Customer Reviews
Such a fun and delicious experience at the Pancake House! Whether you dine in or take out, it is excellent and generous portions of food and service. The order out, to go system is very convenient with a very friendly website and easy to use ordering. Definitely a wonderful way to start the day. Highly recommend breakfast here.
We used to eat here a lot until as few years ago when the service had really gone “down hill”. I had heard they’ve since changed ownership and the grandkids wanted pancakes this morning so I ordered Uber Eats ( 3 kids pancake meals which were $11-12 each with an added $1.50 for a few chocolate chips, plus an adult meat & eggs breakfast meal which was $22, and all were very basic breakfast meals ). Now I remember why we haven’t been here in so long! Each of the 4 meals included sausage links. The sausages were so burnt that nobody touched them! The rest of the food was certainly lacking as well. The scrambled eggs were nothing more than what you would find in a lower end motel and seemed like they may have been powdered. It was hard to tell, but either way not one of us ate the eggs either.
Excellent service. Great corned beef hash. The only criticism is to dust the large cast iron pan chandelier above the large table. Dust might drop in food.
The service and atmosphere was great. Unfortunately the food was just... mid. The waffles were reminiscent of the box you get at the grocery, and everything about the biscuits and gravy was unremarkable. We couldn't help but think we could have made it better at home. This place is lucky they don't have breakfast competition.
OPH has always been a great local spot for a step up in quality when choosing breakfast/brunch. I will say, there is some inconsistency in who cooks. For example, whoever made my carryout burrito at ~7AM on Feb. 20 made it with love. The tortilla was heated up, there was an even distribution of filling components, and they wrote which burrito was which (we had 2). On other days, the tortilla is stiff and cold, the ingredients were in clumps, and we have to physically open our burritos to figure out whose is whose. Would love to see them all made the way that the Friday cook did, especially because it’s over $20 for two burritos before tip.
