This is it! The "original" pancake house. Surprisingly, they don't offer that many different pancake types. Just an option of bananas or chocolate chips. They're known for the "Dutch baby" an oven baked sweet breakfast bread. I tried the Farmhouse plate, which may as well be called a Lumberjack Jr. as it has a little bit of everything: pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon. This place is great for brunch and great for seating large groups. read more

I highly recommend stopping in to have a bite. There can be a bit of a wait so, please join the waitlist before arriving. The food was really good. I really liked the Caramel Latte. read more

I've been a customer of this location for 30+ years, and it continues to be my favorite breakfast anywhere. Their baked apple pancake is an amazingly decadent confection, and their bacon is addictive. Add in strong black coffee and even excellent butter (really), and you've made me a happy diner for years. read more

The chocolate milk is so good and not a lot not a little but just right amount of sugar read more

The Original Pancake House - Chocolate milk - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dallas, Texas

This is where you come to stuff yourself with pancakes and all other decadent breakfast items. Sure, they have a lunch menu too, but the diner excels in making pancakes. If you get a regular table, you can at least push yourself away from the edge to accommodate your expanding belly. We were at a booth, but since my bench didn't have a table behind me, I was able to push back and make some room. We came around 10:30 am on a Sunday in January. There were a lot of people there, but our service was fantastic. Lori regularly checked on us, brought iced tea refills, and offered us things we might need. My Eggs Benedict actually came with potatoes, but I asked if I could substitute them with pancakes. Our waitress, Lori, replied in an upbeat tone, "We're a pancake house, you can always get pancakes!". My plain stack of pancakes were delightful, and although, not really healthy, my Eggs Benedict Florentine did come with spinach, tomato, and mushrooms, so I felt a little better about pigging out. My husband ordered the monster Western Cheddar Omelette that is made with four eggs, ham, and a slew of veggies. He also got the Banana Pecan Pancakes. He devoured that instead of the omelette, but he did manage to savor at least half of the omelette. We waddled out of there stuffed. I'm pretty sure we won't need to eat (or want to eat) anything else for the day. Great place to enjoy a filling meal with friends and family anytime. read more

Me and my husband love having breakfast at The Original Pancake House! The place is always full on the weekends, which you know means that the place is really good hah! And they always seat people right away, or if we wait it's normally not too long if it's busy. We always order the Belgium waffles, they are fluffy, buttery and sooo good! My favorite is the breakfast burrito, and with the salsa that comes with it is what keeps me from trying something new it's that good! I also add avocado for the avocado lovers out there We also love the coffee because you can tell us freshly brewed such a great place, we always come back to it and it is definitely worth trying ! read more

An amazing experience. The service was very fast, cordial and also light hearted and our waitress had a great sense of humor. The corned beef hash that I ordered came out perfectly, the pancakes were light colored and fluffy, came out perfectly. I loved this place and would come back again. read more

Lived in Carrollton all my life and barely tried pancake house last year. The food is top tier and everyone is so friendly. It's like eating at grandmas house.. warm, cozy, and delicious. Will come back many more times read more

I was looking to find a good breakfast spot and I've been meaning to try this place out The aesthetic is clean and overall old-timey and the service was great. I ordered myself some pancakes along with a Latte and some loaded potatoes. The food was very good but it was a bit pricey though, but it can be good on occasion. So if you're looking to find a good breakfast experience this is a good place to go. read more

This place hit the spot for a great late breakfast/ early lunch. Finally a place that knows how to make a good coffee. Eggs and Bacon - great flavor and the fresh-squeezed orange juice - WOW! Lisa B. was our server and was awesome. read more

I wouldn't recommend. Food was blend. Steak was over cooked and chewy. Potatoes were just not it. Bacon was maple super sweet. Lots of gnats, they oddly came out when our food came. Our server wasn't very attentive either. We waited a long time to place the order and get the order, items were still missed. Meh. read more

Don't expect fancy, but do expect good. Pro tip if you want a unique pancake experience order the Dutch baby or the Dutch pancake, which is the same as the baby but much larger, or the apple pancake. However, the cook time is 22 to 25 minutes, depending upon what you order. So if you think you want one of those, which I highly recommend I suggest ordering at the minute you sit down, that way you're not unnecessarily delayed. That's an especially useful tip on a weekend day. I've been going there for years at locations all over the country. It's a great little place. read more

Gave the Orig Pancake House another try and we were not disappointed! Service by Lori was exceptional. She made everything so easy and anticipated our every need - all with a big smile. OJ is fresh squeezed daily and so good! Their bacon is thick and perfectly cooked, as are the large sausage patties. Highly recommend both! Eggs were perfectly cooked to order. Grits are ok, but could be better. Last but not least are the delicious pancakes. Not overly thick and good flavor. Can't wait to return. read more

Still an amazing place to have breakfast! We go for the service just as much as the food. Lori is the Greatest! Wouldn't have it any other way! Thank you, Lori!! FIVE STARS PLUS!!! read more

Amazing omelettes and great sides. This place used to have a waiting line after 11 am but no longer does. I don't know why it is no longer as busy but my wife and I enjoy walking in and having a fantastic omelette with great sides of bacon at any time - no wait. read more

Service at the bar is aways awesome. We love Darelis! Such a professional she always greets up with a warm and inviting smill.

Our family ate here this morning and I forgot how much we love this place. Service was awesome and you can get on the waitlist from the Yelp app so you don't have to wait longer than you have to. My husband and daughter had the seasonal pumpkin items and they were soooo good! read more

Yummy Yummy Yummy! Highly recommend Love this place. Excelente service Clean great atmosphere read more

What the heck happened at this location? I know the weekends are typically super busy, but there were tons of empty tables, while the waiting area was packed. Typically, I would guess it was a shortage of servers, but the servers I could see in the kitchen and the prep area were standing around talking, drinking coffee, and fixing their hair, instead of serving customers. Definitely not the way it used to be. There are way too many new breakfast places around now that do a better job. read more

I took the kids here for breakfast, and they enjoyed themselves. The customer service was excellent, and I loved the teamwork. Ryan was our server, and he did a great job. He was attentive to his entire section, and we never went without anything--we never felt overlooked. I will be back. read more

There was a 10 min wait but there was plenty of seating until our table was ready. The staff was all very friendly. The manager came by to chat and the barista also came by to make sure our coffee drinks were to our liking. The eggs Benedict tasted amazing! It was full of flavor and the eggs weren't overcooked. Our food came out in spurts, which was a bit of a bummer but the manager was apologetic. We also ordered the apple pancake, which is massive and delicious. It's more like a dessert. The atmosphere was cool...typical diner style. We'd definitely return. read more

Every time I am in the area I run here for breakfast... it is a must for me! My order is always the same! Apple pancake (order immediately because it takes longer than anything else) and crispy bacon. Add a latte and an unsweet tea please and it's perfect! This time was a tiny bit different as I thought the custard in the pancake was a bit eggier than usual but I put that pancake down anyway!! They have expanded since my last visit but it was nicely done and still relevant to the originality of the place. The best part of my visit this Saturday was NO WAIT!! I have been so use to 1-2 hour wait times! Use Yelp to get on the waitlist if needed! read more

Came in on a Sunday before the Cowboys game! I got the Maple Pecan Banana Waffles and they were excellent. The service was perfect and I never had an empty cup of coffee. The place has a very New York deli/cafe vibe to it. My dad got a very hearty omelette and we both had to work to finish it. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Food was great though their potato fries are good, hash brown potatoes would have been better Lori was our server and was fantastic (as always). She is fast and efficient The only negative was that I observed a busy boy drop two forks on the floor and then pick them up and put them in the tray with clean silverware. And of course with hard floors and hard ceilings; noise is always an issue Karen the manager took care immediately of the silverware issue. She is on top of the operation read more

This is one of my regular spots for Saturday morning brunch. I hop on the Yelp waitlist and then can usually walk in without a wait. Hands down, my favorite dish is any of the French omelettes. They're simply delicious, fluffy, huge, and baked in the oven. I get them with a side of pancakes, wheat toast, or crepes (upcharge). If you're carb-conscious like me, ask for sugar-free syrup, it's delicious. The dutch baby is also amazing, and I've enjoyed the avocado toast as well. The coffee is pretty dark, but I always seem to get it anyway. It comes in a cute earthenware mug. They offer espresso beverages as well here. I love the cozy, homey atmosphere of this particular restaurant. The building is older with a huge coffee cup on top, and I love it. The service is usually okay, and on a Saturday it's pleasantly bustling. read more

The price was outrageous, for food that tastes like it was made a day before. I did take out and I did not get syrup with pancakes, I didn't get silver ware, I didn't even get napkins. The only good part of the this place was coming to the realization that it's just overpriced cardboard that they call breakfast. I wish I could give a lower rating this should be -3. Thank you for being bad, never have to worry about me eating here again, I rather gas station breakfast than this. read more

Definitely a contender with all the other breakfast places in the area. Very good food, large portions, and the service was good. We had to wait a bit for our food but it was a busy after church rush I'm sure. wasn't too long. We were just staving read more

Consistent quality fast service every time and the food is great. I come here every other Sunday and I'm always happy.

I love the vibes, very homey feeling. Clean! Manager Andrew was very nice and involved on the floor with the waiters. Our waiter Lisa was very attentive and quick and super friendly. I ordered the Farmhouse breakfast with a side of potatoes, and I subbed for pumpkin pancakes. SO GOOD! My husband got the Belgian waffle and sausage links- the best sausage I've had in a while. Bacon was also delicious. Great coffee. We will be back! read more

The food was amazing and the service was too. Great place to take your family. Big variety of fresh squeezed juices also!

We went there this morning for breakfast because we had not been there in a while. The place was unusually empty for that time of the morning. There was no hostess at the front so an unhappy server took us to our table.The emptiness pf the place became crystal clear as we browsed the menu. $20.99 for the meats that omelette, $14 for a breakfast burrito, $5 for a small glass of juice, almost $6 for a latte, small portions, tasteless food, smaller menu. $60+ for a mediocre breakfast for two is WAY too much. read more

The Original Pancake House never disappoints! The bacon cheddar omelette is cheese overload and it was perfection!
