We went to Polly pies in Hemet with friends and family recently. And the only way that we would go back is if we went with our family again this is not somewhere we would wanna go on our own. Eve waitresses name was Tilly and she was outstanding. And most of the time you cannot blame the waitress for the food quality. I ordered the prime rib dinner and the prime rib was cold when delivered I ordered a medium well and it was well done and it was cold. The dinner rolls came out ahead of time and I was told that the way that they came very doughy was typical and I should've ordered the cornbread so next time if we happen to go with Family, I will order the cornbread. The mashed potatoes tasted like they were from a box. The gravy was good, but asked for extra gravy because the potatoes are very dry. The green beans tasted like they were from a can like. I said it was not the best the waitress again Tilly made it extremely nice. She kept my drink full my wife's drink full. My wife ordered the Asian chicken salad and she said that it was outstanding. The ambience is a typical pie restaurant type place to sit and eat. I gave it a four because of the waitress and her taking care of us all so well she put up with the other people that were there with us and they were a handful for her. read more

Value's not quite there, portion sizes are a little small for the price. Went with a sandwich this round and it tasted like a sandwich so it was OK I guess. Fries always need help make sure to pour salt and pepper on them. Place definitely serves a particular clientele over 60. Hope they realize they need to adjust to attract a younger audience and not service the people that want to play bingo while they're eating. Staff is alright, place is clean. Seating is quick as it's not that busy. Pricing $13 minimum per person w/out drink read more

Polly's was my favorite spot when I lived in town, but since I moved I have not been there in over 3 years. From the last time I visited this restaurant they renovated, and it looks really nice. We celebrated my mom's birthday there and were extremely impressed. Great deal when it's your birthday, definitely recommend to sign up for Polly's perks. All the food was delicious and my daughter loved her pancakes. The waitress was very kind and attentive. read more

Polly's Pies - Silly Face Pancake - Bakeries Near Me - Hemet, California

Such a cute little breakfast spot! Cozy diner vibes, super friendly service, and *everything* we tried was delicious. The pancakes were fluffy and perfectly golden, and the skillet was hearty, flavorful, and totally hit the spot. Definitely a place I'd come back to for a comforting breakfast! read more

It's Hit n Miss. sometimes it's good service and sometimes not. Maybe it's a constant turnover of people not sure.

Came in today craving the Salisbury steak plate @$15.99 and it did not disappoint. It was a tad on the greasy side but not to the point where it was overbearing. We ordered a build a burger for my husband. Rose and Linda are the young ladies helping us throughout our dining experience. My husband said from a 1-10 for his burger it would be an 8. This place can be described as an open dining area, a local eatery for down home cooked meals. The star of my meal today was the corn bread. Oh my goodness! I didn't even take a pic of it because I inhaled it lol. See ya next time! Come on down to Polly's for good old home cooked meal. read more

Went for dinner last night and ate the Tuna Sandwich special with pie. The tuna was good tasting, lots of eggs and crunchy celery. wish they had a better choice than french fries with the special. I ordered the Pumpkin Maple Crunch pie to go. Later on in the evening I started to eat the pie, but found it hard to cut into the pie because the crunch was toooo crunchy-had to eat pumpkin and crust and pick off the crunch. Not a good idea to combine these two. read more

Polly's is a consistently great place to break bread with friends. The place is clean. The service is friendly. The food is always tasty, especially their pies. read more

Had dinner here one night and our waitress was very nice, always checked on us and the food was yummy. Very enjoyable.

I drove over an hour to come here specifically for a pie that was listed as available on their website. When I arrived, I was told they did not have it. No explanation was given, just a flat "we don't have it." While I was looking at the menu displayed above, one of the workers told me not to follow that menu and handed me a different menu showing what they actually had available. I explained that the displayed menu and website both showed the pie I came for, and asked how customers are supposed to know what is actually available. Her response was, "You can just walk over here and look for yourself." I found this response rude and dismissive. Based on the lack of communication and the unpleasant interaction alone, I would not recommend coming here. read more

We eat out very often and we have our favorites here in town. Polly's has been slipping under our radar for a while now Tonight we went to Polly's, not really expecting it to be a good spot Boy were we wrong!! I had the large cut prime rib and Gracie had a pasta bowl, we each had a cup of "black burner " soup The atmosphere and service were exceptional. The food was so much better than anticipated that we were kicking ourselves for not going here more often We now have an additional favorite restaurant in town Thank each and every one of the employees for making our meal enjoyable read more

Just left, was seated the waitress never came to get the order. The service was horrible a waste of time.12/27 at 10:30.

Me and my bf go in pretty often. Food is always good, service sometimes can depend. We're always excited when we get tilly as our server she always goes above and beyond and super on it!! Deff the best waitress there read more

So family came from San Diego and we told them about Polly's cinnamon rolls and how great they are! Well family bought 2 orders and they were cold. ! Cold cinnamon rolls at 8am !!! We were shocked ! No way a bakery has cold rolls at 8am. So sad I read more

Waitress was rude as all heck and she doesn't deserve a tip .. cant blame it on a long day because we were having breakfast.. I'd defineltly put her on blast in this review but of course she has no name tag. read more

This place is so good!! Cannot go wrong for a great family meal with great service. I always get the chicken

I bought my favorite pie Banberry looked super fresh and got it home cut a piece and banana were brown and pudding was stiff and had a strange texture to it like curdled. Extremely disappointing since these darn pies are expensive at about 21 and change. Terrible. Do better Polly Pie. Whole pie is a waste. Seems stale on the first day I buy it read more

Food we could eat again. Pies well could not tell you for certain because the service was horrible. The waitress refused to sell me an Apple Pie or slice. Saying there was none because they were seasonal only. Huh.... it is apple season. Fyi.... there were "apple" pies in the front bakery counter. So I advise the cashier of what the waitress did. Also, the waitress got some of our order wrong. But luckily it wasn't big enough to make a deal about it. She never offered refills. The wait in between to obtain something was too long. And the cherry was actually at the start. The hostess did not technically sit us properly but we made it work and the came back requesting us to move. So we will not be returning. Lack of service and hospitality is out the window. To bad as I love pies. This is zero rating for us. read more

A Hemet favorite. Definitely the best pies. It's a nice sit down restaurant and I will give the waitstaff four stars, but you might be in luck and get a five star waitress. I've been dining here for years and have never had a bad meal. All of their breakfast, lunch and dinner entrees are excellent. Overall I think they do a great job and that they care about their customers. Very easy parking and seldom do you have to wait more than five minutes for seating. read more

This is our new favorite spot when my son and I come up to Hemet to visit Grandma. Love their weekend prime rib special, I love their side veggies include brussel sprouts. My mom loves their cornbread, and kiddo gets hyped up for root beer floats and pie. We've eaten here 5 or 6 times now and it's been consistently solid. Servers have always been on top of it and I've always felt like it was a good value for the portions and taste when he check comes. Please keep doing what you're doin, Polly's is becoming a family tradition read more

Two stars, would be one but they changed servers on us. We have been going here a few times based on our daughters recommendation. The first few times were good but over the last few visits it has seemed that they take advantage of regular visitors. One server (don't know her name) has the absolute worst work ethic! We've had her Terri tuned previous and each time service keeps getting worse. Today had to be a new low. No host/hostess available to seat us so this server sort of greeted and sat us, my wife asked if a booth was availed she sternly said no and sat us at a half booth tour table. My wife saw an open booth adjacent and asked about and the server mumbled something I couldn't hear. After we had been seated, she sat two people into the booth and were astonished to see we were lied to. We ordered and waited for our food, meanwhile I had a cup of coffee and WA's never offered a refill nor an urn of which I notched every one else had! Checkout time and the last at the counter asked me how things were I said not good but it appeared she couldn't care less! The management here needs to be replaced along with that one server, I actually saw get leaning on the booth taking a customers order, now I've been around customer service as my wife has also and that's a no no but not at Polly's I guess! Needless to say we won't be back for a very long time! read more

The food was good as well as the service. The only criticism would be the amount of fries varied from plate to plate...one plate had a lot, one had very little. The pie was yummy as always. I love the summer because of the sunnylicious pies...cheesecake topped with lemon curd & whipped cream. The best part of the evening was playing Bingo (we were unaware of it). We had so much fun! We will definitely be back!! read more

Polly's pies is always been great in our community. The old-fashioned restaurant represents comfort food, hard-working people and a family business ran well. The service is always been great. The people there worked very hard to please. Great fresh food and desserts. read more

Yesterday I ate alone at Polly's and had the worst service. It was 2:30pm, place wasn't packed at all. Took about 5 minutes to be acknowledged. I requested red onion on my burger. The burger arrived without onion, took a bit to get the attention of the waitress and I may have said excuse me louder than normal, my bad. Instead of just bringing me a slice of onion, the waitress took my tray to the kitchen and took the long way getting back to my table. So my fries were room temperature by the time they made it back to me. I'm always a big tipper cause I know us single diners get a bad reputation. First time in my life I didn't leave a tip. I will probably still dine at Polly's, but not with that waitress. read more

Had lunch here today and what a disappointment, dry, crispy overcooked burger, charged me for mayo!! Eggs and sausage ordered over easy, came out medium, counted 25 pieces of diced country potatoes on the plate, $14.99 , you should be ashamed. The burger was so over cooked it was crispy on the sides! Service was very slow! Last time here! read more

Honestly very disappointed, after I had paid and was about to leave I decided to buy food for a homeless man. However, I was refused this purchase and later overheard a conversation between the manager, Mike, and the other employees not to serve the homeless man that had come in. He was causing no harm, was fully dressed and was already willing to pay for the drink that he had ordered. I have always received great service here and I have been a regular customer, but this will ensure I will never come back. My relationship with this company is destroyed and this location needs a serious change in management. I will be pursuing further negative action, particularly on the grounds of discrimination. Management should be ashamed. read more

Again, made another visit to the best little local restaurant in Hemet. They have a great lunch special that includes a choice of several entrees and a slice of pie! We chose the tuna salad sandwich--comes with fries in their own little fryer, so cute! Love their tuna sandwich. We had the boysenberry piecwhich was delicious. Next visit Im not leaving without sime baked goods from the bakery! Stop in, you'll be glad you did. Lots of choices and something for everyone. read more

Polly's Pies - Tuna salad sandwich on toasted sourdough with fries - Bakeries Near Me - Hemet, California

The wait to sit down was a long time. Then when we did sit down it took forever to get our drinks and order taken. I ordered the Philly cheese steak sandwich and choked on the drink when it comes out. It looked terrible the portion size was like a kid's meal. $18 for a handful of cold fries and a tiny sandwich with literally no meat on there! The amount of meat on the whole sandwich wasn't even sufficient enough for a half of sandwich. When I asked the server she got the manager (again took forever) She told me sorry that's how they're portioned. (Not so nicely) She offered me something else but by that time my family ate their meals which were also cold, small and tasteless so I just gave it back. I haven't been back since. Overpriced, under quality... read more

I haven't even tasted the food yet but Polly's Pies is already getting 5 stars because of the hostess, Gloria! She was a total kick and had us smiling and laughing right from the start. First of all, she was very sweet to personally clear off the only open booth for us to make us comfortable. We appreciated that as she could have saved herself the trouble and just seated us at a table. A little later, I told her that I thought the little orange bow in her hair and the matching orange jewelery was very cute. Before our meal was over we had become total fans of Gloria and Polly's Pies and we even got a mini concert of her singing ''Chantilly Lace!'' I just had to join in. Can't remember when we had so much fun at a restaurant. Thanks for making our day, Gloria! So now for the food. I like what I ordered quite a bit. It was the half sandwich combo with tuna salad on sourdough and a salad with thousand island dressing. I'm picky about T.I. dressing and this was very good. The salad was a generous size with extras like croutons, tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, and grilled corn. Much better than the salads at many restaurants where they might only have 2 or 3 ingredients. My tuna salad also had chopped egg and celery. Nice and crunchy. The bread slices were thick. My dining companion had a French toast combo that he said he liked. He was especially happy with the delicious and big sausage links. We bought their signature pie to go...I think it's called Banberry. It's fresh strawberries under a glaze and on top of a banana cream layer, all topped off with whipped cream...a dessert treat waiting for us after dinner. read more

This is a great place for all kinds of pies. We frequent this place for the hard to find banana cream pie. No other place in the area makes great banana cream pies than Polly's Pies- and I have tried gourmet ones that they sell for double in Temecula. I'd rather drive here any day to get great customer service and amazing pies! read more

Two friends and I stopped in at Polly's for breakfast recently.  It was a very satisfactory experience. To begin with, the prices were excellent for the value received - breakfast for three people came in at under $40! Service was on-point, all the food we tried was very good, and their pies were exceptional!  I look forward to returning for another wonderful meal in the not-too-distant future :-) read more

Wellll.... Over all, the place isn't too bad.... However.... I find it very unprofessional that, when they advertise, "Prime rib, 4:00 PM- closing, or until we run out," they are out. Every blasted time I make a point to come here for the prime rib, they are conveniently OUT of it. This has happened four times. I wonder if they could posdibly stock enough to last the entire weekend, when it is advertised. Like I wrote-- it's overall good, but this is the last time I will come here. I feel this is false advertising. read more

Went to celebrate a birthday, there were 11 of us. Didn't have to wait long to be put at a table that only actually sat 10 and when we advise them that the last person was hanging off the table, they put a little bit of a stink about it until the manager came in and fixed it. There were two of us that advised the waitress we were going to split the order. ordered the Garlic Aioli Turkey sandwich and added avocado along with the large Caesar salad. The avocado on the turkey sandwich was two very thin slices on only one half of the sandwich (that was $2.50), none on the other half and we got a small dinner Caesar salad, and when we advised her, they just brought us another small Caesar salad, and charged us for two. Toni, the waitress was very condescending and rude until she got her tip letting us know to ask for her when we came back again.....hard no on that. Very frustrating. read more

Came in for breakfast on a Saturday morning with a friend. When we arrived we had to ask if we had to wait to be seated (as the two women already there did not bother to acknowledge us). Once we were seated it took them a while to come ask us if we were ready to order our drinks. After our coffee arrived, I noticed a small gnat inside of my coffee. I kindly asked if I could get another one. I really wanted to leave, however did not want to make a big deal out of this and continued on with breakfast. After tasting the new cup of coffee I was really disappointed in the taste of the coffee as I felt it was extremly watered down. My friend thought so too, and we asked it they had stronger coffee. They were nice enough to brew us stronger coffee, for which we were thankful. It took them a very long time to return and ask us if we were ready to order our food. It took them even longer to make our food and bring it out, despite the place not being very busy (upon our arrival). Story short, no one came to check up on us regularly. We had to flag down servers for everything (water, more napkins). We felt ignored and the severs were extremly short when speaking to us and did not feel friendly at all. At the end of our meal we had a diffult time flagging someone down so that we could have a box for our leftover food (I had ordered a cinnamon roll and did not eat it there as I wanted to take it home). No one asked us if we needed anything else, before they brought us our check. When I got home I finally had a taste of the cinnamon roll and again was disappointed as it was stale. This was my first and last time visiting this location. read more

Have been eating at Pollys for more than 30 years and my favorite sandwich is the Polly Melt. Very disappointed on my last visit that they no longer have rye bread. If you no longer have rye bread you need to remove the Polly melt from the menu. I don't know if this is chain wide or just at the Hemet location. read more
