★★★★☆ 4.0 Dakala Hall · Jan 2026

We had a great breakfast experience overall. The waffles were hands down better than the pancakes, but the pancakes were massive — you definitely get your money’s worth. The eggs were fresh and cooked perfectly, and the fruit was excellent. Honestly, some of the best strawberries and bananas I’ve had at a restaurant. The toast was also amazing. The orange juice tasted fresh, and the large size is actually large, so again, you get what you pay for. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing, which made the meal even more enjoyable. Our server wasn’t the most pleasant and came off a bit cold, but despite that, the food alone makes this place worth going back to. We paid about $67, but for the amount of food, the fresh taste, and the calm environment, it felt worth the price.

This is a cute restaurant with very nice customer service. The astronomical pancakes are HUGE! They are filling and good but I definitely couldn't finish. The bacon and grits were delish. The grits were creamy and different but delicious. The home fries weren't good because they're basically baked fries. No onions or green peppers with them and they were cut like french fries versus home fries which are cut up small and pan fried with onions and green peppers. My husband had the Hungry Man breakfast and he enjoyed it and finished it all. Lastly just for the 2 of us, it was $64 for breakfast! Ca-Razy. We won't be going back but thankful for the nice visit.

The pancakes were huge and delicious, but the service was terrible. The waitress was incredibly rude. She ignored us when we called her and made us take the plates from her hands instead of setting them on the table. She didn't place a single item down herself. The food was good, but the poor service ruined the entire experience.

★★★★★ 5.0 Louis and Elaine · Oct 2025

We had a great breakfast at Astronomical Pancake House. The atmosphere is nice, pretty decor, loads of seating and very casual. Our breakfast was really good, eggs perfectly cooked. Our server was very friendly and very attentive. We will definitely eat here again.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Autumn · Oct 2025

Place gives old-age vibes, which you want in this area. Coffee is fine, regular coffee shop taste (folgers lol). Prices threw me off though, one waffle no sides $12. Coffee is $3.50 with no flavored creamer, but is endless. Service was great! We paid $35 for one French toast and one waffle, two Coffees, no sides. Prices were high for not getting a lot. Service was great, our waitress was attentive and never let the coffee or water empty!
