The Aurora Pancake House

So we stopped in for a bite to eat on sunday, which is really the only time, me and wifey can go to this place as I’m working and normall hours for APH is 6am to 3pm its a shame people don’t know w=more about this place, that indeed its good food, and they are just like any good diner, they do NOT serve JUST pancakes here. There is a large menu with plenty of choices for everyone…
We got there and I will have to say the moment we sat down, within 15 sec I kid you not, the waitress was introducing herself and the waters were being already placed on the table, I would definitely have to say we had very good service, MINUS, what I thought was a longer time to wait for the actual food…
We started out both with the creamy chicken soup which was delicious…
I had the hearty omlete, and wifey also had the omelet, there omletes come BIG, and complete with toast or pancakes, I had the panckakes, w/​chocolate chips for a extra buck25, the hashbrowns were the only thing I really thought could of been better, they were dry and not much spices to them, with no butter, the panckaes were excellent…, and we had coffee, which also was good as well. I normally order something similar to this at differents venus, ((see Nikarrys)) review very similar, the tab here was 30 bucks, I thought it was a little high considering we normally get this for 22 – 24 bucks elsewhere.
I think we will definitely go back, its good to know they have been around since 1947 and still serving good food here in aurora…

Honestly, based off how this restaurant looked from the outside and in, I had low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. We ordered a large meal and everything was super delicious and the service was attentive and very friendly. I would definitely go back.

Best fluffy, delicious omelet I have ever had — wonderful waitstaff — great family atmosphere

The service is nice and fast. The waiter was really attentive to my table. The food was good. I had the chicken fajita skillet with an order of banana crepes. The skillet was good but not extraordinary. The crepes were soggy and had way too much orange marmalade slathered on it. I guess crepes are not their specialty. The rating is mostly for customer service.

I remember coming here once over 12 years ago when I first moved into the area and I wasn’t impressed. This year I decided to give it a new chance and was pleasantly surprised. I came in during the week at 6am when it opened. The waitress welcomed me in and took my order right away. There were some what look like regulars there that early. The food was MUCH BETTER this time around. AND THEY HAD GLUTEN FREE PANCAKES!!! That is always a plus for me. If I need to meet someone for breakfast or lunch, this would be the place.

The food here is really good! I’ve tried the pancakes and they are delicious! Tried the chicken parmesan, chicken Alfredo and all is good. Platters are huge so I usually end up taking half home. A good breakfast place

The food was good, once it finally arrived. We had a group of 8 (I know, a bit bigger than usual), though we had made a reservation. The food took an hour to show up (which made us stress a bit as we had a schedule to keep). Maybe it was just an off day for them, but hopefully they aren’t always this slow. All but one of us ordered breakfast — it was tasty and filling.

Everytime I go in to the aurora Pancake House, I tell myself I’m going to try something new for breakfast– then I order the country fried steak with scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy, with hash browns. Cup of coffee.
Its about a 5 minute walk from my home– Thank you, God! When I take out of town guests there, family or go alone, time moves by slower. I sit back and enjoy every meal. And… Its very affordable.
The place isn’t fancy, but its clean and large inside so you don’t have to wait long for a seat. Simple. Humble. Affordable. Filling and tasty.
Im currently in South Africa, but I can’t wait til I get home next week to stop by. Family owned and operated.
Maybe next time, I’ll try the pizza omelet?
Nope!
Im hooked on the country-​fried steak and eggs!

1^st time here. I got the «Down south» the biscuits were light and fluffy. Tasted homemade. My husband got smoked sausage omelet. He enjoyed the real smoked sausage that was used. The staff were all friendly. Never had an empty cup of coffee. Price is right as well. Look forward to coming here again!

Best chilaquiles north of the border! My husband and I have been here a few times and never disappointed. Their chilaquiles are the best! If you don’t know what that is, it’s basically an omelette with mozzarella cheese, tortilla strips (they are baked in so they are soft) and a tasty mildly spicy sauce on the inside. So good. I have insisted we come back just so I can get this! My husband got the chipotle skillet which was good too. Have also gotten the pancakes, patty melt and apple pie. All good. Good prices and nice service– the owners are even great and always there working. I will continue returning!

To the lady who decided it was a good idea to talk on speaker phone in the middle of the restaurant (not to mention your annoying ass cartoon ringtones)… Fuck you! You get 1 star. Grow up and learn common social etiquette.
As far as the restaurant goes: great food at a great price, wonderful service, and good ambience. I will return :)

The best pancakes in Aurora, light and fluffy. The service is super friendly. This is our spot for pancakes.

The french toast was actually pretty good.

I love going here for the omelettes, the service is always pretty good. You get a lot of food for your money and it’s of quality you’d expect from a local diner. They have a vast menu with lots of options so you can get most anything your heart desires.

Not too bad for a local diner. Went with the chix enchalatas, which were filled with chicken and covered with cheese, but lacked flavor.
Service was acceptable, but nothing really stood out.
