"This was our first visit to Hot Springs, and while heading home, we decided to have lunch (or breakfast, really) at The Pancake Shop. I was initially concerned about the prices since the pancakes are ordered à la carte. However, when our food arrived, I was blown away by the massive homemade sausage patties and pancakes that covered the entire plate! Our server suggested the best way to enjoy the pancakes: cut a hole in the center, fill it with whipped butter, and then drizzle syrup all over. She was spot on! The pancakes were delicious, and I couldn't even finish mine—a rarity for me. My husband and I both opted for the cheese grits, and I have to say, I’m quite picky about grits. Most places just don’t make them well, but these cheese grits were by far the best I've ever had, even better than my own. My husband echoed my thoughts on the grits. Our two teenage boys wanted to try some and kept asking for more of OUR grits! Everything we had was amazing. After we placed our order, there was a bit of a wait, but while enjoying our meal, we understood why. The food is made from scratch, and that little wait is absolutely worthwhile. As for the pricing, the meals here are worth every penny. We left discussing how our experience at The Pancake Shop was the perfect conclusion to our trip to Hot Springs. Well done, everyone! You completely satisfied our family of five, and we will definitely return on our next visit to Hot Springs."
