I went for pancakes and couldn't believe what I saw, Canada, Australia, Eton and more. I had sauerkraut, strawberries, bacon and slaw, everything you could imagine and so much more.
We were one of the first restaurants to open inside the newly redeveloped Battersea Power Station — and we're still here, serving pancakes from breakfast through the evening.
Find us on the Upper Ground Floor of the Boiler House North, with floor-to-ceiling glass fronting, a partially open kitchen, and a warm, minimal interior. Outside, the Thames is a short walk away and Battersea Park is just beyond.
From early breakfast to a late afternoon slouch, the all-day menu covers everything — sweet, savoury, Dutch babies, snacks, cocktails and more.
You're already inside one of London's most iconic buildings. Explore the Turbine Halls, ride the glass lift inside one of the chimneys, or browse the shops and galleries.
Battersea Park
A few minutes' walk takes you to 200 acres of riverside parkland — perfect for a post-pancake stroll, a run, or a visit to the boating lake and peace pagoda.
The Thames Riverside
Step outside and follow the River Walk east toward Chelsea Bridge and Pimlico, or west toward Wandsworth. Views of the power station from the water are particularly good.
Arches Lane Theatre
A cosy 100-seat theatre three minutes from the Power Station, under the railway arches of Grosvenor Bridge. A mix of festival transfers, musicals and new writing.

“Lovely staff that entertained my son with funny faces for ages! The food was really good, the pancakes are definitely the focal point of the dish. I had savoury but I suspect one of the sweet options would have been a 5 star.”
