Bring Cash. Food Was Not That Great

June 7, 2009

The food was OK. Not as great as many have exclaimed here. I got the blue berry pancakes. Nice of them to show me a few undersized blue berries. The whipped cream had melted and slid off the pancakes. The meal was incredibly overpriced. Plus, when we went to pay, it is cash only. Fortunately, there was an ATM machine nearby that charged me $5 for the money I needed to pay.
If you go down the street toward Maxwell's restuarant, on the left hand side of the road there is another pancake place that is much better than the Pancake Pantry. The service was better, the pancakes were better, the prices are better, and they take ATM and credit cards.

Pancake Pantry is on the Gatlinburg strip, near the middle of the area. You will notice it by the old whorl feel of the building. And apparently this was the "place" to go and when you hear that you still have to keep a certain sense of reserve as always.

We hit the pantry around 9:30 in the morning and waiting lines had already started to form. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a spot and within that time period the waiting line had grown very long. My advice: Come early!

We were seated at a table/bench seating arrangement and the seats are close. They basically pack you in like sardines so get to know your neighbors.

The service was quick and I guess you realize what they recommend: THE PANCAKES! I had the blueberry topped buttermilk pancakes and they were very tasty. Fluffy but not dry at all. Plus freeze squeezed orange juice and coffee (Although I am not a coffee drinker).

Now the interesting thing here is that they ONLY accept cash, no Credit Cards but of course they have an ATM machine for your convenience. All in all the food was wonderful if you can stand the packed in crowd and the wait. It may be a little tough with kids.

This was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Don't let the long line discourage you. It moves fairly quickly, and it's well worth the wait. They had a huge variety of pancakes, and all were served with a smile. Highly recommended.
