Fruit crepes were phenomenal, everyone said 10/10. We weren’t crazy about the dutch dutch baby but that’s just personal preference on how we like our pancakes.. we already had crepes and pancakes so it was lack luster once it arrived. Tacos were good, just way too cheesy for my taste. My bf had 4 tacos that also came with cheese and those did not seem to have a blanket of cheese on them. Our friends were also happy with their biscuits and gravy. Overall, we enjoyed our first visit there and all agreed we would go back.

Apple baked pancake was the way to go. Served us a beautiful, glistening, huge Apple pancake that was very fresh. Bacon was thick and the Hot chocolate was rich, will be revisiting here again.
As well as our server Tara was attentive and kind regardless of it being a very busy morning.

This is a pretty classic American breakfast place, where you choose your coffee mug and only see your server to take your order, bring food, and drop a check. No complaints. I was looking for Swedish pancakes, and this is one of the few places that has them. They passed the test, but weren’t anything to write home about.

Fluffy, delicious pancakes that were perfectly cooked and not too sweet. Great texture, great taste, and a very satisfying breakfast.

Texas. Sized. Pancakes. The Original Pancake House has them and you’ll want them. The restaurant is decently sized and the menu is brimming with different pancake and breakfast options. We got the buttermilk pancakes w/ bacon and has browns, chocolate chip pancakes w/ corn beef hash, special apple pancakes and a cheese omelette. The buttermilk pancakes were okay, pretty standard pancake fare, bacon was good but hash browns were a big miss. The chocolate chip pancakes were pretty good with gooey mini chocolate drops lining it, the corn beef hash was okay as well. The apple pancake was a standout. A behemoth of a pancake that tastes almost exactly like an apple pie. It does take a big longer to cook so be prepared to wait if you order it. Lastly, the cheese omelette was standard, pretty much just cheese and egg so no room for flashiness. For all the food we got the prices here were a good value and it also feels good to support a local place. The service was friendly and pretty quick. For the money you spend we like this place and look forward to coming back and trying a few new things next time. Please note that we came on a Monday morning and there was no wait.

I love everything about this place. Tremendous food and service. Make your reservation well in advance of arriving……Apparently, everyone else in Austin loves this place as well.

Let’s start off by saying that we signed up for the waiting list 90 minutes before we arrived at the restaurant from our home. You can join the wait list through Yelp, so just look it up if you want to try this method.
We arrived about 10 minutes before our sit down time and waited at the host stand.
The original pancake House is open limited hours and closes in the afternoon in the afternoon. In the mornings, especially our weekends.
Multiple feeding arrangements can take place here in a combination of large groups.
What’s great about the original pancake House, is that item you order savory comes with pancakes. On top of that, you can sub the pancakes for any other waffle crepe or specialty pancake if you’d like.
For instance, the crepes that my wife got on the side were a $2 up charge and you basically get one crepe short of a full order.
My son got the potato pancakes and my wife also got the corned beef hash. And my wife also got the corned beef hash
I decided to go with the cowboy omelet with the pecan waffles (no syrup)
Everything was delicious. The coffee is delicious and just the customizable menu makes this experience a great place to have or take yours or family.
Stop on in when you can but make sure you come early cuz it fills up fast

Food was delicious, only thing stopping it from 5 stars were the hash browns. They were overcooked and had a bad aftertaste, everything else was great.

Be sure to get on the waitlist through YELP! The wait is long if you don’t.
Our server (Nicholas?) was super nice and friendly.
The orange juice is delicious. Freshly squeezed with a hint of additional sugar.
I got the lone star Benedict, just the perfect size. The biscuit was soft and the sausage tasted homemade.
The meat lovers scramble was loaded with meat. Their hashbrowns are also very good! Ask for it to be well done though.
The Apple pancake takes a while to cook, so order that the moment you sit down. We got it to go. The pancake is more of an eggy custard base and not like your typical American pancake batter. It’s not overly sweet. I would suggest sharing it with another person, it’s almost 2400 calories for the whole thing!
I’d definitely come back the next time in I’m Austin.
