- Original Pancake House, 5140 W. 159th St. - Oak Forest
Kawone H. from Chicago states:
“I love the pancakes and syrup!!!! Nobody makes any that taste like theirs, except at other Original House of Pancakes. Wherever I am headed, I look for one and leave home early to stop by on the weekend. California, Minnesota, and Illinois have consistent taste and flavor. Service varies, especially by location.”

Their skillets, including the Farmers and Mexican, taste amazing, as well as their large selection of omelettes, egg dishes, and other various items. The service is friendly, efficient, and always has a smile.”

Chris M. from Orland Park states:
“There are so few places that still do breakfast right - fresh ingredients, perfectly cooked eggs, crispy hash browns - just delicious. And the people here are the best - warm, funny - just makes you want to come back time and again. I'm a huge foodie (even fancy pants at times), and sometimes you need to be smacked in the face with an unassuming, tasty, local spot - this is it!”
5. Kingsberry Waffle & Pancake House, 5420 W. 159th St. - Oak Forest
Patrick H. from Midlothian states:
“This is one of our neighborhood go to places. The management and staff are very friendly . They do a great breakfast , fantastic salads and also have some nice lunch specials. I got the chicken Vesuvio during the week and it was really good and at 9.99 you can't beat the value. I do wish they would go with some premium coffees instead of the standard stuff though . I just get the water because you get spoiled when you drink good coffee every day and it's hard to go back to Stewart's or Folgers or whatever most Greek restaurants use. Over all though they do a great job.”
