Everyone in our party of 6 was amazed at how great their food was. Even our 2 kids who are some picky eaters. They actually finished their meals!!! The French Toast was absolutely delicious. I tried some of my kiddo’s bacon and it was really great too and I’m not typically a bacon eater. This is an absolute must-eat when we visit now.

We always eat here when in Gatlinburg. I was a little disappointed on this visit. The food was just “meh” and the line system is not efficient anymore. It was a mess and the hostess was getting irate at people. She yelled at us to get out because she couldn’t work with us inside.. then came looking for us because she was trying to seat us. I’m guessing it’s because people who hadn’t been called were standing in there. It was a mess. They need to move to a check in and text system. Standing in a line outside in 20 degrees is not a fun way to start the day. People could shop and stay warm until they are called. Would clear the walkway as well.

Very disappointing. I live close by now and was hoping to add this to my regular spots, but that'll be a no. For a place allegedly known for their crepes, I didn't expect at 8:15am they would be just pancake batter that tasted like they were made yesterday. I didn't expect the eggs to be super tiny or the sausage to taste like half hamburger meat either. The coffee was fresh. Freshly burnt. And, the tea tasted older than the crepes somehow. The only thing good here was the server.

It is worth the wait!!! We went at 7:15am and waited 40 minutes in line (in Black Friday...so, understandable). But it was worth, The food is delicious, and good quality!!! You can tell pancakes are made from real ingredients! You won't have stomach issues after!!! hehehe.... Service was fast and atmosphere is beautiful. At that time, you can park in the street. But after 8am please look for parking somewhere else. Totally recommend the Pumpkin Pancakes!!!
Parking: After 8am, look for a parking lot close by. There are plenty
Best place to eat breakfast in Gatlinburg, period. Get there a little before they open if you don’t want to wait in line for too long, otherwise you WILL have to wait in line, and chances are it will be a decent wait. The Peach Delight crepes are my absolute favorite item to order on the menu. They are soooo delicious! I could eat them for breakfast every single day that I’m in Gatlinburg. All of their sides are good as well. My personal favorite is their scrambled eggs with cheese. They also have good chocolate milk. The service is always super friendly and despite the amount of people, also fast. Food comes out quickly and drink/coffee refills can seem continuous at times lol, which is a good thing imo! 11/10, if you’re in Gatlinburg, you HAVE to eat breakfast here at least once, if not multiple times.
Was a Very Nice experience like always, even the line to wait before was long, you wait max 20-30min, if you’re there before 9am you don’t need to wait at all for all Early birds, waitress was sweet, food is coming fast, the pancakes is what there known for, they have the best pancakes so far around here. Prices totally fine. Go and try it it’s worth it.

The line was long but the wait was short! Do not let the line discourage you. Once seated, our server was quick to get our drink orders. The portions were large and the taste amazing. I had the Austrian apple and walnut crepes my wife had the blueberry pancakes. The order came out quickly and our server made sure our coffee never ran dry. Even though they were busy with tourists like us, they never made us feel rushed. I loved the spice level with the apple and walnut compote (mild but warms the heart).

Always a good size line to get in. Service is very quick. Staff is very friendly. Food wasn't as good this visit. Seems like a lot of the food is made up in advance then tweaked per order. Western omelette was a basic omelette with the fixings on top. But overall not bad.

Listen to every other review here. This place is sub par and overhyped. Pancakes i had here were not even cooked fully and i could taste the batter. Avoid n save your time. Waiters are really sweet though
