The offer tons of gluten free options! Gluten free pancakes, waffles, and crepes! There is a chance of cross contamination but so far never any reactions and I’m pretty sensitive!!
Was informed that gluten free pancakes and waffles were all I could have. With any flavors. I was told that they have a separate grill for gluten free and so far no reactions. And it was tasty!
Not safe for those with a serious gluten allergy or sensitivity. We walked in and walked right back out after inquiring about their cross contamination. Menu says on it shared kitchen and shared cooking surface. Asked the waitress if they could cook on a clean, separate surface and was told no they cook all the pancakes together on the same pan.
Notes
Many Original Pancake House locations offer gluten free pancakes. Please speak to your server about taking the proper precautions to prevent cross contamination, if necessary.

Not gluten free options, but labeled as “gluten friendly.” Did not stay to eat.
Waitress showed me what I could order and they used separate pan to make my potatoes. Gf crepes were sooo good!
They can make the regular pancakes gluten-free! It was so nice to finally have (good!) pancakes again

Reviews of this Chain
The food was great, however, they had very little knowledge on gluten, despite having GF options listed on the menu. Only pancakes were labeled that they could be made GF. I ordered a dish with eggs, bacon, cheese, potatoes and tomatoes and I just wanted to make sure it was GF but was told it cannot be made GF. I asked what in the dish contained gluten and was told “idk tomatoes?” Spoke with the manager who said they would not know what contains gluten but her best guess was the potatoes. I wound up ordering the dish anyway and was fine, but I would be cautious especially if you are very sensitive. I am not sure about cross contamination at this location. The GF pancakes were delicious and came with an umbrella as to not get confused with the other pancakes on the table.
Waffles were great! There was a toothpick in it to say it was GF. Can’t speak to cross contamination but I did not get sick. Great service too. Fresh OJ there FYI!
When I got pancakes here, they specifically said gluten free when they gave them to me, but as I was eating them I was wondering if what i was tasting was wheat flour (it tasted similar to the smell). I don't know for sure, and it could have been the buttermilk or something but I got sick relatively soon after eating them, and I'm only gluten sensitive. Usually cross contamination doesn't bother me unless it's REALLY strong (Canes fries for example) and I can even have small amounts of wheat (taco bell nacho fries, and fermented and distilled things like soy sauce and beer) so I have a feeling they just gave me wheat pancakes :(
The staff was knowledgeable and nice and even helped me pick out what I wanted. I had the gf waffle and a side of fruit. The waffle was really good and the side of fruit was amazing. Normally when you get a side of fruit at places it’s just crummy, but this one was so goooood. My boyfriend had the burrito and said it was very good just greasy.
Entire menu can be made GF. Spoke to the staff and they gave separate prep and equipment for GF.
