Family-run since 1984
Our story
A neighborhood breakfast house on South Kolb Road, run by the same family for more than forty years.
Joe’s Pancake House opened its doors on June 14, 1984. More than forty years later, we’re still family-run and still in our original spot on South Kolb Road in Tucson.
We pride ourselves on doing basic breakfast right: buttermilk pancakes off the griddle, eggs cooked to order, hash browns and coffee that keeps coming. Come on in and give us a try. You may love what everyone else loves about us too.
Over the years our regulars have made us a Tucson favorite, and readers of the Arizona Daily Star have voted us a Best Breakfast winner more than once.

It never takes long to get seated or for orders to be taken… It’s been my favorite breakfast place for years.

It’s the quintessential American diner, but with a Tucson twist. We go for the very large portions, fresh ingredients and friendly service.

I love this little place… the food is cooked well to order. The prices are also very reasonable, especially the daily specials.
