Our Story

Original Pancake House
Las Vegas, Nevada

The Original Pancake House was founded in Portland, Oregon in 1953 by Les Highet and Erma Hueneke. Drawing upon their many years of experience in the culinary field, and their extensive working knowledge of authentic national and ethnic pancake recipes, they were able to offer this unique and original menu. The Original Pancake House is a second and third generation family business, which takes great pride in maintaining the high standards that make our food so outstanding. We now have over one hundred franchises from coast to coast, which have won local and national acclaim. Our recipes demand only the very finest of ingredients, such as 93 score butter, pure 36% whipping cream, fresh grade AA eggs, hard wheat unbleached flour, and our own sourdough starter. Our batters and sauces are made fresh in each restaurant’s kitchen, and juices are squeezed fresh daily on site.

The award winning franchise was brought to Nevada by Stephan and Kim Freudenberger in 1995. Although they opened multiple locations, they still own and operate the Summerlin store.

For over 25 years, the Freudenbergers and the Original Pancake House have happily served the Las Vegas community and will continue doing what they love to do!
