Pancake House in Salem

Very nice. Breakfast delicious, staff excellent, clean environment. Fast service with a smile.

Great food on the cheap and a great atmosphere and service to boot.

We've been coming here for years on Sunday's after church, best burger in town. So glad Mike is back! Things were shaky at best for a while. Since his return, and several waitresses have returned, things are great again.

Good meatloaf and steak fries.

Pancakes are very large so order accordingly. Great biscuits! Good coffee. Overall, very good food.

This is a great local dinner for a quick breakfast. They serve lunch and dinner also. We arrived at 11 on a Sunday morning and there was a short wait so we sat at the counter. Tasha waited on us immediately and brought us a very good mug of hot coffee. I then ordered pancake combo with bacon and a side of grits. Pancakes we're delicious, buttermilk ones. Grits were creamy and smooth. My boyfriend had chipped beef over a large biscuit and hearty gravy made with real dried beef. Tasha kept our coffee mugs filled. Highly recommend for a home cooked breakfast,

Great food since the 50s

Good old fashioned restaurant atmosphere. Like a diner from yesteryear, good food, fast and friendly service. Very relaxing. Off you're in the mood for some comfort food, this is the place for you!

Great spot! Great staff! Perfect orders!

Always go when I'm on that side of town. The staff and other customers always make for enjoyable conversations, the food is always great and you just get that down home feeling.

Great place to take the kids. It can be busy but It is worth the wait. Great comfort food.

I am going out on a limb here and saying the Pancake House biscuits are the best around town. The food here is always great, tasty and home-style. Their pancakes are obviously good, but today we had their apple fritters which were a yummy surprise. This is pretty much a true diner experience!

As great food and friendly service! And great prices!

I dont know why it has taken this local so long to eat here, but we've made two trips this week. Excellent breakfast dive.

They have Rapa Scrapple and I love it. I always order the scrapple. Hardly any place has scrapple and Rapa scrapple is the best.

Great little place to eat. I go by often for breakfast. Can't say I've ever had a bad meal. Nice group of people work there. They know people by name. Classic diner..

A great place to eat and our waitress was fantastic!

Pancake House has wonderful tasting food on menu. I would go back again. The service was good and quick. The server was very nice.

Loved my visit well done

OK food, place is VERY old needs major upgrades in building. Waitresses pleasant, have rapore with many patrons.

Great food great service

Great friendly service and down home cooking. Clean and very 1950 s feel. The Breakfast menu is amazing. The lunch and Dinner Menu has some amazing finds like the open face roast beef.

Great meal and great service!!😊

Love this place. Food is always consistent good. Whenever my kids and I travel to the area this is our spot! It is a little limited in seating.

This is the best hidden gem in all of Roanoke. Super friendly staff with amazing diner food for cheap.

The food and service here was fantastic! It’s an old school diner and does it perfectly. How Guy Fieri never featured the Pancake House on his DD&D show is beyond me. Also thanks to Jessica for the great service!

The first time I've ever been here. I totally enjoyed the service and my food was good. The only downside is the 3 layer cake was $4.00 a slice but it was delicious. I will definitely return to try the rest of the dishes.

Blast from the past. Open "since 1955-ish" and the inside diner decor shows it. It's a small place with fast friendly service with a range of basic breakfast, lunch and dinner meal options. Food was fresh and ready in minutes.

Great place for a home cooked breakfast. Friendly people

Always gd food and service and prices are gd. Very friendly

Great food at great prices and our server, Rebecca was wonderful. Recommend😀

Went there for lunch and food and service was good

Very good food super nice waitress!!

Small and old fashioned restaurant. Food was spot on for good southern breakfast food. Was very crowded when my family and I went; it was worth waiting for a booth. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Not sure if they could expand or not; if they could, I believe it'd be worth it. You can tell its been a staple for quite some time. The food and staff are why.

A great little diner experience it's not just pancakes. It's a great place to come for breakfast but if you would like dinner as well it's good for that too. Everybody's always nice here and has always been. I like the consistency that they have that's important in a restaurant.

Breakfast is always good there, great neighborhood place

Wonderful friendly staff and great food.

Great hometown place to eat! Good friendly service. The best homemade vegetable beef soup around!!

After several changes in management and hopefully some changes in waite staff, thefood has gotten back to being a place you would take your out-of-town guest for breakfast. Much much better.

Simple little place with homestyle meals. Yum!

Really good home cooked food! The French Toast is the 💣

A simple old time diner with a nice menu of common American breakfast grub. Served quick and fresh by a friendly wait staff. At times a bit busy and perhaps noisy but this simply points to the love locals have for this place. Prices are reasonable and the food is certainly comforting for me!

Oh how I love this place. Been here since 1957. Old fashioned. Great food. Simple 50's style hometown atmosphere. Friendly staff. Home cooking.

Great foodSuper service

Great local spot for breakfast. Not fancy, but friendly and fast. Food is consistently well prepared. Close to Lewis Gale.

It's a nice little, cozy greasy spoon. The seating is limited and pretty tight but the food and atmosphere is nice and welcoming.

Good food, good people and great service. We go here on a regular. Love the ladies that are in there, they work so hard to make sure you are happy with your food and they make sure your drinks stay full. Very good place to eat. I highly recommend it

Good service and the cover was off the chain.

Great service and food. Try the omelet and home fries. The tables are a little small and the coffee is not to my liking, but the food and service were worth it!

Staff is great, price very reasonable, enjoy specials, able to get breakfast food all the time! AWESOME carrot cake if you able to get when available!
