Pappy's Greasy Spoon

1st time here at Pappy's. Met a mutual friend here. He kept telling me how much like the breakfasts here. Especially, the homemade sausage patty's. 😋 It was like eating at home. Got our own unique coffee mug. Service was amazing. A cool 50' early 60' memorabilia vibe. And he was right! Sausage patty...yummy! And the biscuits and gravy, on point! Next time I am in town. I know where I am going.

Pappys greasy spoon is a small town hidden gem. It is very vintage and authentic decorated with Americana and Coke antiques. The food is great and very inexpensive. The portions are good. Everything is tasty. Everything is made to order and served hot. We especially like the pancakes, which were slightly chewy and very tasty just the way we like it. The hashbrowns are crispy and the butter plentiful. The meat lovers omelette is packed with meat and very good. I’d recommend getting the biscuit. It was very soft moist and creamy. There is a parking lot and street parking, but the actual restaurant is not obvious. It is inside an old mall, but it is downtown Canby. The service is fast, efficient and genuinely friendly. There is also a bar to eat at this place has every component of a classic diner from days gone by. Well, worth the trip I will be coming back. This place is great!

What a cute old fashioned diner. Generous portions, the veggie omelet was great, has browns were even better. Thankfull for the meal that someone spent the energy to make. Highly recommend if you are in the area for a local meal.

Was in the area and craving eggs Benedict at 12pm after work. Great service and quiet place to eat but probably the most watery and over-salted eggs Benedict I’ve ever had. Had to ask for a box. Willing to try again, but would have to be the lunch menu. We make better at home. Boyfriend said his corn Beef hash was great.

I went right as they opened, the coffee was hottt and the service was amazing! I went for biscuits and gravy but the Philly cheese steak omelette caught my eye! AMAZING!!! I definitely will come back and try the biscuits and gravy next weekend! Thank you!

This is my 2nd time eating here and suggested to meet with family. The food was cold especially the country gravy which was not good at all (need a new recipe and lesson in making sausage gravy). The eggs were not cooked as requested. The waitress never came to check up on warming up the coffee which wasn't even hot. Also, it wasn't even busy. We were like the only table of 5 there. Then only 2 other customers that's it. I'm sorry but breakfast items to me are simple and quick and should not pose that much difficulty. I hope that this review and critique is taken to heart!!

Went there yesterday for breakfast. I have lived in Oregon City for most of my life, and for some reason I just heard about this place. Walking in is just like going into an old fashion diner. I immediately fell in love with all the memorabilia everywhere on the walls. As soon as me and my wife sat down, Pappy the owner came over, put his hand on my shoulder, said welcome in and asked if we needed a cup of coffee. Afterwards, he came back with 2 cups of delicious coffee and asked us if this was our first time visiting and where we were from. The omelets we ordered were so big, we both needed a to go box. And i couldn't finish mine the next day! This will be our go to breakfast spot as long as they are open. Can't say enough good things about this delicious diner!

Good food that’s very reasonably priced and the portions are huge. Lots of items are made from scratch. Friendly nice staff. The owner walked around to say “Good morning” to all his customers which made it very inviting. This is a must try in the Canby area. We came from Woodburn. Open 7-2 Weds-Sun. We’ll be back to try lunch next time. Oh and don’t let the name scare you, none of the food was greasy 🤫😉

We stopped by pappys greasy spoon in search of a great home style breakfast option in Canby. When we arrived pappys greasy spoon is located in a small shopping mall. There was plenty of parking. Make sure that you bring cash. At the time of our visit they were only accepting cash - there is an atm located across the street. The food was just as you would expect it! Great breakfast and the burgers coming out to guests also looked good! I would pass on the hasbrowns - they lacked seasoning. We will be back!

Unfortunately the food I got tasted like soap, the waitress was kind enough to take it back and swap out the order but I got something cheaper and was still charged for my first order. To be fair they were pretty busy on a Saturday and understaffed but it didn't change the bad experience I had with the food. I've sent back food twice in my whole life and this was one of them. Anytime I took a bite my stomach hurt. The best part is the old American time ambiance of the place. A lot of retro designs, logos and characters across their walls. Might give it another try but this put a bad taste in my mouth unfortunately.

I've had much better biscuits and gravy from my school cafeteria. no seasoning at all, just a flavorless and strange mystery paste on top of prepackaged tube biscuits. Some people may like it that way(old people) just not for me. the ai generated character on the menu is off putting and slightly disturbing to say the least.

Great diner! Pappy himself stopped at the table to say hi. Chicken fried steak steak with eggs and hash browns were excellent. The gravy was tasty but not heavily seasoned. True diner decorations rounded out breakfast nicely

Returning from a Wilsonville errand, got the hankering for a pancake and looked up my Yelp help to divert to Pappy's! It's easy to miss on the 2nd Ave as it's hidden on the side of a white building around the corner from the Jui Jitsu club. Crane your neck after that first building and eyeball the American Flag next to a built-up wall sign, Holly Street MALL that looks like only office names would appear, and it's the first door on the right. Prices can't be beat even with the $2.00 increase on Entrees and $1.00 Sides and lotsa home made goodies like the corned beef hash, pork sausage patties, biscuits, etc and lots to choose from and I overheard Pumpkin Bread is on deck! Menus are laminated so you'll see handwritten signs on the front door and inside to notify you of the price increase. THE GRUB Hubby loved loved his sirloin steak about 12oz just $12.50, rare as ordered with nice char grill marks still, sunny eggs, browns, house biscuit and just can't wait to return! Waitress sold me on the Dog Leg $11.00, 2 house sausage patties and eggs (poached soft one was little clear but didn't have to send back) and opted for red home fries which were well seasoned and grilled, so much so hubby ate many when his fork typically turns away! With English Muffin, it was food overload (winge) to add a $4 pancake that I REALLY wanted but tabled for next trip.. COFFEE $2.00 is not bad, like a Farmers Bros brew, forgot to ask..hot and plentiful and stays hot in the standard mugs they use, yes! Those other common off-white concave ones in many breakfast houses just lose heat way too quickly. DECOR is old school black & white checker floor and red diner Coca Cola all about, and the waitress blends in with her tall beehive! Service is attentive and no nonsense but nice enough :D we'll be back!

This morning my family and I were in the mood for breakfast and didn't want to go to a classic chain restaurant. I ended up finding Pappy's on Yelp and instantly knew that we had to go. From the second you walk in you get a cozy diner and old vintage decor. That right there I knew we found a winner. Staff was friendly and attentive. The food was tasty and those homemade biscuit were AMAZING. I definitely recommend Pappy's and I look forward to going back.

Food was excellent; loved the fried red potato's. Excellent service! The service was accompanied by the whistling owner!

Very Disapponted. I had the burger with ham and an egg. Burger and fries were both way over cooked.

Food, service and atmosphere is great. Old time cafe feel. This is the kind of small business you want to support.

The food matches the restaurant name. Service was good. Pappy, the owner walked the floor and chatted with all of the patrons.

Great service, food and atmosphere. They have a great steak and eggs breakfast. I love their sausage and eggs. Priced right.

So this is kinda disturbing my dad and me went there for breakfast and my dad has a service dog that he takes with him and when we went in pappy's to have breakfast He embarrassed us in front of everybody and told us that we had to leave because of the dog which is a certified service dog.

Love this little joint... food is amazing and love the retro Coca Cola decoration. Lots of locals, we happened to be passing by and glad we stopped. Staff is very friendly and offered great service.

The biscuits & gravy were pretty much inedible. Gravy was cold and strangely textured, biscuits tasted like baking soda. The card machine wasn't working and we had to go get cash out of the ATM across the street...wish we would've dined and dashed because we left hungry :(

The breakfast was very good for the most part. I was very disappointed with Pappy's country gravy. There was no meat or milk in it. It was the worst gravy that I have ever eaten. I mentioned this to his waitress, and she did not seem to care

Pappy's is a friendly happy restaurant with friendly service great food and plentiful servings. The dining room is decorated with lots of Coke memorabilia it is a happy place. I've been going there enough in the last 5 years I'm now considered a "Regular". That's a first for me. My wife and I eat here about every other month. I have not run the menu as yet, but I have never found anything I didn't like. The prices are more than fair!

Terrible breakfast! Hash browns had been sitting forever so they were hard and cold. When they brought me new ones they were undercooked and greasy. Roast was burnt and over buttered. Omelette was ok and waffle was good but whipped cream was not served on side as requested. Waitresses had absolutely no personality. I would never recommend this place or return.

Wonderful diner where Pappy himself may greet you at your table and make sure you're happy.

I love the plates ambient comfortable with low music I appreciate Mitzy who was a great bartender

We went to pappys for our first time today! It was great! The servers were friendly, the food (especially the sausage Patties were yummy) we will definitely be back! Pappy, the owner, was also there and came out and introduced himself which was even better!

Alton Brown has a quote. "A dish is only as good as its worst ingredient." I ordered the biscuits and gravy. I don't normally order biscuits and gravy because I like a little more variety, but I wasn't super hungry. However I wish I was. I could tell that they gravy was homemade. It was nice and smooth. Perfect consistency. The only thing was that I wanted a little more sausage in it. If that sausage was so special it should have been featured more. Instead the most prevalent flavor was black pepper. The biscuits were pretty awesome. Definitely homemade. Nice and soft. Reminded me of my wife's. I would definitely be back to try some other things. I could see that gravy, peppery as it was, on a chicken fried steak. I saw a plate of onion rings and a patty melt. Oooh I want to try that too. I'll be back Service was excellent. Very accommodating and friendly. I'd return for that alone.

Found this breakfast spot on Google while driving through Canby. It was a little hard to find but had signs to help. Had the ham and eggs which were amazing! Probably the best ham I've ever had at a diner. Husband had pork chops and eggs and they were delicious. Prices were amazing and the diner was super cute with a 60's diner feel. Would go here again if we are passing through!

We love this place. Great food - exactly what you want from a diner. Seasoned well and cooked well. Pappy and the staff are friendly and welcoming (and kind to my kids), and the restaurant has small town character. Come get breakfast here!

Great breakfasts! The owner is a hoot! This is my go to breakfast diner! I dare you to order a Pepsi here!

Incredible food, pancakes taste just like Elephant Ears! Great people and extremely sweet waitresses. Great environment that's nice and welcoming.

Good staff and service, polite and helpful. The breakfast of bacon and eggs were cooked to perfection, crisp hashbrowns and good wheat toast. The coffee and half and half were delicious and fresh. The parking lot was full, so I had to park down the street and walk, but it was worth it.

I went to pappys to try it for the first time with a friend .... We walk in the waiter a young girl doesn't even acknowledge that we're standing there so I just assumed that you just take a seat so we did. She already has an attitude on her face when she comes over to the table and asked what to you want to drink we tell her... she doesn't come back for 15 min. She comes over we order our food and she steps away . 25 min out order is up she brings us our food doesn't say a word and slides it across the table.. at that point I knew there was a issue.. my friends child ordered a chocolate shake the waiter young girl the niece of the owner forgets about the shake. Oh well right she will come around again and ask how we're doing if we need more water. NO 35 min went by without her even acknowledging that we're sitting at the table by that time, I was just waiting to see how long it would take for her to acknowledge us ask us if we need to go boxes etc. nothing I had to walk up to the counter and pay and tell her I'm still waiting on the shake and to just make it to go... she said "fuck" I'm sorry... and took 10 min to make a shake while texting on her phone while making the shake!! Then I walk to the table and ask for a to go box and she doesn't even look at me from across the room and says "there right there" at that point I was highly upset we did nothing but want to try a mom and pop shop but I would highly recommend never coming to the place ever again. You have this young girl running the front that is a reputation of your restaurant the people up front show the customers what the restaurant is all about. I'm disgusted with the way we were treated there.

Great breakfast with locals. Pappy was there and made us feel welcomed. Food was good.

This place was great! Found it based on yelp reviews. I ordered the chicken fried steak. One of the vest ever! Got sliced tomatoes vs hash browns. No extra charge. My buddy got an omelet that looked amazing. Huge slices of meat. Our waitress was very good. The owner even stopped by to thank us for coming in. Perfect experience. Will be back.

This is a greasy spoon review. I'll treat it as such. Greasy spoons have their own class. Honestly, I'm not much for them anymore. I'm forty. Greasy foods do evil things to my bodily functions. However, fond memories and a partner that enjoys greasy food coma's have led us to Pappy's. One of Canby's breakfast hotspots, Pappy's promises gravy to die for and the friendliest service for miles around. This 50's style diner with a Coca-Cola fetish is straight out of a movie. Oh, I wanted that Chicken Fried Steak. Love the stuff. It does not love me. I've had beautiful affairs with breakfast sandwiches so I went with the McMikie (ham) and added some onions because I was given the awesome power to do so. My companions opted for the French Toast and (yay!) the CFS!!! I got to steal a bite. Breakfast is served all day. Prices run about $8.00-$11.00. Pappy is walking around. He's smiling and shaking hands. He even offered up a few hugs. He's the Santa Claus of diners. How can you not love him and his booming voice?! He's literally one of the most openly jovial and friendliest men I have ever met. Also, he's hilarious. This is turning into more than food. It's becoming a happening. I freaking love it. Biscuits are fresh out of the oven he says. My companion wants one instead of toast. Has he been good? Pappy asks. Yes. Okay, he gets a biscuit. Food was great! This is diner food as it was meant to be. Thick cut of ham, crispy fried steak, buttery potatos, light and creamy gravy all with a fresh sweet biscuit. Combine the food with the atmosphere and top it all off with Pappy himself. How could I punch in anything less than five stars?

Old school 50's vibe "ma and pa" style diner, the food is good, the service is great and I love supporting places like this. Will be back for sure.

Met a friend here for brunch and what a delightful find! Servings were HUGE, everything tasted wonderful, and the decor is super cute. It's definitely a mom and pop sort of place, so don't come if you're in a hurry. But we really enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back.

This place is the BOMB!! Friend brought me here for the first time a couple weeks ago and I have come back with hubby and another friend since then. Pappy and his crew can cook up a storm! Had Sausage Gravy and biscuits with eggs and link sausage and it was wonderful. The sausage links were to die for, no idea the brand but guessing local. Eggs cooked over medium were cooked to perfection. The Clam Chowder on Fridays is a great fill up for lunch when you get a bowl. Great staff and customers. Oh and the "Take out" Cinnamon roll is huge! He also makes fried Gizzards that my hubby absolutely loves! Cooked to perfection... His words not mine.. They even have seating for a group, so I'd call ahead to see if the back room is open, just in case we beat you there!

A 50,s theme cafe, which has really good breakfast. The staff is warm and friendly, with great service. It's a nice place to try something different for a breakfast spot.

Definitely has a 50's vibe, but even better the staff were nice which is rare . The food was great and the service was top notch. The only recommendation I would suggest would be a little more sausage in the gravy.

Im from CA and stopped at this location while doing some training out in Canby. The Country fried steak was amazing the service was great and pappy was hilarious. If I'm ever back that way I will definitely need to make a stop

We were in town for a family emergency and needed some comfort food STAT. Luckily this place hit the spot and then some! The staff was so sweet and the food was delicious; needless to say, we were very glad to have found ourselves at Pappy's Greasy Spoon.

This is exactly what it advertises. A greasy spoon that serves diner food. The quality ingredients, cooked to order food and down home setting deliver all that you should ever hope to ask for from the classic, made famous in the fifties dinner. I've had their country fried steak now three or four times and they have not disappointed. The wife had eggs Benedict, the thick slices of ham being a great variation. The service is upbeat, quick and efficient. Food is brought out quickly and piping hot. The prices are not the same as the fifties diner but they are not unreasonable in today's market. If you're looking for comfort food in a well appointed dinner, this place won't disappoint you either.

Excellent breakfast, friendly service. Will definitely be back when in the area. Lots of cool antiques to look at while waiting to eat.

The biggest surprise is that they haven't been around for ages in this location. They are definitely going for a 50s era all-American diner complete with classic Coca-Cola signage, but it only opened in May of last year. I've visited for breakfast and lunch and enjoyed both meals. This is straight up non-pretentious diner food. Portions are large, prices are reasonable and if Pappy is around, you'll get a little sass with your meal. On my first breakfast visit, Pappy asked if I wanted coffee. When I responded, "No, thanks," he amended to "shot of whisky?" You're getting warmer... I really enjoyed breakfast, because I was the only girl in the place and definitely the only corporate-type. If I'm not mistaken, they open at the crack of dawn (~ 5:30a) and breakfast is served all day. All the other diners in the early morning were men in work boots grabbing a meal before heading out for a long day's work. My first visit was around Christmas time and the local Canby high school carolers came by and treated us all to a song. It just added to the local color and small town feel. Lunch tends to have more of a mixed, but still local, crowd. I've sat at the counter every time and the cook has usually checked in and asked if I liked my meal. Just down the road toward Aurora is the historic Top 'o Hill diner. That is more authentic, but I have to say, my current preference is Pappy's. Lighter, brighter, plus a dash of smartass.

A little hole in the wall breakfast diner, but wow, super delicious and great. You literally become family when you walk in. Pappy and Lisa were super awesome and sweet. Pappys creations are amazing and highly recommend! Pappy was so friendly and seem like a very genuine, loving person. It was not busy for a Wednesday late am, but I'm sure it's packed on the weekend! It was great hearing their story, and can't give them enough praise for their service. We had the French toast, and the skillet- HUGE PORTIONS- and that biscuit, DAYUM.

So I have been here several times and can say with certainty it's not a great place. The food is ok but not great. Serving size is ok but not great. Service is spotty at best. Yesterday as a party of 4 we ordered 2 cinnamon rolls, split breakfast and a burger. Took over an HOUR to get our food!!!! AND while waiting my friends coffee cup handle broke off spilling coffee all down the front of him. Luckily it was cold from waiting so long. After this happened it took 5 minutes and waving our hands to get noticed by the staff. Then just set a fresh cup down after a snarky comment "this handle is good" not much of an apology. After all the waiting and coffee incident we first get our cinnamon rolls at 45 minutes in. Which were ok, no frosting just powered sugar & butter. They were soft & fresh. Then comes the split order at 55 minutes in. They were happy with their food (and super hungry at this point). I waited another 10 minutes for my food. When it came it looked good & hot. The wolf burger was ok, nice slice of ham and egg with a little cheese, big slice of tomato and not much else. Tasted decent but not great. Then I went for the curly fries which I was pretty excited about. Boy what a let down, they were greasy and soggy. I could not eat them. So after all that you'd figure a comp right?? NOPE!! Not one thing!!! Just flopped the check down and moved on. No apologies, nothing!!! WTF??!!!!! Luckily my friend insisted on paying or I would have caused a scene. Needless to say I will never go back here again nor will anyone else I know.

This place is the bomb. They have the best chocolate chip pancakes in town. My grandpa used to take me here before he moved away. I highly recommend this establishment. I also love their decor the vintage theme pairs very well with the food.

As much as I love the atmosphere of Pappy's Greasy Spoon, our experience was only A-OK. The checkerboard floor, bar counter seating, and all the Coke decor is cool, and the place has a great vibe and good service; but the food was not on par with several other restaurants serving the same genre of food (within a 20 minute driving radius). I ordered the Bob's Best breakfast, and I really enjoyed the thick cut ham, the well-cooked fried eggs, and the fluffy biscuit; but found the breakfast potatoes to have excessive char on them -- so much so that I didn't enjoy them. My wife enjoyed her biscuits and gravy, but my daughter's pancake was very dense and tough -- not fluffy at all. Better pancakes can easily be made with a bag of Krusteaz. My son liked his burger alright, but said the fries had a strange texture to them -- again, not fluffy on the inside, but very dense. The ham and eggs hit the spot after my 8 mile run this morning, and the decor was cool; but I think next time I would choose to go elsewhere.

Best breakfast I've had in a while. Friendly staff, quick service and delicious food. Lots of local regulars having breakfast so I knew I was in the right place. The eggs Benedict was fantastic. Not a bite left on my plate. I'm going back tomorrow to try their house made sausage. I wish there were more of these joints around. Good food, friendly people, and fast service.

Solid small town American dinner. Food is yummy but nothing to write home about. Service is super friendly and fast, even with a bunch of customers. We came for an early morning breakfast and main room was close to full by 8:45am on a Saturday. Food rundown: - Full Order of Biscuits and Gravy: Four large half biscuits smothered with gravy, large enough to cover the entire plate. The biscuits were wonderful and super fresh, by far my favorite part of our meal. The gravy was super smooth and creamy and has a little bit of sourness to it that we weren't expecting. Very filling. - Corned Beef Hash: Two slices of buttered toast on top of two eggs and a bit of corned beef mixed with potatoes, onions, peppers mixed. Nice flavors but really wished there was more corned beef. It ended up being more like potatoes with a sprinkling of beef.

This place has that home town feel good vibe to it. The food is outstanding, cheap, the service is next to none. Love the Smitty Smasher. Pappy has a great thing going here. Would recommend to anyone looking for a breakfast that stands above the rest.

I really wanted to like this place. I mean, come on, a greasy spoon? What's not to like about a greasy spoon? Some days, that's exactly what you want: greasy, home-cooked, down-to-earth food. So that's where we headed - five of us who've driven by this place many times but have never been inside. I don't know about the other four of us, but this one of us will not be going back. First of all, the service was horrid: haphazard, mish-mashed, servers interrupting other servers, trying to get answers to questions about the menu, you name it. Then once we finally got our order taken and the food began to arrive, it came at different times for each one of us. The biscuits and gravy came out first, then came a sandwich, then came the kids' food, and last and definitely least, came my fish and chips. As you can see from my photo, the plate has grease splattered all over it, no doubt from the whimpy, wilty, not-even-hot french fries and from the tiniest two little pieces of over-fried fish that I've ever seen on a plate. Yes, it's a greasy spoon, but I truthfully don't think I was expecting real grease to be splattered all over my plate. Even so, that wouldn't have been so bad if the french fries had been anything other than what they were and if there had been more than 3 bites of fish. A tiny cup of cole slaw completed my lunch plate, along with another tiny cup of tartar sauce, although I suppose any more than that little bit of tartar sauce would have been irrelevant since there were only two very small pieces of fish (from the photo I took, it's difficult to tell exactly how big these pieces of fish are, but trust me when I say they are each roughly the same size as my thumb). The cole slaw and tartar sauce were served in what's called a paper souffle cup and are probably the 4-ounce size; each cup was about half full, making it about 2 ounces each of slaw and sauce, or the equivalent of 1/4 cup. Needless to say, Pappy's will not be getting my business again any time soon. Too bad because I had such high hopes for a cool little ol' greasy spoon.

This place is awesome! It's staffed/owned by people who are personable, friendly and easy going. If you want delicious food in a great atmosphere this is your place. You won't be treated like a walking COVID 19 disease! If you are part of the population that are afraid your going to get COVID from people when they are standing and once seated they are immune then your not mentally stable enough to drive a car so STAY HOME an STAY SAFE! If you want to use common sense and logical thinking then this is your place! Enjoy!
