Looking for a great breakfast place in Hershey, PA? If so, then The Hershey Pantry is a must see. I enjoy giving restaurant recommendations when I just loved the place. Located at 901 East Chocolate Avenue in Hershey, Pa, it was really easy to find and parking was not a problem despite it being crowded. This is an easy restaurant recommendation. It was the best breakfast I have had in a long time.
After two days of lacrosse at the Summer Genesis Tournament 2024 and wanting some more adventure, we were headed off to Hershey Park for the day and wanted a good cup of coffee and a great breakfast. I am a huge fan of breakfast places and I am very picky about my breakfasts. The concierge at the Courtyard by Marriott Hershey was a great resource and the restaurant recommendation she offered was just down the road. We were a bit intimidated by the crowd but put our name in anyway. But they were very efficient and got us seated quickly. The restaurant is adorable. We sat in the front and it was very eclectic with that old time diner feel but prettier. The back porch looked beautiful with lots of plants and pretty tables, I will sit out there next time. Very nice vibe.
The menu had everything. My first impression, it seemed a bit expensive, but for the amount of food you get it was cheap in the long run. The coffee was everything I needed it to be and the cute mugs were large so you didn’t have to keep asking for refills. It was my kind of place. My husband and daughter ordered the breakfast sampler. The version they ordered included scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon and pancakes and it was about $15.00. The picture to the right is my daughters order! The pancakes alone would have been hard to finish, they were huge. My husband got blueberry pancakes and daughter got chocolate chip pancakes. I don’t tend to be a pancake person, but these were amazing. May I note here… the bacon was cooked perfectly. I always judge a breakfast place by that. Daughter went out of her way to say the scrambled eggs were amazing.
The menu included an entire section just for Eggs Benedict, there were five different versions. I got the traditional eggs benedict with hashbrowns. They were fantastic. I couldn’t finish the plate, but most likely because I kept sneaking pancakes from my daughter. I noticed the chicken and waffles looked amazing, as well as the cinnamon roll. The omelets and the biscuits and gravy caught my eye also. I noticed other patrons were ordering a cinnamon roll for the table, which was a clever idea.
The Hershey Pantry is located at 801 E. CHOCOLATE AVENUE, HERSHEY, PA 17033 just outside of Chocolate Town USA. If you would like to see some of my other recommendations, check out the Restaurant Review section of my blog Sunday Chefs. Happy Dining!
