Elmer’s Pancake and Steak House

In 1960, Walt and Dorothy Elmer opened breakfast focused Elmer’s Colonial Pancake House in Portland. Truly a family-owned and operated labor of love, Walt, Dorothy, and their three sons poured their hearts into serving the local community. It was an immediate success.

Built on the foundation of Walt Elmer’s famous buttermilk pancakes, over the years the menu was expanded with lunch and dinner items.
