Elmer's Restaurant (Mill Plain, Vancouver, WA)

Elmer's is great. Traditional breakfasts, with my favorite - the German pancake (although there is nothing German about it). They also were able to actually do soft scrambled eggs...a first for dining out for me..

Great breakfast food and a very nice team of waitress

We love breakfast here. All their food is good we just don't go out for other meals. Food is great. Staff is great.

Very kind and friendly service, every time

Had good service and a quick brunch. Food was decent.

I don't know why I gave the atmosphere 3 I think it's because it seems kind of outdated. However the service and food completely make up for it. The house bloody Mary is the best I've had in a long time. $6.50 nice price as well. 👍👍👍

A nice place to stop for breakfast ?. We enjoyed the German pancakes and stuffed hash browns.

Don't get the crabs, Benedict. It was very fishy, and the texture was odd. But our server had taken it off for us, which is why i have given a better rating. Chicken fried steak is small and lacked gravy, didn't even cover most of the steak.

Extremely disappointed with this restaurant’s severe understaffing. Management’s decision to run on a skeleton crew is inexcusable in the current job market. Servers were forced to double as hosts, and even a cook had to help with table service. The hardworking staff, especially the attentive cook who assisted us, did their best but were clearly overwhelmed. Long waits and inconsistent service were inevitable given the lack of adequate staffing. It’s a shame to see potentially good employees stretched so thin. This isn’t what you expect from a local business that should care about its staff and customers. I’d avoid this place until ownership seriously addresses their staffing issues and starts treating their team and diners with more respect.

Food was good and presented well. The service was good. I met a friend there, so I didn't have to worry about waiting for a table. I did notice as we were leaving that most groups were being sat at a table fairly quickly for their dinner. The whole experience was about an hour to an hour and 15 minutes, so I think it's safe to say that the atmosphere was comfortable and pleasant. Both my friend and I had the prime rib and mine was cooked exactly as I asked for it and I believe his was too. I've been to this restaurant a couple of times in the past but was unaware until this visit that there is a lounge in the back of the restaurant. It was nice to have a cocktail with my dinner that was not overpriced or under poured. All in all it was a good experience that I would recommend to anyone looking for a nice family meal.

My friends and I meet here at least once a month. Service and food have always been outstanding. A bit pricey, but worth it. Could use an interior update. Highly recommend!

WHAT is up with the hash browns? Not cooked, basically warmed up and no seasoning. I took a bite and it was literally like biting into a raw potato.

Husband said coffee is disgusting, I dont drink it so I'll take his word for it.

Good size servings for the Hungry Rancher, and milk is really good (hard to find good tasting milk).

Also, $15 for a one German pancake???!

Fix your hashbrowns!!! Won't be back.
