Food is great, and service is great despite a very high-volume business. Staff is always friendly. The food is typical Midwest breakfast and lunch food, but done well. read more

My husband and I were in Plainfield, Indiana after dropping out son off at college. We stayed in the Embassy Suites which offers made to order breakfast (but it really did not due to Covid.) Based on the reviews we tried this place as well as Oasis across the street. Needless to say, we did not return to Oasis and looked forward to an excellent breakfast at Flap Jacks. We went there four days in a row and would have continued to return but we had to return to California. Flap Jacks has a staff of people waiting to serve you, and food comes out within minutes from placing your order and it is delicious! You don't have to look around hoping that someone will see you to refill your coffee. The place is immaculately clean. I wish I could bring Flap Jacks home to California, but then the service and food would decline and the price three times as much. I am a jealous Californian. read more

My husband and I went there for breakfast Saturday morning and loved it. The pancakes were so light and fluffy, melted in my mouth!! My coffee cup was never more than half full...great service!!! read more

This has become the regular breakfast spot for myself and my coworkers. Over the past few years we've tried many of the breakfast joints around, but Flap Jack Pancake House pretty well takes the cake. The food is reasonably priced and consistently tasty, and it's open bright and early for those night shift folks who get off work at 6am. The menu is pretty typical for a breakfast joint, but everything I've had tastes delicious. The aroma of fresh cooked bacon can typically be smelled from the parking lot. The waitresses are friendly and attentive. They recognize us as regulars and can pretty well pinpoint items we might want to order. Give this place a try if you're looking for some good grub to start the day. And order the chocolate milk! read more

Food was so good the service was amazing and you got seated right way definitely try it

I love this little place for breakfast. We go a lot after church on Sunday. This is also the same time that a lot of other people go. However, we never have to wait more than 20 minutes to be seated and the food comes up within a 10 minutes of ordering. Food-they serve breakfast and lunch. I usually always go for the breakfast option. They have everything from pancakes to omelets. Everything I have tried here has been so good. I would suggest getting the Greek omelet. It is so good and has so many good flavors in it. Pricing- the pricing is so good. Most meals are between $7-$10 per person. For what you pay, you get a lot of food. Atmosphere- it is very laid back and casual. Most people come in to have breakfast with family or catch up with old friends. If you are looking for a good home breakfast place then stop here. read more

This place was so good. I'm not from the state and I was so hungry, so I searched on Google maps a place that served breakfast. I'm so glad this place popped up. I ordered the Kitchen Sink skillet and small OJ. I paid $12.32 in total. So worth it. read more

Solid spot in Plainfield for breakfast food throughout the day. I had an omelette (3 eggs) and hash browns. The portion size is large and the customer service is friendly. I will be back again to try something else on the menu. read more

Flapjacks is probably the best spot in Plainfield for breakfast. Occasionally come here after work with coworkers. It's pretty much like any other breakfast joint, except for the food. Everything I've had here has always been delicious. If you come here you have to get some bacon. I always enjoy smelling the bacon from outside when walking in to the restaurant. Breakfast is on point here, don't know about lunch never had it.The staff is always friendly and will get your food out to you quick. It's nice having such a good spot to go to after work for breakfast so close to work. read more

Flap Jack Pancake House - Spinach, Feta, and Bacon Omelette with 2 sides of Bacon. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Plainfield, Indiana

Ok, I tried this place out when we first moved to Plainfield ages (read: 4 years) ago. I was devastated when a place called Flap Jacks had disgusting pancakes. They were dense and grainy. We gave up on the place until this Memorial weekend. My husband and I were so hungry and just wanted something close. We decided to risk it... And I'm so glad we did! I even had some pancakes and they were GOOD! We even went back the next weekend. The service was better the first time because there was no one in there, but we didn't have bad service at any point. I had sausage patties, eggs, hash browns, and some of my husband's biscuits and gravy. It was all good. I will be coming here again! read more

My husband I an visit at least once a weekend. Great friendly service and delicious food. Only one time can I ever say something wasn't right and they took the item off the bill. Then when we went to pay at the register, we were given another discount. They care about their customers. It doesn't matter if you are a regular or just passing through. read more

This restaurant is Plainfield's best breakfast restaurant around. I have to admit, they have a full menu but I've only ordered breakfast there since it's my favorite meal. The staff are friendly, prices are great especially for the amount food you get and I've rarely waited more than 10 minutes for my order even though the place is usually packed. I hope and pray that they make it through these terrible times we are going through. read more

When your fork is holding a piece of a biscuit and you can see the flour on it, you know it was handmade. And then you taste the layers of dough and the sweetness of the biscuit and you DEFINITELY know it was homemade. That's Flap Jacks. I pass this place every time I take US-40 to Terre Haute yet I never stopped in for breakfast or lunch. The parking lot is always packed and now I know why. Open the large menu and you'll find every variation of eggs, biscuits, sausage and bacon imaginable. But you'll also find veggie omelets, breakfast sandwiches, sweet french toast and chipped beef in gravy (which is what I had) and all of it is authentic and delicious. You CANNOT beat the price. At all. My dad and I ate here (chipped beef with gravy and hash browns for me, he had eggs with hash browns and pancakes, all incredibly large portions) all for under $15.00. How had I been passing this place up?? Flap Jacks has five locations and I will surly be back at one of them to try out their lunch menu. Great food, great service. I'll be dreaming about that breakfast for a while now. read more

The waffle and bacon is good. The French toast is not traditional - it's like a cinnamon roll French toast, and it's just ok. Traditional French toast would be a better option. I come here very rarely due to the expense. I don't mind at all to spring some cash for a meal, but this place is extremely overpriced for what you get. Servers are prompt to check in and quick with refills. read more

Great place to hang with fantastic food! Awesome customer service! Nancy....you are awesome!!! read more

Torn between 3 and 4 stars...large assortment of home-cooked, tasty breakfast foods for a decent price. Good things: You get plenty of food for a reasonable price. I had pancakes this last time had much more on my plate than I could handle. They have plenty of pancake "flavors." I visited the Avon location awhile back and my omelet had nice-sized feta chunks in it. Both items were good. Service is pretty quick. Not so good: I ordered strawberry pancakes, I was hoping for strawberries in the pancakes (though looking back, seems more obvious that they would be on top). They were on top, which was fine, but were in that weird strawberry gel I'm not a fan of. Some strawberries in a little sugar with their own juice would have been much better. Our server was fine at first, but after a joking comment from my friend (which I didn't find to be offensive, it was playful, so maybe she perceived it otherwise), she seemed a bit hostile. Atmosphere is fine, typical mom 'n' pop restaurant type interior and feel. read more

I went to flap jacks this after noon for brunch. It has always been a local hot spot definitely on the weekends. Nothing extraordinaire, but solid decision none the less. I had the eggs with country fried steak, with hash browns. Like I said before, nothing too exciting here but "usually" decent service and decent food. Not a type of place I ache for. Seems to be consistent even time I go though. I have been here a few times through the years. I like these small chain joints, but it's a typical "small joint" feel. Worth a shot. read more

Always delicious and service is great. Large portions and reasonable prices. Lots of options on the menu. Two thumbs up!

Food is average. Another breakfast/lunch place with too much on the menu for any of it to be memorable. Average spots get 3 stars, but this spot gets 2 because our booth had water leaking from the ceiling. Apparently it was a known issue because the pleasant (term used very loosely) cashier acted annoyed when I brought it to her attention & she explained the leaking happens from condensation from the AC. I only brought it to her attention so they might reconsider seating other guests there so those guest won't have water dripping from the ceiling on to them, their food or their cell phone...like it did to mine. I would have come back to this place even with the unremarkable food & the leaky ceiling; however, the IDGAF attitude by the cashier solidifies my decision to never come back & to encourage others to choose any other restaurant in Plainfield besides this one. read more

Always great! Love the place, super service, hot food, never ending coffee. What's not to love?

My son really wanted pancakes! We were quickly greeted. But before I could sit down was asked what I wanted to drink by host/server! What the what?! We arrived 1:15, hour and 45 minutes prior to close...and many guests came in after. Server checked on us after two bites/2 minutes to drop the check...and say "thanks, no hurry, whenever you are ready." I understand needing to do sidework and fills, but when guests can see you ignoring them to get out early...poor service. I start at 50% tip everywhere, knowing seeing a mom and kid at table pisses off server! 10% off asking for drinks before I sat down. Every 5 minutes watching server do sidework while I all needed was a box, 20% off (10 minutes). Instead off $8, server got $3, still over 20%. Food was fast and tasty! Maybe don't go after 1pm?! read more

This review can be summed up in one word, cold. The pancakes, eggs and hash browns were luke warm at best. Also I said out loud "this is the worst cup of coffee I have ever had" very burnt coffee. Service was not bad and we got plenty of refills. The food is just lacking in anything really special. I could have had a fast food pancake and it would have tasted the same. The only thing I truly enjoyed is the proximity to US 40 and Plainfield makes it feel like a small vacation along the national highway. read more

Friendly place, but a bit scary due to weak compliance with COVID protocols. Good omelets, but surprisingly heavy pancakes that were only so-so. read more

Ok so I know the last review on here was a while ago so I thought I'd update.... ordered the food and was very surprised as to how FAST the food came out... well I know why , they must have all the common stuff already prepared and just sitting there. I had the western omelet and well my hashbrowns weren't cooked all the way , my pancakes were very doughy and not to mention kinda cold. My daughter had the French toast and I took a bite and was very spongy but her side of bacon was really good. I don't know if I would come back here. There is a place across the street I'd like to try called the Oasis so look for that review soon... on a side note the waitresses are really nice ... read more

I love this place!! The servers are great and the manager fabulous. We had breakfast, it was hot and served in a timely manner.

Flap Jack Pancake House is a nice place to come and grab some breakfast that tastes like it was made at home (in a good way). I ordered the skillet and thought it was very good. It needed a little salt, but I would rather have to add than have it be too salty. I did not really like the coffee, but everything else was good. I think what most impressed me about Flap Jacks was the service. Our coffee was always full, we were seated right away, the hostess and waitress were very friendly, and our food came out quickly. There wasn't a wait or a line for anything (I'm always a fan of that!). Very nice. read more

I love this place! I had a Mexican omelette and it was delish! My sister had the western omelette and she said it was delish! Our waitress was outstanding and I loved the way the seating is. I like this restaurant should get 5 out of 5! Me and my sister will be back in! read more

great food and lots of it...decent price. I eat here whenever I am teaching at the police academy

Their Mexican skillet is my favorite. Their pancakes are so fluffy! The servers are so sweet. We live right down the street and Flapjacks has become a weekly thing for us. Nancy, the owner, is so awesome. It's no wonder she has so many regulars!! read more

Fantastic. Independent business, terrific food in huge portions for little money. It's the perfect combination. Friendly waitstaff, fun atmosphere, and again, all their food is top notch. Good coffee, too. The best place for breakfast in Avon or Plainfield. I sense a new dukedom coming on... read more

Simple plain jane restaurant, but not their food! I got the Italian skillet and pancakes with pecans. The skillet was great! The pancakes were a little thick and dense, I prefer them thinner with a nice crunch on them. Our waitress was friendly and the perfect amount of attention. There were a few other people there, not a packed house but not empty either, a nice turn out for a Friday late breakfast. We got our food super fast- will be going back hopefully soon! read more

This is me and my wife's go to breakfast spot! Every time we go in the service is fantastic! Good is never ever a disappointment. The French toast is to die for and the skillet meals are too notch. Coffee is great and your mug is never empty. Wish the parking was a little better but I can get past that. I recommend this place to EVERYONE I know. read more

Food is good and portions are good. So glad they have tuned their televisions away from Fox News; can't take the propaganda news station.

First time eating here since we moved to Plainfield 9 months ago. The place was packed so we sat at the bar. Service was amazing. All the staff was very nice and friendly. Food came out very quick and was incredible! Can't wait to go back! read more

Fast, friendly, tasty, great prices. First time, won't be the last. The french toast is awesome!

A "good" breakfast is hard to find in the western-Indy suburbs, but Flap Jack's fills the void somewhat admirably. Breakfast - while I enjoy the pancakes, their "fluffiness" can be a detriment if you're not eating at an inhaling speed. The fluffiness comes from the lack of substance, thus it takes only a bit of butter and/or syrup for the pancakes to lose their consistency. You're left with "pancake mush" in short order. The sausage links are incredible. Spiced perfectly and large in size, to boot. Lunch - I've had limited experience with their lunch menu, yet enough to give it a score of "ok." Service - Up & down. From very tentative (coffee cup is never less than half full...or is that half empty?) to "I hope he/she comes back at some point." read more

I love Flap Jack's good food for the price. Very nice staff and management. You will not be disappointed.

If your not accustomed to fine dining this place is AOK. Not real maple syrup. The wait staff very friendly and service was good.

I love the homey feel, great prices, generous portions, and nice wait staff. First of all, this restaurant is what it is, and you get what you should be expecting; its a mom and pop-type breakfast and lunch only diner. The inside of the restaurant is cozy, clean, roomy, and inviting. The staff are all incredibly friendly and you get personal attention even during the weekend morning rush. The food is not the most incredible, but everything tastes really good and you get plenty of food. If you're in Plainfield/Avon area, this is one of the best places to eat breakfast. Better than the Cinnamon Rooster in my opinion, with a lot more charm. I also like that its a locally owned place and not a chain, which can be hard to find out here. The prices are good, the restaurant is clean, the staff is friendly, and you're supporting a local business when you go. I would recommend the pancakes (because they're huge, fluffy & tasty), a breakfast sandwich on a croissant, or one of their skillet omelets. read more

Apparently they have new cook. Does not cook very well. Ordered scrambled eggs well done. They were almost raw. We had to get their one server who is like Nurse Ratchett. A smile would crack her face. Food not prepared as good as it was with other cook. Food was simply not as good as it usually has been read more
