Well, I would say I do; but Billy's Cafe on 441 makes good pancakes and waffles.

I can't say what's best since I haven't been around that long, but we've been to Perkins on 466 where they were real good. I'll bet that I-Hop's cakes are real good too, but I haven't tried them there yet!

Had some pretty good ones at Cracker Barrell on Monday. They always serve a nice breakfast selection. In fact they don't do bad for any meal. Had the chicken salad salad for lunch today and it was great.

usually like the pancakes at my nj ihop so we tried the southern trace restaurant around brunchtime - pancakes were soggy - made me wish i had stayed home and made my own - fluffy, light and hot from the griddle - instead of off the warming shelf. maybe the pancakes are better there when it is more like breakfast time. eggs were nicely done - except for having sat under the warming lights - not hot.

The very best pancakes are at Billy's. They are always so busy there, there's no time for a "warming light" so you get them fresh off the griddle.

Come to think of it, I haven't met many pancakes I didn't like!
Why I even like the pancakes you can get at McDonalds!

Would they by any chance have corn pancakes. Those are my favorites but they have to be made with kernal corn, not creamed corn.

Although potato pancakes are technically pancakes, I have the feeling that it was not the kind of pancakes the OP was thinking of?

Nobody has mentioned Bob Evans. I really enjoyed their pancakes up north. The ones down here don't disappoint.
