Hanover Pancake House

Old diner feel with a quaint vintage decor. Friendly and polite staff from hostess to servers and other customers as well. Our waitress, Donna Rae is super friendly, very attentive, checked in on us regularly and refill water often. Overall great customer service from her. Corny Pancake Wrap- Extra large fluffy buttermilk Pancake stuffed with corned beef hash, American cheese, hash browns, and 2 eggs. This is big enough for 2 people to share. Three Deuce's - 2 fluffy buttermilk pancakes, 2 eggs and 2 sausage links. Pretty basic breakfast but very yummy nonetheless. Perfect size breakfast All in all, breakfast was amazing (just what we were expecting and hoping for). When visiting our daughter at Washburn we will definitely be coming back here!!!

I have been a long time customer of this Topeka landmark and have found their fare and service to be pretty good. As far as traditional diner breakfast goes they do a good job and are much better than national chains offering similar breakfast menus (which isn't saying a lot).But for the past few years their prices have skyrocketed to where I can say I probably won't be back very soon. Yesterday I had their standard "Choose your meat" breakfast which in my case included 2 eggs (not cooked properly over medium), hash browns, 4 link sausages and two pancakes (a $3.99 up charge). I only had water to drink and my bill before tip was $20.43! I'm sorry but this is the kind of price gouging that is contributing to the bogus inflation we are seeing everyday. I know what eggs, a cup of flour, a potato, etc. cost (particularly wholesale) and there isn't that much value added for preparing and serving them!

This was the only restaurant we tried that wasn't on my Yelp list for our 2023 road trip. We drove by on Sunday night twice and the guys loved the vintage look. So we ended up there the net morning for breakfast.Simple inside. Half country (selling crocheted door stoppers) , half modern (new photos on the wall.)Our waitress was a hoot. She was swearing and just down to earth- we liked her! The food- simple. We got what we ordered and it was fine.

We happened upon the Hanover Pancake House when we were in Topeka for a concert. We had breakfast here on a Friday morning after my birthday.We very much enjoyed our breakfast here! I have not had a better breakfast in the area. My wife and I shared the chicken fried steak and eggs breakfast with pancakes. They had a delightful selection of Friday specials. Also, the interior of the restaurant was well done and clean. Our server was very kind and attentive.We will definitely have breakfast here again. Next time. We are in the area. I believe they are open from 6 AM to 2 PM daily, so you can have breakfast or lunch.

Went here for Father's Day on a whim. Because there were several large parties and a bunch of small booths we were seated right away which was awesome. The place is vintage and just what I enjoy for a good breakfast spot. Service was on top of it. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. There were a ton of breakfast options which was much appreciated. I ordered the spinach mushroom omelette with hollandaise sauce and a side of pancakes. My husband ordered sausage, bacon, eggs, and pancakes. I took half my food home because it was a lot. The omelette was really good. The hollandaise sauce was a nice touch. It did have a little more spinach than I like but, I felt like at least I was getting my vegetables for the day, lol. The pancakes were perfect, fluffy, airy, and a wonderful breakfast treat. I didn't try any of my husbands food but he kept saying how everything was perfect just the way he liked it. I was surprised at how much he complemented his meal. That says a lot.We will be back for sure!

This is the quintessential dinner experience straight out of the 60's. Our waitress was definitely rough around the edges, mixing foul language in her conversation vocabulary that you almost don't notice it. We were not offended, just surprised. Coffee comes with your own pot for refills- me personal favorite as it's always hard to flag a waitress when you need a refill. I ordered the spinach bacon tomato eggs Benedict and had the jalapeño bacon ( on waiter suggestion) It was the perfect addition. Not spicy but flavorful. The hollandaise sauce was a bit lemony but paired well with the combination. Service was hometown friendly and our food came out fast.

Classic small town diner food! Doesn't get any better than this for Topeka. Pancakes are some of the best around!

It was close to my hotel. We were staying for a few days and we like to try places we can't get at home. Went there and it had an overflow lot for parking in my opinion is a good sign. Parking lot was quite full but yet had immediate seating available. Breakfast was pretty good and fast. It was like a nice local home diner in I had three deuces, and my friend is as well he liked it so much. He wanted to go back again so I tried the chorizo bowl and it was pretty good. We both ate for less than $20 with tip.

Wow! Inflated breakfast menu prices. Last few times there the quality and quantity of their breakfast offering was disappointing. Need to find a better breakfast spot in Top City, First Watch opening soon!

The service was good but the food was absolute horrendous. EVERYTHING was swimming in grease. The hashbrowns had no taste and not sure if the cook would know a quiche if he actually saw one. The bacon was undercooked. The only thing decent enough to eat was the pancakes.Not sure if it was an off day but I can not recommend this place for breakfast.
