This place offers 112 varieties of pancakes. This figure does not include the french toast, Belgian waffles, eggs, omelettes and fritattas that are on the menu. The servings are ginormous.









Bread basket. This is complimentary, and includes cornbread, wheat bread and corn bread with chocolate chips (DJKung's fave). My advice is not to fill up on the bread, no matter how tempting it is.






















Since we were having dinner, DJKung ordered chicken noodle soup, which tasted homemade.

















Cup of chicken soup.













I ordered the farmer's fritatta, which was ginormous. It was stuffed with asparagus, mushrooms, tomatoes and cheese. Home fries and two pancakes on the side. Ginormous! As I had unwisely scarfed down too much of the complimentary bread, the leftovers served as my lunch the entire week.

DJKung got the country platter. This came with fries, fried shrimp, chicken tenders and coleslaw. The coleslaw was crunchy and sweet, rated "above average" by DJKung.






Overall, the breakfast items are the highlight of Country Pancake House. It is not unusual to see lines here on Sunday morning. Unfortunately,their non-breakfast items tend to be on the bland side (typical diner fare). Go for the pancackes!!!
