My husband, sister & myself went to Happy Chef for the 1st time. My husband & I are gluten free by choice. Their Gluten-free pancakes are AMAZING! Definitely worth a try! We brought our own GF buns just in case we decided on a burger, but we did not. The staff was soo friendly, attentive & all around great service! We look forward to going again!

Breakfast with eggs, hashbrowns, and ham slice and one with hamburger steak were both delicious. Ingredients fresh home cooked. Highly recommend

We came here for the brunch. The cheese curds were surprisingly tasty, very chewy. The pancakes were not bad but the patty was just borderline okay. Overall, the food and service are okay for us. If you ever drive by here, not a bad idea to try this restaurant. The outside chef definitely worths a picture.

I found the waffle small and very expensive for what you get but the service was good and it was a nice environment

Get the pancakes. They have the world's best pancakes. I don't live nearby but if asked for my ranking in best pancakes, this place has it. The atmosphere is completely my vibe but it may not be everyone's vibe. I love it. Order pancakes.

Kid-friendliness: There were the best pancakes so if your kid likes pancakes, this is great. Also kids get excited about giant statues and this has that. It's definitely a scrapbook memory moment.

The food is good, and so is the service. Is a bit slow, so take that in mind if you are in a hurry ?

Nice place to have Breakfast & Lunch. They close at 2 pm. Casual & relaxed atmosphere.

Wheelchair accessibility: It does not have an automatic door opener so we had to negotiate our way in backwards (as at most restaurants) with my wife's wheelchair while she held the door open with her right hand.

Nice breakfast. Did love the coffee pot on the table this way u can fill up your cup without waiting for someone to fill it. Only thing is it could have been hotter it was only a little warm. Otherwise it was nice.

Pretty neat place to stop for breakfast. It's the original and last (is what we were told). Service was very friendly and the food was good.
