    "Griz" breakfast. Barely warm, just the way no one wants their breakfast to be.

    After waiting for a table for 40 minutes, the host told us that they had made a mistake, and we should have been seated sooner. They promptly took our order, seemingly to remedy the situation; however, it took another 40 minutes for our food to actually get to our table. When it did arrive, the entrée was lukewarm and the hashbrowns piping hot. Extremely disappointing, at best. This used to be a favorite breakfast place for my wife and I, but after this, I would strongly recommend others to go somewhere else instead.

    EXTERIOR // Located within a steep mall. Plentiful parking. INTERIOR // Nothing special, but you're not here for the decor. Basic table and booth seating. Seats are worn, and you'll eventually slide into the cut that so many other people have worn down. FOOD // Decent. I suggest the pancakes .... Hence the name. Eggs are meh and wait staff always seems, we'll frantic. I fins it rude to place someone else's dirty dishes on your table. I guess it's all about the $$$ I ordered a LG OJ. Never got it. They still charged me for it. The whole meal did not come out of the same time. I had to wait on my toast separately. SERVICE // If you're a large party, you have much better chance of having Timely service. If you come in by yourself, it's a crap shoot best of luck to you. OVERALL// if you're nearby and you stumble across it, it's a decent place to grab a bite to eat. However I wouldn't go out of your way to look for it if you're ever in the state. Far better options that meet all the criteria on a regularly balanced and consistent basis. As always before providing any kind of a negative review, I tried this place more than once. I really wanted to like it.

    First time here. Decided to grab brekky before I hit the road. Had to go Paul's sampler since it's a pancake parlor right? Comes with four types: sourdough (I liked the bit of tang form this one), blueberry (standard but nothing spectacular), chocolate (see blueberry description) and a classic buttermilk. All were solid and I liked that they were a good size, not huge so I was able to enjoy all four. Also added a side of two link sausage (8/10). Overall great diner type vibes. Next time all try one of their non pancake offering as they had a few other breakfast items that caught my eye.

    This was a pretty cool experience. I had the breakfast special, a couple of pancakes, an egg and two slices of bacon for 10ish dollars. The food was tasty, the wait staff was attentive and polite. The restaurant itself was a bit dark and felt more like something i would find in New York. All to say, a pleasant surprise, and definitely checkout the bookstore next door.

    Update: I am happily updating our experience. The owner Mike reached out to us for feedback which I appreciated, and he made it right so Thank You! On our next visit, our server was great and the food was quick and hot. The chicken fried steak was great and the pancakes wrapped around the pigs in a blanket were delicious.

    The help moved this cart in my area, then proceeded to vigorously sweep mountains of trash, dust and debris in my face.

    In the sea of competing breakfast places here in Missoula, I opted to go here because at least they don't obsess on Mexican oddities, such as burritos or tacos for breakfast. We don't need those. Here, the emphasis is on waffles and pancakes. Whereas I was expecting the waffle to be like a Belgian one, thick and an accompanying, crispy exterior, It wasn't. Unfortunately, I found the waffle to be ordinary, thin, and soggy. Low budget syrup. Orange juice: store bought and cheap, not close to fresh squeezed. Bacon tasted fine and was prepared well. Service was fine. Gawdy, tacky interior with the most unpleasant lighting i've ever witnessed in a restaurant. And that's saying something. One notable problem: the staff rolled the busboy cart out of its area and proceeded to ***vigorously*** sweep all of the day's dust, filth, trash, etc., into the air, and instead of dumping the full dust pan into the trash--somewhere away from the customers--instead, into the little trash can on the bus cart, just 2-3' away from other customers and me. My nose is now itching and I'm sneezing. This sort of heavy cleaning is non hygienic, causes airborne hair, dust and debris to land in people's clothes, food and person. It's also super tacky and inconsiderate. He should have waited to do that until after closing. Overall, this could be a wonderful breakfast option. It's just devoid of high quality ingredients and caters to a mediocre segment. Pricing is fair for what is being served.

    Local decor to enjoy. Service was friendly. Sourdough pancakes aren't for everyone. If you don't know, get the sampler stack. Good coffee. It was a worthy breakfast choice during vacation.

    I dined at Paul's Pancake Parlor when I was visiting Missoula for the first time. It was one of the only breakfast spots with a lot of raivng reviews. We had to wait a little before getting seated, so we checked out the bookstore next door. When we got seated, the waitress greated us with a smile and took good care of us. The breakfast portions are huge and very good value. We left feeling stuffed for the rest of the day. I got the biscuit with gravy and they were delicious and done well. Overall, this is the place to go for great breakfast in Missoula!

Beer choices are a nice variety, I like trying local beers and this gave me choices. Both burgers were outstanding, a little thicker than what you expect from a "smash" burger but this means they are giving you a good amount of food for a very fair price. (I did double the patties both times because I'm not really a sides person.) Just know that if you do this you may not want fries too, it's a lot of burger. The burgers have great flavor and the people working there are great. It's on our list of "go there at least once per trip places" for Missoula. I really enjoyed eating there, it's not fancy, it's good food with nice people at a reasonable price. If it were local to me we would know each other by name.
