Time now for the meal many college students don't realize exists ... unless it is served after midnight.

golden corral especially on a saturday morning!

I actually like Chick-Fil-A more than any of those listed, but I voted for IHOP.

[LUconn]

ihop is too much of a ripoff for what you're getting.

[Cider Jim]

Cracker Barrel by far, unless you want...
pancakes = IHOP
buffet = Golden Coral (Friday - Sunday)

[SuperJon]

Famous Anthony's is good, but Cracker Barrel is too.

[RagingTireFire]

I have yet to be seated and served in any IHOP on the same day. It's like they deliberately hire the crippled, the infirm and the terminally distracted as their waitstaff.

[BJWilliams]

Ive actually had nothing but good experiences at IHOP all hours of the day. I dont know when you go or where you go RTF

[Purple Haize]

I am all about Cracker Barrel. but I went with the Kup this year. If you can get over the smoke, you will find a breakfast every bit as hearty and filling as The Barrel and for a lot less. Plus, I am giving it the nod b/c of it being a "Local" which IMHO should be a tie breaker for any decision

cracker barrel is simply disgusting.

Colonial is freaking amazing.

You'd rather have Little Ceasar's and you think Cracker Barrel is disgusting. Yea, why am I not surprised?

how is this possible? I don't think I've had anything there that I didn't love. Some of it is on the heavy side, though.

Have you ever ordered their OATMEAL? But it's not their fault: all oatmeal is gross.

[RagingTireFire]

The use of oatmeal should be federally restricted to cookies and horse feed.

I’m wondering why HMO didn’t vote for Panera.

[Sly Fox]

That was actually El Scorcho who nominated last year and since he's no longer active on the board it doesn't appear to be getting much love.

[Cider Jim]

With all respect to our beloved El Scorcho, Panera is mostly a woman's restaurant.

We discussed this here:

That’s why I brought up HMO.

[flamesbball84]

I can't remember what it was I had when I went to Cracker Barrel - all I remember is that it was a ripoff and tasted disgusting.

[rogers3]

OK- so I'm the lone vote for Panera, but if you haven't had their glorified egg mcmuffin sandwich, you wouldn't understand. They are also a customer of mine, which makes me partial- but not a woman!

Cracker Barrel is far and away the cheapest sit down restaurant around. I doubt there's anything over $12 on the menu. Although I suppose if you think something tastes bad, it's a ripoff that you had to pay for it at all.

[bigsmooth]

bob evans without a doubt. though the mean old lady hostess/cashier hurts the experience.

[Hold My Own]

Yeah....it's not quite the Hooter's experience...but what is
