    shrimp and grits

    Place is Amazing ! Service , food ! Cut the little atmosphere. And the employees are wearing pajamas.. Cute place

    Blueberry pancake margarita
    Amanda D.

    Solid 4 stars. I really appreciated the fact that the menu had a list of local business where they got ingredients. There was a lot of local crossover, which was exciting. I had the buttermilk stack with sausage links and a blueberry pancake margarita. I feel like I won the drink choice competition (that my friends didn't even know we were in). The drink was delicious, the pancakes were solid and there was more than enough butter given to us. Service was ok. Super friendly but a bit too much for me. Would definitely recommend this stop to others in the area.

    Caramel macchiato, iced

    Caramel macchiato, iced 9/10 Pretty good. Def needs more caramel for my liking. Buckeye coffee 10/10 Good flavor. Idaho Potato pancakes 10/10 Really good. I liked the little onion chunks in there. Probably one of the best potato pancakes we've ever had. Classic Eggs Benedict 7/10 Gross Hollandaise, it's like a cheesy bearnaise sauce from a packet, not actually Hollandaise. Eggs cooked great, not poached, but over medium, which I liked a lot. Grilled Yukon Gold Home fries 9/10 Cooked well, soft. I guess they coulda been a little crispier. Homemade Corned beef hash 9/10 Definitely homemade, tastes much better than the can. Needed a little more potatoes, and they could have been diced a little smaller. Daisyfield smoked ham & eggs 8/10 Comes with a ton of food. Ordered eggs over medium, they came more over hard. Ham was good. Pancakes were good. Rye toast was good. Chocolate chip pancakes 7/10 Kids said there was too many chocolate chips in them.

    On our weekend trip to see friends at go to Cedar Point, we made a stop at this very fun and delicious spot. We'd absolutely come back again. We tried the pancakes (of course), steak and eggs, turkey sausage, home fries, sourdough toast, and omelettes among the four of us. We also enjoyed French press coffee, the blueberry pancake margarita, a blackberry mimosa, and a yummy coffee drink with bourbon that had a cute, long name I don't remember. Our server Adrianna was very attentive and helpful, and even gave us great tips on parking and rides at Cedar Point. We really love the way their menu highlights other local businesses. Love the mutual community support! Overall, service was great and the food was delicious. If we come back to town, we'll see you again!

    Chicken Biscuit bowl

    Heard nothing but good reviews about this place so decided to check it out before leaving town. The wait was 1.5 hrs and it really did take that long. We had a big party and said first available table we'll take. While we waited we were able to be outside and enjoy corn hole, a frisbee game as well as play with chalk. They also have a coffee cart outside to enjoy while waiting. Finally got seated and we ended up being split between two tables and a booth, but that was fine. It was worth the wait! Everyone loved their food. The kids ate everything up. All the food was cooked to perfection, even the bacon was nice and crispy, not half cooked like other places. A couple people ordered the cinnamon swirl cakes and they were not overly sweet, just enough and I'd get them next time. My chicken biscuit bowl could've had more chicken, but it was filling! I tried to eat the whole thing but it's a lot. Others ordered the burger with the waffles for the buns and flavorful and perfect pairings. They are busy and the food took a while but it's worth it.

    I had a fabulous experience at Sandusky Bay Pancake House for breakfast. The menu is HUGE and with it being so large it is a bit overwhelming however you are going to find multiple things that you want to try/order which is awesome. The place is so cutely decorated, and the staff is very friendly. We went on a Sunday morning and it was very packed. Outside they had a small cart offering their specialty coffees and tons of people ordered while they were waiting for their table. This was a nice addition and helped ease our wait. Just know they do not take reservations even with large parties as we were but they handled our large amount with ease and got us in as quickly as they could. All the food was really good and fresh. They use locally sourced products, and you can definitely tell by the quality. All of the meats were really good from the ham to the sausage to the corned beef. It all was very flavorful and cooked to perfection. The pancakes were SO good and buttery. I am not a big pancake eater but these were awesome! The star of the show is definitely the cooker biscuits! If you do not get them with your meal definitely be sure to order them as a side. You do not want to miss out on them. I wish they offered a homemade jam rather than the packets on the table but nonetheless everything was amazing. They also offered lots of specialty options from peach cobbler French toast, to tons of different eggs benedicts and fun options. If you have not been in here, you definitely have got to check it out. The value is good for the amount of food you get, especially with them using places that are local. I love supporting places like this! I cannot wait to be back and try so many more things.

    This place was Awesome. Specialty food items were plentiful. Their drink menu was very creative, the service was very polite, informative and on point. The ambiance was very cool. They have a VW van (minuter made) as a hostess stand. We'll come back again.

    Did someone say vegan options?! Yes, this amazing pancake house offers vegan pancakes and yes, not just plain Jane pancakes, but they also offer cinnamon pancakes. My family and I truly enjoyed picking up a takeout order from this establishment. One thing I observed when I entered as folks were waiting for seating, they had a drinks truck outside with different morning beverages including coffee, and different teas. I like this as it offers folks a delicious drink as they wait to be seated. Overall, guess what Sandusky there's vegan breakfast options right around the corner check it out.

    Chicken & waffles

    It was only a 10 minute wait when we arrived around 10ish on a Saturday morning. They took your name and your phone number that way once the table was ready they sent a text. Everyone was extremely friendly, the service and food was amazing We will definitely be back. A huge thank you to our server Shannon she was on top of everything and very knowledgeable!

    This is everything we got on the whole table

They will only seat complete parties but the wait wasn't too bad on a Saturday afternoon. Our server was so nice and explained the menu to us after we told her it was our first time visiting. The waffles are Belgian liege waffles, which are a little smaller with chunks of pearl sugar. Everything on the menu did sound pretty good, but I wasn't super hungry so I ended up just getting a bunch of sides from the a la carte menu: dressed greens, a side of bacon, and avocado. Nate got one of the featured items - a spicy chicken and waffle combo. I also tried the carrot juice cocktail which was strong! Our food came out quickly and everything looked really good. I loved the high quality thick cut bacon. I did laugh at the side of avocado - $4 for 3 slices, but it was fresh! If I lived in the area this would be a go-to spot for me.

Unfortunately it was cold and rainy so we couldn't enjoy the outdoor waterpark, but that didn't matter to the kids, who marveled at the towering water slides and play areas. The whole place was very clean, nothing like Great Wolf Lodge. Customer service was great everywhere we went. Like any theme park these days, EVERYTHING is monetized, and everything is VERY expensive. Nothing is complimentary, and there's no breakfast or fresh coffee in the morning for free. The room itself was... fine. We got a suite so the size was nice and the beds were clean and comfy, but the bathroom is bizarre. First, there is no fan in the toilet area. HUGE no-no and seems like an easy fix. Second, the sink is outside of the bathroom. I can see how if you have multiple people getting ready this could speed things up, but without a fan blocking some of the, ahem, noise, it makes things supremely awkward. The rooms could use a makeover/upgrade, but the facility overall is quite nice and huge.

We contacted resort staff three separate times with serious concerns during our stay and saw no action taken--only empty apologies. That lack of response was extremely frustrating and made it feel like guest experience was not a priority. Going back to the room for a break didn't help. Our room faced a solid wall, did not have a fireplace as advertised, and we dealt with constant loud door slamming and wall pounding from nearby cleaning staff. It was not relaxing and made it difficult to rest. The conditions in the waterpark were also unacceptable. The lines for the water slides smelled strongly of urine, as if people were urinating while standing in line, which was extremely unpleasant and unhygienic. The wave pool was especially concerning. Chunks of concrete were breaking off the bottom of the pool, and I cut my foot on one of these pieces, about the size of a penny. There was concrete grit throughout the water, which was very unsafe - I gave chunks to the staff to emphasize my concerns. On top of all of this, everything was freezing cold. The wave pool water was freezing, the slide water was freezing, and the hot tubs were not hot at all despite hour-long wait lines with 40+ people. Even the indoor temperature felt cold. For the cost of this stay, none of this was acceptable. Overall, this experience was not worth what we paid and fell far below expectations.

Our server, Christina, was delightful and ensured we had everything we needed, but there was a sense of urgency to finish our meal as the restaurant was closing at 2 pm. We ended up leaving around 2:20 pm, about 20 minutes past closing time. The food was enjoyable, the restaurant & bathrooms were clean, and both the host and servers were friendly. I would recommend arriving at least an hour before closing time to fully enjoy your meal. We had 3 orders of shrimp & grits, 1 order of buttermilk pancakes with sausage and cheese eggs & 3 orders from the kids menu.
