pancake house

Breakfast griddle eatery

A pancake house is a casual restaurant specializing in pancakes and other breakfast foods—waffles, eggs, bacon, coffee.

The term evokes a particular American roadside dining experience: We stopped at a pancake house off the highway.

Many operate around the clock, serving breakfast at any hour.
