Sawyer's Farmhouse Breakfast

Sawyer's Farmhouse Breakfast is a family-owned breakfast favorite on the Parkway in Pigeon Forge, known for made-from-scratch pancakes, light crepes, homemade syrups and real whipped butter. A second Sawyer's on Wears Valley Road brings the same farmhouse breakfast toward Wears Valley.

Sawyer's opened in 2014 and has grown into a Pigeon Forge breakfast favorite. It serves breakfast and lunch, with big portions and a relaxed farmhouse feel that makes it an easy start to a day in Pigeon Forge.

Pancakes, crepes and homemade syrups

Scratch-made pancakes

The fluffy, made-from-scratch pancakes are the reason many people come. Top them with real whipped butter and your pick of Sawyer's homemade syrups, which come in a range of flavors and are a big part of the restaurant's reputation.

Crepes

Light, airy crepes are a Sawyer's specialty, filled with sweet or savory options. They're a nice change of pace from a standard pancake stack.

Belgian waffles and French toast

Buttery Belgian waffles and dessert-style French toast round out the sweet side of the menu.

Hearty Southern breakfast

On the savory side, Sawyer's serves farm-fresh eggs, hearty breakfast platters, omelets, and Southern staples like biscuits and gravy. Portions are generous, so a big platter can easily start a long day of hiking or theme parks. Lunch favorites join the menu later in the day.

Gluten-free and dairy-free pancakes are available, so more of the table can join in.
