Uncle Van's Pancake House On South Main St.


Highrise Tower

Recommended Posts

I was browsing the newspaper The Southwestern Texan dated September 21, 1960 and noticed an advertisement for Uncle Van's Pancake House located at 9600 South Main Street. "Right next door to the Las Vegas Motel.  9600 block of South Main at Buffalo Speedway."

"Home of the world renowned pancakes featuring 32 different authentic world famous recipes!"

Very cool.

Pancake Houses were sure popular in the 1960s and 1980s. I know of the following restaurants:

Uncle Ben's Pancake House At 2510 Rice Blvd.
Uncle John's Pancake House At 8330 South Main St.
Uncle Van's Pancake House At 9600 South Main St.
Kettle Pancake House At 9047 South Main St.
Mike Lewis' Pancake House at 4009 Bellaire Blvd.
The Original Pancake House At 5815 Westehimer Rd.
Village Inn Pancake House At 1705 Old Spanish Trl.
