While everyone loves mile-high bloody marys and bottomless mimosas, sometimes you just need a good old fashioned american breakfast!
I'm talking about stoneware mugs full of weak percolator coffee, plates with designs that take you back to your childhood, teal and pink booth seats and a mural that has graced the boulevard eatery for decades depicting the olympic flame and it's stewards and stewardesses on Mt. Olympus the home of the gods!
While you could easily pass by this place without giving it a second thought, the astroturf steps beckon you back to a simpler time. A time when breakfast menus had limited options, not because the chef is trying to convey a message, but simply becuase they hadn't INVENTED these other dishes yet!
Since it's early days as a latenight eatery and diner, Olympic Flame Pancake house has zeroed in on what it does best, the classic american diner style breakfast.
Newcomers to the Grand Strand can often pine for the neighborhood diners back home, and often the options (waffle house, denny's, ihop) is a sorry substitute to the chrome and neon dressed, rotating cake case laden temples to quick food done right they left behind for the beach.
Olympic Flame Pancake house is the closest thing you can get (as long as you get there before 2p). While they only serve breakfast brunch and lunch, this is one destination you can scratch that mid-atlantic diner itch.
Now, a fancy $30 bloody mary is NICE! Treating yourself to fancier things from time to time is perfectly fine, BUT when you need a breakfast palette cleanser, or a taste of nostalgia after a sunrise beach stroll, Olympic Flame Pancake House is definitely OUR choice year after year for that 'good old days' breakfast experience!
