Pancake Circus

This place looks like it's from a horror movie. Old school zoo / circus vibe, and starting to show its age. I got the early bird special and it was worth it. Can't say that it was amazing but it was pretty good. There was only one server for the entire restaurant so service was not the high point.

The food was pretty good, I really liked the Circus Burger. One of the other people I went with said that their French dip sandwich wasn't very good, so I suppose don't get that. If you like circus-themed things, I definitely recommend. There were little games and a lot of neat little figures that seemed to have been there for at least two decades.

One of Sacramento‘s iconic breakfast diners! The decor is glorious! Strange clown, pictures on the wall and for some reason Winnie the Pooh characters randomly dispersed. The food is classic diner, breakfast and lunch. I ended up having the circus burger, which was amazing. It’s two beef patties on a hoagie bun. I recommend the curly fries. Service was great and the food came out quick. I also had a few bites of my wife’s pancakes and waffles and they were pretty good.

This place was pretty good they have the best pancakes and nice size with get you full!! I have the waiter my bank card she is the only one who knows my card number so to be on the safe side! I let a waiter take my bank card 10 years ago and he started shopping after 3 months and didn’t think i would know who had my card!! Hopefully I won’t have to experience that again… other than that the place was cool a little old but nice..

Generic diner with great food! Service was pretty good for what seemed to be a minimal amount of staff. Best pancakes I’ve had in a while but they weren’t as hot as I prefer. Had them warmed up & they were perfect. I plan to return to try their “pigs in a blanket”. I recommend.

Met my son Bobby for Mother’s Day & my son Richard & grandaughter stopped, the staff were very nice and attentive our server was patient and very personable I will go back to Sacramento to join my sons.

Coulrophobes beware, but this is a classic diner, and a Sacramento institution. Literally my only complaint is that they're only open 7AM-2PM. C'mon, guys, we need circus-themed breakfast environs 24/7!

Had to try this uniquely decorated restaurant after reading a recently published story in the Sacramento Bee. I wasn’t disappointed. Good food at reasonable prices and friendly service. On site parking lot with space available. While paying the bill I purchased Mega Millions Lotto Tickets which accomplished the other thing I had to do today‼️
