Millbrae Pancake House in Millbrae

Upon entering the establishment, the place was already teeming with people. Surprisingly, we didn’t have to wait long for a table. The food reminiscent of typical diner, turned out to be quite satisfying. The ambiance is unmistakable has an 80s vibe. The overall experience was fantastic, complemented by excellent service. If you’re in the mood for comforting and delicious food, I would definitely urge you to consider this place.

MPH is always a great breakfast spot to take your family. Seating and service are quick. They have a nice table turnaround, and they added more seating outside. My favorite is the Bangers and eggs with Swedish pancakes. Update - service was awesome, and the county fried steak and veggie omelet were delicious.

The presentation is done right. The servers actually care if you’re happy with your meal.The blueberries on top are cold and taste frozen, which the restaurant acknowledges are indeed frozen.The blueberries are dispersed evenly inside and the butter melts easily.The tables are way too close to each other, very very crammed, despite an empty extended dining room.They would benefit from bar seating for couples and single diners.

My family visited the area back in 2012. The pancakes and waffles were larger than the plates. the food was great. On our recent visit in 2023, we were disappointed. Clearly, there was a change in cooks.

I particularly like going to breakfast places like this one. A family run restaurant that focuses on great food over just being another chain restaurant. The food was cooked at lightning speed and tasted great. I had a mushroom omelette and the crepes. I definitely want to come back again when I’m in town. Parking is sufficient but might be full at times. Get there early if you don’t want to deal with that issue. It started getting busy as we finished our meal.

Spacious restaurant. Brunch was good, but not really very special. Service was good. The highlight was pancake. Prices were reasonable.Will come back again.

Great breakfast with old style service. Very busy restaurant full of local people. Good food and fast service for breakfast.

Tasty breakfast food, reasonably priced for the amount that you get with the specials. Service was a bit slow, and the way the room is set up, you cant hear anything over the noise of other people talking and eating, even making it hard to hear your server.

Update Aug 2023: I added a new photo. The eggery with hash brown and meat (fried chicken in my case) are solid!This place is a solid traditional, diner-style vibe brunch place. The flavor or technique is not spectacular, but what else do you need on Sunday morning other than simple pancakes, or maybe chicken and waffle? Be warned that the portion here is big so order wisely lol.

Very busy place for breakfast. Feels good being in this restaurant. The service is friendly and they don’t rush you. People seemed very happy having their breakfast choices. The Pecan Waffle was good and I enjoyed it. Perhaps it was a little on the dry side for my taste. The crepe with strawberry was tasty too as were the egg dishes. Coffee was good too. Yup…. Over all a good experience. Give this place a shot….
