We live close by but rarely eat breakfast here. It's always a treat when we do! Servers are great and it's very kid friendly.

The lines maybe long but worth the wait. This old school dine in feel with pleasing food will have you coming back for more. The so many choices of pancakes will have you curious on the taste. Staff is friendly and always moving to serve your food speedy. A definite tourist stop!!

This place is a Nashville institution for a reason. Expect to wait for a while on weekend mornings, but it is well worth it. I personally recommend the Caribbean pancakes.

We love the Pancake Pantry. You have to go early if you don't want to wait! Try any type of pancakes or the yummy French toast.

Great place for pancakes but don't like the wait. Wish they would open up another location in Nashville.

This is a Nashville staple and well worth the line around the block. Don't worry- it usually moves very quickly!

RUDE SERVICE!
We have lived in Franklin for 2 years and finally decided to visit the famed Pancake Pantry. It was Monday at about 1:40, so no wait. Cute atmosphere, but nothing overly special. The waitress was very nice at first, and took our orders. The food came out pretty quickly, and it all looked wonderful...but my raspberry compote pancakes came out with cherry compote on them. I took a second taste to be sure, then summoned the waitress. I told her what I had ordered, and she said in a defensive voice, "those pancakes most certainly ARE raspberry." I looked at her in shock, and said, "well, they taste like cherry and I don't like cherry and they even have big cherries all over them." She took them to be exchanged. At that point, my husband, who was facing the kitchen, noticed her tasting my returned pancakes. GROSS! she actually ate after me, not knowing if I had any sort of cold or disease or anything. She then returned to say that they would replace them, but said that both she and the cook agreed that the returned portion was indeed raspberry. Argumentative! She seemed stubborn to a point. Again, I just looked at her, amazed that she was actually arguing with a customer, as if I didn't know the taste differences of raspberry and cherry! When the raspberry pancakes came out, they looked almost identical. The raspberries even looked a lot like cherries, believe it or not. But the taste was 100% raspberry. And 100% different than the first set of pancakes I was served. The waitress came over to our table a little later and said in an overly cheerful voice, "everyone happy now?" We were polite. But unfortunately, it tainted the whole visit. The lack of people skills in this world continues to amaze me. We did register our complaint with the manager as we left and the manager said he appreciated the feedback. The food was pretty good, but not overly spectacular. I actually like Bob Evans pancakes better. But the service was disrespectful, and made me not want to return.

AMAZING Pancakes!!!

There are not enough words in the english dictionary to describe how scrumptous this place is!!! Absolutely love their buttermilk pancakes. The butter and syrup combo with the pancakes are unlike anything I have eaten before in my life!!! Everytime we have friends in town, we take them to eat here!! Definitely worth the wait if there is a line!
