Loved this place! My boys and I had lots of fun cooking up our meals. Highly recommend for families. You couldn't ask for a better staff. So helpful and kind. Service was fast and the food was good. This is basic breakfast fare but they offer gluten free options. My boys loved their regular and wheat pancakes which they proceeded to fill up with blueberries and chocolate chips. I had eggs, hash browns and sausage with spinach and artichoke hearts which I cooked up to my liking. read more

Been coming to the Pfunky Griddle for more than 20 years. Now I'm bringing my grandkids and they love making their own pancakes. Lots of toppings options resulted in some very creative results! There are two options unleashed white and five grain. I love the 5 grain but the grandkids stick with white. You can get both and they will keep bringing the batter! Fun place with the kids! read more

I love it here so much I want to come back every weekend! It's such a homey and cozy vibe. The topping options are great for the pancakes & the batter is so so good. I will say the hashbrowns don't have much flavor, but the biscuits are always good. The staff is really kind here as well! Would definitely come back but come earlier in the day since the wait can get long. Overall a cool experience and a fun meal! read more

We have driven by here many times on our way to the Escape Game. There was a one hour wait so we came back about 20 minutes before closing. What an experience! I brought my three adult kids and friends. The make it yourself pancakes and French toast were amazing. Autumn, our server was perfect. I cannot recommend this place enough. I am a picky diner and this place delivers on food and experience and service. read more

The food is always so fun. With older kids, it is interactive and they can customize their own pancakes so they eat it even with more fruits! They have a ton of options when it comes to toppings! The staff there has always been friendly. It is in an older building with very little parking so getting there earlier is better, especially with kids. Being in the older building, there's not much room between tables with the bigger parties. We usually go with one other family that totals 4 adults and 4 kids and it is tight around the edges. This is a yearly tradition that we do with our kids and they look forward to it every year! read more

Never thought I'd pay a king's ransom to have to cook my own breakfast. Had to wait 15-20 minutes just on the ingredients to come to the table ( griddle). Never again, ever. read more

What a fun breakfast place! You can have a small breakfast or a large breakfast. Of course, you cook it yourself, which is part of the fun! The only complaint we had was we thought the griddles were a bit small. We also didn't like that the berries came out frozen. Other than that, we had a lot of fun, and our server was great at explaining the concept. read more

The Pfunky Griddle - Unlimited pancakes with blueberries and chocolate chips - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Came in on a Sunday expecting a wait for a party of 4. They told us 45 minutes which was fine because we had passed by a coffee place not too far down the road. We walked to the coffee shop and just got our coffee when we got a text that our table was ready and we had TWO MINUTES to check in. I will never complain about a 45 minute wait turning into a 15 minute wait, but boy did we have to book it back. Many of the other reviews complain about paying to cook your own breakfast, but it was all of the fun with none of the prep or cleanup! We were there for almost 2 hours and had a great time making our breakfast, chatting with the friendly waitstaff who gave us good cooking tips, and watching the others around us struggle and succeed. I do wish the griddles were a little bigger, but that's my only negative comment. read more

Stopped in on our way to Memphis. Cute little spot. You get the feeling that you in someone's house. Then you go to the back porch where there is a griddle on every table to cook your own. Great concept! Nice to go somewhere different. food was average, but the experience cooking was super fun! read more

Short answer - skip it. Longer answer: at $20+ total per person, the expectations are high. And the portion sizes of the sides are small. And the service was really not good. 2 butter pats for 3 people. 2 tiny salt packets. Didn't see a server until the meal was over. Wrong order brought out twice. The food was good: bacon sausage and pancake batter. But the table griddle is made for two people, not 4. Good food; really bad logistics, bad service, not great value. Go to Farmland Cafe instead read more

I expected this place to be packed and they were definitely busy but when we went on a Saturday morning at approximately 9:45 am we only had to wait 10 mins for a table for 2. Small building, looks like a house turned restaurant but I liked the cozy feeling. Now Parking was a challenge, they have a very small lot and the surrounding businesses have signs for you not to park there. If you take Iris st and make a right on Columbine place there is street parking which is like a block behind the restaurant. Just have to be careful walking on the road as there is no sidewalk. They have lots of options for pancake toppings as well as different items to add to your eggs but we are simple people as you can see from our photos. They cook your meat and potatoes which Im glad they did because it saved us time. I can see this taking a while if you have a large party of people because the griddles are only so big. I loved that they asked how we would like our bacon prepared. My son was appreciative that his was extra crispy. Overall I would definitely come back. I cant wait to come back actually :) read more

The over all experience was five stars... The kids enjoyed cooking their own food and everything taste good. It was different than something we would usually do so we loved it. David was a great server!!! The only bad thing I have to say is when we got there they tried to give the big light skinned girl in the gray pants our table and she said loud "I don't want them" she didn't know I heard her but I did. read more

We were visiting Nashville for spring break and found fPunky Griddle on a list for kid friendly activities. We visited with 5 kids and they all loved it! It is expensive for cooking your own breakfast but a fun experience. Us adults were skeptical based on some of these Yelp reviews but decided to check it out at the kid's insistence. I'm glad we did! The food was delicious! Loved the bacon. Pancake batter was plentiful. We had the 5 grain which was very filling. The kids had the white batter. They really liked it! We think the seasoned griddles contributed to the deliciousness. The service was decent and the atmosphere was ok. It looks like a house that was converted into a restaurant. It looks a little rough around the edges but that may contribute to its charm. Depends on your perspective. We enjoyed it. Kids want to go back but for us probably a one and done experience. For locals, they might want to go back. read more

I would come here more if it was a bit more affordable in my opinion, I don't think it's ridiculously priced just wish it were a little less. For the adult meal specifically. But such is life, I have this spot tucked away for special occasions like waking up before noon Pretty busy every time I have gone. read more

perfect food with 5star service they're kind very clean tables. The pancakes are the best pancakes you'll ever have.

It's definitely for the experience. That's it. Would We do it again?, no. It would be fun for little ones. But 130 for the 5 of us to cook our own food, we will pass. Coffee wasn't that great. We recommend it just for the experience. But that's it. The concept is cute for your younger ones read more

Cute place so fun for kids. As a parent it's a little stressful to be having your kids do it but it's fun that your not doing it at home and they do all the clean up. Coffee was not the best but my Girls said the oj was really good! read more

This is a really cool concept. Cooking your own pancakes, French toast, eggs, and grilled cheese as you go. You get plenty of food with their special 'The Joey' with unlimited pancakes or French toast. But in truth, the concept is better than the reality. The food was okay. Price felt a bit high. Show up early on a Saturday morning. Limited parking, and it gets busy! read more

The Pfunky Griddle - Hash browns, eggs and French toast (you get six slices so don't let the picture mislead you) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

The Pfunky Griddle is a great breakfast take on the Korean BBQ idea. Griddle set into the table, ingredients show up and you all cook your own food. It's a little harder to do with a spatula than the korean BBQ with tongs. Little kids flipping pancakes at a weird angle can get a little crowded and messy. But overall it turns out fun and interactive. They have a really good selection of ingredients to put in your pancakes. I really enjoyed the wheat batter with chocolate chips and banana slices. Service was crazy slow at first. Not sure why it takes 20 min. to drop off a pitcher of pancake batter and some pre sorted toppings. If they could smooth out that process they would have customers happy sooner and turn tables quicker too. I would have rated it 4 stars if it wasnt so slow up front. Staff was friendly and food was good. A fun concept for the family which brings another element to breakfast. read more

This is more of an EXPERIENCE, the food here isn't anything special. We were disappointed because based on other reviews it seemed like it would be more fun. There are plenty of toppings for the pancakes, and you can cook them however you want, and the biscuits and gravy are really tasty!! However, the pancake batter is basic, not much flavor. Also, even though you cook a majority of the food yourself, you'll still wait just as long as if the kitchen was cooking all of it. Not recommended for the food, but if you want to cook your own breakfast and not worry about the prep or clean up then this may be for you; but for the price you pay here, you may be better off going somewhere else. read more

Absolutely delicious. I've been reading reviews for this place for months before coming to Nashville and I was so excited to finally come! The French toast is absolutely amazing and the service is phenomenal. read more

The Pfunky griddle had to be one of the most unique experiences for breakfast that I have had. While my fiancé and I were visiting Nashville we made a list of different places to travel to that would fit my dietary restrictions. The Pfunky griddle had both gluten-free and vegetarian options and the griddle itself was large enough to provide plenty of space for us to prepare our own food in separate quarters. Both of us had so much fun taking videos and cooking our own meals. After posting photos at home many people have acquired about the Pfunky griddle and the fun that resonated from sharing our experience. read more

I can now scratch off short order cook off of my bucket for 30 minutes today, I was one! This is a unique breakfast place since you grill your own items. Anything with an asterisk on the menu is yours to cook. They don't do it but they have quite a few items they cook for you. I'd have to give myself a thumbs up on my child like culinary skills! Their biscuits and gravy were great! I've never been to a place like this so if you're in the area give this place a shot. read more

This is a wonderful concept... a griddle at the center of each table, a pitcher of batter, a long list of toppings to choose from... it should have been fun... we were left feeling that the management was stingy. Instead of feeling welcomed we read "no sharing" "no taking leftovers home". We rather expected to be told to wipe our feet. And then the food. The pancakes were okay. My friend ordered the mixed berry topping. She received a perhaps 2 ounce cup of FROZEN berries... dry and cold, to top her pancakes with? I ordered the raspberry sauce which was very yummy but, again, ice cold. We were also given a pitcher perhaps 1/4 full of syrup. Our server, Josh?, was very attentive and helpful, but he could not overcome the unwelcoming ambience. I would suggest that you go downtown to Pancake Pantry, or even to Cracker Barrel. read more

Such a fun way to enjoy breakfast with the grandkids. They love to help in the kitchen at home so getting to help this way was wonderful fun for all of us. Yummy too! read more

Love this little place off the beaten path. It's fun to pick your toppings and kind of batter you want à Nashville staple id visit again

This place was so much fun! You are seated at a table with a griddle and you make your own pancakes, french toast and hash browns. Service was great and we would definitely go back! read more

Great, fun experience cooking what we like, how we like, without cleaning up! Our, server Lacey was awesome and kept the coffee flowing!

After a few visits, my review is that The Pfunky Griddle is just okay. I do recommend trying this spot at least once if you have kids as they love it. The food is overpriced for what you get and the service is just okay. On our recent visit, the floor was very sticky everywhere and we had to remind our waiter to bring us our drinks even after we had gotten our food. I had already eaten half my food before I got a water. The redeeming qualities is that this is a local restaurant, it is fun with kids, and the French toast is really really good. read more

The idea off making your own pancakes is creative! Add your sides. Banana is needed in all sides. A little Strawberry comote! Best of all it was all you can eat pancakes. Sausage was good and of course we serves up our eggs the way we liked them! A little smoky inside though from all the grills going. They do a decent job of battling that by air circulating. read more

I'm not sure how this place has any thing but 5 stars. This restaurant is a cook your own meal restaurant. My daughter absolutely loves this place. She always ask if she can cook our pancakes for us. So the premise of this restaurant is that there is a griddle built in to the middle of the table. You order food to cook on it and you cook it yourself. My daughter and I had a breakfast date there this morning. We both ordered the Joey. Which is a choice of a pancake or french toast, 2 toppings and a choice of meat and 2 choices between biscuit, egg, gravy, hash brown or potatoes. They cook the meat and biscuit and gravy for you but wont cook anything else. (according to their menu though they will cook your meal for you and your group for $1,000,000). Such a great atmosphere. This place is great for families and dates. They only have breakfast and lunch. It is not somewhere I would go by myself. read more

LOVED. We are traveling to Washington state from Florida and stoped in Nashville. We looked up this place on yelp. The reviews were mixed, but we decided to give it a try. I'm SO glad we did. My 3 year old LOVED the "do it yourself" aspect. My father, the chef, was in heaven. It was fun to cook our own pancakes and eggs and hasbrowns. We could eat and serve our food on our time. It was great for my impatient toddler. She loved flipping the pancakes and then eating them! The food prep came out quick with our other items from the kitchen. The ham steak was fabulous, salty and delicious. The eggs and pancake batter were fresh. The service was excellent, never waited on a coffee refill. Overall excellent experience. read more
