Reviews for Original Pancake House in Encinitas, CA

Have not been here in years! Friend & I each ordered their Famous Apple cake pancake. So delicious, huge serving.Coffee was... delicious & plentiful. Call for hours of operation. Not open all the time. Family friendly, good, plentiful dishes. Go therewhen hungry! Read more

It was good. The strawberries on the strawberry pancake were a bit disappointing and the omelet needed more filling.

I got the Corned Beef Hash with Buttermilk Pancakes but I traded my friend a Potato Pancake for Buttermilk Pancake. The food was... really good and the service was really good as well. Read more

I wasn't super stoked on this place. I go the crepes and they were kind of thicker than I'm used to and drowned in warm berries... and the syrup resulting from those berries on top. Menu said fresh strawberries, which usually means cold. It was just a lot andI wasn't crazy about it. Everything on the menu is also really expensive and to me the quality didn't justify the price. I willsay my buddy that I went with enjoyed his meal. If I come back and have a better experience I will adjust my review but rightnow I'm a bit lukewarm on the experience I had. Read more

Stopped here for an amazing late breakfast while passing through the area. Great service and wonderful food. Definitely... somewhere we want to stop again when we're in town. Read more

What a great breakfast. The pancakes were spot on! We also had the ham and cheese omelette, which was also delicious. The orange... juice was fresh, and the toast was good. Our server Jess was a real hustler. It?s a bit expensive, but worth it once in a while.We had about a ten minute wait on a holiday Monday. Read more

Definitely a lot of food for your money, but not enough of a beverage for your money. The portions could definitely be split... between two people for each dish. We ordered and were full the rest of the day. Service was lacking even though the place wasnot busy. Will be looking for a new breakfast spot to go to since I know there are better places that have popped up over theyears. Read more

Parking is available in the lot but expect a wait to be seated on a Sunday. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated. To be... honest I am not sure why this place is so popular. The pancakes taste different, I'm not sure what exactly they use but they didnot taste like butter but a little sour almost. I also got potato pancakes and they tasted a little like fish which is weird. Myeggs benedict were very good so that's the only thing that made the wait worth it. I would just think a pancake place would havegood pancakes but maybe you have to put more toppings for it to taste better. Read more
