About us

Our Story

A place to meet, A place to eat

The secret of the Fireside family’s success lies in our many recipes cooked from scratch, including yeast risen bread, pancakes and waffle batter, maple syrup, and many others.

Our lunch entrees are always fresh and tasty. Some of our specialties include slow-cooked, flavorful pot roast, Italian-style spaghetti, the sauce of which has been served at the Crist household for over forty years, moist, delicious meat loaf, and many homemade soups, sandwiches, and daily specials.

Fireside Restaurant and Pancake Inn opened its doors to Hendersonville natives and traveling clientele March 1, 1997. We’ve grown rapidly since then because of our commitment to fresh foods and fast friendly services. Our business began in a small one-room dining room which included a cozy fireplace, hardwood floors and bright cheery skylights above. Within a short time we opened a second dining room, converted from an existing greenhouse, and our satisfied regular customers quickly multiplied.

Let us introduce ourselves

Come visit the Fireside family for a fresh, home-cooked dining experience, and we’ll welcome you back many times as family and friends.
