Good cafe style breakfast and lunch spot. A local institution. 2nd generation family owned. Many waitresses have been there for decades. It's so busy I don't wonder why. Great tips. read more

Driving through town looking for breakfast on the way home from the coast and found this little spot. There weren't too many options in this town but so glad we stopped here. Service was amazing! Waitress was great and food was super speedy and tasty. Highly recommend! read more

Unfortunately we weren't actually able to stay to eat because this business does not care about the health and safety of their workers or their clientel. In the middle of a global pandemic there is no mask requirement for the patrons or their staff. We were not willing to risk it in a town that doesn't believe in vaccines. Bummer becaus we were so hungry and so excited to try the food based on the reviews. read more

The pancake house is a Longview classic it is the best breakfast place in town so may pancakes to choose from.

We enjoyed it. The restaurant needs a remodel. But food made up for the old building. And the staff was very nice and helpful and friendly and they were very accommodating. read more

We came for a late breakfast and were seated immediately. Friendly service and a menu with lots of options. We had a very good breakfast and would go there again. The decor was very dated as it is loaded with old memorabilia which for some is charming, but for me it is chaotic. read more

Awesome as always! The best breakfast in a 500 mile radius (pretty sure), and since we live right up the street, sweet! They open at 5:30 am every day, and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu, breakfast anyway, never had lunch here, but one of these days I'm gonna to try! read more

Amazing pancakes, really great service! Pancakes are thin and very tasty. Bacon cooked perfectly. Big servings for the price. Everyone is smiling and happy, and they know the regulars by name. I would definitely go back when passing through again read more

Not enough parking or seating anymore. Too many Pancake House enjoyers. Food is great.

Food has always been excellent and the service is beyond great!! It's a friendly place where your sure to see someone you know! And the owner is an amazing lady read more

I love the pancake house! They are so sweet, they know me by my first name, and fix up the best breakfast I've ever had! I hope they open up soon so I can go back and get delicious breakfast! read more

One of the best breakfasts in town! Great pancakes and come hungry when your stopping by.

Meh. For all the hype, the LONG wait, and so on... it was just ok. Corned beef hash was wet and kinda slimy inside. (And for those of us who are all about texture... this wasn't so great.) The Denver omelette was VERY wet inside. The seafood omelette was really fish smelling. Being this close to fresh seafood-- that was disappointing. The kids' pancakes were PEEFECTLY done. Tasty too! The service was excellent. Truly good! So.... if this is the best in town, stuck to the pancakes. Since it's the pancake house, it's probably neat to stick with their specialty and veer off course. Again... EXCELLENT service! read more

this is a solid neighborhood diner in Longview (if you can consider Tenant Way/ Oregon Way a neighborhood). i spotted this restaurant about a year ago peeking out between some buildings from Tenant, but Yelp's directions kept sending me to the now closed Frack Burger. this restaurant is busy. the front parking spots are always full but there's more parking behind the building. there is a good sized counter as well as tables and booths. the waitresses (yes, all female staff) are very friendly and quick to take the order. the clientele seems to be mostly local regulars with the occasional traveler like me stopping in. focus is on breakfast food but there is a decent selection on the lunch menu. today's lunch special on the chalkboard was grilled cheese sandwich with bean soup. i ordered the chicken fried steak and eggs. it had a nice crispy crust served hot off out of the deep fryer. the hash browns were fresh and hot as were the eggs. it was a satisfying meal with friednly conversation with my counter mates and the ladies behind the counter. a definite stop in the future. read more

Definitely best service eating out! Big breakfast and excellent prices. Fresh hot coffee. The French toast sticks were delicious and all the food came hot. I hate a cold breakfast. If you come on a Sunday be prepared to wait a bit longer if you arrive after church is out. Other than that, I will definitely be back next time I'm in Longview, WA. read more

Great food excellent service fun atmosphere! Great to see and experience old fashion food and service again. Keep it up!!

This place is a great place to go if you are looking for a inexpensive great meal for your family just be prepared to wait for a table since this place is a little small. read more

Excellent service and good food. I had the berry waffle with a side (4 strips!) of bacon. I asked for crispy and it was good. The berries weren't fresh but they were also good and not covered in sugar or syrup. read more

Tight quarters and loud, but food is above average. Didn't appreciate being called "hun" and "darling," nor did my girlfreind. It's no longer 1955, anywhere on this earth. read more

Great place to stop. My wife & I happened upon this place. It definitely a locals favorite. We came in at lunch time but everyone around us were having breakfast. I ordered a ham & cheese omelet & my wife the chicken fried steak. I'd attach a couple pictures of how our food came out. Both were excellent and service was fantastic. We will be back. read more

There is just something great about walking into your hometown breakfast place and feeling like coming home. I haven't been here in almost 5 years since I went to college but nothing has changed. I got the French toast and my dad got the biscuit and gravy. Everything hit the spot and was relatively cheap. Servers are so nice and never stop smiling. read more

Amazing service. Amazing food. Great customers. Don't be afraid to share a table but do be prepared to wait a little if you go on weekends for breakfast as it's very popular-for a reason. Great locally owned spot. read more

The Pancake House is the BEST! Great food, good variety, friendly and helpful staff and obviously GREAT cooks. Only hardship is the parking situation but it's worth figuring it out. read more

Always have amazing food and the service is quick. Food wait times are very low. Thank you for the consistency!

Really fricken good breakfast burrito. Two could share its huge. And flavorful. Quick service for call in and curb side. Great little stop.

It was ok. We got a gift card for this place and decided to check it out... Everything about this place left us a little disappointed. The restaurant was horribly crowded. It had the smallest waiting area I've ever seen! Our server was friendly but the food wasn't anything spectacular. read more

Phenomenal diner. Great service, great coffee, great food :) parking can be a pain but worth a little walk.

This is our family's favorite breakfast restaurant in Longview. Always great service because the waitresses take time to get to know you. If something isn't done right, they make it right. Great food & great memories made here! read more

Nice clean resteraunt. Food is decent. Way to many tables crammed inside. You have to sit way to close to everyone. They keep it freezing cold inside with fans going at 8 a.m. Bring your heavy coat. read more

Oh my goodness what can I say!!! While it is not a fancy place, it is a you are family place. My family has been coming to the pancake house since my son was 4 years old and he is now 20. When you come here you are family! The servers care for you as they do their own. We could call them by name just as the acknowledge us and everyone else by name too. My husband is ciliac, and they have Gluten free pancakes, my son Loves Their corn beef hash, and anything else they have. My favorite is their waffles with bacon in the batter... Oh my goodness soooo good! It is worth every dime and when you have to especially now it is worth every minute you might have to wait. read more

Amazing service! Amazing chicken fried steak! Delicious strawberry roll-ups! Wonderful, creamy hot cocoa. Been her many times and will continue to go here. One of my top favorite breakfast restaurants in the Longview/Kelso area. read more

Nice waitress who served us well. The menu was large and gave us much to choose from. The food was tasty and we would definitely come again. read more

This place is always busy! I am so glad we decided to see if it was worth the wait. It 100% is!! The employees here are clearly happy. They run this place like a well oiled machine. They greet everyone coming through the door with a smile. There has been a wait list both times I have been there. I am impressed how quickly tables are cleared and ready for the next customer. The food is fantastic. We definitely will be dining here often! read more

Best breakfast spot in town ! I love that they have all the classic breakfasts ! Corned beef hash is the best !

Every time I walk in I always feel like a little kid again. The staff were and still are amazing and friendly, they really make you feel like family. My boyfriend had never been and he absolutely loved it. I'll definitely have to call in an order soon read more

A true classic. Been going here since I was a kid as has everyone from around here. Hands down best breakfast restaurant around.

Maybe it's just because this is what I grew up on, but I believe the Pancake House serves the best breakfast anywhere. Period. This is the kind of blue collar joint with a breakfast counter and waitresses that call you "honey." If you're a local, they usually know your name or someone from your family. In the 80's, you could count on it being filled with loggers and mill workers. There are still plenty of folks like that, but the economy of the town has changed, so the crown is more varied. So what about the food? Umm... awesome. Duh. Usually I get eggs benedict or corned-beef hash (the only place I'll eat it). I also like denver omelets and they have some nice lingonberry and strawberry swedish pancakes. My parents usually order the "senior plate," which consists of 1 egg, 1 bacon, toast, and some hashbrowns. My grandpa used to always gets waffles, but this weekend we ordered "The Longshoreman." It's a french toast and bacon. Usually I think NO ONE makes better french toast than I do, but in this case, my ass was seriously handed to me. It had a really nice slightly crisp bite to it and was not too soggy or too dry. The bacon is perfectly crisp without being charred. As far as other stuff goes, it's never greasy or overcooked. Just right. So next time you're driving to the beach or Portland, come get some breakfast. read more

This is a review by a vegetarian It's a plain ol'diner. Waitresses know the regulars by name. There's kitsch on the walls. Food is ordinary. You'll swear you've eaten these exact same hash browns the last time you were in a diner. Don't go out of your way to eat here (like exit I-5), but if you're in town anyway it's a viable option read more

Thank you yelp!! We were looking for a place to eat on our drive to SEATAC, and Yelp steered us to the Pancake House for its great breakfast. When we arrived, the place was absolutely packed with locals (always a good sign). It took us awhile to get a table, but we were ok given the food looked pretty tasty. It took us awhile longer to get our food, but it was every bit of delicious. We had blueberry pancakes, huge slices of bacon, and coffee. Huge Olympic sized proportions, and even though it took awhile, the breakfast was delicious. read more
