But it was never better, in a sense, than it was in the mid-fifties, when Larry laid tile while a Holley Tile employee-who happened to be his youngest brother, Charles, nicknamed Buddy-sat on the tile boxes and sang, strumming an acoustic guitar. I’m gonna need every drop.” Larry has owned the Holley Tile Company for more than forty years, though in the sixties he nearly went bankrupt and had to go to work for his local competitor. The man at my table, 69-year-old Larry Holley, says to the waitress bringing the coffeepot, “Better go and fill mine all the way up. But the Pancake House is where one eases back into the traditional ways that have made Lubbock what it is-a hub city that generates no sudden movements. Evidence abounds that Lubbock has been made familial with the nineties: the rows of sleek three-year-old brick houses on the southwest side of the city, the brew-pub and the techno-dance venues in the “depot district” abutting downtown, the crack houses on the east side, and a first-term mayor named David Langston who, it is whispered, has progressive leanings. But for a town that has had to endure life on the barren Llano Estacado, it’s by no means a spiteful place-nor half as backward as outsiders think. Sophisticates have always snickered at Lubbock, where six-packs of beer aren’t for sale and which, according to city officials, has more churches per capita than any other midsize city in America. It’s a throwback from birth, like Lubbock itself, which is the youngest of the state’s eight cities with populations exceeding 150,000, though the town feels much smaller and not very young at all. The Pancake House has been around for only a couple of decades, yet no one seems able to remember when it wasn’t here. No one here is on a fast track no one here is in a rush, except for more coffee. The folks here are generally older, and they wear cotton shirts and jeans and blow steadily on their coffee while the steam rises to their jowls. ![]() ![]() Now greet your caller with Buddy-Buddy song by setting it up as your Hello Tune on the Wynk Music App for free.Inside Lubbock’s Pancake House on Q Street, it’s breakfast all day long, and the patrons who file in at all hours fall heavily into the wooden chairs as if to take root there.
