What a pleasant surprise. I came to the mall and saw this place in the cut leaving out. I was hungry and figured I'd give them a shot. We walked in around 1:30 and were quickly seated. Waitress came over shortly after being seated and took our orders. I ordered the French Toast works with home fries, eggs and bacon. My daughter ordered the apple cinnamon French toast and my wife ordered the strawberry pancakes. The food came after about 15 minutes and I was surprised at the amount. The Strawberry pancakes were 4 fluffy almost plate size pancakes with fresh strawberries on top. The Apple cinnamon French toast had really delicious apples. A good portion as well. I personally had the French toast works. The eggs were just right. The home fries were warm but could have had some more seasoning. The bacon was thick and crispy. The French toast was a nice portion I just wished they were hot instead of like warm. Overall I enjoyed my experience here. I'd definitely come back and ask for hot syrup to warm up my toast or pancakes however the Cracker Barrel coming across the street will make it difficult. read more

First timer at the Original Pancake house for breakfast. The restaurant looked clean and it was a quiet Friday morning there. The customer service was okay , I wished the server would have vocally checked in more especially as a solo diner. I ordered the strawberry waffle and the strawberries tasted fresh and the waffle was just your average waffle you probably could make at home. read more

Who needs IHOP when you have The Original Pancake House, so close to home?! Stopped by today for Brunch with my mini me and they did not disappoint. We were seated right away, our server was very attentive and our food was brought out quickly. My son switched things up and went for the Waffle works with a Strawberry Chocolate waffle today and let me tell you he was loving every bite. I opted for my normal Pancake works with Strawberry Pancakes, which were also delicious. It's just something about that Strawberry Syrup and fresh whipped cream! We did have a mishap with the ketchup bottle, so both our hash browns got a little extra love :) All in all we had another great visit and definitely won't be our last! read more

This is attached to the mall so there was plenty of parking available. The customer service was really good and everyone was very friendly and helpful. I ordered Swedish pancakes and I'm not sure exactly what I received it seemed like thick crepes. I asked them and showed them a picture and they mentioned that this location wasn't aware how they were made at the other locations. It was too thick and not good, so they offered to replace them. i was pretty disappointed because they were the entire reason I went there. I got the regular buttermilk pancakes. They were fluffy and delicious. I asked foresee strawberry puree and they provided me with sliced strawberries. I think this would be a great place with good food for the basics. But I'm not sure how the food will be of it varies outside of french toast/pancake territory. read more

This is a casual breakfast experience, but they have loads of pancake options and friendly service. So it's giving as advertised, which I love. Luckily I found this place when I did. We were originally heading to a brunch spot that only opened in Sundays. So I love that this Saturday late morning I was able to do brunch. The sliced strawberries was not for decoration, but flavorful impact. read more

My wife and I have been to five different Original Pancake House Restaurants. This one is just as good as the others that we have been to. We did have trouble finding this one because my car GPS and Google GPS took me to the wrong location at the Annapolis Mall. This restaurant is located at the south entrance to the Annapolis Mall. The service and food were good. read more

This was my first time @ The Original Pancake House at Annapolis Mall. I had passed it several times & always wanted to visit, so while doing some shopping, the Wife & I said: what the heck. Why not? Keena got Steak & eggs w/ Hash Browns, Banana Pancakes & Coffee. We nibbled off of each other's plates & while her steak was delicious, the star of the show was those pancakes, which I admit, I judged & wanted no parts of. I admit it, I was wrong bc those things were amazing. I got the Country Fried Steak & Eggs w/ potatoes & Blueberry Pancakes w/ a Hot Chocolate(bc it reminds me of what I'd get as a kid - don't judge). My meal was fantastic. I can't pick a winning dish, bc truthfully? The winner was me. The sausage gravy on my steak perfectly complimented it, and my eggs were cooked perfectly. My service was great too, and for as much food as we ordered, there wasn't much of a wait. The vibe of the location was pretty good as well. It was crowded, a little noisy, but nothing that bothered me. Everyone seemed happy & so was I. We'll be visiting again whenever we're in the mood for a good breakfast. read more

My mom orders from here all the time. I've had solid experiences here in the past, but yesterday was a bit of a let down. Listen -- I get that with delivery, the food might not be piping hot. I am fine with that. However, this was a quality thing. I ordered a burger from here yesterday. And while it was fine, I was disappointed to discover that the hamburger patty wasn't the "half-pound steak burger" I was anticipating. I guess technically it fit the description, but normally when restaurants describe a burger like that, it's a hand-formed, higher quality cut of meat. This was essentially a well dressed Bubba Burger from the super market. I felt cheated. The bacon on the burger was the best part. I also opted for onion rings -- they were solid. I won't be ordering this again and will probably stick to my normal order going forward (the chicken and waffles). read more

It's located in the mall and it's a bit of a hidden gem when you want a quick reasonably priced brunch or breakfast. Sure it's great anytime of day but we went for brunch. The food came out fairly quickly and was good. Our waiter was great. And it's a pretty good place for families to get together. It's located in the mall so you have lots of options nearby but I'm pretty sure this is one of the anchor restaurants in the area. They do brisk business and the popularity is well earned. read more

My husband and I tried this restaurant for the first time this morning. We were seated promptly upon entering the restaurant. The restaurant is very clean and inviting. After we had been sitting down for no more than two or three minutes, our waitress, Nikki, was over to offer us coffee while we looked at the menu. She was very pleasant and personable. I ordered these strawberry crêpes. When I ordered, Nikki asked if I would like any sizes and when I asked her how large the crêpes were, she said it would be very filling and so I opted not to get any size. She was correct! The portion was huge. My husband ordered the chicken tenders and waffles. He is a bit of a chicken and waffle snob so he prefers chicken thighs over chicken tenders, but if the breading and flavoring is decent, it helps make up for it. He said that the breading was very crispy, but could have used a little bit more flavoring. The menu has a lot on it! So, we will definitely be back to try out some of the other options that they have. If you like pancakes, and the other usual breakfast fare, you'll definitely want to check them out. read more

had the Banana and Nutella crepes. Insanely good. Big portions of sausage and hash browns. Perfect eggs over easy, excellent coffee. This is my favorite place for breakfast on the entire east coast. Seriously. read more

I've been wanting to try this location out for some time, and we finally got that chance! I've actually only been to one other location in Virginia, and that was years ago, so I went in without much of an expectation or recollection of any other experience. The vibe in here is pretty chill! They have almost diner (Denny's) -like booths with VERY yellow cushions. It had a nostalgic feel about it. The mugs for coffee are shown on the wall and are those hand-thrown looking ceramic jobs... very nifty! We weren't sure what we were getting coming into the joint, but we each found something we liked. The kid got the M&M pancakes off the kid's menu, my wife got the strawberry-nutella crepes, and I got the Hawaiian pancakes. Wife and I got the above as specialty add-ons to breakfast combo meals (eggs + meat kinda deal). Everything... and I mean everything... was delicious! The pancakes by themselves were not sweet, which was perfect! The add-ons and syrup add enough sweetness, personally, and you can adjust to your likes. So, these were a huge win. Mine were AWESOME! There was pineapple in the batter (yum) and the tropical syrup was so good (double yum)! I got mine with eggs over medium (slightly undercooked, but not a deal-breaker), bacon, and fruit (instead of potatoes). These were all great too. But, you know what's special about this place? They have SCRAPPLE!!! LOL! I know I might be in a very limited crowd here, but I really do enjoy scrapple, so I'm always happy to see it on a menu. Plus, they clearly cooked it on the flat top grill, not deep fried like some places do. That gives it the perfect consistency! Not gonna lie, this place was fantastic. And I wish I'd gone exploring for it sooner. It's in a somewhat busy place in between the Cheesecake Factory and California Pizza Kitchen, but it's less crowded before those two lunch-dinner joints open up. Just watch out for the crazy brunch crowds on weekends. Overall, a great breakfast spot with a ton of flavorful options for your standard pancake breakfast. Looking forward to going back! read more

The food was good. The service was terrible from the start. Waitress barely open her mouth. Kept you waiting. Won't be back no time soon.

Bottom Line: Consistently good service and tasty breakfast. Many months ago my husband and I tried the Original Pancake House on a whim thinking it would be a "one and done" for us but instead it's part of our breakfast rotation. Service has consistently been attentive and friendly. While we're not ordering fancy breakfast, the meals have always been satisfying. I typically get a black coffee and the 2x2x3 which is two eggs, two pieces of sausage or bacon and three pancakes. I get the classic buttermilk pancakes but they offer plenty of pancake flavors including some seasonal flavors. Original Pancake House is located at the Annapolis Mall on the end where Nordstrom used to be and next to California Pizza Kitchen. read more

I was so happy for find out they opened a location in Annapolis. I don't care if it is a 30 minute drive. The pancakes are divine! I love that the bacon isn't thin and see through. The pancakes are chefs kiss. Our server was great. I'm one of those people that want to put on my own toppings to my liking. My server made sure to have everything on the side. She was very attentive and made sure we didn't want for anything. read more

I hope you like the smell of strong cleaning supplies mingling with your pancakes and maple syrup.

OK....so booom!!!! I was at the mall and hungry! Although there are a ton of eateries and snacks in the mall, I found this gem!!!! I was excited...love breakfast and I must tell you - this is theee place!!! Not as big as most OPH but it's inside the mall - so small is to be expected. Those other breakfast spots on the Eastern Shore do NOT stand a chance. There is room for improvement, but the food hands down is already beating the competition. Absolutely fabulous!!! The options alone are mouthwatering - banana french toast, banana pancakes, home fries.... My only wish is that the additions were actually cooked in....come on nowwww I need the banana in the pancake, I would like to taste the onion flavor in the potatoes, NOT with the potatoes...but a pinch of pepper adds a lil razzle dazzle Sam was absolutely the best! He worked magic for being the only floor employee on a busy afternoon (he didn't skip a beat). read more

My wife and I visited the Original Pancake House for the first time this morning. We very much enjoyed our meal. The home fries were excellently browned and seasoned. The bacon was excellent, thick and perfectly cooked. We ordered the cherry and the lemon crepes and they were exquisite. The toppings for each were wonderfully flavorful. The tropical syrup was scrumptious. To me, it tasted like a sophisticated maple syrup. On first taste, I was brought back to my childhood. I felt like I was a child back home visiting a log cabin breakfast shop with my family in the north woods of Minnesota. Our server was very attentive but also let us enjoy our meal. My only criticism is the ambiance. It feels dark. Still, I didn't care much about the ambiance as I enjoyed my food so thoroughly. Original pancake house is my new favorite breakfast place in the Annapolis area! read more

We must have come in on an off day for the kitchen. My parents and I came in on a Thursday in August a little after 9 am. There weren't too many people in the restaurant, but the place was packed by the time we left. We were seated immediately. It took about 7-8 minutes for someone to come to our table. I ordered an iced coffee. It wasn't that great. It was very sweet. I ordered the chorizo scrambler (3 scrambled eggs, chorizo, pepper jack cheese, tomatoes, onions) with hash browns. I believe the kitchen left off the cheese because I didn't see or taste any. The hash brown was terrible. I wish I would have ordered the home fries instead. The hash brown was blander than bland. No salt, pepper, or any kind of seasoning. The eggs were cooked perfectly. There was a ton of chorizo throughout and it certainly had a bit of a kick to it. My mom ordered the senior pancakes (2 pancakes, 2 scrambled eggs, 2 bacon). It was a great deal at $8.99. She enjoyed it. Her pancakes were a decent size and were fluffy and delicious. Her eggs were fine. The bacon was cooked a little harder than she likes, but she still liked it. My dad ordered the create your own omelette with cheese and ham, and home fries. My dad cut into his omelet and discovered the kitchen left out the cheese and the ham. Our server apologized and another omelet was brought out within a few minutes. There were huge ham chunks inside and plenty of cheese. He loved the home fries. They were seasoned and crispy. I'm rating 3 stars because of the issues with the kitchen. My mom enjoyed her entire meal, so that was good. Service was just okay. Our server was nice, but not all that attentive. I believe she was one of two other servers at the time (and by the time we got our food the place was packed), so that's probably why. The music was also entirely too loud. I could barely hear my parents speaking to me. I'd probably return again to give this place another try since this was my first visit. read more

The place was empty and the service was still slow. Waitress had an attitude because we ask her about the drink charges after she told us the drinks were included in the meal. I have no problem paying for drinks, but don't tell me it's included, then charge me. Also I order gravy and biscuit meal. She you ask me if I wanted pancakes or waffle. I said yes more bread. Which didn't make sense to me and she said it's included. Well, what do you know, an additional charge for the waffles. Then she said, ma'am that's optional, but I never asked for it. You told me it was part of the meal. We ask for a manger but she claimed no a manger was available. read more

I like this spot, I have been eating for a few years starting with the Rockville location. I was shocked to see one in the mall, but shocked in a great way. We were hungry but it was still fairly early and I hadn't had breakfast so we decided to stop in. There was a wait nothing to out of the usual less than 30 mins which is reasonable considering you're in a mall so you can find plenty to do in the mean time. The location is pretty small so get there early in my opinion. The food was good the juices were my favorite. read more

I received a coupon in the mail for 20% off of breakfast, so I invited my friend to join me on Sunday morning. We sat as soon as we entered, and our waitress didn't take long to greet us. There were so many items to choose from, which made it very hard to make a decision. I decided on French Toast topped with apples and cinnamon with a side of turkey bacon. The French toast was light and fluffy, and the turkey bacon was as crispy as it could be. My only issue is that the cooked apples still had skin on it. I still enjoyed it, but removing the skin would have been nice. I can't wait to return to try the steak and eggs. read more

The Original Pancake House - Chocolate Chip Pancakes(4) Two Eggs Banana Nutella French Toast - Waffles Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

Really good pancakes for a chain restaurant. I can appreciate a good breakfast place. Like most restaurants in the area, they are totally understaffed. The staff they have working are busting their buts to get the orders in, bus the tables, and serving your food. Some people have complained about slow service, but times are different, patience is a virtue that people must embrace now, lean times call for doing more with less. The inside is clean and quiet, but don't sit to close to the door, or you will freeze in the winter and burnup in the summer. read more

Was a regular for the last year or so. It sure what happened but in the last month something changed. Food is very different and taste is not good. It is like a totally different place.

I recently attended the Annapolis Mall location and was disappointed. I always looked forward to the quality bacon for its freshness and flavour. The bacon in the Rockville location was also dissatisfying. The bacon now is hard like cardboard with a very disappointing flavor. It simply does not taste fresh cooked or flavourful. If you changed your distributor or cooking process...please return to the product or methods that made your company so unique. The pancakes continue to be the best! read more

I had the chance to visit the new original pancake house location inside Annapolis mall a few weeks ago. The service was great. The ambiance was clean and eye catching.
