Wake N Bake is my new favorite breakfast spot! From the moment I walked in, I could tell this was a place that cared about good food and good people. The owner, Brandy, was so kind and even let me try a waffle — and wow, it was amazing!
The French toast is exactly what I’ve been searching for. The bacon? Move over, Waffle House — they’ve got nothing on this place. Perfectly cooked, flavorful, and unforgettable. The hash browns were seasoned just right, and even the grits looked good (and I don’t even eat grits!).
The portions are huge, the fresh fruit on the plate was a nice touch, and everything came out hot and fresh. You can feel the family-owned warmth here — it’s cozy, busy, and full of good energy. Oh, and the donuts… massive, fresh, and delicious. You’d probably need three Krispy Kreme donuts to equal one of theirs!
This was my first time here, but definitely not my last. Wake N Bake is that kind of place you instantly fall in love with.

Monsterous portions (see donuts the size of your face) and decor. Everything was exceptionally delicious, although grits are like mac and cheese – the only “right” way to make them is how YOU like them– and we wouldn’t order these again. No one except Big Foot has anything to hide here. The employees are just working hard to make amazing food. Ambience is come-as-you-are, late-night psychedelic-vintage-quirky vibe..

For a hassle-free breakfast with extraordinary donuts, I recommend stopping by here for breakfast and sampling their donuts. Don’t forget to grab biscuits and gravy they are delicious. The staff and cook are friendly, the price is reasonable, and the food was delicious.

Wake and Bake is a small spot with big flavor! The food and donuts were excellent, and the staff was super friendly. We sat at the counter, which made the experience even better — it was like dinner and a show watching the three cooks in action. They moved so fast and smoothly, it felt like a performance, and it was fun seeing all the different dishes being prepared and heading out. Definitely a place I’d return to if I’m back in the area!

We had a wonderful, very friendly, and sweet server on 3.2 I forgot to get her name. She was a younger girl. She was fantastic. Our food was delicious. The breakfast bowl was the stand out and I will definitely be back. We drove from Piedmont to check them out and it was worth the drive.

Visited their booth at the Pendleton fall festival. I don’t like donuts. However, these donuts? Consider me forever changed. The owner was so kind and helpful! We got two mugs, also. Cannot wait to try their restaurant.

The best breakfast around! Locally sourced, meats, homemade biscuits, and donuts, the best coffee in town! This little gem is very clean and well taken care of. Service was excellent, and the portions are generous. I almost don’t want to write this review because I like just walking in without a line out the door. Lol! Come on in and check it out, you won’t be sorry that you did.

Glad we decided to give Wake n Bake a second chance. It was clear the A-team was present on this visit because we were greeted, served drinks in under 3 minutes, offered menus with the drinks, and order taken in under 5 minutes (none of this happened on our first visit).
Tasha was incredibly nice and answered all our questions. Never had to ask for a refill she was on it. My daughter really enjoyed her doughnut and my breakfast plate was promptly served hot and fresh.
Night and day difference. First trip we left after not receiving our drinks after 15 minutes of sitting (and no it was not busy). The waitress we had that day was not smiling nor acted like she cared to have a job. Upon giving a second chance, couldn’t have left happier. The important lesson here was grace and not letting a first impression ruin what could otherwise be great.
We will definitely be going back.
