It was always dream of Robert Fleming's to create a restaurant that conveyed his passion for great food, and also a lifestyle that would blend with his young family. The food was easy as Robert’s philosophy of quality & consistency had laid the foundation for The Magnolia Pancake Haus.

San Antonio has given us a sense of community by supporting our dreams and we maintain our commitment to the community and our efforts to give back. We look forward to the next 15 years, and are thankful that folks have stopped by The Haus for th
