Pancake House Franchise

pancake-logoAs familiar as a childhood friend. That’s how we feel about Pancake House. It’s amazing to realize it’s been around since the 1970′s, growing with us, celebrating our happiest moments with family and friends, cheering us up when we needed it most. Every one of us has a favorite Pancake House dish- it’s on our mind and we can almost savor the taste of it even as we walk through the door and hear the warm greeting.

The pioneers still remember the early Pancake House from Magallanes or the Ayala Arcade. Seated in bright orange and pink booths, with old movie posters on the walls, they barely noticed the time pass as they enjoyed generous helpings of our famously fluffy pancakes.

Today, we are happy to keep welcoming new generations of friends like you into every Pancake House- in Magallanes and the rest of over 100 franchises around the country and overseas. Take your pick from a deliciously complete menu to satisfy you – morning, noon, evening, and at all times in-between.

Whichever generation you’re from, Pancake House is always here to welcome you, like a well-loved friend. To celebrate your favorites. To create new memories. To bring home goodness.
