    I highly recommend their pancakes which are huge and really good! Service was quick and staff was friendly. I can't wait to come back.

    Had the spanish omelet and scone! Food was great and service was quick and friendly. Coffee needs a bit of improvement. Would recommend.

    We enjoyed eating at Penny's Ann's café. The place was beyond crowded on a Monday morning. I got their pancakes, which I thought were kinda average. Their breakfast sausage was really delicious. This felt like a good place to go if you want breakfast diner food.

    Have eaten here many times and enjoyed the food. The coffee was not tasty and watered down. I ordered the breakfast skillet and was so disappointed. The potatoes they use are from a frozen bag, the green peppers and tomatoes were cut too big of chunks and the spinach was under cooked and chewy, the swiss cheese was chewy and not melted good. Seems like there food quality has gone down hill! Service was great!

    After 5+ years, we decided to give Penny Ann's a second chance. It's always highly rated but, the only time we opted to try it, the dining room was gross. I guess the second time is the charm. We got there 15 minutes after they opened. We got seated right away and the dining area was clean. They were also well staffed, I'm sure in preparation for a busy Sunday breakfast crowd. Our waitstaff was amazing. My bad, I should've gotten her name. The food was so good. My veggie bowl plus ham (I love veggies!), was outstanding. This is our new breakfast place!! Second time is the charm!!!

    Single stack pancakes with Dubai chocolate

    The service was great, me and my family were seated right away and there were a lot of people in there too. The place is clean and not too loud. My one complaint is there's only two single bathrooms with one toilet each. There's at least 50+ people there this morning and there was a line for them. They need bigger toilets. Now on to the food. I got a single stack of pancakes (2) and there is a special of Dubai Chocolate on top. I was surprised to see there was topping between the layer too. That was fantastic to see and the topping was flavorful on already fluffy buttermilk pancakes. The Dubai topping consists of toasted pistachios, chocolate sauce and some kind of crunchies. I took a picture of it. I would definitely get this again!! My family equally enjoyed their food so I want to give a shout out to the cooks....job well done!!

    My family love this place, every time they are in town, they want to come here. The fried bread and Dutch pancakes are one of the best in town. Ambience is the typical dining, simple and clean. Service is good. 4 stars because service is not consistent, but it's a place that I keep coming back with family.

    Chili Verde omelette and hotcakes.
    Jim W.

    Lucky the service was so good... the food? A disappointment from previous visits to PAC locations. Busy, kind of loud inside, not much to muffle the noise bouncing off the hard surfaces. I had the chili verde omelette with the hot cakes. The chili verde was off for me. Not what I expected and very thin, little pork, and the spice was just not right. The omelette was overcooked and rubbery, too many undercooked onions (and I love onion!). The potatoes were the standard cardboard texture Sysco type frozen... not hot. My pancakes were good size but again, over cooked and dry. Not my experience in the past but - it's how I see PAC now. It's always on my list to go when I come back home but may search alternatives next time.

    I love Penny Ann's! The locations in both Taylorsville and Draper are great I usually try something different each time, and I've never been disappointed. Their pancakes are absolutely amazing! The service can be a little hit or miss, but I've never had anyone ruin the vibe. It's one of my go-to spots to grab breakfast with family and friends whenever I get the chance

    I had a wonderful breakfast and experience at the café. The portions were large, and the quality of the food was fantastic. Great pancakes. The service was outstanding and very friendly. My coffee cup was never empty. It has a vibe of a classic diner, also very clean and well appointed.

    Penny Ann's is that diner feeling you just crave Some Sunday mornings. The wait is definitely worth it. The coffee was filled quite fast and with a smile all the time. The taste of that coffee is just what you would expect from This kind of place in a good way. What is overly frustrating at some breakfast spots is when the mugs are too small. These were the perfect size and style and one that I would consider purchasing on my own. These PAC Benedict was only ok in my opinion but only because it was my fault that I assumed it was a more generic Benedict. Just learn from me by reading the actual menu first. The pancakes were to die for as usual though. Give this place a shot and you won't regret it.

    Breakfast and brunch are great.

    Absolutely loved this place! The vibes are fun, modern, and energetic without feeling…read morecramped--super comfortable and spacious, making it the perfect spot for a brunch date with friends. The food? Chef's kiss. The Breakfast Sandwich was hands-down the star of the table, with perfectly crispy hashbrowns and the most delightful, velvety hollandaise sauce that tied everything together beautifully. The mimosa flights were a blast (variety + flavor = win), and the interactive donut bar added such a playful, indulgent touch to the experience. A live DJ kept the energy up and made the whole brunch feel like a mini celebration rather than just a meal. If you're looking for a lively brunch spot with amazing food, great drinks, and an upbeat atmosphere, this place absolutely delivers. Can't wait to go back!

    Went this morning around 10:30. Was not busy and were sat promptly. I am in a cast and using a knee…read morescooter, the tables are really close together and it was hard to get seated at the table and out. The entire restaurant doesn't seem handicapped friendly. It took a long time for the server to come take our drink order, another long wait to get her to take our food order, and a really long wait for the food to be served. She didn't come back to check on us or refill our drinks. I flagged her down to get a drink refill and we sat around a long time waiting for her to give us our check and pay. The savory dishes here are really sweet, we got the birria hash and biscuits and gravy. We didn't like the dishes bc of the sweetness. I'm glad I didn't eat anymore bc we currently both have food poisoning. It was our first meal of the day and I know it was from here. Update: We went here yesterday after my dr appt in the area. Husband and I were sick all day yesterday w food poisoning. He had to go back to work after we ate here and was sick at work all day and I was sick at home. With a cast on. This place is dangerous.

    I visited the location in Sandy, UT…read more Such a cute place. Loved the decor and the coffee/bar area. Food was great and the service excellent. I ordered the Truckers Breakfast with a cappuccino. Definitely shareable portions. They also serve your bill in a cute little book which you can share your experience or even silly thoughts!

    Our first visit was wonderful, and we even remarked that this might be our new go-to brunch spot…read more Unfortunately, our most recent visit for Mother's Day was the complete opposite. The service was uncomfortable and unpleasant, as we felt constant pressure to add extra items, making upselling seem like the priority rather than the dining experience. The server repeatedly pushed appetizers and suggested add-ons for nearly every dish without clearly explaining the additional charges. Even when we asked for recommendations, each dish came with an upsell (as suggestion to add something else to the dish), making us question whether the dishes were sufficient on their own. My wife was encouraged to add avocado to her Eggs Shakshuka, which turned out to be a $4 upcharge for half an avocado. I was ordering the Breakfast Burrito, which already includes bacon and several other ingredients, yet the server repeatedly encouraged me to add chorizo. When I finally asked if there was an extra charge, she confirmed there was. At that point, I became annoyed and changed my order to the fried rice, which I had enjoyed on a previous visit. The server then said the fried rice didn't come with a side and asked if I wanted to add fruit or something else. Based on prior experience, I knew the portion was already more than sufficient, as I hadn't even finished it on earlier visits. A few minutes later, the server returned and oddly asked, "Can I take your side dish, since you didn't order any appetizers?" - which felt both strange and an unnecessary comment. Our food was delivered by a different staff member. As we were taking our very first bite, the original server interrupted and said, "Now that you've taken a couple of bites, I just wanted to check how your food tasted," which felt awkward and poorly timed. We told her we'd let her know once we had actually taken a bite. Overall, this was not the experience we expected, and it's unlikely we'll be returning anytime soon.
