Original Pancake House Reviews
Service was good, waitress was friendly, and most importantly the food was good! Not a lot of different options on the menu, which benefits them by being able to put out quality food. I had the chocolate chip waffle and it was a great "dessert waffle". Prices were reasonable. What stood out was the seasoned breakfast potatoes. They were made fresh, I was expecting frozen, but they were very good and seasoned well.
This is one of my favorite breakfast places. The omelettes are always delicious and they have so many types of pancakes. I usually get the Irish Omelette which has corned beef and hash with cheddar cheese and bacon pancakes. My last visit, I got an everything omelette with the blueberry pancakes and they were both amazing. My wife got a ham and cheese omelette and blueberry pancakes. Everything was awesome.

We stopped in at 8am on a Saturday morning. We were seated immediately and our waitress was excellent. Nice big open space inside this place. It would be good for groups as many of the tables and areas would be quickly moved into place. We had good food and good customer service. I had a side of pancakes with my omelet and both were great and I left with a full belly.
