An actual review from an actual customer, that has actually eaten here. If you want homemade food, look no where else.

Excellent breakfasts. Many, many choices. The corned beef hash is delicious, and all of the egg dishes are prepared well and full of flavor. Great can’t miss spot!

We need to normalize giving 1 star reviews to businesses that are cash only. You've wasted my time and my lunch break and I will not forgive you or delete my review.

Back in 2012....we went to our beloved Hotcakes. The most happenin' thing was homemade tamale corn cakes. They were made with frozen corn, black beans, cumin..... topped with melted cheddar cheese. And they were served with salsa and sour cream. I looked forward to my weekly treat of utter deliciousness...with passionate desire. My husband had a bunch of favs.It was just a tiny place owned by a wonderful lady. Does anyone remember these?

Vegetarian options: Unfortunately, this was long ago. I would be more familiar with the menu if still in the area.

The food is ok,tuna sandwich is good, atmosphere is superb! The only downside is they only accept cash, so i need to run to the bank accross the street before having my hotcakes.

AFTER eating they point to a small 3x5 Card on top of the register 30 feet away that apparently says “CASH ONLY”. How do restaurants get away with this which allows them to under-report income and thus pay less taxes? Food not worth going back for nor do I recommend this restaurant.

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!!! Food is barely edible and extremely overpriced for the small portions they give you. They get confused when you ask them for real butter because they don't have any. They do not accept credit or debit cards, it is cash only. I do not understand how this place did not go out of business years ago. The owners should be ashamed of themselves.

Cash only spot. Luckily I had it otherwise would have had to run to Chase around the corner with a toddler. No sign or anything to let people know of this. Overpriced for what you get. Veggie omelet had no flavor at all. The only reason why I decided to go here was because Walker Bros. line was too long. Probably won't come back here.

The food is really subpar. The quality is low. The adult grilled cheese is probably the wimpiest sandwich I have ever seen and it is served with lays ridge chips. Blah. My chicken salad wrap was okay, again served with the plain chips. The kale salad looks unappetizing and pretty bland. The waitress acted like waiting tables is just a bother and I am so sick of poor attitudes of those in the service industry. Don’t bother coming here.
