Ellen's Danish Pancake House

"Great "meat and potatoes" restaurant! It's a small town diner atmosphere with delicious food and big portions. Very attentive and friendly staff. Remember, if you are going wine tasting in wine country, there's not a lot of food out there on the wine trail. Lots of wine and no food equals having a big headache and being in a bad mood the whole way home. Have a big breakfast or lunch before you go."

"We arrived just before noon, so the breakfast crowd had mostly dispersed. My other half had the omelet, which he really enjoyed. I had two Danish pancakes, Danish sausage, and hash browns. The pancakes were tasty and light. The hash browns didn't quite taste right to me. The waitress was friendly and attentive. Overall, a good experience."

"We were driving to Northern California and stopped in for a late breakfast. It was an easy on and off from highway 101. My husband and I both had danish pancakes which were amazing. Great taste, light and fluffy. I slathered mine in their homemade raspberry jam and my husband had the homemade blueberry jam on his. Wonderful! I also ordered a danish sausage and enjoyed that so much. It is a pork sausage with onions and a really tasty additional spice - maybe like cloves? Hard to describe but very yummy. Service was prompt and efficient. We were in and out in about 45 minutes although there was no feeling of being rushed at all. If you are looking for a quick, quality restaurant near the highway, by all means give Ellen’s a try!"

"Great old-school breakfast spot. Standard stuff was all delicious. Eggs, bacon, pancakes and french toast were solid."

"A traditional breakfast diner with checkerboard tablecloths and antiques on the wall. Definitely a feel of being at Grandma's house for breakfast. The food is delicious and the service is fast! I recommend the Danish style pancakes and the omelettes. The place can fill up quickly because it's definitely a hit with the locals."
