The Pancake Shop

This was our first time visiting Hot Springs and we were on our way home when we decided to eat lunch (breakfast of course) at The Pancake Shop. I was a little worried at first over the prices as they are ala cart when you order pancakes. After our food came out, I saw huge homemade suagage patties and pancakes that covered the entire plate! Our server told us the best way to enjoy our pancakes was to cut a hole in the middle and fill it with the whipped butter, then pour the syrup over all. She was correct! These were so good and I could not finish mine, which is a rare moment for me. My husband and I both ordered cheese grits. I am very picky about grits. Most places just don’t make good grits. These cheese grits are by far better than any I have ever made and the best I have ever eaten. My husband shares the same thoughts on the grits. Two of our teen boys wanted to try our grits and kept asking for more of OUR grits! Everything was perfectly good! After ordering our food, we had to wait awhile. Then while eating our food, we all understood why the wait. This food is made by hand and is well worth a little wait. And for the worry of pricing, a meal here is worth every penny. We went home talking about how our meal at The Pancake Shop was the perfect ending to our trip in Hot Springs! Well done guys! You completely satisfied a family of five. We will definitely visit again when we return to Hot Springs.

Best breakfast ever. If you are ever in Hot Springs you have to eat here. Bacon and Sausage fresh from a local farmer. Fresh squeezed OJ. Food and service were excellent. We did have to put our name on a waiting list but worth the wait. Decent price for the amount of food and quality of the food you get. Our waiter was a pro. He should offer classes on or write a book on how to wait tables and service customers.

If you are in the mood for delicious breakfast in the heart of Hot Springs this is the place to be! The charm, friendly staff, and great food make for an outstanding experience. We liked it so much we went back two days in a row on our trip!

This is our favorite place in the world to eat breakfast!!! The ham steak is amazing...well everything is amazing!!!! Lol My absolute favorite thing though is hands down the apple butter!!! And the best thing is they sell everything next door at the Savory pantry!! So when we come to visit from Texas I HAVE to stock up on Apple butter, bbq sauce and coffee! You HAVE to come here! There usually is a wait but it's worth it!!! You will not be disappointed!

Such an absolutely wonderful breakfast before the races! Great pancakes, eggs cooked perfect, delicious coffee, apple butter, real sausage, old fashion ham and grits! So Southern. Got to be the best breakfast in Arkansas! The way things used to be and ought to be! Made me proud to be from Arkansas though I live in Texas now. No better place for vacation than beautiful Hot Springs, Arkansas. Thank you! Coming back soon! Great service too!
