Great service. My server was attentive and made sure my coffee cup was not empty. I got the stuffed banana pancake with pineapple and maple syrup and it definitely hit the spot for my pamcake craving. Large serving sizes as well. The restaurant has a diner feel, which I also appreciated. read more

The food is very good, but the staff do not seem to know how to manage people waiting or they are very understaffed. There were a lot of tables open but it still took 40 minutes to be seated. While we were seated we watched people lines up by the entrance waiting. The coffee and water was offered quickly, but we had to ask the waitress to come take our order. The ambience is very nice. Lots of local art for sale, the tables and seating is well spaced and if the waiting had been more organized this would be a solid 5. read more

Pancake Haus is a locally owned place that's on par with IHOP with a unique menu that has far less items and mediocre service. I couldn't recommend it. Also, they no longer sell German pancakes or the Dutch baby, which is why we came in here. Came in with my husband and the first thing we see is this wall full of kitsch art with price tags. We wait 20 minutes to be seated and after going around the wall that separates the line from the dining area see that the place is half empty. What was the point of waiting? Saw that they kept others waiting as well while we dined when there were available tables, even little old ladies with canes. Not cool. The menu is confusing - some items are a high price like pancakes that don't come with anything else. Ended up ordering grated potato pancakes, omelette, bran muffin and French toast. My omelette didn't taste very good, just plain and some of the ingredients were thrown on top instead of cooked inside. The potato pancakes were just strange. I was expecting latkes but instead they made regular pancakes then threw in grated potato, chives, and parsley. I asked for sour cream, again, thinking I was getting latkes. I used the sour cream and it didn't help. Got OJ and it wasn't refilled. Pricey for the small serving of a large glass. The waiter we had didn't check on us once and we had to flag him down for the check. Thought it odd that most of the staff were wearing Seahawks gear while the rest were dressed in grey/black. You pay at the cash register. The cashier was really slow. Took almost ten minutes to pay for the check with just one couple ahead of us. I wanted to apologize for them to the two elderly women who had been waiting to be seated longer than we were in line to pay without anyone working them saying hi or telling them they'd be with them in a minute. They were still waiting when we left. Booths are falling apart. Carpet looks older than me. Place needs a good cleaning at a minimum. Think next time we want cheap breakfast, it's IHOP.

Pancake Haus - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

I don't know what all the hype is about this place. The food was just okay. Like a breakfast at Denny's only Denny's probably makes a better tasting omelet. The pancakes were super flat and nothing to write home about. The omelet was big but tasteless. Kind of a let down after all the good reviews. The coffee was good. read more

Pancake Haus - Pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream. Veggie omelet and pancakes. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

The food is amazing, but the service is so poor. Every time we dine in, we love the food but cannot stand the disinterested staff and complete lack of personality. It's as if the staff knows the food will carry them despite the fact that no one wants to work there. The last time (and I mean last time), we tried to get take out on Labor Day. Despite the restaurant being half empty, the hostess told us they weren't doing take out due to the holiday. After she delivered the proclamation, she walked away without another word. Again, amazing food, but it's not worth braving the zombie hoard that staffs the place. read more

55 years and still going strong! This was my parents favorite breakfast spot in Edmonds. I haven't been here in a few years so decide to stop in for a quick bite. The Swedish pancakes are just as good as i remember and my poached eggs with pancakes were delicious as well. Love this place! read more

Great service. Great breakfast food. Love their omelets. Great home town establishment. Wife wasn't fond of the hashbrowns.

The typical traditional breakfast place near our town. Their pancake is a topnotch! The price was fair. Wait can be longer on the weekends. read more

Wort place we have been almost ever! Started with rude staff including Owner/ Manager. The atmosphere was dark and not Happy. We Observed her rudeness to fellow customers. Our waitress was un attentive, rolling eyes and complained when we corrected our orders she incorrectly brought. Next we discovered ROTTEN grapes in both fruit cups. My wife pointed out the fact to the owner and she asked my wife if "she wanted it for free.." At this point we decided to leave. When I i spoke to the Owner she defended herself with " we buy our fruit fresh daly" and when i explained again the the fruit was Rotten she would not accept that we found it in their food not knowing bout the interactive with my wife. I tried to pay for what we ate we drank but she just huffed and said no charge. If a business serves you food that is rotten with mold on it. Im not sticking around to find out if their quality control improves. I offered to pay for what we ate to that point. We went down the street and had a great meal at the Mexican place on the corner for $100. Great quality food and service. Its not about the $$ its about service and Pancake Haus is a Dump.. Stay clear and eat at ur own risk! ! read more

My son and I came in for breakfast. Even though there was plenty of available seating and tables, we still waited about 20 minutes to sit down because the hostess who was supposed to sit us down was attending to the line of paying customers with priority over us, and it didn't matter that we were there first. She made sure that every person who was paying were attended to first. No one else in the team was bothering to pay any attention to the line of people waiting to sit down. Service was absolutely terrible. It took another 20 minutes for our server to take our order, and after 40 minutes waiting, we never got our food. We also noticed that some customers who sat after us were already getting their food. My son and I walked out and went to the nearby Denny's. Without our food. I realize that it can get really busy sometimes. We just need some kind of acknowledgement or explanation that I've had to wait a long time to get seated, take our order, and get our food. A long wait in each part of this nightmare dining process. To make matters worse, customers who sat much later after us were already getting their orders. I'll probably never go back to this Pancake Haus ever again. read more

Great food, wonderful service. Nice inside, and filled with great memories with my family.

My go to breakfast spot in Edmonds spot on food at good prices . A better then average cup of coffee and let's talk about the hash browns CRISPY and delicious . Good service and won't break the bank. We eat early and they open at 6 AM , it can get busy around 9 ish read more

Tasty, basic breakfast food. Pancakes of several types, eggs your way, bacon & sausage, toast, biscuits etc.! Good coffee! Regarding the "bad service" review" from Gus. We normally come in on weekday mornings and the service is great with no wait to be seated. He came in on Boxing Day, Dec. 26th and I'm so sure it was crazy busy that I waited until the 27th, and found a minimum wait and good service. Weekdays usually have fewer staff as this is a family business and they work at the restaurant when it is most busy on weekends and at regular jobs during the week. Plus it's always been a first come, first served place. So is Denny's! If 10 people are seated before you at either place they will be served first! read more

I love this restaurant. It is a local watering hole. The owners are fantastic entrepreneurs, the staff are great, and the food is always well prepared. Everything tastes good, And the portion sizes are phenomenal. It's the kind of warm, friendly place that any local wants to go get a great breakfast at. A true iconic Edmonds establishment. I personally recommend for anyone who's going to go there, to ask for the banana walnut pancakes. They are not on the menu, but I have them custom-made every time I go, and they are amazing. The bacon is also fantastic here. Super thick, flavorful, and prepared beautifully. Not too greasy, and not burnt. Just right. But one of my favorite memories of this restaurant has to do with the owners and their merchandise: I have attached photos below of the hat that one of the owners had made for his restaurant, and as you can see, the quality and craftsmanship of the hat is really high. I work in the music business, and actually co-run a growing music festival (Monterey Cowboy Festival). As such, I can tell good merchandise when I see it. There's a lot of really crappy merchandise out there, but when I saw the Pancake Haus' hat available, I immediately bought it because I could tell the embroidery and fit were super high quality. I have a big head and wear a fitted size 8 new era. As such, this flex fit mesh hat is super high quality, breathable, and comfortable. It hasn't lost it's shape, it has not been stretched out too much, and the embroidery is really high quality. I wore it when I was flying down to LA to do business with some fellow music industry executives and artists. People on the airplane and in LA commented on how nice the hat looked. That tells you how good it is. Kudos to the owners for picking good merch for their breakfast restaurant, and for being in business for over 50 years!!!! Keep fighting on! Edmonds residents (like me): Go dine in, take out, and support them during this ridiculous time! They need our love and continued support read more

No fuss no muss...as the saying goes. If you like simple, almost homestyle food then this is the place. The wait staff is pretty efficient. I had the "lucky7 + 2" with 2 slices of French toast and hubby bubby had Italian sausage omelet with biscuits n' gravy. My choice was simple and good. My hubby's choice of the omelet was also simple and good. However, I had a small bite of the biscuit n' gravy and enjoyed it very much. The gravy was a bit too peppery for me otherwise the biscuit was really good. Would I come back, maybe to try their waffles, crepes or pancakes...such a nice neighborhood goto diner. Really relaxing and we didn't feel rushed out as soon as we were done with our breakfast. read more

Pancake Haus - Paintings for sale posted along the waiting line.... - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

If you're coming here for pancakes, prepare to be disappointed. If you're wanting to be seated without waiting for insanely poor organization, you'll be even more disappointed. Here's the policy, first come first serve, doesn't matter the party size. Are there 10 people in the party ahead of you and yours is only two? Well you're waiting for them to find a table before they'll seat you. Even if there's 4 open tables for 2. What if it takes half an hour to find seating for those 10? Too bad. Are you old? Disabled? Stand against the wall and wait your turn It's obvious this place suffers from a bad case of "well that's the way we've always done it" Everything else is standard breakfast cafe, nothing to write home about. read more

Was here a few weeks ago, we were looking for somewhere we hadn't been to before. I thought it was just your basic breakfast. My husband liked it. He said he enjoyed the atmosphere. Looked as though there were quite a few regulars that come here. Not sure if we'll come here again, this is "out of the way" for us, so we may come again if we were in the area. read more

Food- Bad Service -Bad First and last time. Don't waste your time, money and your meal on this place. I got the French toast and hubby got the Denver omelet. We also got a pecan pancake to try. The French toast and the pancake were meh and just flavorless. My husband's omelet was not tasty either and my husband almost never complains about his food. I also ordered two eggs over medium and one was good and the other had popped and was fully hard. This just shows that no one cared enough to look at the food before it got to the table. It wasn't just internally hard, it was visibly hard and was the first thing I noticed when the server, absentmindedly, put it on the table. read more

There's a lady with short gray hair and glasses has a TERRIBLE attitude. We understood that the place was full with short staff but it is NOT a reason to yell at the customers with mad face and very bad attitude "You will need to wait because we are short staff!" And we didn't even ask anything. She just say it suddenly. And when we left we paid our coffee (because we didn't even got our orange juices) she told us "omg what's wrong with people?" When we just said that we had to go because literally we were waiting forever. read more

Best early breakfast joint in Edmonds! This is where all the locals go for quality food and excellent service.

The Pancake Haus has been, over the years, a place to go for a generous breakfast for a reasonable price. Recently my wife and I felt like a nice breakfast out, so headed down for sausage and eggs. Instead of the generous breakfast we were anticipating, we were served one tiny sausage patty with our eggs, a small portion of hash browns...compared to previous servings here.....and no toast or biscuit at all. We realize that costs have risen, but come on! Bread and potatoes? They are still very inexpensive. Bill: almost $30 with coffee. Pancake Haus not our breakfast place any longer. read more

Three of us went to the pancake haus. It was busy but that is the norm there. It did take over 25 minutes to get our breakfast. Drink refills were slow too because if the business. The food was ok, not much better then standard breakfast places with smaller portions and less options on the menu. read more

This is our second weekend in a row at Pancake Haus, even though it takes us a half hour to get there. I have been wanting to go since I saw it a few years back and was reminded of Der Waffle Haus on Dead Like Me. I have no idea if Der Waffle Haus was any good, but this place rocks! SO here's my run down: -it will take longer on weekends, especially when people are getting out of church (and heathens like me are waking up) -the staff is not there to hold your hand and make you feel special. Coffee, pancakes, next (repeat). However, in a place like this, it's just fine and you have to admire the work ethic when it is packed. -the potato pancakes are dry, not greasy like latkes. So, if you want greasy, like me, they are not for you. They're ok, just not amazing. - the blueberry pancakes are great and have lovely little blueberries that you get in every bite. -the sourdough pancakes are beyond craveable. I got them to put some blueberries in the batter (like a blueberry-sourdough hybrid) and they were beyond amazing. They have every kind of pancake you could ever want, so throw on your sweats and sneakers and get out of bed before noon for once - it's worth it! read more

The food was okay. It wasn't amazing but it wasn't horrible. ...maybe because I was just really hungry at the time... I thought they could have made the food better. The pancakes were pretty much dry and bland. They do ask you how you like your food cooked, which was considerate. But it didn't really compensate for how much of taste and flavor the breakfast plates lacked. However, biscuits and gravy were nice. The service was good, really friendly and nice people. They also refill on coffee. Located pretty deep in Edmonds. It seemed sort of vast when we got there. Not a lot of people, but a lot of old folk early birds. read more

There are a few dishes that are good... but for the most part, just simple, on-par food. Nothing great, nothing bad... it's just A-Ok. Their "sausage" gravy is good (you can't see the sausage), but no where near Texas good. One thing of note... heir special German fluff pancake... not that great, but I'm also not a fan of lemon. I do, however, want to send some props out to them for finding my credit card and holding it for almost a week (without unauthorized charges). Rock on. read more

I should've trusted the ratings on here, averaging 3.5 stars with 115 reviews should've been enough for anyone to expect a mediocre experience but I reassured my party we should give it a try. the good: The place was busy for a typical Saturday. Location was easy to find, to access, they share a parking lot with ACE Hardware in Edmonds. Prices were reasonable. the bad: Server took ages to get to our table. They ran out of one of the main ingredient which strictly limited my choice to order. then it got worse: We sat down at 11:45 AM and placed the order around 12:00 PM but didn't get our food until 12:45 PM. Eggs looked like it was from McDonalds. Potato pancakes well, basically were pancake mix with hash browns. Mixture of harden hash brown with fluffy pancake, weird texture combo. Eggs Benedict looked and tasted like it was picked up at your neighborhood McDonald drive-thru, nothing fancy and does its job only with a higher price tag and even longer wait. If you've had your share of Pancake Haus and enjoyed your experience, that's fantastic. I on the other hand learned a valuable lesson of sticking with guts of so many Yelpers, I mean it's the whole reason why we leave reviews, no? read more

I can't say I recommend it. I ordered a ham waffle that turned out like a $10 eggo waffle with minced ham sparsely sprinkled on top.

Also, there's nothing German about this haus. read more
