We eat at Perkins about once a week. Their soup and half sandwich special is great. I've tried all 3 soups, but my favorite is tomato basil. We also enjoy eating breakfast and usually go for the 55+ menu. We do have a favorite waitress, but all except one are very good. read more

Saw the road sign on I-80 for Perkins and had to stop. All the ones near me closed so seeing an open Perkins was like spotting Bigfoot. Restaurant was not busy at all but we were there at 3:15 so late for lunch and early for dinner. Restaurant was very clean including the windows. We were seated at a spacious booth immediately. We both knew what we wanted so only casually glanced at the menu. There was an entire selection of breakfasts and entrees for seasonal strawberries. Rest of the menu was the usual casual dining fare like breakfasts, sandwiches and meatloaf, etc. Food came out very quickly. Except for the toast, it was all hot and fresh. Toast was OK but the butter was not melted. Pancakes were amazing! Server was personable, not obtrusive and was attentive. One of the manager stopped by and we had a nice chat about the changes the company has been through and the closure of the stores near my area. Next time I have a hankering for the Tremendous Twelve, I would have no problem traveling the 50 miles one way to this Perkins for one. read more

Breakfast before the road trip back And this lil Perkins did a good job this morning we ordered steak and eggs blue berry pancakes brioche french toast eggs and ham and bacon. Our server Marcy was great and attentive she kept our coffee cups full and the check in often. The ambiance was serene quiet and Pleasant as people filtered in the severs were immediately addresses and attended to so must say that this place had it together as one of the few breakfast digs. read more

I used to work in a Perkins when I was in high school and have such fond memories. We stopped in to break up a long drive. I ordered an omelette with hash brown potatoes and pancakes. My omelette was half the size that it used to be with the most pathetic side of incredibly greasy hash browns. The pancakes have also shrunk over the years, which is ok since they were always enormous and too much for me to eat. My kids ordered the boston cream pancakes - they enjoyed the fluffy eggs that came with them although my son ordered over easy and received scrambled. The pancakes were insanely sweet as one would expect. The service was good and the restaurant looked very similar to all of the other Perkins restaurants. Just meh this time. read more

Use a real hollandaise sauce on the eggs Benedict. Potatoes were ok. Waitress was good. read more

We stopped in here for a quick early dinner while we were traveling. My husband had a really nice steak and potato skillet dish and I had the homestyle meatloaf that was served on top of some really good mashed potatoes (and topped with a handful of fried onions and french fries!). I chose the green beans with bacon as my side - the green beans were a bit stringy but still good. We also both had side salads that were definitely worth the ten dollar price tag. We were there around 4 on a Friday and by the time we left, the restaurant was pretty packed. The service was great as well. Overall, a solid visit. read more

Brought the check with our meal! It felt like we were rushed. The services name was Jake. Won't be coming here again! read more

Typically sit down place for breakfast and lunch. Really would go just for breakfast. Kind of gives off brand IHOP vibes. Slow service when checking out. Could of just walked out if I wanted to.... read more

Wow! Walked right out after seeing that actual menu did not match the online version. Prices were much higher! I felt like we were about to become victims of bait and switch! Better value for a simple breakfast right across the street. Shameful! read more

My family and I waited 30 minutes and we saw our waitress one time and we had to get up and ask for her, we were not served drinks the hole time we waited, the two tables by us were both served food and drinks. This was by far the worst experience I have ever had at any dining place. read more

Years ago in the far away state of florida, perkins was a favorite. Today, at this location, the Tuscan chicken was rubbery. Chicken soup good though. Location aged and seats ripped and not fresh clean feel. Looks like the good reviews are for breakfast items, only? So chose carefully. read more

We ate there today for the first time. I has the potato pancakes and eggs. It was incredible!! For 2 people our total bill was $17.83. The portions were huge and very flavorful. read more

It's been 2 weeks since we ate here on our road trip across America and we are still talking about the Multi-Grain Blueberry Pancakes. At no other time in our lives, not in mama's or grandma's kitchen, not in the fanciest of dining establishment have we ever had better Blueberry Pancakes. This day, Perkins set the "gold standard" by which all other pancakes will be judged. We still crave the mounds of hot delicious blueberries that come out of the delicious multi-grain stack. It's better than the best desert we have ever had. Nothing we can do--sadly Perkins does not like the West Coast of the USA and there are no locations anywhere in California. :( But why not?? We also had a awesome Egg White Omelet with Spinach and Broccoli that is to die for. Perkins puts Dennys and IHOP and many other high end LA breakfast places to shame! And it's a shame that we are going to have to wait to get back to the mid-west to dine here again. Service at Perkins you want to know: Direct and matter of fact. They take the order and deliver the goods. That's it--it's Perkins. OMG! I am craving those pancakes again just writing this review... read more

Pumpkin spice pancakes were perfectly made. This restaurant offers fast and friendly service. Great job guys!!! read more

Me and my family waited over an hour and all we got were drinks this place take way to long if your hungry.

Wasn't expecting much when we arrived late on a Sunday morning en route from New York to Detroit. (Especially since I had gotten excited to eat brunch at the County Seat only to discover they are closed on Sunday.) But Perkins was absolutely fine, with friendly service, lots of choices, solid food and some healthy sides as choices on the kids' menu which I appreciated. (This allowed me to make peace with my daughter's choice of pancakes with rainbow sprinkles...) Only wish: grapefruit juice, which has apparently disappeared from the menu. Ah well. Oh - and the post-church lunch rush hit just as we were leaving at 12:30. So be warned... read more

Expected decent real egg omelet. Omelet tasted as if prefab eggs or maybe cooked in oil, not butter. Not good. Banana nut muffin good. During dinner they were vacuuming. Very unprofessional. Also cleaning cloths and cleaning spray bottle left on table next to us all during our meal. read more

Was surprised to find a Perkins. Always loved their skillets. My husband and I were both very happy with our meals. Nice friendly place with good food. I even had to take a piece lemon pie with me. read more

Stopped in here with my boyfriend and a friend while driving through PA.. Before we went in, we thought it was a family-run, Mom and Pop type place..but as soon as we got the menus we realized it was a Denny's/Ihop style joint (little bit of a letdown) Waiter was very friendly and food was surprisingly very good..but maybe we were just famished from our 6 hour car ride. their peanut butter silk pie should be considered the 8th deadly sin... they advertise themselves as a bakery too, so I'm pretty certain it was baked on site..sosososooo much sugar but so ridiculously good, we even took two slices to go. read more

It always takes awhile to get your food but its Well worth the wait, plus its always hot. We love coming here the service is also very good and upbeat! read more

Service was non existent. I didn't get all the food I ordered and gave up asking for it. My kid's sides had to be asked for and then were microwaved to make up for not delivering them in time. The steak medallions were tough, the mushrooms Tasted like refrigerator, and the mashed potatoes were chunky. Refills on drinks were offered when I asked for boxes. I informed the shift supervisor at checkout, he rolled his eyes and said oh it's her first day. I still paid for all the food I never received. We will not be back. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch or early dinner. We had a range from pancakes to chicken. Everything was great and our service was fast and friendly. I am glad we stopped here. read more

I asked for the food to be prepared without peppers. I received them wrong. When I tried to get the waitress's attention she just ignored us. No. How ya doing? No refill offer. NO TIP! read more

We were there yesterday for mid afternoon snack. I ordered the Country fried steak. Never again. Not only was it full of gristle, it was only 3/16 of an inch thick. If not for the 3/8 of an inch of breading in each side, it would not have existed. The fries were good and hot but the meal in itself was over priced for the tissue paper thin piece of meat. My wife ordered a Reuben, and had no complaint. As for me -- McDonald's the next time. read more

Food was good but when it came to dessert they Did not have two items that we wanted and server acted like oh well how can a place that specializes in dessert not have things on their menu read more

WOW IS THIS FOOD SALTY! Couldn't eat it, ended up leaving. Coffee was good though. I won't be back.

This restaurant is in need of a good cleaning and repair. There was a funky smell as we walked in and I was surprised that my husband didn't turn around and leave. However, I got my usual, The Everything Omelette, and it didn't disappoint. Delicious! Eggs not over done, hash browns crispy and toast completely buttered - not just a little dab in the middle. Just passing through so probably won't return. read more

My coworker and I had to grab breakfast before heading off to work (sorry hotel, but we had enough of the free continental breakfast....we wanted to chow down on some options). So, being 6am (and really not much to choose from), we drove the short distance to Perkins. We were seated right away, by a friendly but busy worker, who kind of hurried us along (thinking back now, I may not have been fully awake and competent at this point). We grabbed the menus and started deciding. Others came in, maybe a total of 4 other families. The waitress definitely knew the customers by name and asked them if they wanted their "regulars". Loyal fan of? Maybe. We both had breakfast platters, choosing French toast and Lemon Blueberry pancakes. It didn't take long for the meals to come out (I sure hope not, we were the only ones to start out in the restaurant!!). I was slightly annoyed that the coffee additions (creamers, sugar, etc) weren't replenished, even after I scooted them to the edge of the table as a friendly reminder. I mean, people need their coffee in the morning!! The food was nicely prepared, but lacked seasoning. I hate adding salt and pepper to my food, but had a heavy hand that morning, as my eggs and sausage did nothing for me taste buds. The French toast was sub par, as I have had wayyy better in my time, but, it was edible and we were in a hurry, so we didn't complain. It worked as a nice break up from the hotel continental,as that was getting a little old on our stay at Clarion, but would not make Perkins my regular stop for breakfast. read more

Best place around for omelets. Prefer eating here to eat n park, the breakfast potatoes are always great and I always end up getting an omelet it seems. It's not that their sandwiches and dinners aren't good, because they are, but I am pretty much always in the mood for breakfast when I'm at a diner type place. read more

Food was, of course, standard all-American Perkins fare, which served our needs fine. What impressed us most was the friendly, attentive service. This was a welcome end to a tough day of driving. read more

Slow service , she wasn't prepared to take our order. Some brown nasty lettuce in side Salad.

This is a very old Perkins, peeling wallpaper, etc. ordered food and waited 15 minutes for eggs. The lace was not busy. Never got our glasses of water or butter for our toast. Waitress was nice. Food was covered in butter. Ugh. read more

First and last visit here. Very pleasant server - Jodi. But food bland and poorly prepared. Rubber chicken, lousy soup, tasteless salad with heavy dressing. No liquor, which might have helped. Wouldn't risk dessert, based on meal. Little choice in this small town for discerning diners. read more

Decent enough chain breakfast. Nice & speedy waitress, and our food was out pretty quickly. We split a large & small breakfast -- plenty of food to keep us going for a long time on the road. It was hot and ok. Kind of salty -- typical of chain food. The entire place is a little run down. Especially the bathroom. read more

We travel from NYC to CHICAGO regularly. Always stop in Clarion to fill up with gasoline. Usually eat at McDonalds. Decided to try Perkins. The servers are nice but honestly the food is average at best. And this Perkins really needs to be modernized and cleaned up. It's basically one of the few places in the are where you can sit down. Probably should have gone back to McDonalds! read more

To be quite honest.....ok. The place is not in the best condition. The wallpaper is peeling and it is kind of sketchy. I had the strawberry creme crepes and they were fine. They weren't the best thing I have ever had...but not the worst. They were kind of chewy not allowing for that crepe feeling. The eggs were fluffy and pretty good (and they are real eggs, not powdered). Drinks were not great. Coffee not good. Iced tea not good. Service was fine, average. Gave you what you asked for. Nothing more, nothing less. Overall...ok. read more

We appreciated the Senior Night pricing and 55+ menu items. Tilapia and Steak entrees were well prepared, and the Strawberry Pie was outstanding. Our server Marcy was attentive and pleasant. read more
