The Pancake Man — Restaurant in Yarmouth

First I’d like to begin saying we’ve always been a fan of pancake man! We’ve been going there for many years with our kids and they’ve always loved it and we have to. But we just went there the other day during vacation and we were so beyond shocked on how ourexperience was. first thing is the portions were a lot smaller than we’re used to. Like pretty much half the size of what were used to. One waffle cost $12, you get no sides with that. I asked was for a side of eggs and sausage and those two together cost at least $11-$12 so my meal altogether cost 24 bucks pretty much. Then the orange juice is separate as well. My husband got the eggs Benedict and the English muffin wasn’t even cooked, and his home fries were so small. He got the tiniest portion he’s ever seen. He was very disappointed with his meal. The kids got their pancakes and they were so tiny. They get nothing with it, just pancakes. My kids were still hungry and that right there cost $8 each. Nothing else included with it. Drinks were separate and my daughter didn’t even drink her Apple juice we still had to pay for it. Pretty much our entire bill came to $70 plus $10 tip and we were able to get Triple the amount of food at Hearth ‘n’ Kettle for half the price. I wouldn’t recommend going here anymore. We’re sad because this is a place we go to every year we vacation on the Cape. I think things have just gone downhill there since Covid and it’s just very disappointing that we paid all that money for a very little portioned food and it wasn’t anything special like...

As it was close to 1pm, the restaurant had just a few tables with Guests. I was seated immediately. A few minutes later the Wait Person brought Coffee and then left to get me more creamers as there were only 3 in the dish and I take about 6 of the quarter ounce cups. I placed my order right away: plain Belgian Waffle, side of Sausage. (Links) My food arrived rather quickly which surprised me as I know how long it takes for Waffles to bake. A paper container with a good amount of Whipped Butter was on the side which was a nice touch. Unfortunately the Waffle wasn't hot as marked by the failure of the Butter to melt. (?!) The syrup, which was already on the table in a pitcher that had old drips down the side, was standard restaurant table syrup. No Maple Syrup is available. The Sausages, 4 of them, had a shiny coating of grease all over them. I tried one. It tasted like the grease on the outside and had no sausage flavor at all. I told the Wait Person and they were removed from the table and my bill as well, which was the proper procedure. I didn't use the restroom. Sorry. Otherwise it was neat and clean in the dining area and parking lot. LET ME ADD that this was the second day after opening after the Winter closing, and like any business it does take time to get your staff in proper mode so told the Owner? Manager? I would try them again. OH! The Coffee was okay and the Orange Juice was delicious. They offer Mimosas here but apparently only by the Pitcher not...

On the day before Memorial Day, Pancake Man could barely handle the onslaught brought upon by Sunday Mass. The most memorable aspect of this establishment were not the pancakes but their absymal service. I always trust God's timing, but he was seemingly not in the room with us during breakfast. To begin, the flustered waitress forgot about my daughter's Belgian Waffle. Once it came out, twenty minutes after the rest of our orders, she was met with a doughy waffle and a cold dollop of butter. The Pancake Man has pushed the boundaries of what constitutes as a Belgian waffle-- thankfully, the meal was on them. Moreover, in lieu of a quality waffle, we received a complimentary cup of pulpy orange juice.

On another note, a glass of cranberry juice ($3.25) was the size of a pepper shaker-- no joke! Not to mention that it tasted watered down. When ordering, the acoustics in the resturant were so disorienting as to make it hard to hear anyone. I ordered the Huevos Skillet, which didn't come with its mentioned side of jalapenos, sour cream, and salsa until ten minutes later, arriving in small, unappetizing containers. Otherwise, a solid entree. My side of corn beef hash had a 4:1 ratio of mashed potatoes to meat, and I wasn't sure whether that was the intention or not. I was not sure about most things at this place besides that I will not be coming back...
