  On a whim we stopped at the Pancake Cafe for a late breakfast. We are happy we did. We were greeted with a friendly smile and seated right away. There is both table and booth seating options. The cafe is spacious and has a fun decore. Our waitress Miriam was wonderful. She took our order quickly. We ordered the Western Omelet with the fresh made hash browns with the cheddar and onion upgrade, coffee and the thick sliced bacon and eggs with the hash browns. The food was delivered as ordered, it was hot and was very good. What was most noticeable was the freshness of the food. The portions were large and well worth the price. I highly recommend that you stop in for breakfast or lunch if your in the area and looking for some home cooking. There is plenty of parking.

  Late breakfast, today (9:30am) and thought I'd give this place a shot. First impression, an under decorated but comfortable room with a nice mix of Mexican and American menu items. It goes downhill from there and I question the rave reviews. My coffee was served lukewarm. When I mentioned it, the server brewed a fresh pot. Points for that but still had to wait. The eggs ordered over medium were broken yolk and over hard (maybe wrong table). The thick bacon was delicious but cold. The pancakes were served halfway through the meal and I wish they had stayed in the kitchen. Not kidding, they had a fishy flavor like they were mixed in a bowl that hadn't been washed properly or cooked on a grill next to seafood. Pancakes are a treat for me so that was a big disappointment. I'm being generous with the stars because the server was very nice and seemed to care about her guests. Also, the kitchen may have had an off day so benefit of the doubt. Well, on most things. The pancakes at Pancake Cafe were just the worst.
