The Original Pancake House offers breakfast and lunch in a bustling yet relaxed atmosphere. The décor is that of a breakfast diner, albeit on a very grand scale. The two dining areas can (and often do) accommodate great crowds who enjoy the large picture windows giving onto Five Points South.
Although they serve omelets and crepes, and there is a lunch menu composed mostly of sandwiches and salads, the Pancake House specializes in spectacular plates of pancakes cooked on a griddle and then baked. The portions are amazing.
