What People Are Saying About Original Pancake House
Featured Review

Contributor
In Short – Founded in Oregon circa 1953, this simply-furnished spot owes its success to its creative menu and fresh ingredients. Batters are made on the premises; a special "sourdough starter" keeps treats from tasting overly sweet. Patrons choose from eggs, waffles, crepes and oven-baked omelets, as well as signature plates like blueberry pancakes (served with or without compote), giant cinnamon-glazed apple pancakes, thin and chewy "49-ers" and the air-filled, lemon-and-sugar-topped "Dutch Baby."
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- Wash meals down with fresh-squeezed orange or grapefruit juice, buttermilk, house-blend coffee or postum, a caffeine-free substitute.
- Know Before You Go:
- The apple pancake is large enough for two people, but be patient--it takes 15 minutes to prepare.
German Pancakes to Die For
by zachthemoose at Citysearch
Take a basic breakfast, add a few new items and every type of pancake imaginable and you have the Original Pancake House. Their crowning glory is the German Pancake, a baked pancake that easily feeds one hungry person or two moderate eaters. A smaller version (the Dutch Baby) is available. The egg dishes are well prepared and if you can't find at least one type of pancakes you might like, you are too picky of an eater. The staff does seem overwhelmed on weekends from 8-12 when the place is jammed packed with locals wanting a good brunch. This is the place you dream of on the weekends for breakfast.
- Pros: German pancakes, Pancake selection, Excellent quality
- Cons: Noisy, Overwhelmed staff
