Coffee was served in a caraf for the table. It was cold and watered down. Apple juice was watered down. Pancakes were semi raw and tasted off… like they had been cooked on a stovetop with something else. Food was “ok” . Nothing special.. especially for $19.99 per person.

Food was good, although there was a wait, the line kept moving. Make sure to try the Donuts! 🍩 OMGosh delicious! Buy some on the way out. The sit down family style breakfast is the way to go! All you can eat!
The service wasn’t up to par, we had to wait for our server over 20 minutes, had to ask for refills on food.
I ordered a picture of mimosas, I do not recommend it. $30.00 and It tasted like Orange Tange from the 80’s.
Again don’t forget to try the mouth watering donuts 🍩! You’ll want to buy them from the store before you exit.
Parking: There’s additional parking 🅿️ in back but you’ll have to walk up a steep hill.
Kid-friendliness: There’s times of fun items to look at, take pictures with giant statue. Toys and knickknacks.

Everything was great! The food is plentiful. It's family style serving and you have to finish the serving platters before they bring more, which makes sense to me! Highly recommend! Wonderful souvenir shop as well.

The food was good, the servers were very kind, and there were a LOT of people (which might overstimulate some). They have a gift shop with a wide range of merchandise for sale.

Food was excellent, however pricing was wayy more than expected. Spent over 80.00 on 2 adults and 2 toddlers. Put quite a dent in our vacation budget. Service was subpar, the waitress forgot something from our order every single time she came to the table, and everything took forever. Pretty disappointing overall considering the amount we spent. I also did not like having to pay before receiving our food and service, as we definitely left her far too generous a tip. This place might be awesome if eating alone but in a group of 4 or more be prepared to pay over 100 for "breakfast"...

Absolutely a rip off. Expensive!!!!!!
Upon arrival they greet you and offer items that they charge extra for, without telling you. 16 Oz fruit cup $7.00.
Nasty old fruit
Water down orange juice
Rubber potatoes
The owners are scams!!!!!

I didn't like the food. the potatoes were burnt and the pancakes were dry, just not a fan of the food overall and definitely not for the price. the atmosphere was good.

We live Paul Bunyans and we make it a point to go for breakfast every time we're in the Dells. The staff and service is always great. They turn the tables quickly so you're not waiting in line for too long because they do fill up quickly. Mimosas and bloodys are great. The only thing is the price. $18.99 a person is a lot and I understand that it's family buffet style but here's the thing, the bowls of food for everyone to share are small, so yeah our party of 6 was fed well and we only had to ask for more sausage but in all reality you're getting the amount of food you would receive at a mom and pop breakfast joint when just ordering 1 egg, sausage and toast and you'd be paying $8 for the whole thing. Our server was great, everything was great just the price. But that won't change, if anything it'll just get higher like everything else.

It's too expensive in my opinion. Waffles, potatoes, ham, & coffee were not good. Donuts were my favorite. Biscuits in gravy and sausage were good. Eggs were mid.
