Always hit it for breakfast with our extended family here.  7 a.m. there's a line .  Doesn't take long. The staff works like a well-oiled machine. Greeter/seater/wait manager impressive. I Recommend Palmer's for every one I know. More...

Great little cafe as well as that fabulous southern charm from the staff.  We did wait  a bit for our food but the breakfast was fabulous and I would highly recommend Palmers Village Cafe!!

Excellent. Superior service and food. We had a gravy biscuit, two PVC pancakes and a crabwich.  The gravy biscuit was the best I ever had, pancakes were not too heavy and very good and my wife wants to go back again today to another crabwich.  It also was not too expensive. Our new favorite breakfast/brunch place that we could eat at everyday. More...

What's not to love about this place! We have eaten here 3 times and the key to Sunday brunch is to get there at opening. We love their pancakes and biscuits and gravy. More...

The wait was worth it for an enjoyable setting, delectable menu choices and efficient service.  Three of us dined and sampled the mahi sandwich x2 and spinach salad.  All were satisfied with generous portions  of such fresh offerings.  Service was excellent.  Will definitely go back if in the area.

Stopped in for breakfast before leaving that island--so glad we did. Charming diner interior, fantastic service and food was wonderful. Sort of like diner food with flair. Delicious. But do yourselves a favor and show up early--it looks like it gets busy quickly (also a ringing endorsement from a visitors point of view). More...

We came here because it was one of the Only breakfasts available Sunday but not sure there's a better spot in town. The wait was worth it. Host and servers were very friendly and fast but we didn't feel rushed. Food was sooo good. Eggs Benedict & breakfast enchiladas were delicious. Would go back to try other items More...

The pictures presented advertising the restaurant did not live up to reality.  The food was lacking flavor and seemed tossed on the plate.

Very popular brunch restaurant on the island! We walked by and noticed there's always a long line, so we called in for a take out order. We had the fruit French toast w/ sausage and an omelette. Both tasted good and were filling. More...

It's a good sign that arriving customers are greeted by name. Obviously a favorite spot for locals.  My waitress was very helpful with suggestions and the breakfast special, Crab Omelet, sounded delicious! Upon recommendation of reviews, I started with a biscuit and their homemade tomato jam. They serve their biscuits split and griddle toasted with their jam. So delicious I bought a jam of jam to take home!Understanding that their large, approximately 8-9 inch, pancakes are a favorite of customers, I ordered the PVC pancakes. These are basically blueberry pancakes topped with a blend of oats and nuts. Textured, crunch and the pop of blueberries make for an interesting, delicious palate pleaser.  Pancakes served with real maple syrup. Breakfast and lunch served all day. Alcohol and breakfast/brunch cocktails available. I can't wait to return! More...

I enjoyed poached eggs on corn biscuit, most interesting combination that works very well together.   Tasted good but poached eggs missed mark. Eggs were really runny with a lot of clear egg. They needed a couple of more minutes of cooking.  Get holindase sause on side, everyone overloads it. More...

On a trip to the Cloisters, we ventured off campus and found this little gem. They put a fresh spin on breakfast. We had the Coastal Delight and it was just that; a delight. Also reccomend getting a biscuit with the tomato jam. The jam is amazing and you can also purchase it, what a tasty treat. We will be back for sure. More...

I wish I could give this place 7-8-9-10 stars. The food is amazing!!!! Best food on the island as far as I can tell. Service was excellent and friendly. This place is very popular so be prepared to wait but the wait is totally worth it. As the lady in front of us said..."I once waited outside in July for 45 minutes, while I was 9 months pregnant, and it was still worth it. I don't think you'll find a better endorsement than that.

Great atmosphere here at Palmer's. It's always a good sign when you arrive for breakfast and there's people waiting outside the door. I highly recommend the Challah bread French toast. This may be the best French toast in town. Come hungry.... The portions here do not disappoint. Palmer's is a staple for breakfast here on St. Simons Island (take it from me, I'm a local). More...

Karen ( waitress) is HORRIBLE AND RUDE and I will not be going backKAREN IS AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. We love this place for the food, but the staff is horrible and I won't be going back. She walked away in the middle of my friend ordering because it wasn't happening fast enough, and went to the back to mock her and complain to another employee. She THEN HAD THE AUDACITY to blame my friend instead of apologizing when I called her out on the behavior. She is terrible and rude and I'm unsure how she still has a job. Takes much more effort to be terrible than it does to be nice. More...

Stopped in here for breakfast with my girls while on a mini vacation to the area. We were immediately seated in this cute cafe. Ambiance: Has all the typical cafe vibes--was open, light, and casual. The kitchen was open, which I always enjoy. No complaints!Food: Food was good! Everything came out quickly and as expected. Servings, especially the pancakes, were more than filling. I had the Coastal Delight Omelet with the breakfast potatoes which I really enjoyed. The herbed cheese was a really nice touch!  My eldest went for the Full Monty which she enjoyed as well. My middle just wanted pancakes and bacon. Simple, yet a win. We also opted for a side of cheese grits and I'm glad we did. They were yummy!Service: Our server was warm, bubbly, and attentive. No complaints. Overall I'd definitely enjoy another breakfast here if ever back in the area. Did not disappoint! More...

Ordered steak and eggs, asked for my steak medium rare and eggs over medium. Eggs came with yolk cooked through, which I sent back. Another member of my party also ordered eggs over medium, and his were also overcooked. I kept on eating, and a few bites into the steak I realized the inside was completely raw, unacceptable having ordered medium rare. I had already bothered my server enough and didn't want to send my food back yet again, so I ended up just eating the eggs and leaving most of the steak (so I basically ended up paying $13 for some eggs and breakfast potatoes).  I love steak and frequently cook it at home and order it at restaurants, and I've never had results come out this bad. Some people may like their steak cooked like this but I personally can't stomach it. Maybe my mistake for ordering steak at a brunch place, but still. I still will give two stars because the service was pretty good and the rest of my party enjoyed their meals. Had I ordered anything else, this would likely have been a pleasant dining experience. Probably a fine restaurant to visit for most people, but I won't be back. More...

Food is outstanding. Seriously good. My maple bacon French toast could start wars. And my husband enjoyed his egg bacon and cheese biscuit very much. Coffee was delicious as well. We got pancakes and plain French toast for the kids to go. They loved it all. Side note here. The waitress with a long blonde pony tail could slice ice with her attitude. We asked one question of who we are suppose to order from and got an angry belligerent rant from her. I got whiplash. For real.It was truly so bad.But the food is amazing and other servers here are so nice. Tip. Maybe just walk directly to the back and get a table away from the very mean woman up front? And as always, my reviews are honest and will always show both sides. So flip side. So our waiter who ended up helping us, comped our meal. It was truly a class act move and one that we appreciated very much. And he was an incredible server. Very kind and everything was perfect with our orders. And, as we walked out, the blonde lady actually apologized. I was shocked and not expecting it at all. Apologies go a very very long way with me. I respect her for coming out and making nice. It made the entire ordeal better. She earned my respect for doing that. Will we be back? Probably. We just bought some condos here and the food is damn good. Take the good with the bad I suppose. Nobody is perfect. More...

We had breakfast at Palmers twice but I would have eaten there more if my husband hadn't wanted to try other places. The ham biscuits are delish! The coffee is good and service was great.

If you don't want to wait in line, get there early! There will be a line and it's worth it! Waited a little over an hour but the grub was definitely on point! 6 of us might have added to the wait but all ordered something different and everything was delicious! I really like the different take on omelettes, not just your average ham and cheese... the Full Monty was 5 stars, different take on French toast! Very good and service was excellent once seated and food didn't seem to take any longer than any normal brunch/lunch restaurants. I would highly recommend! More...
