Closed on Sundays. Makes perfect sense. Who eats brunch on Sundays?
by Cory W.
The food is good, didn't care much for the puppet show though. Seems they are taking dinner theater to the extreme.
by Patrick H.
Breakfast stops at 11 on weekdays cuz nobody wants an egg after 11!!
by Cory W.

by Mike N.
Guy Friday Breakfast at the west end every Friday 8AM 'til?
by Arthur C.
The Greek omelette is my favorite breakfast item. It's not on the regular menu, but can be made upon request. It's usually the "breakfast special" at least 1 day a week.
by Nikki
turkey melt is the best
by Bryan M.
Best breakfast in Knoxville for the price.
by Ray H.
The beat chicken livers in Knoxville. Served on Tuesday's.
by John S.
Dan does not know a good place when he sees it. Pete's has won best breakfast in knoxville 4 years running. And his lunches as well his staff are great. Dan must of had a bad day.

Large portions, home cooking & reasonable prices.
by Cathy M.
Best pancakes in the city
by Cook Loft
Best home-cooked breakfast in downtown. Even the bacon is cooked to perfection! (that's for you, Bob.W)
by Brad H.
Homemade chicken salad sandwich is the best I've ever had. Also, check out the omelets during breakfast hours. They also prepare to-go orders within 5 minutes, awesome!
by Chelsea C.
Chicken salad melt and sammi's sub club are awesome.
by Chad B.
country fried steak with bis-n-gravy, 2 eggs over easy & wheat toast
by Michael T.
The Jumbo Burger rocks!
by Nancie C.
Breakfast is kind of a rip off. No substitutions, $1 to get a different type of cheese in an omelette, no side of bacon available. Blah.
by Ryan W.
Skip it. Small portions.
by Dan L.
If you love chicken & dumplings, Wednesday is the day to go, but if you prefer chicken fried chicken, venture in on Thursday's. Ordering a sweet tea is a must & get to know the staff...they're GREAT!!
by Nikki
Go to Pete's and resist the burger and get a Sammie's Sub Club.
