Reviews for Original Flap Jack Shack in Traverse City, MI
Normally I'm not a huge fan of pancakes, but I absolutely love cinnamon flavored things so I decided to give theirs a shot,... after all they are known for their pancakes. Oh. My. Gosh. Best pancakes I've ever had. Not too moist, not overly fluffy, justright. I find most pancakes too flat/moist and these had the perfect amount of fluff. Strawberry mimosas were good, nothingextra special but were a good pairing. We will definitely make this a stop on our future trips to the area! Read more
I wish I could give this place 10 stars. If you are in the area it's definitely worth stopping in. The decor is straight out of... the 80s and the food is out of this world good. The staff are also wonderful. Read more
Nothing but good things to say about Flap! They treat the customers fantastic and food never disappoints! My daughter loves the... mozzarella sticks, but breakfast is my jam! Great views as well! Read more
Super cute retro place to eat!! The colors and decor remind me of the Brady Bunch!! Nice and clean with friendly staff! My... husband had regular pancakes and I had blueberry pancakes! Then we shared eggs, bacon, hash browns and an order of biscuits andgravy! I had half of my pancakes with butter and syrup and the other half with the blueberry compote and whip cream!!!Scrumptious!!! Everything else was delicious, except those biscuits and gravy. Not our cup of tea, but that doesn’t meanothers won’t like them! Definitely stop in here and a enjoy a nice big breakfast!!! Read more

I got three of the things I wanted to try here. Everything was great, however this is only an issue for me. The stuffed cherry... French toast was something I didn't like. Not because it was bad but because I forgot I don't like cherry haha. The cinnamonswirl pancakes were huge! I wish they put cream cheese in between them all and not just on top. And finally the biscuits andgravy. This is something I came here for. I was kind of disappointed by it because it was cold already by the time I got to itbut it's probably my fault since I got to it last. I don't think they use fresh biscuits as well. All in all, I enjoyed it andmost of my disappointments were a me issue and not a restaurant issue. The server was nice. The decor is nice. I wanted to trythe banana bread French toast but I have other restaurants to try today so I might go another day. I recommend this place ifyou want some out of the ordinary pancakes and French toast. For your basic breakfast items, I'd probably go somewhere elsethough. PS: when I ordered the stuffed French toast, I thought it'd have stuffing IN it. Did not know it meant it could be alsojust on it Update (3/26/22): got the Reese's pancakes and the baked Omelette with jalapeños. The pancakes were too much haha.So much chocolate. Loved it. Omelette was alright. Read more
This place is awesome! Such a family friendly environment as soon as you walk in. Great food as well! I had the breakfast... sandwich and my wife had flap jacks. She said she loved them and my sandwich was pretty good! They have a pretty decent sizeddining area and usually short to no wait. They have little action figured hidden around the restaurant so it gives your littleones something to do while waiting for food! Read more
