The service from Carmine was perfect. My coffee cup never was empty, she asked if I'd like a to go cup and actually cleared the table so, I could enjoy my coffee. (which was terrific). I had the Banana nut waffle. The syrup was warm and the waffle was tasty. I would so, return. read more

We have an original pancake house back home in California so came in to give it a try! The best decision we made, their breakfast was so so good! Husband and I shared their corned beef hash, jalapeño bacon, and 49er flap jacks! Exceeded our expectations will definitely be back! read more

Was seated and that's it. Never saw a waiter or waitress after waiting 12 minutes. Dirty silverware turned me off as soon as we sat anyway. We left and no, the place wasn't busy. read more

Maria was great! She was an excellent help during my original pancake house experience.

So this place has been a staple for many years. The food is delicious and consistently served the same way. Service is always great and they will try to accommodate to your needs as best as they can. The place is always full so come with patience, it will be worth it. My favorite is papas con huevos but I share with someone as I always want to eat my pancakes. read more

We have been to this restaurant previously, and it was good. Today...not so much. We placed our orders. Mine was a waffle, two eggs over medium and two slices of bacon. My friend ordered the Dutch baby. My food was brought out before hers, but it wouldn't have mattered. My waffle wasn't warm enough to melt the butter. I got scrambled eggs, also only barely warm. Her apples were brought out, so by the time her Dutch baby arrived, they were cold. We were never asked if we needed drink refills. The manager, I assume, offered to remake my food, but I was half done by then. I understand why there weren't many people there! read more

I have never not had to wait to be seated when visiting any OHOP location. Classic diner feel inside but what really shines is the food. Their pancakes are absolutely next level. Not sure what they put in that batter but it's incredible. I love the Country Benedict as well. read more

So my lady and I wanted a nice place for brunch after church Sunday morning. This place did not disappoint. Greeted with smiles even though it was really busy. Comfortable clean atmosphere. Waitress was very nice and very attentive to us. The best part was the warm decedent cinnamon roll pancakes for her and some summer berry crepes for me with some crunchy thick bacon with plenty of rich bold coffee. I have been here before & will not be shy about returning. Thank you read more

The corned beef hash is very good. The bacon was very good too. It was thick and not too salty. The pancakes were okay. I like that the price is affordable. Coffee is good. Place has an "oldish" vibe. Service was excellent. Food came out fast and it was hot. Our server, Beverly is so sweet and she was very efficient. Thank you! read more

Great food great service. They have the best corn-beef hash. Sadly not all in the chain do.

The pancakes here are absolutely delicious -- fluffy, flavorful, and that syrup? Oh my gosh... SO good. Total breakfast heaven. My husband ordered a breakfast sandwich, and it was HUGE. He loved every single bite. Overall, great breakfast spot! We'll be back! read more

One of my favorite breakfast spots that will not disappoint. I have been here so many times. - Fast service and food! - Food is very consistent and good. - I love the baked omelet which is huge and fluffy. - Warm syrup and cream are delivered in little pitchers. Not many restaurants do this anymore and I love it. They even warmed my sugar-free syrup for me and that warmed my heart. - Cute and cozy atmosphere! read more

My first time going here but wanted a quick breakfast and overall I was not disappointed. This place is usually crowded on weekends but during the week it wasn't bad. I was just by myself this trip so was sat right away. My server greeted me quickly and took my drink order. She was also attentive throughout my time there. Since I was my first time I asked her what's one of the best things on the menu and she recommend the apple pancake. Now in my head I was thinking a normal pancake with some fried apples on top. I was wrong. She told me it would take about 25 minutes to prepare so I knew I was for something. After about the 25 minutes later I see my server coming back with this mound of apples baked into a this bread like bowl with brown sugar and steam rising like the Statue of Liberty in the night sky. I was immediately invested in this journey I was about to undertake. I cut into it and take my first bite and I am taken on a taste explosion of cinnamon, apples, and brown sugar. I don't know how to describe the "pancake." It tastes like a soufflé and pancake mixed together so has a kind of "eggy" taste to it. It's thinner than a pancake for sure. The cooks slightly crisped the outside (don't know if that's common) so added a slight charred taste to it. Overall I was impressed with it. It was massive so it's definitely one that can be easily shared with another person. This was definitely a good place for some nice eats. I will definitely be going back to try some more items and hope that others do too! read more

A bit pricey, but the food quality, taste, menu selection, and service are certainly worth it.

Consider the potential for long wait time on the weekends (for just 2 ppl we waited maybe 30-45min) Ambience: Typical breakfast diner vibes Staff: friendly! Food: I had the seasonal pumpkin pancakes and O.M.G. - you'll want your own plate! The bacon is thick cut and meaty! I had a breakfast plate and nothing special. Definitely coming back for pancakes! read more

Omgggggggg! Pancake house never disappoints! Yesterday I went here and had my usual, the corned beef hash and pancakes. The hash was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. The pancakes were so fluffy and literally melt in your mouth! It felt like I was eating nothing when I ate the pancakes, which is very dangerous because I could eat so many! I cannot wait to return and have my favorite again. read more

Started coming here for breakfast since we moved here. Love that they are fast and efficient and the wait is never long however, we always come before 9a. We ordered the omelette, duct baby pancakes, and blueberry waffles. The omelette is not pretty looking but its is good. You can get 2-3 servings from this omelette. My husband loves the Dutch baby pancakes. It's soft and custardy in the center. It is his new favorite breakfast item. The blueberry waffle is delicious. The waffle is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside filled with blueberries. It also comes with a blueberry compote that is not too sweet. My only complaint is the add on of eggs and bacon is $12 alone. However, the other price as pretty good. 100% recommend. This is our go-to breakfast spot if we want to be in and out. Some of the booths up front is really tight, can barely get in, even as a smaller person. read more

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the sweetest lady and we knew we had picked the right place for breakfast. She was so nice and personable. Then we met our server, Chana, who took excellent care of us and was very friendly. We ordered the Dutch baby, the breakfast quesadilla, and a breakfast burrito. I asked for some substitutions on my burrito and was told, "Absolutely!" The food was fantastic! We ordered an Irish Benedict to go for my son and he really enjoyed it. We're looking forward to our next trip to Plano and we'll definitely visit The Original Pancake House again while we're there. read more

We went to breakfast at 9 AM on a Friday and they were not that busy, but it took a long time to be greeted at the table, we ordered four entrées.... one came out with a large hair and the other one came out incorrect. This place used to so special and amazing. Definitely a sad decline read more

Alba at The Original Pancake House deserves a gold medal in breakfast hospitality. She was so friendly and on top of everything, I'm convinced she can sense when your coffee is low before you do. Great service, great vibes, and somehow made our breakfast taste even better. Give this woman a raise (and maybe a pancake named after her)! read more

Just ate at this restaurant and I ordered a plate of huevos rancheros with a side of bacon. Everything was good but the bacon was some of the best I've ever had. Audrey was our waitress who served us efficiently with a smile. read more

First time here for breakfast. I ordered the meat lover omelette and chose buttermilk pancakes that came as a side. The Dutch baby pancake is on their specialty menu item. I would say the omelette is worth the $16.99 as the omelette was tasty and good portioned size. The pancakes were also fluffy. The Dutch baby requires additional time to cook so you'll have to be patient. Service was great and they get packed during breakfast (be prepared to wait but they do have seating to wait inside and outside the restaurant). read more

With a name like the original pancake house of course I had to try the classic pancake! It did not disappoint. I do not normally order pancakes, but this one was just right. I only had one, with bacon cooked just to the right crisp. The waitress even asked my preference when she took my order. Hubby got a HUGE omelette with hm, eggs and cheese. He couldn't even finish it all. I jumped in, but we got our fill and still had some left behind. Parking was right next to the building. Overall, a great breakfast stop in McKinney. read more

Ana was amazing -- very attentive, kind, and checked on our party regularly. The cinnamon roll pancakes were delicious, with perfectly crispy edges and just the right amount of sugar and cinnamon.

A cute little breakfast spot right in central Plano. Their menu isn't too big, but there is enough variety and all items are fairly priced. Their food portions too are also fair! Their coffee mugs are also darn cute, and their coffee also is really good. read more

Original Pancake House On Monday Mar 11,2024 2301 N Central Expressway Plano, Texas My wife and I stopped to dine at 2 separate restaurants for breakfast. In both instances we gave up due to terrible service in just getting attention. Our 3rd attempt was the charm.The greeting and seating was immediate. Our waitress, Paola. Cordial, professional and well-trained. Order taking was quick and concise. The cool-down from our earlier mishaps were welcomed and needed. The food and ambiance matched the service. Prompt and prepared perfectly. *****5 stars for our waitress (Paola) and staff We will be back... My husband's review is on point. Additionally, I would like to add the following. This place turned our frowns upside down. We had just been terribly disappointed at two other local restaurants, IHOP and Denny's, which kept us waiting, without greetings or being waited on for over 15 minutes, causing us to leave angry and hungry. However, upon our arrival at the Original Pancake House, we were warmly welcomed and seated within five minutes! Our server, Paola, expertly greeted us, took our order, attended to our every need and conversed with us jovially as if we were old friends. Our food was phenomenal! We had a huge, authentic Belgian waffle with all the fixings, scrambled eggs, bacon cooked to perfection, coffee, tea and delightful French crepes filled and topped with strawberries and powdered sugar. Wow! Everything was so delicious and filling! It was also our pleasure to speak with George Mendez, the Manager, and share with him the expertise of his staff, how well managed the restaurant is, the high quality of the food preparation with proper timing and seasoning, and the way that our experience here transformed our day. As my wonderful husband shared, we will be back. read more
