Atruim Pancake House in Gatlinburg

Free parking is hard to come by in Gatlinburg, so any place that offers free parking on site is a plus to me. The Atruim Pancake House, 432 Parkway in Gatlinburg not only offers free on site parking, but if seated in the back room a view of a beautiful waterfall.The Baked Apple Pancakes are the house specialty and have been featured in Taste of Home Magazine.

The Atrium Pancake House offers a decent selection of pancakes including Chocolate Covered Strawberry, Coconut Chocolate Chip and Red, White and Blue Roll Ups ( Strawberry,bannana and Blueberry).

Prices are resonable and service was good.

Pancakes/ 45 Types of Breakfast

A few doors down from the Comedy Barn on the Parkway in Pigeon Forge, sits the Pancake House. The sign on the roof of the building reads PANCAKE, and the sign out front reads Pancakes/ 45 types of breakfast. At first glance one thinks 45 types of pancake, there are 16 different pancakes on the menu. My mistake the sign said ' 45 types of breakfast'not pancakes.There is no other identifying name anywhere inside or out so we will call the place Pancakes.

The place looks small from the outside, don't be deceived, there is plenty of seats. The pancakes were really good, light, fluffy and perfectly cooked. Prices aren't bad either, 2 pancakes for $2.95, one egg with bacon or sausage and pancakes for $5.95. Toast, biscuits, hash brown potatoes or grits may be subsituted for pancakes.

Service was good, food was good, prices were good. Opens at 7 a.m.
