Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Wake 'n Bacon offers a unique dining experience with "great food" and "exceptional ambiance." The ordering system is modern, utilizing QR codes for quick service. Guests rave about the "delicious" bacon and creative dishes. However, some find the service impersonal and the ordering process challenging. A perfect spot for Instagram-worthy brunches!

    They’re trying way too hard here. You have to order through a QR code app or up at the counter when you first walk in.  Then they have a little buttons you have to push to even have the server come over to the table.  No salt , no pepper & I had to pay for ketchup. Great food, but absolutely nothing else about this place was good.

    The food and service was great. The seating is a little close together due to the size of the place. The only negative part was trying to find parking.
