This place was perfect for us! We had a large group of 14 and even with a group of that size and a packed restaurant on a Sunday morning the wait was still not too bad. Was very clean and the service was AMAZING! We did have a few different servers helping us and they were all very nice and upbeat. The prices seemed a little high but they made sense when the food came out and we saw how big the portions were (everything comes with its own plate of pancakes). I ordered side items instead and it was the perfect amount instead of a full meal. Would absolutely eat here again! read more

Owner sat us at our table and chatted for a few minutes about the restaurant and when he opened it and the growth of Bend. Great customer service and his good recommendations on the biscuits and gravy and bacon were on point. Definitely would come back if we return to Bend read more

The Original Pancake House - Scrambled eggs and crisp bacon - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

The food was average at best and expensive. My wife's omelette was 1880 calories and not great. She's regretting her decision.

Everybody knows the pancake house it is a location every one has tried. I figured it was my turn. It did not match the hype that everyone says. Our waitress was very pushy and kind of rude to us when questions were asked the presentation n of the food was probably 4/10 it looked like it was just thrown onto the plate. The portions were rather small not that it's a bad thing it really just surprised me for the price. So for two people we paid 30$ for an egg scramble and some small pancakes. They food was good however just seemed completely overrated. I could have gone to IHOP and got the same quality. Needless to say it's a good place to expierence But probably a one stop try for sure. read more

We enjoyed our breakfast on the patio. Very speedy and efficient service. Delightful waitress. Excellent large thick bacon slices. Good blueberry pancakes with lots of berries. Some of the Swedish pancakes were too crispy but the ample lingonberries compensated. read more

Would have received 5 stars except for the price. Service and food were very good juet not worth the steep price for breakfast

The blackberry waffle was AWESOME! Service was very friendly and timely, comfy, homey ambience. Coffee was typical, restaurant bland.

A nice quiet, chill space to eat if you actually want to sit and chat and eat great food. Pancakes through the roof and options to eat them

If you like pancakes and other breakfast offerings this place has to be among the best in Bend. I'm traveling through and would never have found this without Yelp. What a find. I think I'm the only out of towner in here. Definitely a locals spot which is what I want. The blueberry pancakes were a great complement to my egg concoction called the Original Joe. Delicious! Great coffee and service was fantastic. read more

The parking here is a nightmare, the customer service is really bad, and the food is over priced . I have been here multiple times and they have always have issues with customer service. I won't be coming back. read more

we returned to this location, because we really like sourdough pancakes, but today, the floor was dirty, the food arrived cold, and the manager with the staff were talking about arranging a get together while I didn't have any hot water for my tea, and the table next to us sat there, unbussed, for $36.50 I think we can get better service, and attentiveness elsewhere read more

Stopped at Chow first and left because there was a wait and they only had outdoor seating. Came here and was seated in AC quickly, waitress was fantastic, food wasn't expensive, tasted fantastic, and had huge portions. Loved it here, glad we didn't stay at Chow. read more

Beautiful and clean restaurant. Excellent pancakes. Very friendly staff. Also like that they open at 6am. Thanks!

Best Dutch Baby ever!! Will definitely return for this! Love to find them on my travels & wish we had them in Medford, OR

Holy moly the pancakes are delicious!! And the amount of bacon we got was amazing!! Will return.

Food and service were great! Will definitely be back next time we're down that way. My husband got an omelette and loved how fluffy it was.

I like this restaurant because their food is delicious and nice and funny waiters and great customer service!!!

Food Quality: I had coffee, pigs in a blanket and a side of bacon. It was good. Environment: Its clean, but I'm not sure what the these is. The women are dressed like nurses from the 1900's, the booths are from the 1980's and there are plates on the wall reminiscent of grandma's house. Service: The service was great and servers were friendly: Appearance: Clean, food presentation was average. Overall: The environment was my only complaint. If you want good sized portions and a quality meal, check out this restaurant. read more

Like another review said, it doesn't look like much from the outside. The interior is super cute, wood with a lining of decorative plates from basically everywhere. We were there for the pancakes and they did not disappoint. Some of the best I've ever had. I caught myself doing my little happy dance, lol read more

The Original Pancake House - Flap Jack's are great - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Delicious pancakes. My son enjoyed the coconut pancakes with a tropical syrup while I thought the old fashioned sour dough flapjacks were awesome. My plate came as either 4 or 8. I ordered 8 with a big appetite and had to share. read more

The Original Pancake House - Sourdough flap-Jacks in the menu. Thankful that calories were listed. - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

The waitress was kind. We didn't have to wait too long on a Sunday morning. But the food was sad. No seasoning. No flavor. Not worth it. I have tried twice hoping maybe the first time was just an off day but unfortunately they just don't season the food. read more

Found this place nearby to our hotel through yelp! Thank you yelp for coming through on the great recommendations for eatery's around bend. My party and I walked in around 1030am and the place was pretty full, but we were lucky to get a seated within 5 minutes. I ordered a waffle plus a fruit crepe and it was one of the best fruit crepes I've ever eaten. The waffle was super tasty and I kept telling my wife how the batter is a little more tastier than most waffles I've eaten back in California. My wife had the omelette and she kept raving about the sauce on top of the omelette. We had a really good breakfast here which helped start our day right. Since we had just arrived from a 7 hr road trip from California, this breakfast helped set our mood for the rest of the day! read more

The Original Pancake House - Fruit crepe, plain waffle, pancakes and a Monterey omelette - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

My fav place for pancakes.. Yes.. I know it's a chain restaurant but trust me it's delish.. I go for the buttermilk pancakes with a side order of crispy bacon.. They have a big fluffy crispy thin pancake called a dutch baby it has a hint of citrus TRY ONE!!!! Hubby had an omelette its not your basic omlette...when it comes out it's huge and puffy and delicious...they also have another location out by the airport .. Enjoy! read more

My favorite spot for breakfast in Central Oregon. No frills, clean, efficient service with really good food. Love their Marion berry syrup and delicious pancakes! Eggs are always perfect, and patty sausage is very good. read more

Because of a couple pictures I saw of the omelettes on here and the prices weren't high($17 for a big meal at black bear diner) I thought it would be SMALL portions. There is no Big meal on the menu, that's because the portion are big!! But not expensive. Two big guys shared a omelet, half order biscuit and gravy, and a waffle. EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING. Omelette was big and packed with meet, fluffy and crisp. Biscuit and gravers was fresh and amazing. Coffee some some of the best I have had at a restaurant. Waffle crisp. Our server Anna was quick and very sweet. Best breakfast I have had in YEARS! Will be back every time we go threw Bend. read more

The Original Pancake House - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Found this place based on a recommendation of a good friend. Turned out to be the perfect breakfast place in Bend. Nobody does pancakes better!! The servers are just fantastic, always a welcoming smile and willing to make recommendations. The restaurant is "hospital clean" because all the employees take great pride in their job. My personal favorites are the sourdough flapjacks, the corned beef hash and the Dutch Baby pancake. It's a nice place to start your day surrounded by people who know how to make you feel at home! read more

Ken and Betsy own this restaurant and it is ALL THAT and a bag of chips! We've been to several other Pancake Houses and this one is the best by far. The staff are always gracious and they greet you by name. The service is exceptionally fast (although the wait to be seated can be up to 20 min because this place is the best in town!) I highly recommend you get the signature buttermilk pancakes and their fresh squeezed orange juice. The flavors are top notch. I promise you WILL be stuffed when you leave. The ambiance is quaint and clean; lots of room for everyone to sit comfortably. Visit on a less popular day, like a weekday, and there will be no wait. We visit often because these guys know how to run a successful restaurant and keep that hometown, Bend, atmosphere! Two thumbs up for Ken and Betsy who could teach other restaurant owners a thing or two.... or three! read more

The Original Pancake House - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Food is great. We had the Dutch baby, Tahitian crepe, apple crepe and apple waffles. No complaints with any of it. Would have liked instructions on how to eat the Dutch baby but I eventually figured it out. The restaurant was very clean and bright and the staff and service was excellent. Prices were average for Bend. Can't wait to go back and try the Apple pancake. read more

This place had amazing pancakes and the best omelette I ever had. Only thing was the coffee it was bland and tasted horrible. I recommend the food but stick to water read more

LOVE this place! The service has always been kind, the atmosphere is calm and clean, and the portions are great! We've had Sherry as our server the past few times and she's a sweetheart. Would recommend! read more

I usually don't seek out many chain restaurants, except when traveling and there's no other better options, like in a business park or on the road in a hurry. However, this TOPH, located on a ridge above River/Farewell Bend parks, does a great job for what they offer and present themselves as, which is traditional home style, hearty and fresh favorites, with some unexpected and more creative items as well. This place is way above any Denny's, Elmers, easily any IHOP or Applebee's, especially Bend's/ Redmond's branches :(anything is; don't risk those two here at all ), or other such standard American brunch spots. You will wait, they're geared up for turnover without rushing people, so to me it's worth it. There isn't a lot of waiting space though. They're efficient, overall friendly and helpful, and it's a cozy country wood cabin kitchen feel, decorated with many travel plate souvenirs. Here, pancakes are always fluffy and flavorfull, never rubbery or under cooked, and there's many types to choose from; you can't go wrong with any, even the buckwheat or cornmeal, which some places cant make soft. The thick cut, quality bacon is always cooked perfectly, never swimming with grease, not dryly petrified/pulverized into jerky texture or scorched/burned, and flattened so evenly, there's no blobs of semi bubbly fat to eat around; you can enjoy its wonderfully melded texture. The long bacon looks as good as it tastes; I always get enough to take home for wonderful BLT's, or to add to anything. I take home most of the pancakes too, they're like a dessert to me, the tropical syrup is better than marmalade, and the main meal is so filling already. For that, I enjoy the Ever Popular Joe, the ground sausage, fresh spinach and onion scramble; sometimes I add the green salsa verde to spice it up. It's consistently tasty, evenly cooked, and filling; I hardly need to eat much later! The hash brown cubes aren't meant to be exciting; just mix them into the protein if you want. Nor is the coffee blend special. I don't think you can get real maple syrup either. TOPH isn't known for those things. They do have fresh squeezed OJ though! read more

Love me some OPH!! Nom, nom, nom..... I've been to several different Original Pancake Houses across the country (most not yelped), and this one was as scrumptious as the rest. Lemme just say that I like my bacon extra crisp, as I don't like the grease or the grizzle. Typically my bacon at other restaurants comes out like charcoal - - and that's okay with me, cause i just don't want the grease. But OPH -- man, they have extra crisp down to a science! As far as I'm concerned, they should get a Pulitzer Prize for it or something... The bacon here is extra crisp, no grease, yet fantastically there's actually a chewability to it AND flavor! You mean, I can taste my bacon too?? And... (despite my photo) it actually is not burnt. TY!! I always have a hard time deciding what I want to eat here - -cause I love it all. I truly think breakfast is the best meal. :) The coconut waffle, the pecan waffle..... i love it all! But this morning, I settled on the Bacon & Eggs (w cakes). Absolutely scrumptious! Service was fast, friendly, and 5 *'s! Coffee, Bacon & Eggs (and cakes) and tip = $13.00 read more

The Original Pancake House - Mmmmmmm extra crisp bacon & eggs ( and cakes) - American Near Me - Bend, Oregon

If you are looking for an outstanding breakfast in a friendly setting, you have come to the right place! The menu focuses on Pancakes, crepes, and waffles, and offers them in all flavors and sizes. If you are looking for egg dishes, I'm not saying they won't be good here, but just be aware you are coming to a PANCAKE house, so don't give a mediocre review just because you order something other than their specialty. By far the star of the pancakes is the colossal Apple Pancake. This delicious baked concoction takes up a whole plate, and arrives oven hot and puffed into a mountain of cinnamon apples and fluffy pancake. The bacon is thick cut, honey cured, and very tasty! The Crapes come with delicious sauces. On our visit, I had the Kijafa Cherry Crapes. The cherry portion was generous (no rationing of bites needed), with a delicious sauce. The Crapes had a delicious delicate texture, and were never rubbery. The service was also outstanding, with waitresses floating to and fro offering coffee, water, tea, and assistance if required. The restaurant itself is decorated country kitchen style, with a cute decorative shelf lining the entire upper wall, featuring fancy plates from all over. The restaurant space is large enough that it can accommodate larger parties, and should handle rushes much better than some of the smaller places in town. All in all, a great choice for breakfast if you are in Bend! read more

Stopped at Bend for a couple this days and luckily found this spot. It was so good, we had to come back for a second day. We tried the Eggs Benedict, Corn Beef Hash, pumpkin pancakes and the Dutch Baby. We wouldn't change anything in any of the meals. All meals were perfectly cooked and delicious. The Dutch Baby was amazing. The Staff was friendly and quick. A great place for breakfast read more

This restaurant is the finest! Every waitress has been outstanding, and we've gone here for years. Today we had Jenny as our waitress and what a fun, excellent person! She connected with us, was fun, and her service was perfect, from refilling our coffee often and serving us promptly and beautifully. She was also aware of when not to interrupt us at various times. Also, the restaurant itself is outstanding. the food is the very finest and the owners keep the cleanest, friendliest atmosphere. And the restaurant has always been the cleanest place one can imagine. read more

Food is very good, Loud screaming kids in every corner of the restaurant is not. You decide if it's worth the trade off.
