You will not regret your trip to Grandma's! The biggest and fluffiest omelet I've ever had. Not to mention it comes with 3 large pancakes. We ordered a side of biscuits and gravy as well as sausage. All of the food was excellent and came out hot. The sausage had nice crispy edges, and the biscuit was very large and tender. The staff that day wasn't as friendly, but we've been other times and had great staff members wait on us. We will definitely be back for some delicious breakfast!

Grandmas pancake house on a Sunday morning- what else can you really ask for? The coffee pots are hot and the grandmas are old. The decor inside is not fooling anybody this place is definitely a speakeasy Mexican restaurant after 5pm. Our food came out piping hot 15 seconds after we ordered it. (Approximately) They don’t have chocolate gravy so please don’t make the mistake of asking, people in this part of Tennessee take their gravy very gravely. Some sort of decades long gravy rivalry going on in this town in particular. They offer every type of pancake under the sun, not to mention their less famous waffles. The fruit syrups they bring out with them will send you into a hallucinatory sugar haze you won’t come back from until Monday at least. Bathrooms were clean and everyone was friendl

I had the fluffiest Western Omelette, with pancakes on the side. Absolutely wonderful. Mom had the Apple Waffle with apple syrup. It had apple piece's cooked in it and cinnamon apples on top. Just mouth watering good. We love coming here for breakfast or lunch. So many delicious dishes it's hard to choose. Our waitress was very sweet. The coffee is also very good, not weak or to strong. Just right. If you love pancakes or crepes this is the place! They also have a few other menu items for the regulars, omelettes, eggs, toast, bacon, etc. Just try it I'm sure you will find something for everyone.

Biggest omelet I have ever had and it came with 3 pancakes! Taste was great , pancakes had a different flavor, tasted a little off but not bad..

Better than expected breakfast food. The pancakes taste very similar to McDonalds. The scrambled eggs & ham were delicious. The service was very good. The biscuit and gravy are not good. It's similar to chicken or turkey gravy. Definitely not southern style.
