Original Pancake House - Madison

They have the BEST blueberry pancakes I've ever had. They are melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Their omlettes are also fantastic, but be sure to arrive hungry because they're huge. It's always worth the wait.

Huge Omelettes. The omelettes here are gigantic and REALLY good. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait to get a table, but the food is worth the wait. Nice little spot.

SUCH good breakfast. Crepes, Benedict, pancakes with or w/o fruit- you name it. Can't go wrong.

Addicted to OPH. Pancakes are my favorite breakfast food, and this place truly is as good as everyone says. My first time there, I kept it simple with a stack of buttermilk pancakes. Conclusion: These are the best pancakes I've had yet. My friend opted for the 4-egg omelet in lieu of pancakes, but this thing must have been made with at least 6 eggs! The cheesy, peppery, meaty monstrosity was literally bigger than his head but maintained its fluffiness despite its size. Counting down the days until I can go back for some more of OPH's buttery, syrupy goodness.

A Regular Favorite. Over the past 15 years I have to have been here at least 100 times (seriously). The food is always good quality, hot, the service courteous and efficient, and although I see that some people have commented that the portions are small, I have no idea what they are talking about. The salami and eggs (an oven baked omelet of sorts, and a personal favorite) is literally dinner plate sized it covers the whole darn plate. The dutch baby (also a favorite) is an eggy baked pancake concoction that is delicious slathered with butter, sprayed with fresh lemon juice, then sprinkled with powdered sugar. The hash browns are crispy and brown on the outside, soft on the inside, and cooked in one mass. Get cheese on top and they're even better. Yes, it isn't cheap, but with dozens of varieties of pancakes, waffles, omelets, crepes, etc to choose from, everyone I've ever taken has been happy at the end of the meal. The same staff has been here over the years, which tells me that they're treated well by the owners, and that means something to me too. I love this place, and plan to visit here at least 100 more times.
