Pistachio White Chocolate Latte
Jacqueline R.

Another delicious experience at Brownstone Pancake Factory! From the moment we walked in, everything was great. We were seated right away, and the service was friendly, attentive, and on point throughout our meal. Now, the food... absolutely AMAZING! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and came out looking just as good as it tasted. The chicken and waffles were delicious, the chicken was crispy and seasoned perfectly, and the waffle was warm and so good. The sandwich was huge and packed with flavor, and my husband loved having the fresh berries on the side. And that pistachio coffee topped with whipped cream? Soooo good! It was the perfect little treat to go along with the meal. Brownstone definitely knows how to do brunch. Great food, great service, generous portions, and we didn't have to wait to be seated. I left full and very happy. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to!

Stopped by Brownstone Pancake Factory after the New Jersey Half Marathon and it instantly felt like the right move. The place is super trendy, very clean, and has that family vibe that makes you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. The staff was genuinely nice and the service was fast no waiting around, just smooth and easy. The food came out fresh, the atmosphere was upbeat, and having valet parking made the whole experience even more convenient. Great spot for breakfast or brunch when you want good energy and good service without any problems I had the pancake deluxe that was a big portion but was so amazing tasty. I would definitely recommend if you are in the area to come and choose from the delicious menu and they do not only serve breakfast they have other options that would help you with brunch style of food.

What a great spot! We opted to Sit in their outdoor area which is heated. It was much less crowded and noisy. The staff immediately brought us 4 waters and were helpful. We explained my daughter's nut allergy and they were mindful of it, all the food we ordered was good and big portions! Def give it a try,

I've been here a few times over the past few years. The service is decent. Staff is usually pretty kind. Inside is clean. The food is mostly ok. The gluten free pancakes tastes like chickpea flour. This is an antiquated mix that makes it taste Gluten Free. This also makes being celiac unpleasant when you are paying more for poor quality products. If you do not have a gluten autoimmune disease or sensitivity then this place is pretty good with great flavors.

I love coming to this place when I am in town. The ambience is really fun with multiple chocolate coated drinks and sparklers with drinks and pancakes for birthday celebrations. We sat at the bar so to be expected to services really quick, the food came out within 10 minutes. The serving sizes can probably be shared. It can get really busy there on Sunday mornings, seemingly from the post-church rush, so plan according.

Service was friendly and the food was tasty. We got there shortly after 9 on a Sunday and it wasn't too crowded. But by the time we left there was a wait. The staff were very friendly. The restaurant itself felt welcoming as well, had a diner feel to it. We ordered the greek yogurt, stack of their signature pancake, waffles with fruit and the breakfast combo with French toast. They're known for their pancakes and we can see why. It was pretty good. I wouldn't say it was the best we have ever had but still very good. The serving size of the yogurt was impressive. It came in a big bowl with granola, fruit and honey. The only thing I was disappointed with was the French toast. It was just okay. We would probably consider coming back again to try some of their numerous breakfast options.

haven't been inside englewood location before so went to go have brunch on sat. we came around 11:30am and lot was full. after parking we were seated pretty quickly and we asked for outdoor. after we were seated we were forgotten. a family seated maybe 15 min after us we saw server taking their order. so flagged him down and he apologized and said this table should be for the other waitress but he took our orders. this supposed waitress never attended to us so did he make that up? food came out and their "colossal omelet" is now half the size that it used to be.. shrinkflation rears its ugly head. even the pancakes used to be huge but its regular size now. this place used to be a diner so its pretty casual place.

The menu reads like a dissertation! Our party had to repeatedly ask our server (who was incredibly patient with us - thank you, Chastity!) for more time as we pored over the many, many tasty options listed on each laminated page. The restaurant might be named after its pancakes, but its offerings are closer to a diner-like variety, including some pasta, sandwich, and protein-centric options that would be fine for a lunch or dinner meal. On a Friday morning, service was quick and attentive. I couldn't believe how quickly our plates were delivered to our table, especially considering the size of the restaurant and the surprisingly large serving sizes. To wit, none of us were able to finish our whole orders. Customizations were readily made and carried out to a tee. One of us wanted to switch out one ingredient for another in an omelette, another preferred the dish without onions, and we all got what we wanted. Things were pretty mellow when I visited, but I've heard this restaurant gets absolutely packed on the weekends. The food itself was...fine. Nothing blew us away, but aside from some slightly over-salted potatoes, everything was decently cooked. That said, we watched with gaping mouths at some of the more dessert-like options that passed by us to other tables. There were cotton-candy structures that looked like unicorns, pancake towers carrying clouds of whipped cream, and milkshakes that gave me a sugar high just looking at it. So while our own meals might have been on the boring side, I'm sure those who are daring enough (and with more forgiving metabolisms than I) might rave about their meals here. There's a small parking lot right by the restaurant, and an even larger one when you pull further into the lot.

We love this place! The food is so good. Worth the 20 min wait in the freezing cold. To be fair, we came here on a Sunday brunch time and the wait wasn't bad considering how popular this place is. The food and staff were all great. The place is so cute. All locations are adorable. We've never visited this location but it did not disappoint. We cannot wait to go back.

We came on a nice, wonderful spring day and was seated in the outdoor area where the pulled down the windows. The weather and breeze was perfect and soothing to the soul. Had a maple latte which was good and came with lotta creme, but prob would just go for reg coffee next time. Tries the short rib skillet special and I could barely finish half. Oh had plenty of room between tables so could fit our stroller and sleeping baby. Parking can be tough on a busy day, but we were able to snag a spot after a few minutes. Felt busy but the wait was only twenty mins on a sat around 11am. Our server was a little slow or less attentive to us it felt.., forgot our utensils and had to ask for other stuff a few times, but other than that it was fine.

Fried Chicken and Waffle. My son took a bite

I've been to Brownstone Englewood Cliffs a few times but never left a review--so here it is! Went for breakfast, and as expected, the food was great. There was a wait (as usual), and the ambience is on the louder side, but that's part of the vibe. The food came out warm, portions were HUGE, and the drinks? AMAZING (It's 5 o'clock somewhere, right?). My only complaint: y'all need a bigger space with more parking! If anyone from the restaurant is reading this, please make it happen! Would definitely recommend and will be back.

Classic short stack

Great brunch spot and perfect for kids who love crazy shakes! Might be a wait but trust me it'll be worth it. Pancakes are delicious but especially warm. Drink options are also delicious!

Protein pancakes with eggs, turkey, bacon and chicken sausage. It was delicious!.
Dave O.

I've been to this location several times only for breakfast and each time was very special. This diner has the most extensive breakfast menu I've ever seen for a diner. They have probably six pages of meals just for breakfast. So many different options for pancakes and french toast and etc. Several different healthy options for a guy like me, including protein pancakes with egg whites and turkey bacon. Although I've never ordered one, they have a whole page dedicated to milkshakes. They are each $20 and seem like they can feed two or three people. One day I may order a milkshake. Every time I've eaten here, the service has been impeccable. My waitresses were very nice and we're on top of refilling Waters and drinks. Also, they all had a great attitude which goes a long way. The ambiance is a typical Jersey diner just very clean and big. This place definitely gets slammed on the weekends, so if you want to eat here on a Saturday or Sunday I suggest coming very early. Each time I've eaten here it's been a weekday and there's usually no problem sitting. I ordered a healthy bowl which consisted of quinoa, eggs, vegetables and chicken sausage. It was delicious and very filling. I also ordered the protein pancakes with turkey bacon and it was very good. The pancakes did not taste bland like most protein pancakes do. I would definitely recommend this place for breakfast or lunch and I'm thinking I may come back with my kids for some milkshakes.

Buffalo Chicken Caesar for the win…read more My mom recently stopped by the Hackensack location and brought me back the Buffalo Chicken Caesar Salad, and baby, it was delicious. Y'all know I love a good Buffalo Chicken Caesar salad, but I love it even more when it's done right. The chicken was cooked perfectly, the dressing was on point, and everything tasted fresh. The salad was light but still filling, which is exactly what I want when I'm eating a salad. It satisfied me without making me feel heavy afterward. We also got the sweet potato fries and the fried zucchini sticks, and both were really good. Now, if you know me, then you know I love a fried zucchini stick, so I was excited about those. The sweet potato fries were also a hit, and they came with a chipotle mayo that paired really well with them. One thing I liked is that you can customize your order. You're not stuck with the dressing that automatically comes with the salad. You can switch it up and choose whatever dressing you want, which I always appreciate because sometimes you want to change things up. My mom got a salad too, but unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of hers because she took it down before I could. And when my mom takes something down, I already know it's good. Overall, everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. So if you're looking for a good salad spot, I'd definitely recommend giving Salad House a try. As for me? The Buffalo Chicken Caesar gets my vote every time.

The gentlemen up front were very nice and patiently answered all my questions, and I had a lot of them. They recommended the #17, the Park sandwich. I added extra chili peppers because I make good decisions. And the #17 delivered. Packed with so much flavor, meat in every single bite, and you can taste that it was made on the spot. Nothing sitting around, nothing phoned in. Just a fresh sandwich that knows what it's doing. Inside feels like you stepped back a few decades, in the best way. Real mom and pop shop, everything fresh, great atmosphere. They even serve gyros. Got to talking with the owner, Ron. Very nice guy, and it was good to learn more about the place. I grew up in Chicago, going from a stupid young teenager to a stupid young adult, so I truly appreciate this kind of vibe and this kind of food. Also, I brought my dog Chestnut, and it turns out they have a sandwich named Chestnut. Chestnut has not stopped bragging about it. Will be back.
