I HATE that they use the Giant American Flag as their "here we are" banner so I am a bit glad that the ones around here are all closing .... Pre-Covid even !
Over priced... nothing special .... franchised sit-down-restaurant food ! Was given some gift cards to use there and was not impressed.

I like perkins! We do not have them here in central Calif But when we visit iowa it is one of our traditions. My twin nieces worked at them in cedar rapids iowa! Great Americana food. I usually get the roast beef open faced sandwich. The prices are reasonable compared to Cali food. And the pies!! Ah!! I had cherry. They even had rhubarb pie which is catman's favorite . ( CatmanI lied)

Have not been to one in over 15 years. We used to stop by the one off of 94/Madison on our way to the cabin(by the Dells). Let the doggie out to do business, grab some muffins/cookies-occasionally grab a to go omelet that one of them would suck down. It was decent. For someone who is a pro baker, I loved their muffins. The rest of my family would eat in, & they liked it enough.

I am not much of a fan. The food is very bland. I feel bad for the cooks who have to churn the food out. Could there be a worst fate than being a cook that cooks boring and bland food?
And the pie is nothing special. If you want pie go to Baker's Square.

Nothing wrong with a flag being out front of a business many many business have them. I agree it's quite large but there is nothing wrong in showing your patriotism. I hope BLM doesn't burn the restaurants down.

I asked if Perkins in Canada use giant Canadian flags but have not gotten a reply to that question yet !

are you a fan? and what do you typically get? I worked has a cook in a Perkins back in the early 80s, a lifetime ago. It was before they had a bakery to their name. Basically it was a hybrid pancake House back then. The food was marginal at best. They were trying to do too much on their menu so nothing was all that good.

I asked if Perkins in Canada use giant Canadian flags but have not gotten a reply to that question yet ! I googled "Perkins location in Canada" then came up with a site that had locations and directions which forward you to Google map. Many of the stores don't have flags. one had a oversized flag (Saskatchewan location) but not as big as the ones in the US. and one other store had Canadian and American flags over it Canada Perkins locations
