Excellent Brunch Experience. We went on a Sunday during a busy brunch time. Found parking right away in the free lot. Were greeted right away. Waited 5 minutes to be seated. Ordered within 5 minutes of sitting down. Received our food within 10 minutes of ordering. The place was packed yet the service was still excellent. The tables weee bused quickly, the menu’s were clean feeling. The options were plenty. Tatiana was our waitress & the staff was pleasant & efficient. The food was delish & they do allow adjustments to the menu items. I highly recommend this for your breakfast/brunch needs. We’ll definitely be back!

This was the best breakfast I had in a long time. Coffee was good too. I got some sort of German pancake with strawberries and bananas. Delicious. Cheesy grits with bacon were decent. I think a stronger cheese would help flavor. Bacon skillet was awesome too. Great experience! I will be back!!

The Original Pancake House has always been a nostalgic location for my family to come together. I have so many memories coming here as a child and now I’m happy to continue celebrating special occasions here as an adult. The employees are friendly and attentive to your needs. The food is always amazing- I’ve never eaten anything I didn’t like! I look forward to my next visit! The Apple Pancake and German pancake are two of my favorites!

this place is phenomenal ! I've been to several locations but nothing like this the dutch baby was perfect and the apple pancake reminded me of the one my mom used to make. very eclectic clean interior with extraordinarily caring and attempting staff memembers. highly recommend this location for the food service and atmosphere. it's not often I'm blown away but the dutch baby is a difficult thing do well in a resturaunt environment with a rush etc and they did a truly stand out job.

Top notch breakfast and lunch spot. My family and I have been coming here for years. After moving away from the area, we decided to take the long drive here just to eat their delicious German pancakes. They have really good bacon as well. Food is always hot and delicious. Service is awesome, always someone walking around and attentive. I highly recommend eating here, especially breakfast!
