Our Food

Orange Juice
Genuine Goodness

Our recipes demand only the very finest of ingredients, such as 93 score butter, pure whipping cream, fresh grade AA eggs, and hard wheat unbleached flour. We hand make many of our own ingredients daily, including: whipped cream and butter; maple, strawberry, apple cinnamon, and tropical pancake syrups; and fresh-squeezed orange and grapefruit juices.

Our pancake batters are carefully prepared and blended by hand, and are made from scratch every day using our very own sourdough yeast that produces the light, airy, fine-textured pancakes that gave The Original Pancake House it's name.

Signature Items

The Original Pancake House serves many signature dishes, such as the Apple Pancake—a single large pancake smothered with sautéed apples and cinnamon sugar baked to perfection, and the Dutch Baby—an oven-baked German pancake with powdered sugar.  Regional favorites include oven-baked omelettes, scratch-made biscuits and gravy, honey-cured bacon, brioche French toast, and crepes. Our coffee is specially blended just for us to complement our menu, and link and sausage patties are our own recipe.

The Original Pancake House Fort Collins also offers exclusive dishes, such as the OPH Breakfast Burrito, Garden Benedict, and other seasonal items.

Our History

The Original

People all around the globe have enjoyed eating pancakes for centuries. In 1953, Les Highet and Erma Hueneke combined their extensive working knowledge of national and ethnic pancake recipes into a unique menu, thus founding The Original Pancake House in Portland, Oregon. As a second- and third-generation family business, the restaurant has grown to over 150 franchises from coast to coast, winning local and national acclaim, and remains unchanged to this day. The Original Pancake House's objective continues to be to serve you the finest available pancakes anywhere.

The Original Pancake House in Portland has received two James Beard Awards. First, in 1956, the “McCall’s Citation for Excellence,” and second, in 1999, the “American’s Regional Classic Award.”
