You can find everything from bowls to pancakes, from chocolate stuffed waffles to crab cakes with fried green tomatoes. The hours are 7:00 am-2:00 pm, come early because there is usually a wait.
Canopy Road Cafe – Check out the sweet potato pancakes with maple syrup and pecans. Sure it is slightly more like dessert but fabulous. Based out of Tallahassee, they just opened in the Shoppes of Bayard at 12525 Philips Highway. It is breakfast and lunch only, which by my standards means no mimosas; and that’s right, they do not serve alcohol. About a 12-minute drive from UNF but well worth the visit.
Deerwood Bistro – A full traditional menu is available at the Deerwood Bistro. Offering everything from eggs to pancakes and waffles Deerwood Bistro is open 7:00 am-3:00 pm for breakfast and lunch Sunday – Wednesday. Thursday – Saturday the hours are extended to include dinner until 8:30 pm.
