    We are so glad we waited til the opening rush died down. We were seated right away and had prompt service. Our server Sara D, was excellent! This is a nice place to come and enjoy brunch. We wanted to order the entire menu, but you know what? That would be too expensive. So I ordered the country fried steak with eggs and potatoes and toast. Omg I licked the whole plate clean. The food was hot and delicious. Made my stomach smile . My husband ordered the chili verde omelette; the flavor was two thumbs up. Tender meat and tasty chili verde. We also ordered a side of banana pancakes, fluffy and banana flavor taste for sure. The hot chocolate was hot and delicious. Mmm topped off the meal beautifully. Would we be back? Absolutely!

    Nice new local diner! It's a little hidden treasure on the outskirts of Exeter. Opened for breakfast and lunch only. The staff was very friendly. They were very business so expect to wait for a table but it's worth it! I ordered the ham & eggs and my dad got the Machaca, both were delicious. There is indoor and outdoor seating available.

    Stopped at this wonderful cafe on our way back from Kings canyon. What an amazing surprise this was. The service was perfect. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was just right. Wish we had a place like this where I live. When you're in this area, do yourself a favor and stop by for a great meal.

    French toast

    Service was fantastic when we first arrived! The host was great and made a really good first impression. Unfortunately, our waitress only came around about twice during our meal, so the service after being seated could have been a little more attentive. The French toast was really disappointing. It tasted like they forgot to add any vanilla or cinnamon--it honestly tasted like regular bread that had just been lightly toasted. The pancake was also extremely hard, almost rock hard. I know oranges aren't necessarily in season right now, but whatever oranges were used for the fresh orange juice were not the best. For $6 for such a small glass, I was definitely expecting better quality. There were some positives though! The jam was really good they say they make it in house! And the syrup comes out hot!

    Chilaquiles & huevos Ala Mexicana

    The chilaquiles were pretty good & pretty good portion. In the menu it said I came with guacamole & was topped with avocado . The fresh squeezed oj was nothing special tasted like the gallon juice & was priced at $7. So I expected something maybe a little bigger ? French toast was okay , again nothing special . Comes plain so you have to pay $2.99 for EACH additional topping. They don't have mixed fruit so you pay $2.99 for maybe one whole strawberry , & $2.99 for half a banana. Came out to $16 , no sides. Service was good! Restaurant was cute , probably wouldn't go again though.

    Such delicious food with extraordinary service! Whether you choose a menu item from the American or Mexican dishes, you won't be disappointed.

    Country Fried Steak and eggs with country potatoes and a side of biscuits and gravy

    Such a cute breakfast spot. Food was delicious and the food came out so quick. Our server was very nice and helpful.

    We've been here twice this week. The first time we had Sara, and she was absolutely wonderful and so accommodating. Today we had Amanda and she was also wonderful. We sat outside cause we had our beagle with us and they brought him a bowl of cold water. Food is also great! My husband and son are big breakfast people and they definitely did not disappoint. I had the chili verde omelette one day and biscuits and gravy the other time. Very good. Great service and atmosphere.

    I first reviewed Pete's Place many years ago, back when I was just starting out with simple food…read morereviews. Coming back now, I wanted to see if it still lived up to the five stars I gave it back then, not out of nostalgia, but out of curiosity. The menu has grown into a wide spread: sandwiches, salads, burgers, chicken fried steak, even pasta. It's the kind of menu that makes you realize this place is built to feed everyone, no matter what they're in the mood for. I started with something simple, a water on a hot summer day, and it arrived with a lemon wedge. It's a small touch, but one I haven't seen in a while. The kind of detail that tells you someone still cares about the basics. It was lunchtime, so I waited a bit to be seated, but that's just part of dining in a small town. The waitress was kind, patient, and attentive in a way that stood out. Before I could even ask, she refilled my water multiple times, noticing the half‑empty glass and taking care of it without hesitation. That kind of service goes a long way. I ordered the jalapeño burger, and it came out faster than expected. The fries were lightly salted steak fries, my favorite, and cooked just right. The burger itself was a mixed experience. The bun was grilled, which gave it good flavor, but it also made it collapse into a thin, flat shape the moment I picked it up. And while I ordered a jalapeño burger expecting heat, the jalapeños were thick, grilled slices from a large pepper. Every bite was dominated by jalapeño, to the point where the burger itself got lost in the background. I love spicy food, but the balance was off, more jalapeño than burger. Still, the service was warm, the goodbye on the way out was genuine, and the menu has enough variety that I'd come back to try something different. I'm not handing out five stars this time, but I'm also not writing this place off. Pete's Place is part of Exeter's rhythm, and revisiting it felt like checking in with an old spot that still has plenty to offer, just maybe not that jalapeño burger again.

    Their sandwiches are very good. The service was fast and it has a great ambiance. A little retro…read morewith the booths.

On a very hot day, it was so nice to walk into the restaurant and enjoy their air conditioning, which felt like a breath of fresh air. The place was getting busy, but our service remained good, and our food came out quickly. Everything we ordered was tasty. I didn't manage to finish my meal, so I took it to go and enjoyed it the next day. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was still delicious. Overall, Los Panchos is a solid spot for a satisfying meal, especially on a hot day, and I would definitely recommend it!

    I can agree with the other reviews. My husband returned my burrito because it had far more beans…read morethan meat. On top of that, his own burrito was missing three ingredients that he specifically requested. When he politely tried to address the issues, the owner of this location was very disrespectful. Several customers who witnessed the interaction even commented that the owner should not have handled the situation that way. Instead of trying to resolve the problem or simply remaking the burritos, they refused to serve him, even though we had already paid $51 for two burritos and two drinks. Save your money and spend it somewhere that values its customers and is willing to make things right when there is a problem. By far one of the worse restaurants I have been too.

I was told I could not order food, which was confusing considering they close at 10 PM. If employees want to stop serving that early, maybe update the closing hours to 9:30 instead. The speaker system is outdated and so staticky you can barely hear anything being said. The employee taking orders was rude from the start and acted irritated when I had to ask multiple times what she said because she was mumbling. I ordered a Reese's cyclone and was handed an Oreo cyclone instead. When I politely explained it was the wrong order, I was basically told I would have to take it regardless of it not being what I ordered. When I pushed back, things got unnecessarily escalated instead of being handled with simple customer service. Bringing over two other employees while remaking my cyclone made the situation even more uncomfortable and completely unnecessary. After all the drama and attitude over such a simple mistake, I honestly didn't even feel comfortable eating it and ended up throwing it away because I wasn't sure if it had been tampered with. If you don't like your job, maybe you shouldn't work there, or at least take some customer service training. A little kindness and professionalism go a long way. Save yourself the trouble and drive a few extra miles to Exeter for Frosty King or Burger Express. Much friendlier employees and far better service.
