Perkins Restaurant & Bakery

After 20 minutes we got seated, after 10 minutes somebody asked us if somebody helped yet.
After 3 minutes still nobody served us.
Walked out.
That was sunday and they had 2 tables. Place was empty

Good pie. It’s just Perkins. Decent food for a decent price. Not the best service, but never bad.

Pretty mediocre food, slow service and its expensive! Pretty much the only reason I eat here is from a lack of options in Bartow. Food is very generic and very pricey considering what you get.

Sat for over 5 minutes without even a glance our way. Will not return!!! Been here a few times prior and service staff keeps getting worse. They defiantly need to put their people through a better training program.

Great place and very nice people!!! We went there today for the first time!!! My grandpa second or third time!!! I had chicken salad, raspberry ice tea and apple pie, my mom had coffee, chicken pot and lime pie, my dad and grandpa had meatloaf, coconut pie and key lime pie!!!
We recommend this place.

Pretty disappointed after tonight’s visit. It took 15 minutes waiting to be seated, greeted and our drink order taken.
After taking our orders, the server couldn’t wait for me to move my belongings before she collected the menu… Flipping my expensive phone face first onto the table and into the water on the table from my glass.
While collecting dirty plates from appetizers… The server flipped a cup of salsa off a plate and it tumbled into my daughter’s lap then onto the floor and onto my leather purse. She apologized and brought a rag out… But seriously?
We waited almost an hour for our dinner to be served.
We asked our server for honey mustard and she never brought it (we had to ask another server). But she showed up 15 minutes later reeking of smoke.
We had to ask for the bill… And not a single credit for the stain left by the salsa, or the torture of a 2 hour dining experience with a 2yr old who was pushed beyond her bedtime. No comped drinks… No comped dessert or appetizer… No manager apology… Nothing.
Really disappointed. We will go elsewhere.

Greeted with a huge smile when we walked in. Kerry, our waitress was extremely sweet. Great food. .excellent service! !!

When my parents and I walked in and wanted to sit in the 6 seater round table cause it’s kinda hard when there’s two tall guys and a little lady sitting at a booth or four seater table. The manager said well that six seater is for six people my father replied with my son is 6’7 and it’s hard for him to sit at a small table or booth to spread out. Quickly the manager changed the way she spoke and came off she allowed us to sit at the six table.
I ate the salmon it was great and the salad my mother had was delicious she said. My father had the Tuna fish sandwich it was amazing he claims. The waitress made sure our drinks and dinner came out perfectly and no issues came around. The coffee I had was kinda strong but quickly addressed and fixed.
Over all the mixed atmosphere here either it’s how busy they are or how slow it some what takes time to get your food and drinks.

I had the meatloaf with corn and mash potatoes. First off service sucked! Took them about 10 minutes after sitting before I even got a chance to order a drink. When she came out with the drink it was the wrong order. Food came out 15 minutes after ordering and the fixings were decent but the gravy on the meatloaf was extremely salty. Once I requested the bill I gave her my card immediately and it took them 7 minutes just to run my card. I rarely take an hour for lunch but today I had to. Don’t recommend Perkins well at least this one.

I’ve been going to this restaurant for years as it’s always my mothers request on Mothers Day. Well this year will be the last. Upon receiving our coffee the coffee pot was dripping out some sort of black sludge, obviously from not being adequately cleaned, when we pointed it out our waitress offered to «get us a napkin to wipe it off our coffee mugs» (we never got those napkins consequently). When I ordered, with one modification, she said «oh that’s just like _​_​_​_​_​item, I’ll put that in for you hun». Well turns out it wasn’t I got one less egg and one less piece of bacon than I was trying to order. My son who was with us, wanted fruit with his breakfast, but they only had grapes, since «they were busy». The food wasn’t horrible, in fact it was what I would expect out of Perkins, decent but that’s about it.
While I don’t expect white glove service at Perkins, I do however expect friendly, and attentive service, and a clean restaurant, while I expect that they simply may have truly been busy and we got a bum waitress, I worry that the coffee pot was indicative of the cleanliness of the rest of their restaurant, if they can’t manage to keep their coffee pots clean, what else are they cutting corners on? I will not be back and I’d encourage you, if you in Perkins to eat, check your coffee mug, make sure it’s clean.

We stopped here for a quick bite after a long travel day. The restaurant atmosphere was overall very friendly. We ordered the French dip sandwich and a pancake breakfast platter. The restaurant was perhaps ¼ full but it took a while for the server to come to the table to take the order and even longer to get the food. The pancakes were good, the sandwich was average… perhaps another location would have been better or maybe just the breakfast.

This location is a little smaller then most Perkins and so it feels little cramped, especially if you go after church on a Sunday. Service was great. Our waitress was very friendly. I’ll probably avoid going on Sundays though to avoid the craziness!

Good service. Fine omelet. No surprises.
