I will warn you what I do not see on other people's posts is it is CASH ONLY. My husband and I were in the car scrambling to see if we had enough before we came in. I had forgotten all about it. Both with a cheeseburger and the one side with waters was $27 and change. So make sure you bring cash. Other than that it's really good but not worth giving a lower rating.
