First time visiting and it was enough for me to not consider eating there again . The food was cold , not just the eggs but the bacon and potatoes . You are better off making your food at your house

Best place in Charlotte if you’re looking for a simple, classic brekky! I love going here after a night shift. Pancakes, waffles, omelettes, everything on their menu is great! You get exactly what you order. Great value too. Highly recommend checking this restaurant out if you’re in the mood for a simple, yummy brekky!

Somewhat pricey breakfast/brunch but worth every penny. Servers have always been super friendly and this time was no exception. Coffee, Bacon, Eggs Benedict, Fruited Crepes. What else do you need?

Truly an Original! Take a step back in time with original diner style breakfast. All 3 of our meals were terrific and topped off with 3 of the lightest pancakes we have ever eaten. Wear your stretchy waist pants for sure because you won't want to leave a bite on the plate!

It’s been 7 years since I’ve visited the Original Pancake House. The food is just as good as I remember. The service was incredible! The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There is a ramp right by the accessible parking. There is technically outdoor and indoor dining but I think people only eat indoors. The isles are narrow so be cognizant of that if using a mobility device. It may be better to sit at the front of the restaurant. Most tables are set up for 4 guests. Others can be combined for larger parties.Highly recommend to anyone! I don't eat pancakes, I would always opt for a biscuit. That is not on an option here and I know why. Best pancakes I have ever had! Delicious and warm! Craving one as I write this post.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There is a ramp right by the accessible parking.

I come here two or three times a week. I loved to order the Canadian bacon but it has changed. The Canadian bacon is now like some kind of cheap lunch meat from Walmart. I have to ask for Splenda and extra napkins. It appears the new owners are real tight wads. I now notice that the restaurant is not very crowded. Cutting corners and being cheap does not constitute a loyal following. I started going to Snooze and they have everything and a pleasant change.

Kinda feel sorry for reviewers who think this place is great. Maybe I just got it on a bad day but they need Robert Irvine in the worst way! Waitress was super nice and attentive/apologetic--none of this is on her. Everyone was wearing coats it was so cold, which made the generic food get cold very quickly. Came here for the apple pancake--their FLAGSHIP item-- and the one item they let themselves run out of ingredients for! So ordered eggs benedict and swedish lingonberry pancakes. Pancakes came out cold. Texture fine, not much on flavor. The lingonberry sauce I assume was from a jar and was ICE cold. The eggs benedict was a generic muffin with a generic thin slice of canadian bacon topped with a homemade egg covered in generic Hollandaise sauce. Like what you would make yourself at home in a hurry. The potato pancake side was the best item of all because it seemed scratch made and had some flavor. Kitchen looks grungy. Place needs a face lift and correcting the food issues. But for now I guess they'll cruise along on the adverts promising a pancake house experience you won't soon forget. And in a way, they are not wrong.
