Although times and styles charge, some good things remain "all-time food favorites" and some have become classics.

Remember when as a child your parents brought you to Uncle John's to have our favorite kind of pancakes - chocolate, strawberry, and of course the all-timer "butter-milk cakes". Mom had Swedish pancakes with lingonberry butter. Dad had the corn beef hash and egg plate and little Johnny got the junior plate.

Throughout the ages, pancakes have been created in many ways with many recipes. We at Uncle John's still use the same tried and true recipes, unchanged from thirty years ago, all made from scratch with the finest ingredients.

Uncle John's was the first restaurant built in the new Westgate area and now boasts that we are still here as the oldest restaurant in the area and the city's first pancake house.

Almost as famous as our pancakes is our mug of hot chocolate, heaped with real whipped cream, and sprinkle of chocolate chips, known by kids of all ages.

Did we mention our coffee? The very best beans are selected by John himself on semi-annual trips to the roasting houses in Chicago. Roasted just right, our coffee is rated the best city-wide, attested by the many awards it has received.

Our family of waitresses has always greeted their customers with casual friendliness only found at Uncle John's. And then there are the cooks - you will see many a customer stopping by to ask how their food was cooked or they will have a special request. Some customers are even seen offering them a tip for a great meal or just stopping to say hello and introduce their kids to Uncle John.

Being the tops in pancakes in Toledo all these years in not the only reason for the popularity of Uncle John's. Omelets have been on our menu almost as long, the list of different kinds has been expanded and trimmed until we achieved the most popular types. But, if you request an unusual omelet as many do, no problem.

Continuing to offer you variety with matched success of our breakfast, waffles, sandwiches, burgers, dinners, and desserts were added during the later years and are available at any time.

This year, newly remodeled for the fourth time, we hope you enjoy the new surroundings... easiest to find - the largest, brightest sign, just south of I-475 on Secor in Westgate.

We strive to make this your favorite place for food and family. Thanks for the patronage of you, our customers, over the years.
