About Flapjack’s Pancake Cabin

Flapjack’s story began with the idea of recreating the warmth of a homestead cabin and the childhood memories of homemade pancakes. The restaurant grew from that inspiration into a family-owned group of breakfast cabins throughout the Smoky Mountain area.

Pancakes remain at the heart of the menu, with options that include traditional buttermilk pancakes and specialty combinations. The current menu also includes waffles, French toast, omelets, breakfast skillets, biscuits and gravy, country ham, and larger breakfast platters.

For guests who prefer something savory, the current menu includes options such as the Gist Creek Grit Skillet, Sammy’s Scrambled Ham & Cheese Skillet, Spanish Skillet, and Walkers Cabin Skillet. There are also larger breakfast plates such as the Barn Buster and Wonderland.

The restaurant is designed with groups in mind. Flapjack’s says its cabin-style restaurants can accommodate large groups, including family reunions and tour groups, and offers group menus for parties of 25 or more.
