I want to first clear the record… there is a review out there that says their health score is a 67 but it is NOT!!! The person doing the review obviously saw their max capacity sign (see picture). Their health score is actually a 93! Now to the food and atmosphere…. The food is amazing! It’s my husband’s favorite place to eat breakfast so we decided to eat our 23rd anniversary breakfast there. It was just as good as ever. The owners are probably some of the friendliest people in Athens. They always remember us and ask us about our family. If you’re looking for food just like your grandma makes you will not be disappointed.

Outstanding service and fabulous breakfast! My first visit to Athens, Georgia was topped off with an awesome way to “start the day”. I really enjoyed breakfast on a paper plate…my first reaction was “I know this is gonna be good”…and it was! ❤️

Best breakfast I’ve had in a very long time. Service is quick, food is super tasty, nostalgia everywhere. A look into the past. I enjoyed my experience here it’s a shame that I’ve lived here for more than a decade and this is my first time. Will return soon

I have lived here for 23 years and have never eaten at the Mayflower, and really it seemed like my kind of place, so I decided to give it a shot today and wow! My standards for hygiene are not high, like gas station tacos are my favorite, but this place is straight up disgusting. Paint coming off the walls, insulation hanging out, months of filth on the floors in the corners and around booths. My friend’s rubric was “is it nastier than the (beloved) old Gyro Wrap on Broad, not the new one, that’s squeaky clean I promise, and the answer is yes, way grosser. The posted health score was 67!?!?

Gross. The grime has permeated everything. You’re also being cheated by the owner if you don’t bring cash, he owns the AtM that will charge you an extra $3-6 to pay for your meal. I wonder how much he’s made over the years cheating customers by only accepting cash?

!!! CASH ONLY RESTAURANT !!! The outdated decorum, in my opinion, was charming. Wish they had music playing, also get the PANCAKES, they were amazing. These other people need to get off their high horse about paper plates.

Athens’ finest home cooking. Feels like you’re stepping back in time – I can only assume that the decor has stayed the same over the years the family has been running the restaurant. Love it. Cash only! (Food on paper plates due to COVID)

My wife and I moved to Athens recently, and I have always wanted to try this place. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I ordered the country boy breakfast, which came with sausage. Scrambled eggs, and hashbrowns and pancakes. I substituted the pancakes for biscuits and gravy and it was so much food and it was so good. I had to take over half of it home. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I can’t wait to go there for lunch. If you come to Athens and this place is open, you have to go here. It is absolutely fantastic.
