Skillet is one of my favorite places to check out for brunch, and has always been consistently delicious for me! From the adorable little skillet used as the door handle, to the ever changing rustic menu, every touch here is truly a delight. If you're worried about parking there is not a parking lot but there is plenty of free street parking on the road. You could also park at Giant Eagle just a ways up.
I recently came here with a couple of friends around 11:30AM on a Saturday which is one of their busier times. Despite the place being very small and cozy on the inside we only had about a 10 minute wait. The downside is that you have to wait outside since there isn't room indoors (so weather wise this could turn into a problem), but the plus side is they had a free coffee stand outside for you to help yourself! Nice touch. After a small cup of coffee we were seated at a smaller table outside.
Our waitress came shortly after and she was super nice and helpful (we even joked about being Yelpers!) and allowed us enough time to peruse the menu. We all ended up ordering the same thing, the Chicken and Andouille Gravy & Biscuits, and some Cheese Taters for the table. The Chicken and Andouille Gravy and Biscuit was absolutely delicious and quiet hearty. Definitely enough to fill up and still have enough to take home! The Cheese Taters were gooey and delicious and had a nice kick with the fresh chunks of jalapeño! I've also had the Griddled Cinnamon Roll here in the past which is a large cinnamon roll cut in half and warmed up on the grill with syrup and powdered sugar on top! It's a MUST try, but I would recommend splitting it with at least one other person as it is quite indulgent and sugary for the morning.
If you haven't been to Skillet, it's definitely worth checking out! read more
