"I was underwhelmed by the pancakes at The Original Pancake House, but I love their bacon, which is cut thicker than usual and cooked so that it has a crispy exterior with still maintaining a very thin layer of a tender interior. As for those pancakes, I got the Two By Four because it was one of the few (if not the only) combo on the menu with both eggs and pancakes. The four buttermilk pancakes measured about 4 or 5 inches in diameter, weren't at all fluffy, and didn't taste any better than what one could get at Denny's or Bob Evans.\n\nThe environment is warm and inviting. Service was friendly, though it wasn't very busy when I went in the early afternoon. Some of the other patrons were straight out of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (\"Grace!? She passed away thirty years ago!\"). Overall, I definitely wouldn't make the trek over to the east side just to have breakfast at The Original Pancake House, nor would I really stop by while I was over there just to have some pancakes. That bacon, though, might just merit a second visit."^^ .
