In Short
Founded in Oregon circa 1953, this simply-furnished spot owes its success to its creative menu and fresh ingredients. Batters are made on the premises; a special "sourdough starter" keeps treats from tasting overly… Read Full Editorial

Good, but be prepared to wait! by JM210 via Citysearch on 1/8/2012

I went with a group of 4 other people and we called ahead to make sure we didn't have a long wait on a Saturday morning. When we arrived we were told we'd have to wait 25 minutes, but we were sat 55 minutes later. However, we were given…

Very good neighborhood breakfast spot by kjkjk via Citysearch on 12/25/2010

I've been a neighborhood regular here for 12 years. I'm a bruncher/breakfaster, so not familiar with lunch options. But as far as breakfast goes, you really can't go wrong. Friendly, speedy service and delicious food. (The whole wheat…

Amazing food! by Heather T via Insider Pages on 4/30/2010

Original Pancake House is amazing! My husband gets the 49'er flapjacks and I get the fresh fruit waffle... the thick cut bacon and hashbrowns are also amazing!!

The Best Breakfast by Sarah W via Insider Pages on 4/16/2010

The.best.breakfast.you.will.ever.find. My family has been going to the OPH for over 30 years, and everything is incredibly good. As close to home cooking (or better?) than you will ever get. I could go on and on. This is a great place to…

Horrible Service by km11 via Citysearch on 4/14/2010

The service here is absolutely horrible. We were greeted with a stern look and "how many" I had a 16 month old on my hip and was never once offered a high chair or kid menu, had to ask and wait for both. We saw our waitress once, to…

Heart Warming by lincoln224 via Citysearch on 10/29/2009

I have been in the Military for 3 years, whenever I come home on a break to see my Mom , we go here straight from the airport, literally with the luggage in the car!\r The food is amazing so is the coffee... such a wonderfull place to feel…

The BEST place for breakfast in the Cities! by kkgrandmarais via Citysearch on 6/28/2009

Just about every weekend you'll find me at one (or both) of the Original Pancake locations in Edina and Eden Prairie. I consider the Edina location the "original" OPH, and it is beautifully decorated with stained glass that I'm told came…

Very Busy & Very Rude by Jacksg77 via Citysearch on 3/7/2009

The wait is to long 40 minutes?? The hosts are terrible. The food\r might be good but the service is so bad. Don't waste your time \r waiting. I would go across the street and eat somewhere else. \r Their service has gone down hill and I…

not coming back by liltel via Citysearch on 1/28/2009

\r \r \r \r \r Just want to let everybody know about the RUDEST SERVICE I have ever seen! The table wait was 40+ minutes. We had 7 people in our party-- a 39 week pregnant lady, a 3 year old child and an 81 year old Grandmother.…

Short Order by Bruce S via Insider Pages on 10/6/2008

Order a short stack or the huge apple baked pancake. I had the biggest bowl of fresh fruit and berries I'd ever seen. My companion ordered blueberry pancakes that were gobbled up before the server brought me a second cup of coffee. Well…

Great Place to stop for a while!!! by lynn101 via Citysearch on 8/2/2008

I dont really know what all of you mean. Everytime we go into OPH yes, the lines are long, but dont you kind of expect that from a great restaurant? My family and I have always been greated warmly and we feel welcome, like we are in…

Slow service and the food made me ill. by TheEmOne via Citysearch on 6/26/2008

Maybe the breakfast experience is better, but lunch was awful! The place was understaffed and our server was absolutely frazzled. Service was slow and we waited over twenty minutes for five 'dollar pancakes' for my daughter. To top off the…

The best food, the worst hostesses. by BJS1234567 via Citysearch on 3/15/2008

I have to agree with the others here. The hostesses are horrible. I can usually deal with it up but it send my husband off the deep end. They are wretched and you have to deal with them every single time you go there. Once you get past…

Best breakfast in the Cities! by Ertuio via Citysearch on 1/23/2008

Great spot for breakfast, warm and cozy atmosphere. Always the best food and service, but the wait can be long on the weekends. Try the Apple Pancake and Thick-Cut bacon, both are amazing! 5 STARS!

Great Food | Poor Customer Service by apt24 via Citysearch on 10/19/2007

OHP has excellent food, as I hinted at in my subject line - but let me tell you - there has probably only been a handful, if that, of time they have given me the correct order. There is always something missing - from simply an order of…

Long wait, somewhat rude at times, but, ahhh the food and the coffee!!! by bubbaedina via Citysearch on 2/28/2007

I have been going to OPH since it opened almost 30 years ago. Yes, the lines are long. Yes, some of the hostesses are rude. But, I have only had a few servers that were rude. \r \r But, when I bite into that bacon, or drink that glorious…

GREAT food, HORRIBLE management. by sarasgotgame via Citysearch on 9/4/2006

Every meal here has been the best but without fail it is painfully obviius that this is the worst run place on the planet. We have never waited less than 20 minutes and every single hostess is beyond rude, seriously inexcusably rude. If…

Reservations recommended by Stephanie D via Insider Pages on 6/21/2006

I've only been to this place on Saturday mornings and they are super busy. Even when we did make reservations, we had to wait. But the wait is definitely worth it because their food is amazing. The portion sizes are huge and are priced…

Definitely NOT like Oregon by elosogrande via Citysearch on 8/7/2005

The Oregon locations that share this name are busy too, but the people are friendly & their menus much more/better brekafast fare. My 4 of 5 trips to the Edina location for takeout have been disappointing...from poor service & long waits…

An Ablsolute Must for Breakfast Lovers by richdickinson via Citysearch on 7/16/2003

This place is a little bit of heaven on earth. It's very laid back with a very nice staff. The food is incredible and worth ever dollar. Any person from 4 to 104 will love this place, as long as they like breakfast food. Everythring…
