Decent breakfast buffet but they will make fresh pancakes, waffles & omelets for you upon request. The most amazing thing about our breakfast experience was our server, Shedrick! He was so friendly and made you feel right at home. We even realized through conversation that we were from the same town. Shedrick is a gem & I hope that you are lucky enough to have a chance to meet him!! read more

Our waitress was fantastic. She was friendly, attentive, and always on top of everything. She was easily the highlight of the experience. Unfortunately, the food was on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. It honestly reminded me of a low-end hotel breakfast buffet. The buffet itself is very small with limited options. There was no fresh fruit bar, no waffle station, and no charcuterie or breakfast meat-and-cheese selection. They do offer cereal, but overall the selection felt underwhelming. The scrambled eggs on the buffet tasted like powdered eggs. To their credit, you can order freshly made eggs or an omelet from the kitchen, which is a much better option. The bacon was noticeably undercooked, although the sausage patties, potatoes and gravy were actually pretty good. Pancakes were awful. If you want toast, a bagel, or an English muffin, be prepared to run it through the conveyor toaster multiple times... about five passes before it was actually toasted. Overall, this place is in serious need of an upgrade. With so many outstanding breakfast restaurants nearby, I'd recommend spending your time at one of those instead. Even if you have to wait an hour for a table, you'll likely end up with a much better meal. read more

Almost all of the breakfast buffet tasted terrible. Not even the chocolate milk was good.

We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning before our cheer competition. It wasn't busy and we were sat right away. Adults are $13.95 per person and children 12 and under $8.95 per person. There were about 9-10 items in the hot bar. Also offered was toast, bagel, yogurt, cup of fruit, cereal and milk. The coffee wasn't great- I liken it to bad hotel coffee. They were great at keeping it hot with refills. Shedrick was memorable In making our visit as good as possible. Plates were picked up quickly and everyone was so friendly! Unfortunately the food was mostly pre-done....(example, powdered eggs over freshly scrambled. Just no. Why do a breakfast buffet and not just freshly scramble and cook eggs??? But you can ask for a freshly made omelette.) The food was all fresh and hot, but like I said, all pre-done. The french toast sticks were pre-done, not freshly made, biscuits too. The gravy seemed prepared and warmed. The grits were seasoned super well though. And the set up was poor in that it took twice as long to go through the buffett line the way it was set up. If they rework the set up it would be more people friendly. I would give this place 5 for service and friendliness and cleanliness and 2 for the food. read more

We live very close, but this was our first time here. We wanted a breakfast buffet within walking distance and other options weren't open. We were seated immediately and the server came over right away to get our drink orders, she was friendly and helpful. The ambiance is nice, pleasing decor. Have to say it was okay but not outstanding. On the positive side, the French toast and the biscuits and sausage gravy were excellent. The bacon was plentiful and had some cooked crispy and some less so, so something for everyone. On the less positive side, the scrambled eggs, sausage links, and sausage patties were all overcooked and dry. Other than a few whole oranges, there was no fresh fruit. Might go back if we were really hungry and didn't want to go far, but will more likely look to other options. read more

Kevin our server was great, good personality and very attentive however the food selection was very disappointing they had about 9 items that were dry and not fresh. They had no bagels while we were here at 930am on 8/12 Not worth the 60 plus for my family of 5 a rip off honestly read more

Thank goodness it was free vouchers or I would not have eaten there, in fact we left 2 or 3 on counter at checkout. We only found out the last day we could have had made to order eggs/omelets but only from a guest not 1 staff member. The food options on the buffet were just average so we opted to eat in our room. read more

Nice little breakfast included with most stays at the Breakers hotel branch. The server we had both time was very friendly. As for the food it's nothing much just standard breakfast buffet. But there a few really good items like the potatoes, biscuits and grits. Worth checking out if you have the free tickets. read more

I actually figured I'd just try it out, though the reviews were bad. My first impression was it looked like a hotel buffet, and it was LOL, for the Breakers. Having said that I was at a different hote, half a mile away and walked by this place. The server Cedric was AMAZING. Standard items on the buffet, but what made it even better is you can order fresh made to order eggs and toast. Included in the total of 13.31 with tax you get coffee, oj, chocolate milk, definitely a GREAT deal for a quick breakfast. Personally, I love the grits at Waffle House, these were even better read more

Pretty good food and especially bacon. Man, it was good. Only bad thing is that the coffee wasn't that great. Service makes for this.

Yall cannot get a better fresh breakfast buffet along Ocean Boulevard. Beautiful inside, clean and food top notch

I mean, this was a great breakfast buffet considering all we had to leave was a tip. For staying at The Breakers resort, we were given breakfast for 2 daily for free here. We ended up going twice out of 4 mornings (we slept too late the last day and another day we wanted to focus on lunch somewhere instead). Our son is 3 and he was free so this worked out perfectly. The buffet was well managed. Food was promptly refilled at the slightest sign that it was running low. Easy layout to follow. Tons of choices. My husband really loved the grits. The waitstaff was really attentive as well. You are even offered to-go cups to take a cup of coffee, oj or something to drink with you. Hence, if you're staying at The Breakers, be sure to fuel up here for your day. read more

Food here was ok at best even better because we had vouchers from the hotel we were staying at so our meal was free. Food was hot and didn't leave hungry but don't expect some crazy hotel buffet being like you cooked at home, it's quick and easy food to get the day going. read more

The buffet food was dry and cold and the man cleaning off the tables was talking to everyone and wearing his mask on his chin. They seated people way too close and then sat a table right next to us with four kids who would touch our table and with COVID nothing got cleaned. Not the place to go during these questionable times. We are not squeamish but even this place made me question eating out. read more

This was genuinely the worst breakfast I has ever eaten. I ate here when I stayed at The Breaker's Resort. I imagine that it is somehow apart of there entire entity. However- the menu suggests that you can order items a lacarte but you cannot. They only offered buffet when I went here and that was really cheap and basic. I wanted to order an stack of hot pancakes and eat some fresh eggs... but instead only after I sat down did I find out that the buffet was the only option and that the food was horrifying. I mean its breakfast not rocket science. Grits were watered down, biscuits were not warm or buttery, bacon was paper thin and french toast was mushy. read more

Our family visited Myrtle Beach and experienced Papa's restaurant. Breakfast was great & the restaurant was clean. The food was fresh. Their employee named Kiesha was the best. She was professional, kind, & helpful. She knows a lot about great customer service! I want her Manager to know. Lastly, I look forward to returning to Myrtle Beach and Papa's restaurant. read more

Well where to start... for the price they charge there should be fresh fruit, not fruit cups, the eggs are liquid eggs not real, had to ask for real eggs. Also the pancakes are not homemade I picked up the pancake and started pulling it apart to eat it and the half of it was hard as a rock literally the biscuits were hard and over cooked. The waitress was lovely she was very helpful and accommodating to us. As far as going back NO WAY! I would suggest going to the Coffee House Eats and Treats 9th Ave., on the boardwalk. Great menu and the food is fresh made to order great prices!! read more

Not much from the outside, but inside the food is great, buffet style. The staff are friendly and fast. Prices are good. If your looking for a great place for breakfast, Papa's is the place. Next time I am in Myrtle beach, I know where I am having breakfast. read more

We ate here numerous times during our week-long stay at The Breakers Resort. Our package included free breakfasts so that was nice! This was a great breakfast buffet! I was actually shocked by some of the negative reviews! I thought it was excellent and the staff were AWESOME! Really, even if the food was terrible (which it totally wasn't), the staff deserves 5-stars!!! I LOVED the selection of breakfast items: Scrambled eggs, hash browns, biscuits and gravy, sausage, bacon, pancakes, a "special" item which hanged daily (ex. kielbasa sausage with peppers and onions -my personal favorite, a frittata, what looked like dirty rice(??). They also had a fresh waffle maker, assorted breads, bagels, muffins, pastries, cereal, fresh fruit, boiled eggs, oatmeal, etc. There was a wait each time we came but it never was too lengthy. There was plenty of seating while we waited. We highly recommend! read more

The food is good but ultimately there is one server who is the greatest. We go stay at Breakers hotel to get the free breakfast just to see him. I keep forgetting his name but he is the most kindest person I ever met!!! read more

I took a look at the buffet and decided to order breakfast off the menu instead. My veggie omlete came out hot and fresh as did my delicious fruit cup and hash browns (which were hot with just the right amount of crunch) It was nothing fancy but it wasn't greasy and was the perfect start to my day! read more

Thank goodness it was free... I would have hated to pay for any of the food there. Everything was watered down and bland. My husband says it's reminds him of the USMC mess hall...or the ship when options are low. The staff was nice and the fresh fruit and sliced tomatoes were the highlight of our visit. read more

We had the free breakfast included with our hotel stay and we decided to give it a shot-very good buffet- fully stocked and friendly waitstaff. The bad reviews must be from prima Donna's that complain about anything and everything! read more

Our server was great. The food quality not so much. The eggs were the "fake" kind that are sold to a lot of restaurants which is a watered down egg product. The gravy needs sausage and some sage, which would make the flavor much better. Our server offered me a coffee to go, which was very thoughtful. read more

This place went above and beyond to me. This breakfast buffet was delicious and the staff was on the ball. They lag a little on the refills, but I believe they were a server short during my stay at breakers. Even overwhelmed, they were extremely courteous and helpful, although perhaps not with each other. They get really busy but I just can't bring myself to four star them. The food stayed fresh and yummy and full until near the end. [Note to business, please label syrup container. The current situation caused confusion to my family and plenty of other groups and even a cook (who was still polite)] read more

Solid breakfast buffet! This spot is located across the street from The Breakers Resort and if you are staying there is very convenient. The package I booked for The Breakers included a daily breakfast at Papa's so we eat there just about every day for breakfast. A few of the days there was a wait of 15 minutes or so to be seated as we walked in around 10am and they soft close at 10:30am but, most of the days we got right in without waiting. The buffet features bacon, pancakes, biscuits with gravy, do it yourself waffles, sausage links or patties (depending on the day of the week) breakfast potatoes or hash browns (depending on the day of the week) grits, scrambled eggs with chicken fajita meat and salsa, fruit, muffins, English muffins, toast, different boxes of mini cereals, and apple, orange, grape and cranberry juice. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. I never saw particular item run out as they were consistently bringing out more food. My favorites were the waffles as they come out so pillowy soft, those amazing biscuits, and the creamy grits. The sausage and bacon were cooked perfectly each day also. We had the same server just about every morning and she always took good care of us and even provided us with to go cups of sweet tea everyday at no charge. They also offer a regular breakfast menu if the buffet is not your thing. For $10 per person it's a pretty good deal for a quick breakfast. I highly recommend them. read more

Good food and nice people , I went there to eat with my daughter and everyone was very helpful and the place was clean

The food was good. I love the variety that the south is known for. We don't have restaurants like this in New York. I had Spanish rice, egg and cheese quiche, fresh made waffles and bacon for breakfast wow! for $10 and I didn't have to wait! Although, it's not the healthiest breakfast you can find. Who wants healthy when you're on vacation? read more

All the talked that The Breakers Resort hyped up...Papa's did not measure up to the hype!! I was all excited because I am a pancake lover and I could immediately tell that they weren't going to be good... They were thick, dry and tasted like flour...didn't taste like pancakes at all! The sausage was nasty as well and the bacon had no taste! Won't ever go there again! read more

Papa's Restaurant - Yuck - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

We went to this restaurant for breakfast on our most recent stay in Myrtle Beach due to it's proximity to our hotel room. We were able to be seated right away, which honestly on a Saturday morning should have said something to us. Most of us chose to have the buffet breakfast which was barely a step above the free continental breakfast offered at Holiday Inn Express. There are way better places not that far away so do yourself a favor and drive or walk a half mile to a mile south on Ocean Blvd and hit up one of the pancake houses. read more

Great place that is associated with the Breakers Resort. We had free breakfast coupons for every morning we went which was awesome. Food and service was good. Lots of different food options which is good with two small children. Gets busy between 7:30-8:30 but that's b/c of all the golfers getting breakfast before their tee times. Would definitely go back. read more

This restaurant was good, but average. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast buffet had a good selection, but it was basic Southern breakfast foods. Food quality was average. It would be nice if they had cappuccino and latte style coffee beverages in addition to plain coffee. read more

I'm visiting from Chicago and very picky. Ate there this morning on my way to the airport. We chose the $8.95 buffet. Fruit, eggs, potatoes, grits and waffles were excellent! I ate so much, I couldn't even drink my orange juice which was included! Service was fast! Place is very clean! read more

Papa's is part of The Breakers resort complex. Named for Ernest "Papa" Hemmingway inside is decorated like your eating with a island plantation owner. Old fishing rods and reels and island murals and palm trees adorn the walls. Enter and your greeted by a friendly hostess who seats you We had breakfast here each morning as part of our room package. A very large, above average buffet, with everything breakfast and a special feature each morning, such as Monday they had fajita fixin's and I made myself a fajita omlet, YUM! They also have a fruit bar, waffle maker, bagles, ect. and if you don't want the scrambled eggs on the buffet, they will fix your eggs to order or make you an omlet. Some great seasoned home fries and corned beef hash too. Plus Friday featured my favorite, country ham! Service was friendly and very attentive. Stacey was fantastic and we asked to be seated in her section each morning. She would go out of her way to get you anything you wanted and would take time to stop and chat with you as well. Coffee cups never got more than half empty before refills arrived and plates were cleared promptly. She also thanked us each day when we left. Her service was so good I wanted to leave her an extra large tip and I did!! I hope Stacey is there when we go back. Upon leaving the hostess also thanks you and tells you to have a great day. I don't often rave about a restaurant like this, but the food and service earn this place the five stars and then some!! read more

Good breakfast buffet. Service was prompt and the staff did a good job keeping it stocked. It was clean, good food, and convenient. We ate there 3 times and had good consistent service every time. read more

Lots of variety for the breakfast buffet, however, the food is of the lowest quality. I'm talking bottom of the barrel - from the eggs made from powder to the "fresh" canned fruit cocktail. If you don't mind swimming in grease to start off your day, This is the place for you. read more

Excellent service and not a bad buffet of breakfast foods for the price. Better than some other local breakfast places for sure. Very clean and prompt seating. read more

Very basic restaurant. Waiter was lovely and restaurant seemed clean until we made our way to the "buffet". Along with clean plates we found 2 very dirty plates that got gravy ALL OVER my youngest son. When I let an employee know she did not even apologize. Food was below average and not worth the price. read more

Have to give this one negative stars. Not only was the food terrible, everything was bland and chemically tasting even the fruit but the friendly service never seemed to be around when you needed something. To top it off I was modestly nursing my infant and was asked to cover her head or move to the back room. Wow. Backward. We are now 10 minutes after the meal and we all have stomach aches and are trading turns in the bathroom. Bad does not describe this restaurant! read more

Unimpressed. Food bland. Needs seasoning. Hash browns were tough. Southern style biscuits and gravy were terrible. I would recommend finding a different place for breakfast. read more
