Flapjack’s Pancake Cabin

We wanted pancakes for breakfast, and this place looked promising once we saw how full the parking lot was. That’s usually a good sign! We were seated promptly and our waitress came out very quickly with drinks and to take our order. We both ordered the sticky bun pancakes and a side of bacon. OH MY GOSH!!!’ You must try the sticky bun pancakes. It’s a delicious and genius combination of pancakes with a gooey cinnamon swirl. The pancakes are then topped with chopped pecans and cream cheese drizzle. They didn’t even need any syrup, but if you like them extra sweet, go ahead and pour it on. You will leave happy and full. I even took two of my pancakes back to our cabin and heated them up for a snack later. They were still good heated up! I would definitely eat here again.

Flap Jacks is one of the best pancake eateries I’ve dined at ages! They have this pancake called the sticky bun pancake and it has a mind of its own! The portions were huge and lucky for me and my wife we decided to share the meal! I can eat like a horse but I’m not sure even I could’ve finished those delectable flap jacks, omeletes, and sausage all at once! We took a trip up to Gatlinburg for the weekend and this place left a lasting impression on me! I wish they would start a franchise here in Memphis… until then I will dream about those sticky bun flap jacks! Sigh!
Now to the reason why they only get 4 stars instead of 5. The wait was bad! Our waiter took almost 20 minutes to ask us for our order. Although I will say that they seemed to be understaffed on that morning. If you have time to blow and want to try some food from the area then take a stop and one of the 5 locations in the area.

First place we stopped at when we arrived. Very good meal. Had the spanish something cant remember what it was called. But it was good. Great waiter too.

This was a great breakfast spot. Food and service was great, just an average place with good food at reasonable prices. Can’t say enough abt our waitress, best one we had on this trip… service is just as important as food.

The food is cheap and gross. I had the corned beef hash skillet which by the picture on the menu looked really good. What I got was microwaved hash from a can. My wife got biscuits and gravy. The gravy was of the obviously instant powdered variety. The pancakes were heavy and dense. Not good at all. But the service was good so there’s that. I won’t be back.

We checked them out on a mid week morning. About 10 minute wait, they are very well organized. Food was very good, reasonable pricing. Another thing the staff knows what they are doing. The orders are pretty big so plan on leftovers.

This place was delicious! We had a waiter his name was John and he was a very delightful character early in the morning! We ordered the reeses pancakes and oh my goodness I couldn’t believe I forgot to take a picture, It was sooooooo good! deff going back here if we visit Gatlinburg again!

We stopped here for breakfast on the way into Gatlinburg from Pigeon Forge. It’s in a great location and a nice place. The food and service was good while reasonable. Since we didn’t have a big meal, I don’t have a lot to elaborate on other than we’d definitely go back. We liked the easy parking and the building was quaint.

SO GROSS! DO NOT GO!!! Food tasted like air and the eggs were barely cooked. Toast was warm bread. Waitress asked me who I was texting and wouldn’t leave us alone! Friendly but a little annoying if you’re in a hurry! Food is nasty! We paid 64 $ for food we didn’t touch. STAY AWAY!
Update: feeling very sick after eating here

We had a great breakfast here! I had the sticky bun pancakes and wow — couldn’t finish the huge stack but they were extremely tasty! My husband had the full deal… eggs, pancakes, bacon, sausage, and grits… and all of it was very good!
Our waitress was very friendly as well as all of the servers as they all made sure you were doing ok! Would highly recommend this place!

Love the sticky buns, to die for!!! Quick service. Extremely friendly staff. Would highly recommend for a great breakfast

I love Flapjacks! They have really friendly staff and the food is wonderful. They have a kids menu that the kids get to keep and color on. It was pretty affordable compared to the other pancake houses, and they even have a gift shop.
If you don’t prefer breakfast food they can also make you a sandwich. My husband had a BLT and it was a really good sandwich. I would really recommend them and I plan on going back every time we visit Gatlinburg.

Based on the other reviews, I’m wondering if we just hit an off day, but we walked in around 8:30 a.m. on a Tuesday morning. One waitress was engaged in a lengthy conversation with a table and had her back to us, and there were no other staff in sight. We waited… and waited… and waited. Just about the time we were turning around to walk out, a waitress emerged and seated us. I’m pretty sure she didn’t even speak to us — just grabbed menus, walked to a booth, and threw them on the table.
It took our waitress forever to come to our table, and a group that came in after us was waited on and had their drinks before us. I ordered the Honey Nut Crunch, and our waitress had no idea what it was, so I had to show her on the menu. When she brought it out, she said, «Is that what it’s supposed to look like?» Um, it’s YOUR menu! The fella got fried steak and eggs, and he said it was about what you’d expect. The coffee was pretty weak.
This was definitely our last visit to Flapjack’s.

Let me start by saying this was way better then the other flapjacks I ate at. Chicken and waffles were good one day and the pig and a blanket were great the other day. The cooks here know what they are doing. Servers here pretty good. Enjoyed the food and watching my wife, her parents and my son all get different things and they all looked delicious.

The people were so friendly, the food was good and reasonable. Do yourself a favor and check then out!

TERRIBLE!!! TERRIBLE!!! TERRIBLE!!! Customer service was horrible. Once we were sitted no one came to take our drink orders. We were sat in the very back of the restaurant. The manager was very nonchalant with our concerns regarding this matter. DON’T EAT HERE!!!

Delicious hearty breakfast. Biscuits and gravy are the best we had in a while.
Staff is friendly, felt like we’ve known them for years.

I’ve eaten at a lot of pancake houses in this area. But this one just didn’t do the me no justice on taste. We got a lot of food but it was bland the eggs, the bacon, and the pancakes. There are better one’s around, I won’t be back to this one.

Great breakfast spot. Gatlinburg is stuffed with pancake places, so we didn’t have to go far to find this one.
Came with a group of 10 and were immediately seated and had our drinks within minutes.
Food was FAST and good — everyone got what they wanted and really enjoyed it. Would recommend!

Great food, fast service .no wait. The staff was very friendly! I was able to customize my order. only wanted 1 flapjack, not 4! Drinks come in moonshine jars or milk jars (small).
Biscuits are square and flaky!
