This place may be small, but the food is big and did not disappoint. I had the Challah French Toast with bacon. It also came with some blackberries and strawberries, which were sweet. The syrup was not too sweet and warm. My husband had some grits with his Virginia ham and cheese omelet, and all was delicious. My youngest had banana pudding pancakes, and they were amazing. My oldest had the French toast with maple bacon and, again, delicious. Highly recommend and worth the 30-minute wait.

Great breakfast spot! I really enjoyed my Huevos Rancheros. There was a delicious fried sweet tortilla on the side that was the most pleasant surprise. Grateful they opened at 7 rather than 8 to get an early start. The art gallery is pretty great. There are crayons for kids!

Insanely good food and great portion sizes at reasonable prices – this local spot feels like THE place to go when you’re wanting a good, hearty breakfast.

Solid choice for breakfast. If you use a wheelchair or other mobility devices, there is a bit of a bump in the doorway which may be difficult to navigate. This seems to be their standard in many St. Simon’s stores and is unfortunate. I got the seafood squared, which is crab cakes eggs benedict with grit cakes as the base. This dish was underwhelming. The egg yolks weren’t not runny and the crab flavor was overpowered by the grit cakes. The Banana Pudding Pancakes were delicious. If you like sweet foods for breakfast, this will make you very happy. Service was kind, prompt, and attentive. I’d like to go back and try some of their other offerings.

We have frequented Palmer’s the last 6 years when we vacation on SSI. This place is top notch. Food and service are superior in every way.

Everyone in my party had something different and it was all delicious. I give it a 10. I have been coming to SS for 35 years and had never eaten here because of wait time. However they told us 30 to 40 minutes and we were seated in 15. Don’t let the wait time scare you off. It’s worth it for sure.

Had a family breakfast here recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had bacon, eggs, biscuits, steak & eggs and toast. All came out delicious and it’s easy to see why this place is highly rated. Staff was friendly and helpful, and came by and refilled coffee regularly.
