Stacked Pancake & Breakfast House — Restaurant in Township of Langley

The sign advertising the CHEAP breakfast is massively misleading. That breakfast is only available 7am to 9am mon-fri. IF it says so on the sign its certainly not visible from more than a few feet away. I would not go back for that reason alone. The place is very expensive for a breakfast spot and they had to LIE to get me to come in. Atmosphere is fine. Decent music but not overly loud. Decor is modern and comfortable. Service is average. It took awhile for the server to ask for our drink order in a lightly filled dining room. Not overly slow but certainly not overly helpful. The food has a very IHOP vibe but more expensive and less of it. We ordered the strawberry pancakes $13.49, hot honey chicken Benedict $18.99 w/holi home fries $2.99, and the BLT w/flavor stack home fries $4.49. For drinks we had Orange Pekoe hot tea $2.99!?!?, ice chai tea $5.49, and raspberry lemonade $4.99. The pancakes were average in taste, just pancakes with a few strawberries on top with powdered sugar. Like IHOP, but less portion for more money. The hot honey chicken eggs Benny was flat out a rip off. It's cut up chicken tender doused in franks redhot. The egg and hollandaise tasted fine but they put it on an untoasted english muffin which is just annoying in laziness and mostly unappealing in flavor. Way overpriced at $18.99 and, like I said before, arip off at $21.48. The 2.49 they charge for the hollandaise sauce on the home fries would be added for free at any other place at this price point. The BLT was a good sandwich but overpriced. We ate at a similiar style restaurant 2 days ago and tried the BLT there which was on bread baked in the store with double the bacon of this place with the same price point and better sides. The home fries were average even with the "stacked" option of onion, green pepper, and bacon. The stacked option was $4.49 for about $1.99 worth of toppings. The menu says they have specialty teas which they were out of. All of them. So the wife had $2.99 orange pekoe. $3 for a tea bag and hot water. The other two drinks were for my kids. $5.49 and $4.99. They were both so sweet that my kids would not drink them. I tried them both. Not much to say about the flavors because the sweetness overpowered it. $70.79 + $12.74=$83.53 what a joke. Lastly, anyone else getting annoyed that 18% is the lowest amount of tip available when they hand you the terminal? If you are going to charge high end prices and expect A PERCENTAGE of that high price as a tip forget 18%. It's infuriating. I do not recommend and for your misleading sign out front i will be suggesting THE HARD BEAN right around the corner. Same price point, far more interesting and delicious food and NO LIES in their...

Food was abysmal, took over 30min to get a table on a Friday morning however our server was good (but could tell she had a rough day). But we had to ask for cutlery twice, and then received two sets. The restaurant was extremely noisy and chaotic and the staff seemed either overworked/frazzled or completely checked-out/aloof.

Ordered the chicken and waffles, which claimed "fried chicken with hot honey" and "cheddar waffles" however what was served was chicken strips swimming in buffalo sauce and soggy flavourless waffles doused in garlic ranch sauce (supposed to be a parm sauce) with a pound of raw green onions dumped on top. I had to send it back and just got the basic 2 egg, turkey bacon, toast and potatoes. This meal was edible, but I could have made it at home for a fraction of the cost.

Ordered the BLT with tomato soup. The sandwich arrived first, and the soup 5 min later. The sandwich was miniature, not sure where they even found bread slices that small and the tomato soup was cream based and extremely salty - to an inedible level.

Ordered the kids combo with the birthday cake pancake. The pancake was extremely doughy and extremely sweet (though I would expect as such from birthday cake topping).

Service was decent and quick and were receptive to feedback about the chicken and waffles. Someone came around to refill drip coffee often enough. We didn't complain about the BLT/soup as we were already pretty done by that point.

tldr: menu descriptions/pictures did not match what was served (or were not descriptive enough/greatly extrapolate "flavours" that did not exist). Food quality was sub-par for price (at least IHOP and Denny's you know what you're paying for). Likely...

Not sure where to peg this one. To give context I guess this may not be a proper review. My first interaction here was to get breakfast to go. I ordered the "Jumbo Express". I get the feeling that when this is served on a platter it looks and tastes better. I will say that the price is great for what i ordered.

Lets talk about the good... -eggs over easy were perfect. -toast and butter was just right. -bacon was well done as requested

And.. the not so good... -sausage was add-on and tasted like it had been in the warmer too long. -did not give me peanut butter as requested. Not a Jam fan. Guess they forgot. -hashbrowns... I'm torn here. They were warm to cold but had only been in the container for 4 minutes before I opened it up to eat it. I ordered the 1.29 onions add-on... I counted 18 tiny pieces of diced onion. Not really worth it at all. I will say that the potatoes weren't terrible in any way. They were edible. -only one ketchup packet. I asked for extra ketchup... sooo... not sure how to grade that.

Kay. So back to the good...

THE STAFF! very warm, and welcoming. I could sense that when I asked for certain things like a sleeve for my hot coffee they actually didn't have it which isn't her fault but the establishment. Holding a scalding hot coffee really sucks. Help your servers serve better... little things do matter.

Anyways... enough was done to come back and try this place out with my family and actually sit down. I expect the sit-down experience to be much better.

If that's the case I'll definitely update this review.

I don't mean any malice here... I think I just did my 1st experience wrong and I'm always transparent in my reviews. We'll...
