The service was great, you will definitely have to wait. This is more of neighborhood staple. Pancakes were good and portions were decent for the cost. Problem was parking lot and condition of restaurant really dated and how is the restroom out of order. We are visiting from another state. If I go again will be strictly take out. read more

Sometimes you just want a traditional breakfast from a family owned diner. Pancakes N Things is perfect for that! The interior is simple, but the staff are super friendly and happy to be there. The menu is huge and includes all the breakfast classics you could want plus some extras. They also serve lunch items and have a kids menu. I went with a classic Greek omelet with home fries and a biscuit. The omelet was cooked perfectly and I loved the feta cheese chunks. I can be picky about home fries, but these were great- crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, with a little bit of flavor. The biscuit was probably the best thing on the plate. Again, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and great flavor. This is the place to go for breakfast! read more

First, I have to mention that Pancakes N Things only accepts cash, so be prepared for that. Also, be ready to wait a bit for a table, as they stay busy. But in my experience, it's absolutely worth the wait. The staff is friendly, the seating is comfortable, and the food is amazing. My girlfriend and I ordered the gyro, and my grandmother had the fried flounder fish sandwich with soup. The gyro was great, and my grandmother loved her fried flounder sandwich and soup. Pancakes N Things is an amazing family-owned restaurant and a local favorite. The prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere has such a great vibe--it feels like everyone knows each other. If you're in the Chesapeake area, I highly recommend checking them out. Their hours are Monday through Saturday, 7 AM - 2:30 PM, and Sunday, 7 AM - 1:30 PM. read more

I have never had a bad meal here and had to make sure I stopped by before leaving town. Everything is always fresh and flavorful and you cannot beat the value! I'd def recommend coming early on a Sunday or you can do a to go order. The service is always great and Ashley was a pleasure on Sunday! This is great for couples, small groups, and solo dining. The biggest thing to know is they are a cash only establishment. read more

Cash Only! Just wanted to mention that first, but if you don't there is a teller inside that you're able to use. The decore is plain, but the service is great! It's a local favorite. And the portions they serve are huge. The menu is so vast, which is great. I don't think they left anything out when it comes to breakfast! I ordered one of their seafood speacial "shrimp combo" The shrimps where nice and big not over fried with 2 eggs , hashbrowns and toast. I'm a bacon lover, so had to order my side of bacon. If your not looking for fancy, but want a good big hearty breakfast. This is the place. I do recommend coming early as parking gets full, but there is an over flow parking across the street. I herd the biscuit is delicious, so definitely will be back! read more

Amazing, friendly service staff. Food was excellent and reminded me of my mom's Sunday morning fish and grits cooking.

The staff was friendly and the food was delicious! I had the catfish and it was seasoned well and perfectly fried. My only issue with my visit was our waitress. She seemed older so I tried to be understanding, but she did a poor job of taking care of our needs while we were there. From start to finish we had to stop someone else and ask for things. Not good. Other than that, it was a great visit. read more

Pancakes N Things is a consistently good food family-owned restaurant! There's a variety of menu options from classic breakfast to seafood breakfast and so much more. Even the coffee is hot, not strong enough for me, but it's hot, so that's a plus. The service is excellent. It's family-oriented, and everyone is always willing to make you feel welcome. The ambiance is a little outdated, but this is a family-owned establishment that has been around for many, many, many years and will stand the test of time against these commercial restaurants. read more

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture to go along with this amazing review! I stopped by before leaving back to Texas. It's a small hole in the wall dinner but it packs all the love and ambience for anyone to feel right at home. I ordered a very typical breakfast, pancakes with eggs and sausage. The pancakes were huge and had the soft fluff everyone loves and eggs were nice and not dry and rubbery! This is a awesome location who also loves their community hero's (police) as I saw what I would assume was the owner take care of their bill without question. The other owner (Artie) I believe, was also extremely nice and very kind! Should I be back in VA, I'll be back there for another great breakfast! read more

Delicious food, family owned and operated. They also serve the best Liver & Onions in town. Great service!

Didn't have the best experience. Waitress never came to our table. They need more staff

The service was awesome. The food was delicious right down to coleslaw potato salad crabcakes to me. Everything was it tasted like homemade food. read more

This place is still amazing. I used to go here with the dentist that I used to work for for lunch back in 2008 2009. The food is still excellent. The service is outstanding and since I've been here last, they've updated the decor. It is definitely people proof and so much for you to I have to take the leftovers home read more

Second time here and this time came with a friend whom I gladly recommended this place; and she thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a wait around 15 to 20 minutes, but was worth it. Got coffee (free refills for $2.95) and steak omelet with provolone cheese (charged extra) with grits (or potato hash) and toast (or biscuit). Service was friendly. Just remember to bring cash since they don't accept credit card or check. They have an ATM in an alcove by the entrance. You pay $2 ATM fee but they refund the $2 if your bill is at least $20. Btw always packed and hard to find parking in their lot but you can park in the lot next McDonald's across the street. read more

I've been let down a lot. My job keeps me up and down the East Coast so a lot of these food places suck but this place here my goodness that was the best pork chops I've ever had in any restaurant. I'm definitely going back. read more

This diner is a hidden gem. The decor is simple and fitting. The staff was wonderful. We ordered our food and it was brought to us promptly and hot. Absolutely DELICIOUS! It can get busy so there may be a slight wait but there is a long bench for you to sit on. They also have an ATM- keep in mind, they only accept cash. We both had breakfast and I look forward to going back and trying the lunch. read more

Emma and the hostess were absolutely fantastic... And Gus was helpful too. I went in expecting a casual diner with many options and they absolutely delivered. It's a great family run diner feel and I enjoyed the food and coffee. They've got some bigger seating areas for larger groups, but most are two and four person tables. Prices are very reasonable and portions are very good. read more

Pancakes N Things is a small, old school, down to earth diner. I've been many times. I always order the western omelette with American cheese and mushrooms added. With that you get the choice of grits or home fries and a biscuit or toast. My husband tried something new & ordered scallops on the side. We thought they'd be pan seared but they were fried and lacking flavor, so I wouldn't order that again. Our food was hot & arrived quickly. The waitress served us well. I usually always order to go, but today I ate inside. There was an odd odor inside & the decor is not appealing. I recommend just ordering to go. Please note that this is a cash only restaurant. That can be an inconvenience for those who do not have a debit card to use the ATM or cash on them. However, they have an ATM inside & refund you the fee for using the ATM. Also, please be aware that parking is limited, but they own a parking lot across the street. read more

Great customer service. In regard to food that we ordered is just not that good. Price is reasonable though.

I've passed by this restaurant for years and only recently tried them out. First disclosure is they are a cash only restaurant, so come prepared. The parking lot directly in front of the restaurant is usually very packed but they do have additional parking just across the street. This is a great place for good reasonably priced breakfast. Their fried fish is excellent. I also enjoy their corned beef Hash and omelets. Service is good and friendly. Only negative is both times I've been here their bathroom was closed, not sure if this is all the time or just the days I went there which were pretty close together. Dinning area is simple, a Mom and Pop style restaurant. read more

9.5 Out of 10...only reason I can't give them a perfect score is because of the esthetics of the restaurant as a whole. Could use a Decor makeover for a more upscale feel...And Cash Only Part was a lil Sketchy...But as for as the Food, service and price point...it is simply amazing and nothing to complain about...HIGHLY RECOMMEND and WILL Return read more

It was delicious, service was excellent & ambiance was great!! I would recommend u try it when u get a chance. You won't be disappointed @ all. Great food, drinks , very friendly & attentive staff.

Pancakes N Things - Just chilling on the patio, catching some rays!! - Pancakes Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Though this place seems really old, this place is still a great place to get some breakfast food. To start, I want to say that when I entered the store, the place seemed pretty old. I also find it a bit strange that they also served Italian and seafood. These are not bad things because this business has been around for 40 years. For the service I got, it was pretty average. The staff were extremely nice and made me feel very welcome here. My only complaint is that they took a while to take my order when I walked in. When I talk about the food, I can say that it was above average. The food was really good and very tasty. I ordered an omelet and some pancakes. I will say that the omelet tasted pretty good because it had various flavors inside of it, and it was really filling. For the pancakes, they were pretty good except for the butter. The butter tasted kind of salty, but it did not take away from the taste of the pancake. Overall, I would recommend this place if you're looking for somewhere with breakfast before or after work. Also, if you are interested in checking out new places. read more

I tried so hard to like this place. I even came back to give it another try but it's so mediocre. I will start this review by letting you know that this place takes cash only. A little stone age in my opinion, given it is now 2019 sis but ah kay... This establishment is not decorated any type of special way, it gives me good ol fashioned Annie Oakley diner vibes. I can imagine it has its regulars that keep it afloat. The menu is very simple. The drinks are even simpler. No lattes, cappuccinos, or specialty coffee. Just PLAIN coffee with PLAIN creamer, not even a French vanilla or Irish creme flavor sis so dont you even expect to get that. I ordered a hot chocolate and received a Luke warm watered down chocolate with what tasted like a fat free no sugar whipped creme. This made me sad. Our waitress seemed to have ants in her pants or was in a big rush because she dropped off the check right when we received our breakfast. I had to custom make my omelette since there omlette choices are very basic. It still had no flavor. I asked and paid for extra cheese but did not receive extra cheese. The Italian sausage wasnt seasoned properly and damn near tasteless. I thought all Italian sausage were created equal but I guess not. The good things I can say were my grits and pancakes were ok. read more

The service of this place was great. Walked in and was immediately greeted and told we could sit wherever we wanted. After receiving our menus and looking over them, we were immediately greeted by our waitress and asked if we were ready to order or at least knew what we were drinking. The place itself isn't much to look at, but I tend to enjoy places care more about functionality rather that ambiance if the food is good. So let's get into that. My first issue was that the steak omelette didn't come with cheese or any onions with it, it would be a add on charge which I added. I decline the biscuits and toast and asked with a single pancake which was also an added charge. Overall, the omelette wasn't that great, very bland. The home fries weren't much better but was good enough to eat. The pancake was probably the best out of the three items I ordered but for the price I was charge, I expected the pancake to big a little bigger. The sitting is opened space and another guest happened to order some type of fish which really woke you up with its smell. Oh and this is a cash only establishment. Gotta love that old school look and feel right? Overall I wasn't impressed and I wouldn't be in a rush to dine here again but could if I needed to. read more

Delicious first visit! Our first visit, and filled us up with happy tummies! We came at noon, but as breakfast served all day, I had scrambled eggs, bacon and two big pancakes...cleaned my plate. My husband had not had a veal cutlet in ages, so he had one on a sandwich and said it was indeed very good. Our server was Shannon, who explained the menu and took great care of us. Pepsi products, bring cash; no checks or cards. Delicious! read more

They're so nice here, and the food is real homey. Fried seafood and eggs for breakfast might sound odd (to some), but it really works! I love coming here. The service is always top notch! read more

Friendly staff and very welcoming it's no wonder they've been in business for 40 years. The atmosphere is a little outdated, but the family & Greek atmosphere really gives it a homey feel. Breakfast is served all day. Menu is tweakable which is a plus since they're flexible with sides. Prices are right for the portions. I got the farm fresh eggs with cheese and we're made to perfection. Along with grits and sausage links. Sausage links aren't the average frozen type, they're made with a casing which were pretty good. Will definitely be back. read more

This place is an old retro diner. Its not new or shiny or cool...but they make good quality food with healthy portions. This place is more of a nostalgia bit as my boyfriend and his brother used to come here all the time as kids. I have ordered the fish and eggs breakfast both times. I ordered a chocolate chip pancake the second time. Its just as good as any IHOP or waffle house and prices are affordable. The quirky vibe is not for everyone but I support local businesses who put out quality consistently. The wait for food usually isn't too long and there is a buffet for breakfast though I have never tried it. Would recommend to locals. read more
