    We enjoy checking out local pancake houses. This one was very welcoming. The staff was super friendly and the place was packed so that means good food! We ordered the Big Southern breakfast which came with pancakes, scrambled eggs (our choice) bacon, sausage, Virginia ham, biscuits (it was supposed to be one but since we split it, they gave us two) and fried apples which were awesome on the pancakes. I'm not sure how one person would eat all that, but hubby and I split it and had some fresh coffee that was served in individual containers with options for flavored or regular creamers. For traditional food establishment, they were high tech. Jennifer was able to put in our order at the table and we paid right there too. We had ordered the meal with the waffle, but I think it went to the table next to us. They offered to bring one out but what we had was already plenty, plus we got extra biscuits, so all good. Quick and delicious meal.

    Walked through the door and was greeted by a very nice host. She welcomed us in with a big smile. She seated us and in a minute out server came by. He as well was very welcoming. I give this four stars based on the service, brightness and cleanliness. The food was good. Nothing above the average but not below. I really enjoyed the apples with my breakfast. That was a nice option. The ham was small portion however good and not overly salty. The grits were homemade. Definitely a great option for breakfast while visiting Williamsburg.

    I always enjoy breakfast at Southern Pancake. The friendly staff and great atmosphere, make for an enjoyable experience. The crispy bacon and soft scrambled eggs are some of my favorite. They have a wide variety of menu items. There's something to please everyone appetite.

    My family stopped at the Southern Pancake House on a Sunday morning in early October. We arrived around 7:45 AM so there was no line and only a couple tables were being used. After being promptly seated, our waitress came over for our orders. My youngest son had pancakes (good sized), my oldest son had pancakes with strawberries on them and a side of bacon), and my wife had an omelette. I had scrambled eggs with a homemade biscuit, delicious home fries and sausage that was a little dry. I enjoyed our breakfast but would like to try some of the other pancake houses around Williamsburg before I return to this one. Certainly a strong option if you eat here.

    Centralized location that isn't far from the outlets in Williamsburg. Very accommodating to how many kids we had and the space we needed, space is limited. The French toast and sausage were both winners. The waffle had no butter and they didn't come back for us to ask for some. Luckily my two year old just picked it up and ate it like a sandwich. Decor is older and a bit dated. Heads up, the items on the menu on à la carte can be built for cheaper than the listed meals. Overall, the food was good and the people were kind.

    Menu. This one had a lot of syrup droplets on the inside.

    Went here for the first time with my family over the weekend. In my opinion there were pros and cons. Pros: The staff were very friendly and helpful! I had called ahead to see if they take reservations and was kindly told they don't and that there wasn't a wait-time at the time I called. When we arrived we were greeted with a smile by Dottie and quickly seated. She was patient as we decided what to order. Once we did place our orders, the food was ready fairly quickly. My husband and dad enjoyed their meals! Cons: I was expecting a bit more flavor-wise from the pancakes (I ordered a plain 3-stack), and was disappointed at the small quantity of home fries I ordered for the price ($3.50 for about 4 forkfuls) -- although the home fries were tasty. There were some minor cleanliness issues for me like one of the menus we received having a bunch of syrup droplets on the inside, and the vents needing a good dusting.

    The portions were big and food was inexpensive! Lots of seating, just ask and you can be seated where you like. The menu is large and you can create your own meal essentially (eggs, with pancakes or a waffle etc). The waiter was very nice and attentive. Also, the decorations were a great touch to the restaurant. The only critique is that part of our order was missing, requiring us to ask for it again. Other than this, it was a great time.

    Greek Omelette
    Hannah C.

    Your typical American breakfast :) Everything was delicious! Greek omelette was nice and light along with a hot tea. The server was very kind, checked up on us consistently, made sure we received all items. Southern kindness was very present! Plenty of parking, tables well spaced out, cozy vibes inside. If I'm in Williamsburg again, would visit here for brunch again!

    Visited this establishment in June 2025 for breakfast & was impressed from the start: A warm friendly greeting from a lovely woman at the hostess/cashier station to the delicious food served by an attentive, very pleasant gentleman (in the truest sense of the word) named Lamont. The food was cooked exactly as ordered & very good. Portion size was plentiful. I have a favorite pancake house I visit when in PA that I hold others to that standard. Shhhh, Southern Pancake at least is in equal standing & I dare say may have beat the PA one! Lamont kept my water glass filled at all times, not an easy feat if you ever dined with me LOL, & the others in our party were never down to the last sip of coffee. That sweet cashier sent us on our way laughing & smiling after chatting with us & wished us well. I forget to ask her name to acknowledge her personally here. Hats off to Lamont, the wonderful hostess/cashier & the chef! We will definitely be back on our next visit to Williamsburg!

    We visited with family during our trip to Williamsburg and had an outstanding breakfast experience. The food was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The pancakes were fluffy and flavorful, the eggs and home fries were cooked perfectly, and the omelet was loaded with ingredients and tasted amazing. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a great breakfast spot in Williamsburg, Southern Pancake and Waffle House is definitely worth the visit. We will be back!

Let me start off by saying the service and ambiance were amazing. It was like a 90s retro dinner theme and we got our food hot in less than 10 minutes. We both ordered the Cinna-Swirl Pancake and when I sya it melts in your mouth i mean it. it also has a nice soft fluffy interior and a slightly crunchy crust outside. I never had a pancake like this, but it was wonderful. We also got the steak and cheese with fries. For a pancake place it was suprisingly really good, im not gonna say it was the best i ever had but it was definitely filling and tasty as well.

Let's see how the visit turned out. The diner was half packed but staff were busy. The decor was pretty cool and the restaurant was clean. Not bad at all. After we got seated, we were ready to order within minutes. Both of us ordered the country fried steak meal with hash browns and eggs (mine was scrambled and Sophia's was fried hard) along with coffee. It was delicious and filling. The gravy was just the right amount and the amount of food was just enough. It could've used some seasoning, but luckily we had salt and pepper at our table to add. Truly a meal to start our Friday. This spot will definitely be a repeat for us down the road. Till next time :)

I also won gift certificates for Selden Market, and they were burning a hole in my mind. So early on Sunday morning, my partner and I trek from VA Beach to Downtown Norfolk. After a few phone calls to their owner, I could use my gift certificate. We ordered the classic chicken and waffle for my partner (without Captain Crunch or powdered sugar), and since I was in the mood for sweet and savory - I ordered the Grandma waffle. The Grandma waffle is a full-size waffle featuring scrambled eggs, breaded chicken, strawberries, blueberries, and powdered sugar. To drink, my partner grabbed a coffee, and since I firmly believed in brunch, I grabbed a mimosa. Our drinks were the second best part of our dining experience (the first was the customer service). The waffles were lackluster. The chicken and waffle only feature the equivalent of one chicken tender split into four pieces. I wished I had photo evidence, but my partner said, 'Nope, don't photograph this. ' My waffle was better. The strawberries, blueberries, and powdered sugar helped compensate for the lack of sweetness in the waffle. My waffle was also filler since I had more toppings, but another chicken tender would be friendly.
