Perkins Restaurant & Bakery

The interior is welcoming, warm, and inviting. The establishment itself is aptly situated, as it is in proximity to many businesses that daily consumers typically utilize for daily needs. The food is quite decent, but the bacon was a bit off the mark and overall the food could have been bolstered with a bit more seasoning. There are a multitude of options on the menu though for the entire family. This was my first time at this location and my first time in quite a while at Perkins in general. The establishment has a Cracker Barrel atmosphere minus the wall decorations and the accompanying gift shops that Cracker Barrel is known for. The menu prices are very comparable to that of Cracker Barrel as well as the energy that is reminiscent of the good old-fashioned restaurant establishment experience. This establishment also offers pie by the slice or whole pies that are made on-site. Pam, our server, was absolutely top notch, as she checked on my guest and I frequently and always possessed a humble, welcoming personality and a warm smile that is infectious. With a bit more seasoning and a better bacon product, this establishment would improve immensely from a culinary standpoint. But the service is memorable and the food is not far off the mark, so I will be returning again soon.

Good late meal. Seems to be a college student meet place which means good food at a great pric - we found that to be true. The table service was great.

They seem to be short-staffed. The server was a young pregnant woman who did the best she could but was managing at least eight tables at a time, the whole time we were there. It's better than the last time we tried it. We waited 20 minutes to be seated and finally went home. The food sat in the window too long and everything was lukewarm. I'm not sure that they grilled the mushrooms for my steak at all. We've always been big fans of Perkins. This particular store has been a little bit of a disappointment.

Ist time doing a drive thru. These folks did everything spot on. The grounds and comfort buildings are beautiful and well kept. The animal experience was extraordinary. We had to keep your eyes peeled in order not to miss a lounging animal. Well supplied gift shop and snack bar. Great family outing dont miss it if your near Rapid City SD.
