Stopped by Cottage House Restaurant in Cleveland and this place is exactly what you want if you're…read morelooking for a solid, no-frills Southern breakfast. First off, the setup is super easy. You walk in, grab a tray, and you've got options. You can go through the hot bar and get served right there, pay, and be on your way... or order off the menu, sit down, and they'll bring the food to you. Very simple and efficient. The inside is spacious with plenty of seating, and there's also outdoor seating if you want it. Parking is easy too, which is a big plus, especially compared to the chaos you'll run into closer to Helen. Food wise, I always judge breakfast spots by the chicken, egg, and cheese biscuit... and this one held up. The chicken was tender, the biscuit was soft and fresh, and overall it was a solid start. The surprise for me was the hashbrown casserole. It came out good, but once I added a little salt, the flavor really popped. Definitely worth getting. The pancakes were also done right... nice crispy edges with a soft, fluffy inside. That's exactly how pancakes should be. Menu wise, they've got everything you'd expect from a Southern breakfast spot... biscuits and gravy, eggs, bacon, sausage, country ham, pancakes, omelets, and even lunch style items like burgers and plate meals if you come later. They also have a Coca-Cola fountain, which is always a win. Service was friendly, especially for early morning, and the whole place just has that comfortable, old-school home cooking feel. There is also a drive thru if you don't feel like leaving your car. Overall, this is a great spot if you want a good breakfast without the crowds. Simple, tasty, and easy.

While the pancakes are soft, not overly starchy and resemble the ones you'd make at home and the bacon was perfectly crispy. Unfortunately, the biscuits and gravy were disappointing. I have nothing against using frozen biscuits as many of them are really delicious. However this biscuit must have suffered from a bit of freezer burn during storage, making it drier and crumblier than it should be while also retaining that frozen taste. The sausage gravy was not great; thinner than one normally expects it to be and lacking in that typical, complex flavor that comes from a roux made with sausage grease and flour. All that said, I would not rule out trying this place again to see if something else on the menu is better, but I cannot recommend the sausage and gravy.

At the southern pecan, I could've had a whole sheet of their cornbread -- it was pleasantly delicious. Also of note: Our server was prompt and kind. The vibe inside was really cool too. Overall, I'd come back!

The cheese was delicious as well. Will definitely order this again. For the mains, we went with the Chicken and Dumplings and the Southern Fried Steak. The Chicken and Dumplings were amazing as well. I always worry about the balance of chicken vs dumplings but this was very well balanced and delicious. The dumplings were cooked well and the chicken was very flavorful. The Southern Fried Steak was fantastic and well. No complaints about this dish either. Every component was well made and delicious. The only complaint I had was the service really went down hill after we got our meal. Our server didn't check on us until she delivered the bill which was disappointing because initially the service started out so well. The Southern Pecan is a good spot. Stop in and grab a bite.

A fried chicken breast on grits with scrambled eggs and gravy. I ate half and took half home with me knowing that I don't often eat food this rich. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. If you are counting carbs and calories, don't come here. But if you want to go somewhere that you feel genuinely welcomed and are then fed incredible food, this is the place for you. Don't expect fancy. This is a laid back, come as you are place. And I'm so glad we did.
