Get the cinnamon roll pancakes – they are AMAZING. The cinnamon sugar caramelizes on the griddle and they are top 3 best pancakes I’ve ever had.
The biscuits and gravy you can skip. Nothing special.
The fresh squeeze orange juice for only $5. That’s a good deal. Most other places are serving pasteurized junk.
They play country music and the vibes are good. I would definitely come back

The Pancake Pantry offers a wide variety of breakfast options, including a delicious selection of pancakes! I opted to get the assorted plate where you can select three different types of pancakes. I tired the Santa Fe cornbread, cinnamon swirl and banana bread pancakes, and each one was delicious. I especially liked the cinnamon swirl which was kind of like a cinnamon roll pancake. The service was excellent. Get there before 8am of you want to avoid the line. Highly recommend this place if you’re in Nashville!

Delicious Brunch at The Pancake Pantry in Nashville! We visited the Pancake Pantry on a Sunday morning, the day after daylight savings time, around 8:30/9 am. They were already packed, but the staff was working very quickly and was able to seat us right away. Our Server was Brian and he did an excellent job! He was friendly, attentive and really showed us the Southern Hospitality. I ordered banana bread pancakes, bacon, coffee and orange juice. The orange juice was fresh-squeezed! The pancakes were served with WARM maple syrup and cinnamon cream. It was to die for! We will definitely be back!

As I walked from the hotel to the restaurant, I could see a line at least 50 people deep at 9:00am on a Saturday. I became very excited about finding a great restaurant while traveling. This restaurant did not disappoint. I haven’t had a breakfast this good in a long time if not ever. The food came out hot and did not get cold through the entire meal. Amazing!

Highly recommend the food here! They are fast and efficient. We waited about 20 minutes for a table at noon on a Sunday. Once we got in, it was super fast. They do have an accessible entrance but it’s a little tight and you have to go through their outside tables for a flat entrance. Otherwise there are a few stairs by the door. We tried many of the flavors and all were great. Sweet potato was my favorite.

I got the breakfast sandwich, bacon, egg and cheese. Really no flavor to it. Kind of bland I wish the hash browns are a little bit more shredded. Same thing. Kind of no flavor. The presentation is very ified but the food doesn’t match The view. The restaurant is nice and vibrant. Good spot of town if they have outdoor seating as well

Came in today and I was surprised how busy it was considering it’s Monday. They still have their Christmas decor up and I honestly love that! It was our first time eating here and the service and food were great. We ordered the sausage + eggs which came with 2 pancakes, sausage + eggs + biscuits and gravy, Ham + eggs with pecan pancakes and a side of hashbrowns. Everything was freshly made. The pancakes were fluffy and their in house cinnamon syrup was a MUST! We were so full and the bill was surprisingly decent considering the location. Will definitely be back.

This place is the best. The coffee is also the best. They have this cinnamon cream that they make and it’s delicious. But what makes it such a nice place to go is the service. Roberta was so kind, funny, and helpful. She went above and beyond to show care and she truly made our day better. We will be back!!

We were staying in a local hotel but needed something different for breakfast. Found this place and couldn’t have been more pleased with the food and service. They had a line of people waiting which is a great sign and they seemed to seat folks quickly. Prices were reasonable and everything was great!

We had our first visit to Pancake Pantry in Nashville and it did not disappoint! We tried the Original Pancakes and the Sweet Potato Pancakes, and both were absolutely delicious fluffy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The sweet potato pancakes were a standout with the perfect balance of sweetness and spice. The restaurant has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, and the staff made us feel right at home. A must-visit spot for anyone in Nashville!
