On the road in Bennington on Easter Sunday -- but Papa Pete's had space for us. Great atmosphere and staff was busy but interested. Obviously, a community meeting place and we soon understood why -- Everything was tasty, plentiful, and far more imaginative than we expected. Everything appeared to be made from scratch. Food is unitormly fresh -- no microwaves... More

Our breakfast omelettes were so delicious, and the homemade muffins were outstanding! We arrived a few minutes before opening time on Easter Sunday, and we were welcomed like old friends even though I am sure early arrivals can be a nuisance! The restaurant is spotless, and the service is efficient and friendly. The homefries were not greasy, which we appreciated,... More

Many of the Papa Pete's reviews focus on the extremely large pancakes. Indeed they are large, they are unique and they are good. But beyond the pancakes, this is a great locally owned breakfast spot. All the food we had was good and the service was prompt and friendly. So if you are in the area and looking for a... More

My husband and I stopped here for breakfast this morning. I ordered the lumberjack breakfast and he had an omelette. The food servings are beyond generous. My husband's omelette was the size of a pound cake and my pancake had to be at least 9 inches across! Needless to say neither one of us could finish our meals. The service... More

Stopped here en route from visiting family in New Hamphsire, on the way home to the Albany area. It was lunchtime but my husband and I were so impressed with the extensive breakfast menu, that we decided to order the 3 egg omelettes where you can mix & match your own three ingredients. Lots of unusual meat, vegie and cheese... More

Had the Lumber Jack Breakfast this morning at Papa Pete's and boy it was good and there was certainly enough food for a lumberjack. Service was outstanding. Prices are great. Nice small cafe atmosphere. Will be back.

After reading reviews on Trip Advisor, we decided to go to Papa Pete's on our way through Bennington. We had to wait 20 minutes because the restaurant was so busy, but it was definitely worth the wait! Our omelets were great, the service was fast and friendly, and the prices were very reasonable.

We had a fun breakfast at papa Pete's, even with a long wait for our food. Be prepared to go with the flow. But beware the pancakes! The smallest one available is 14" across and comes on a pizza pan with a rolling pizza cutter. It's pretty tasty, but nothing special... except enormous! Who needs that much pancake?
