About Us

The Original Pancake House was founded in Portland, Oregon, in 1953 by Les Highet and Erma Hueneke in an actual house (pictured in our lobby).

They developed a menu based on authentic recipes, some handed down from generation to generation. Our menu has won acclaim all around the country for both presentation and preparation. Our batters are all carefully prepped and blended by hand, with only the finest ingredients, exactly as they were always intended. As with any homemade bread or batters, preparation takes time and special care, but the results are well worth the effort!

Edina

The Edina Original Pancake House was opened in 1977 and was bought in 1994 by former Green Bay Packer receiver Max McGee and his family. Newly renovated and updated, his restaurant has an upscale, traditional breakfast atmosphere that has kept our regulars coming in for over 30 years. If you have never tried the Twin Cities ‘Original’ Pancake House it is a great time to stop in!
