Original Flap Jack Shack

"Every time my husband and I travel to Traverse City, we make sure to have breakfast here on our way back home. The food is phenomenal in both taste and portion size. I've literally never had bad or even mediocre food. The service is just as great as the food! Some how, it's never been crowded to the point that we've had to wait for a table. Sure it gets busy, but even then the servers still come around often enough that you wouldn't be able to tell they had other customers! Absolutely love this place!!!!"

"Had breakfast at this restaurant this morning and I usually don't order food but I saw the Banana French Toast on the menu and had to try it. It was devine! Not soggy, not dry. Beautifully moist with fresh banana, walnuts, and a sweet sauce topping that was perfect. Highly recommended!"

"We stopped in for breakfast intending to carry out, but dined in. The place is definitely a throw back. The decor and restaurant layout is retro to say the least. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. It served its purpose. However, the cherries that topped the pancakes were de...licious!! The highlight had to be the service. Our server Jill was great; very attentive and accommodating. We were visiting from out of state, so it's unlikely we will visit again. But if you live in the area, give them a visit and ask for Jill and have the cherry topped pancakes. You won't regret it."

"Great service, people, and food. The wait can get long, so a call ahead to verify wait time is a good idea. Definitely worth going too!"

"This was our first visit and we enjoyed it very much. It is a comfortably quaint place that has been here for almost 50 years, which shows its staying power. They are open daily from 7 am to 2 pm. It was busy when we arrived, but we were seated immediately and had drinks delivered within a minute. Stephen was an excellent server. He was friendly and efficient; the food was very good, and I especially enjoyed my fried biscuit. My over medium eggs were perfectly cooked, and the bacon and sausage were very flavorful. We will be back."
