I have been wanting to try this restaurant out for a long time now. We finally hit the bullet and went in a Sunday. The wait was only 20mins and we were told it's usually 2hrs especially during the busy summer season. We ordered omelettes, pancakes, French toast and everything was so good!! Definitely a great spot for breakfast/brunch. They have lots to choose from and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Great spot on oceanfront. read more

as a local , this is a place that i've always passed while down the oceanfront and wanted to try, but never got the opportunity bc they were closed (they close at 1p). me & my fam decided to check this out after checking out of our hotel . and i will definitely say , it was so worth it. when you walk in, it gives the vibe that you've walked into a cabin. decorations were kind of all over the place, but ..that's not why i was there . our server was on point . super friendly. now on to the food, i ordered a white grape juice, the turkey bacon omelette with cheese & spinach and got the side of pancakes. the food came out pretty quick. the food was an absolute hit. the omelette was delicious, but the pancakes ... amazing ! i think they put vanilla or something in them. superb. read more

Pocahontas Pancakes - Turkey Bacon Omelet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

This a good breakfast place, but it's a churn and burn type of place. You must have your whole party present to be sat. One of the hostess was very adamant about that. We had to squeeze into our table and they even asked to squeeze tighter so that the party next to us could sit. So be prepared to be in close proximity to others. I can't say I was impressed by the food. The bacon was crispy, but the sausage was mediocre. The breakfast potatoes were not like your typical square breakfast potatoes you usually get at most places. They were more like boiled potatoes that were sort of stir fried after, but most of them were very soft and not crispy and very plain. The servers were friendly and are the main reason why I gave them 3 stars. Overall, I think this is a huge tourist spot that is overhyped. read more

Tourist breakfast staple along the VA Beach boardwalk, very good pancakes and really good coffee. Very loud when busy and currently has construction across the street that shakes the restaurant. Server was very attentive and personable. read more

We walked in on a Saturday morning at 8 AM. It was busy but had several tables to choose from. Definitely a local joint right across from the beach. Waitress came within three minutes to take our order . They have a wide variety of whatever you want, including gluten-free waffles, gluten-free pancakes, and a healthy menu.. if you're severe celiac, they do cross contaminate in the kitchen. The tables are very close together, but it's a fun place and it's great for kids. Emma was our waitress and was super helpful, quick and lovely! read more

Went here Saturday morning around 9:30 am and there was a line almost wrapped around the building. Mind you, they open at 7 lol. It was just 2 of us so we thankfully only had a 20-25 minute wait. Once we got in there, the inside was very very tight and it was overly packed. Every table was filled. I really don't like seating like this because we were right elbow to elbow to the people next to us on each side and basically hearing each other's conversations. I also don't have what my mom would call a "mother's ear" yet lol so being sat next to a little baby who was crying the whole time, wasn't fun at all (2/10). Our food came out fairly quickly, which was nice. I ordered the Nutella Belgian waffle combo that came with eggs, bacon, and sausage and I ordered a side of home fries (7/10). There was no seasoning on the eggs or the home fries so they were both very bland. My original two pieces of bacon were pitiful looking, but the waitress noticed that herself while handing me my plate and took the initiative to bring me two extra pieces of bacon, so thank you for that. We also had the Spanish scramble omelette that came with home fries and got pancakes on the side, again lacked in seasoning and def needed some spice. Overall, I feel like the place is a popular local spot maybe even a little overhyped than it needs to be. I do plan to come back and try some their other menu items and see if I'm still feeling the same way. The wait time, though, comparing to what I saw other people doing, seems very long and not really worth it. I probably will not come with a group next time just so I'm able to avoid the long wait times again. My overall rate of experience : 5/10 read more

We came around 8ish and had to wait at least 20 mins. Breakfast food was amazing, just something about American breakfast and hot coffee just hits the spot for me. I ordered the Belgian strawberry waffle with bacon, sauage, and eggs and that was delicious. It was missing a toast, should have order one on the side. The rest of the family enjoyed their food, I didn't hear any complaints. This place is busy but it moves so don't steer away if you see a long line and people waiting out front. Definitely a keeper! read more

No trip to Va Beach is complete unless you have breakfast at Pocahontas Pancakes. The food is consistently delicious. My go to is the pecan French toast. The coffee is amazing which is important since I drink it black. The staff is always friendly. It gets understandably busy in the summer but that makes it feel like a party! Plan to get there early! Take time to check out the murals while you're there. read more

Pocahontas Pancakes - 2 Eggs Any Style (scrambled), bacon and 1 piece of French toast w/ coffee. A breakfast under $15 dollars - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

It's a very diner vibe kind of restaurant, so if that's what you're looking for this is the perfect place!! They have a lot of menu items, so just be prepared to not know what to order. I ordered the strawberry topped pancakes and corned beef hash with 2 eggs and french toast. Total came up to be around $27 surprisingly. Service was also good and staff were friendly!! Highly recommend, especially right after a walk on the boardwalk! PSA: you might have to walk a bit because of parking!! read more

Cute spot for breakfast or brunch right off the beach walking path. The place does fill up fast but they provide a little buzzer and it moves fast. We only waited about 5 minutes. I went with the turkey avocado BLT. It came with tons of fries and was amazing. They have plenty of bread options and I went with sourdough. Great service and nice staff. Pay up front on your way out. read more

The place was packed but still only about a 20-30 minute wait. Once we got seated, the server greeted us quickly and was super friendly. Our drinks stayed full, both water and coffee. The food was well worth the price. For $14 I got the #1 Special (2 eggs, 2 bacon, 2 sausage, 2 pancakes and 2 French toast). Most everything was great. Actually the pancakes were my least favorite. A little dry and tough. The French toast was perfect and the sausage was the right amount of spice and flavor. Definitely worth trying again for all the other menu items. read more

I am from out of state so we used Yelp to find a breakfast place. Pocohontas Pancakes had ample seating in a traditional breakfast restaurant environment. A nice menu and real good service. Food quality was good, our server kept freshening our drinks and the food was out quickly and was hot. Overall good value and overall experience. We went back twice so I would recommend a visit. read more

Good portion and classic flavors. The inside is very on theme to the name of the restaurant, service was fast. Food is exactly what you'd expect, nothing to rave home about but still good. read more

The door and service is always great when I visit. This time, I could not make up my mind and the server was truly patient and kind enough to stand there and assist me for the ultimate meal for the time being That energy is what I get each and every visit. The food never disappoints and hot & fresh. The artwork is not new for me, while it feels great to see authentic art from our culture represented-- despite the truth behind the name. I love this place. read more

This is my second (and fourth if you count the two Google reviews I have wrote for this place). I cannot emphasize the greatness of this place enough. Not only is the food (especially pancakes, French toast, and waffles) fantastic but the service is first class. While there is a wait can be long this place has it down to a science. They get you in so FAST. My only complaint is the need another location closer to me!! Would come back 100 times over. Shoutout to MJ from Hollywood Studios for taking such great pictures! read more

Pocahontas Pancakes - Plain Belgium waffle - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Come hungry, leave stuffed. So I got this recommendation from a buddy of mine and he warned me about the serving sizes. Looking over at a patron's pancakes, it's true. Yea they are pretty insane and surprising priced. I chose to get the crab cake eggs Benedict and side of hormel Italian sausage. The Benedict was packed with real crab and the eggs were done just right. The yoke just dripping out after you puncture it, is a really nice sight. The sausage wasn't greasy and had flavor. I do wish they served toast with the meal to soak up the yoke but I used the potato hash. There are two price payment systems. Pay with cash, no surcharge. Pay with card, get a CC charge. Service was spot on. I was seated right away and Stephanie, my server, was polite and checked on me throughout the meal. And it was nice to get a small conversation with her after checking on the other patrons. Overall four stars. Service was great and the decor is an absolute conversation item. The food servings are larger than usual but the seasoning was average. Price wise well within reason. Come again for the food, stay for the smiles. M read more

Fantastic place for breakfast in Virginia Beach. Portions are great as is the service and the prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend.

The pancakes here are amazing and WAY too big (which is a good thing). The Staff are amazing and very friendly. The decor is very interesting and cool to just look around and look at all the Native American decorations. If you're in Virginia Beach, it's a must! read more

Pocahontas Pancakes - Buttermilk Pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Pocahontas Pancakes was within walking distance of our hotel, so we decided to check it out! There was a short wait. We both ordered lunch options. I had the corned beef, and it was phenomenal! The fries were delicious and there were plenty of them. I found the service to be above and beyond. Our waitress noticed that I had somehow tucked the hem of my dress under the chair leg and discreetly pointed it out to me so I wouldn't fall when I got up. read more

Visited on 4/3-5/2026 and loved the food. Depending on the time you go (close to or later than 10am) you may expect a nearly 20 minute wait The plates are well prepared, they have plenty of choices, and the food amount is generous. Ambiance ties closely to its name and there is thematic decoration all around the restaurant. It does feel a bit crowded but if you don't mind that, it's well worth the visit. The prices are also very reasonable. We went back there during our stay after a not-so-exciting-to-our-tastebuds experience in a fancier place. Definitely recommended. read more

This place serves the best breakfast in Virginia Beach. It is one of the staple restaurants that I must have whenever I am in the area. I usually get the waffle combo with Efesto's pecan banana and strawberry waffle. I love the amount of waffle toppings and the thickness of the waffle. The batter is flavorful with a very nice waffle design and the toppings that bring the whole meal together. The crab meat eggs Benedict is made with real crab which is something they pride themselves on! The staff is very friendly. They have always provided me with great service and the food comes out fast even though they are always pretty busy. Add this place to your itinerary right now, you will not regret it! read more

A very homely friendly place. Service is always with a smile and a little longer chitchat. Large portioning - you can surely share one dish and just add a side. We came in during winter and I've been in this restaurant during beach season, it was empty not but glad to know they served the food without delay or short cutting labor. Hence, five stars. Come visit during an off beach/summer season. If you're in the area during summer, come early and be prepared to wait. read more

I arrived here at 12:10pm on a Sunday afternoon with my sons while on vacation. I entered in the back way via the parking garage. There is only 1 row of parking for the restaurant and the rest is for the apartments. PACKED was an understatement. The tables are fairly close together with little room in between. If you enter from the back entrance, you must walk through the restaurant to the front to check in. I was told there would be a 20 or so minute wait for my party of 3. There were few parties I saw waiting in the waiting area when I arrived. I was given a buzzer thing. It went off at 12:22pm. The waitress came at 12:26pm. She didn't introduce herself, which is always a pet peeve of mine. It takes 2 seconds to say "My name is...". She took our drink order, which we all got waters. We ordered at 12:35pm. My boys got the kids pancake with scrambled eggs. One got bacon and the other got sausage. They both got Reese's as a topping for their pancakes. They got hot chocolate to drink. I got the breakfast sampler with pancakes and half Belgium waffle with a side of home fries and hot chocolate. The hot chocolate came 2 minutes later. I don't expect it to come that fast. It was DELICIOUS! Our food came at 12:47pm. My boys enjoyed their meal. My youngest (8) didn't finish his but the oldest (10) did. The bacon and sausage were delicious! My pancakes and waffle were overcooked, in my opinion. Syrup made my pancakes taste fine. My waffle on the other hand, was just hard. I didn't complain or bring it up because I had gotten full. I tried my home fries and they were just okay, for me. Ketchup made it taste better. We were done by 1:10pm. Most of the restaurant had cleared out by that time. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and/or helpful. They engaged well with my sons. When you're done eating, you will receive your bill but pay at the entrance. They do have free peppermints and I grabbed one on my way out. I liked the Pocahontas theme throughout. It was very interesting. read more

Brandi, she's a fine girl, although she didn't serve us whisky and wine but she served a nice cup of Joe and hot tea, with a smile! Pocahontas Pancakes, Pancakes guys is an understatement! This stack of pancakes was crazy tall and delicious! Pumpkin pecan, loaded with pecans, just in time for the fall, very moist and delicious. (Did I mention the pancakes were loaded with pecans!?) I indulged on the scrapple, new on the menu. It was perfectly prepared, crisp on the outside and moist with a sausage like flavor on the inside. With pancake syrup just like I remember from my younger days. The eggs tasted more farm raised than store bought and the fried potatoes were fair. (I like mine with a little onion but I know others may not so if you consider that, for those who don't like onion the potatoes were good.) As I mentioned, Brandi was on top of her game. She kept an eye on our needs for refills and checked in on us frequently. The seating is tight but maneuverable. Hope y'all are in for a treat and come hungry because there's a lot of food on the plates! read more
