The Original Pancake house! I have so many positive things to say but first and foremost this is one place you don't want to pass up. Its value, fresh and delicious. I brought two guests with me and we were sat in roughly 10minutes around 11:00 it was not too busy on a week day. Service is really great our server was so helpful helping us out with specials and describing specific pancakes. She was incredibly sweet (like southern mama sweet). Definitely would go back. The food has amazing flavor you can tell it has heart. They don't hold back on ingredients. We got a pecan waffle. Let me tell you that thing had pecans! And the hash-browns with butter, oh boy they went ham on it. It was so buttery and flavorful. We also got eggs with bacon. The bacon was THICK in the best way possible. How bacon should be and it was very filling we had to share everything to finish all the food. The corned beef hash was crispy and hefty. I would recommend trying a bit of everything. Ambiance is nice and welcoming it does get busy so getting there early or checking wait times is a good idea. Prices are really reasonable and for what you get is worth it. Our bill was $60 for 3 people. (Eggs bacon, 2 hash browns, pecan waffle, and corned beef hash, coffee). read more

This was my first time coming to have breakfast here. My kids have been here before and told me it was very good and they were right! It's very busy but service is quick and friendly. It looks like a house more than a restaurant and ambience is very family friendly. The coffee was hot and very tasty and the food came out quick and hot! I ordered the chicken fried steak and let me tell you I've had plenty at many restaurants and this is probably one of if not the best! The gravy is flavorful and delicious! My over medium eggs were cooked perfectly and the hash browns were bomb. They bring your warm syrup and the pancakes were very delicious as well. My son got an omelette and it was huge and very good! I will definitely be back. read more

Omg what can I say the hype is real. Been here a few times and usually get the same thing plus 1 new thing everytime.everything.. always going with my sister and my niece. We always get country fried steak with eggs change the pancakes for hashbrowns.. and I mean ALWAYS the hashbrown here extra crispy is out of this world. Country fried steak has like a bacon gravy type deal? It's a little salty if ur a bland eater but it's super good. side order of the bacon is a MUST I'm a unique person where I don't really care for bacon or thought it's just not that great maybe too salty... but here it's AMAAAAZING. I can only say that because this is the only place I want bacon. Now that's my usual standard order from here I've gotten a few different pancakes and they are also decent to good depending on what kind you like but the dutch.. was chefs kiss I got it kus I stared at another table and had to ask for that. Eggs Benedict is also really good. Has a really good balanced flavors all around. And all the above is for food.. the service I haven't even gotten too. Been here about 6 times in about 4 months..every server I've gotten is soo so friendly. I've gotten a same male server twice dude is super dope and helpful.. the rest were ladies and they were also quick friendly and so nice. Even the person taking down waitlist for customers outside are so friendly showing where extra waiting seats are etc. Overall everytime I leave OHOP I leave with a full belly and a great mood thank you!!!! read more

Original Pancake House - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Anaheim, California

If you're in Orange County, it's almost a rite of passage to at some point make your way to the Original Pancake House! This staple has been here for ages and you can tell from how much the community loves this place with lines out the door and wait times that can span for over an hour! The food itself is SOLID with their German pancake being one of the top selling items that catches everyone's eyes with its Crepe-like texture and delicious flavor once you add the lemon and powdered sugar. I also enjoy their protein options like their chicken fried steak and thick cut bacon! The staff are always super friendly and you can feel the history when you walk inside with its cozy vibe. If you're willing to endure the long wait; give this place a try! read more

This is an iconic breakfast place. They are always busy, even on weekdays so prepare accordingly. The staff is very welcoming and efficient. The menu is extensive so expect some tough choices. We got dutch baby, swedish pancakes, and a side of bacon. Dutch Baby- It's light and custardy with just the right amount of sweetness. Served powdered sugar and lemon that adds a touch of brightness to every bite. Swedish Pancakes- They are thin and lacelike, almost like crepes. Served with a generous amount of lingonberry jam that is fruity and delightful. Bacon- Crisp and meaty. It added a savory touch to the meal. Great experience overall! read more

We were up really early randomly and got hungry. Showed up at 6:30 on a Sunday and there were already people inside! It has a cozy and homey diner feel to it. We ordered the Spanish omelette and a country fried steak. For $2 extra we upgraded one stack of pancakes to the banana pancakes and it was soo good!! That was definitely my fave thing here! read more

Original Pancake House - Spanish omelette, country fried steak, banana pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Anaheim, California

Okay, this isn't the "original" Original Pancake House -- but it's close. This has been there since 1958 and when you walk inside, you can smell the decades of pancakes and syrup that have been enjoyed inside these walls. I love pancakes (I mean, who doesn't?) and they are consistently light and fluffy. My favorites are the sourdough (made with a just-right starter) to offset the richness of the butter and sweetness of the syrup and the blueberry -- their traditional buttermilk pancake loaded with berries inside the pancake and more blueberry compote for the top. I generally get the bacon and eggs (some of the best bacon you'll find in a breakfast place) and then upgrade my pancakes to one of the many flavors. What else is great? There is also a German pancake that's huge, thin, and puffy topped with powdered sugar that I'd recommend. The hash browns are almost a thick potato rosti, turned out from a small cast iron pan. Iced tea and coffee are fresh-brewed and you can get free refills on coffee, tea, and hot chocolate! Who refills hot chocolate? Service is fast, efficient, and spot-on. You rarely have to request something -- they see what you need and bring it before you even think of it. Pros. The crowd is a mix of locals, Disney visitors, families, and breakfast enthusiasts. It's not the kind of place you get a cup of coffee and linger for a couple of hours. It's a place to come, eat delicious food, and move on with your day. There is the possibility of a line anytime, so use the Yelp waitlist feature and save yourself some time standing around waiting for your table. But even if you have to, it's worth it. read more

Be prepared to wait for about 15 minutes for a table, inside or out. Very crowded and noisy but service pretty good. I wasn't real hungry, so my husband ordered ham steak, eggs over easy and pancakes. He said the ham steak was good. I ate two of his pancakes, pretty good. We also got war syrup which is a plus. I had coffee also pretty good and a side of bacon. The bacon is great and thick, I ate 2 of the 3. This was the least expensive breakfast we've ad in a long time. Our server was Maria M, but everyone pitched in, including the cashier. Negative, food did not come out at the same time. Pancakes, then ham/eggs then finally the bacon. Prices were very good, coffee $3.99 with plenty of refills. read more

What We Ordered: Corned Beef Hash ($10.25), Side of Bacon ($7.75), Bacon and Eggs ($17.25), Sausage Links ($7.75), Country Fried Steak is & Eggs ($18.75), German Pancake ($19.50), Apple Pancake ($19.50), Coffee ($3.99). For the Country Fried Steak ($18.75), I substituted the pancakes with hashbrowns for $2.00, which is a good deal because you get a healthy portion. The steak itself was not bad, but not great either. I felt the gravy was a bit too salty, even for Country Fried Steak. I'm a big fan, but I would skip it here in the future. The Corn Beef Hash is a bit pricey at $10.25 and was nothing special. It tasted like it came out of a can. I could get something similar at Ralph's. The Bacon ($7.75) was okay, nothing special, but my son and father-in-law liked it. I've had better and wouldn't recommend it here. The Sausage Links ($7.75) came with a small portion for the price, and they were a little burnt. I wouldn't order them here. Our server, Ray, was very attentive and hardworking. He constantly refilled our coffee ($3.99) without being asked. He also gave great suggestions. He mentioned the Apple Pancake ($19.50) is like a giant cinnamon roll, and it was very sweet, which my family didn't enjoy. I thought it was a bit too sweet as well. The German Pancake ($19.50) reminded me of an open-faced popover with a soft, eggy texture. You can customize the taste with lemon slices and sugar. This was the favorite dish at our table, and we would order it again. I've had The Original Pancake House bookmarked for a while and I'm glad I finally made it. It wouldn't be our go-to spot, but we might come back once a year. Overall, I wouldn't rush to return. Some dishes were better than others, but it didn't live up to the hype, in my opinion. read more

Good breakfast place in Anaheim. My wife and kids love American breakfast and this was the rare occassion I felt like having breakfast. We came around 8 in the morning and it was already pretty crowded, there is a parking lot on back you will have to turn into a small entrance from the street to get to. I love the vintage graphics on the cups, unchanged artwork since 1953! Outside is a strangely updated and modern street sign and I wish they had kept the old logo. Corned Beef Hash: 5 stars, it was covered in crunchy charred bits that I rarely see and it tasted amazing, gave the already delicious corned beef a crunchy, bacon like quality and reminded me of a a smash burger. A must order if you like corned beef. Hashbrowns: Calling these out because they come as a neat circle on a circular plate and its the only breakfast place I've been to that serves it like this. Pancakes and waffles: These tasted OK, but they came hot and the butter melted easily on them. read more

This place is amazing! They have the best staff and of course it starts with their fantastic leader, Berut, she is the most adorable, caring manager that I have encountered! She has an amazing staff with Jacob,Jesus, Janelle, Marisol, Martha, Ray that's just to name few! These guys always take care of me and my family! The food could be sub-par and because of the staff, I would still come back but the food is amazing as well! The Chefs all work in unison to prepare an amazing meal for each and every person dining! The Country Fried Steak is delicious but the Ground Beef Skillet is great! They have amazing Hash Browns! There are soo many great items to choose from, let's not forget the unforgettable pancakes, that come in so many flavors, yum This place is packed daily but they move people in and out with their quick service and don't have a birthday, the whole entire place will join in to celebrate your special day!! So if you want a spot to celebrate or just enjoy family and friends, The Original in Anaheim is your place! read more

Always great fresh food, quick service. The best breakfast spot in OC! There's a reason it's so popular and busy. I always get chocolate chip pancakes because they're SO GOOD. My boyfriend ordered the chorizo omelette, had a bite and it was perfect. Parking lot is very small and always busy. read more

The service was exceptional! Our waiter was attentive and warm and we received everything we ordered in a timely manner. We tried the 49er pancakes and I loved how thin and springy they are. You don't feel as stuffed eating them. My partner said these were the best pancakes he's ever had at a restaurant which is saying a lot because he always orders pancakes for breakfast! We shared the western omelet which had a good portion of all the ingredients inside of onion, bell pepper and ham - they really loaded it up! The egg wasn't overdone in anyway and was fluffy throughout. The hashbrowns were your classic but I think they could've been a bit crispier. This place is a staple and always good when you're craving pancakes! read more

Absolutely, fantastic experience. The food is always amazing. And the staff there really care!!

We came on a sunny Monday morning and opted to sit outside. The patio is small, but quieter than inside since there are only 6 tables. I read on the menu that The Original Pancake House strives for courteous but not obtrusive service and I cannot think of a better way to describe the service we received. Our server was knowledgeable about the food and how it was made to highlight the taste profiles. As a gluten free individual, pancake options are usually limited so it was nice to learn that they had many gluten free options. The gluten free banana pancakes were excellent. They were sweet so a piece of bacon helped balance it. We also ordered the 49ers and blueberry pancakes. Everything was fantastic! It is clear that they take pride in the food they serve and the service they provide. read more

I've been here once before years ago and remember that it was very good. I had the opportunity to visit again this Thanksgiving weekend, Black Friday to be exact, and the place was jumpin'. They were packed, the parking lot was full, but fortunately we were able to get the handicap spaces right in the front. They do have handicap access with a built in wheelchair lift right outside the entrance next to the stairs. I really appreciated the help from the kind and helpful staff in getting me and my walker safely up and down. We were a party of 6, and were seated in less than 5 min on Black Friday. Our waiter was Jose (I hope I remembered correctly). Oh my goodness, this man was amazing. He did flips and jumped through hurdles to make our dining experience a very enjoyable time. This man deserves a raise! He worked tirelessly helping all of his customers. My order was the Fresh Vegetarian Omelette and since I don't eat tomatoes, I requested to substitute for spinach and they did with no issue. My second substitution was a specialty waffle instead of pancakes and that was also done without any issue. I love to go to restaurants that don't mind accommodating their guests according to different tastes or dietary requests. The Fresh Vegetarian Omelette was phenomenal. I love how everything is round. The omelettes are round like a stuffed egg soufflé or quiche. Inside was broccoli, spinach, and mushrooms. Topped with Jack cheese. The round hashbrowns, I believe, are sent down from heaven because they are buttery and crispy and all the things you would dream them to be. Our entire table shared one order of hashbrowns, but I'm telling you now...get your own for yourself. You're not going to want to share after you taste them. The Apple Waffle was also delicious. I didn't care for the warm apple syrup that is made in house, but I did like it with the maple syrup. The Granny Smith apples that were supposedly inside the waffle weren't very noticeable or seen, but I could taste the essence of apple. Otherwise, I like that they use the thin waffle makers instead of the thick, Belgian style makers. I prefer the thinner waffle, which I feel makes a crisper outer coating. If you're ever in town for a trip to Disneyland or a concert or show, make sure you stop by the Original Pancake House before you return home. Weekends are busiest, so try to go during the week when it's not as busy. read more

I love this restaurant but it was my first time at this location. I don't arrive at restaurants within 30-45 min of closing as a rule. However, I had literally planned a doctor's apt (an hr away) to eat here! It ran late. I arrived at 1:45. The staff were 100% welcoming and wonderful! Found out it's the second location to Portland.

Decent breakfast spot but wouldn't go out of my way for it. Came here because we didn't know what to eat and breakfast food sounded good. Love that you can join the waitlist from mobile so we didn't have to wait too long on a Saturday morning. Everyone raved about the Dutch baby pancake and I love Dutch baby pancakes so I had to try. Slightly disappointed cause it was pretty soggy :(. The highlight to our meal honestly was their bacon. If I could just leave a review for their bacon, 10/10 but i know it doesnt work that way :p. Service is pretty quick and they have outdoor seating. Glad I tried but prob wouldn't come back since there's more options in the area. read more

I came here wanting to have some Swedish pancakes. However, when I was told that their Swedish pancake is one large, flat pancake, very crepe-like, I changed my mind. I ended up opting for a Chorizo Omelette. The Omelette was served in a shape more akin to a round, flat loaf of bread. The eggs were very fluffy, perhaps a little too fluffy. I don't find chorizo to have a very overpowering taste, so the mild chorizo taste was perfectly acceptable to me. The table service was very friendly. Orders were very quickly prepared by the kitchen. Parking can be a problem. At busy hours, which means most of the time when they're open, the parking lot in the back can become full. With road construction on Lincoln limiting traffic flow, finding a parking spot can take longer. read more

Original Pancake House - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Anaheim, California

The Original Pancake House was founded in Portland, Oregon in 1953. This Anaheim location is one of the earliest franchised restaurants (opened in 1958) and is currently owned by Adam Voll who's the Godson of previous 1st owner Raymond Birkland and wife Anita. Adam's dad Ron Voll went from dishwasher to cook to owner at the Original Pancake House in 1986 which in turn turned the ownership to Adam in 2006. The location in Portland received a James Beard Foundation Award as an American Classic in 1999. [Parking]: Easy & free private parking lot with an overflow parking lot available right next to the restaurant (at the school). [Checking-in]: Visitors can join the Yelp Waitlist ahead of time and an employee at the entrance will check visitors in. Just walk directly inside of the restaurant once visitors receive "your table is ready" text. I came here at 8:45 AM and waited less than 5 minutes before receiving a notification text. [Atmosphere & service]: The restaurant was packed on Saturday morning and it had the old school diner vibe. My waitress was friendly and constantly refilled my coffee. [Menu]: Their specialties are German Pancake, Dutch Baby (miniature German Pancake), and Apple Pancake. I love how they label calories for each item and clearly label "free refills" for soda, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. *** Dutch Baby (Miniature German pancake served with lemon wedges and powdered sugar - 740 cals, $16.95): Absolutely amazing pancake as pancake itself had a hint of sweetness already. However when I squeezed some sliced lemon pieces and added right amount of sugar powdered sugar then the combination of sweet & sour taste brought out the max flavor profile for this pancake. *** Two big thumbs up on this classic & fantastic long-standing breakfast spot - simply 10x better than Norms. Come before 9 AM on weekdays to avoid 15+ minute wait. read more

It's still just as good as we remember. The Swedish pancakes (3 pcs) came with lingonberry and we also ordered a side of bacon and eggs! Everything was perfect!

What can I say about this classic breakfast spot. I've gone here now for years and it is my go to breakfast spot for homey breakfast food. The dutch baby is a must, unless youre not into the liquid eggy flavor then it might be a skip for you. It's truly not overbearing or anything but I know some haaate that flavor. The cornbeef hash OOO DAAAMN I CAN EAT ME UP SOME CORN BEEF HASH. Loove the texture of it, and it has a good subtle crisp. Not pictured is a chocolate chip pancake and goddaamn those are as good as eggo choc chip waffles that you microwave. My standard might be low, but we all know we can devour those waffles. Their pancakes hold that same feeling. Our server was amazing, I may have forgotten his name but the sass, the jokes, and the good ole laughter from him brought out constant laughter from the tables he served. My water was always full and if you know me....I DRIIIINK my water! If youre ever feeling like eating a good breakfast spot with no bs. That homey feeling with the wooden pillars, it doesnt seem like youre eating at a diner. Youre eating in a home. read more

My favorite breakfast place on earth! Anytime I come down to SoCal, I make a point to come here with my family. I love the chocolate chip pancakes with a side of link sausage. The ham & cheese omelette is also off the hook. They have a small parking lot in the back of the restaurant. I recommend coming here early in the morning, as it's packed later on and especially on the weekends. I'm a little confused by the setup of the restaurant, as the front entrance has now changed three times. This time, the front entrance was moved to the side where you enter the parking lot. It has no overhang cover, so people were trying to cram into the tiny waiting space with only three chairs. I was a bit put off by the host and hostess, as they were getting irritated that all these people were crowding in from the rain and not being very accommodating, which is why I deducted a star. read more

There was 4 of us who met at the Original Pancake House for a breakfast meeting on a weekday morning. They had their private parking lot and the business was really busy for a weekday. Signs of a thriving business. We were seating at a table, and Janette provided the most stellar service the entire time we were there. Janette is AMAZING! At our table, the others got a Mushroom Omelette ($18.95), Chorizo Omelette ($19.45), and 2 Bacon & Eggs Special ($16.65/each). They live up to their pancake name here cause these orders all came with a stack of three pancakes, whipped butter, and syrup. One individual swapped the pancakes for hashbrowns and later regretted it. Good to know! 2 of us also had their Coffee. Janette asked what creamer we liked, and they had the French Vanilla. She made sure all of our waters and coffees were consistently filled. Incredible! My coworker complimented the chorizo and Janette mentioned how the owner personally cooked up and tasted a bunch of options moving forward with the chorizo they use. As for my 2 eggs and bacon. My sunny side up was perfect. The egg whites were cooked through without the yolk being compromised. Perfect execution. And there was a generous amount of thick bacon slabs. What a luxury!! The pancakes were also incredible. So soft and fluffy. I don't normally order pancakes at most places, but I really dig these pancakes. Such a great spot for breakfast. Service was flawless. The food was delicious. You can see how thoughtful this business is operated. read more
