The Original Pancake House (TOPH) is a chain of pancake houses across the United States. They also have franchises in Canada that started in 1958 and are still operating. They have recently expanded into both Japan and South Korea. They follow traditional recipes and ingredients for their pancakes, but offer other standard diner fare, as well. They also have a spin-off, Walker Bros. Pancake House, which has a similar menu, but with a formal ambiance.
