One of the best breakfasts we’ve had this trip to London. Fab pancakes, not sweet. The Australian was a winner!

Response from the owner:Hello Stevi, Thank you so much for the lovely review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the pancakes and that The Australian hit the spot — it's one of our favorites too. Hope the rest of your trip is just as delicious, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime you're in London! Best Wishes Natalia Assistant Manager

Rana AlMehaideb

The better pancake is so buttery if you like the tast of butter

Coffee is good
Pouched egg is nice

Response from the owner:Hello Rana, Thanks so much for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the coffee and poached egg. Our Better Pancake is made with a fresh buttermilk batter that’s steeped for 8 hours daily and naturally low in sugar — we’re happy you appreciated the flavour! Hope to welcome you back soon.

Nous avons dîner et là nourriture était excellente en général.

En tant que Canadien/Qc je peux vous garantir qu’il ne s’agit pas de sirop d’érable tel qu’on peut trouver au Qc.

Sinon l’ambiance et le service était excellent

Response from the owner:Thanks for the feedback, Slyrules7! We're glad you enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service. We appreciate your input on the maple syrup—we're always looking to improve. Hope to see you again soon for another great meal! Best, ASH

Naomi Gryn

Can never decide between the Australian or the Royal with smoked salmon. Love them both in equal measure. And the coffee is incomparable.

Response from the owner:Thanks for your fantastic review, Naomi! We're thrilled to hear you enjoy both the Australian and Royal dishes. It’s great to know our coffee stands out for you too. We look forward to welcoming you back for more delicious choices! Best, Ash

I visited Where The Pancakes Are; the vanilla matcha latte hit the spot, so no complaints from the caffeine department. I had the English breakfast with the 3-in-1 pancake). It was filling, and didn’t taste like punishment. Would return, mainly to feel smug about eating pancakes with zero gluten guilt.

Response from the owner:Hello Donna, Thank you for visiting us and for sharing such a thoughtful (and witty!) review! We're so glad the vanilla matcha latte hit the spot and that the English breakfast with the 3-in-1 pancake left you feeling satisfied—not punished! We love that you could enjoy your meal gluten-guilt-free—that's exactly what we aim for. We look forward to welcoming you back for more feel-good pancakes soon! Best Wishes Natalia Assistant Manager

Amanda Oldfield

Ah, my happy place. How can you fault a place that mainly serves pancakes! And excellent pancakes they are too. If only we had one closer to where we live, although that would not be great for my waistline 😂. Even though it was very busy, the service was great. The staff are friendly and polite, and the food arrives in good time. Can't fault it.

Response from the owner:Thanks for the fantastic review, Amanda! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoy our pancakes and appreciate our friendly service. We strive to create a happy place for all our guests. We hope to welcome you back soon, even if it means a little trip! Best, Ash

Yemi Saka

I had the simple maple and butter pancakes with mocha and my husband had the Canadian banana pancakes with OJ juice in large. The food was tasty. As a personal preference, I'm not sure I'm a fan of buttermilk pancakes🤭 but my husband really loved it. The OJ juice was fresh and cold, 100% recommend this. The man who attended to us was very lovely and there was indoor and outdoor sitting. We paid £39.09 with a service charge of 12.5% included.

Response from the owner:Thanks for the fantastic review, Yemi! We're thrilled you enjoyed the pancakes and the fresh OJ. It’s great to hear that our staff made your experience even better. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you both again soon for more delicious bites! Best, Ash

J'y suis allée avec mes enfants. Le cadre est agréable mais cela peut vite être bruyant à l'intérieur. Il y a plusieurs espaces dont une mezzanine avec des prises électriques et un extérieur très agréable.

Response from the owner:Thanks for your feedback, Nadège We're glad to hear you enjoyed the setting and found the outdoor space pleasant.

What a fabulous place! We love pancakes and having searched for somewhere that does basically nothing but - and really well - we were so pleased to find this place. Pancakes were amazing, staff friendly and quick to help, and the drink selection was great!

Avneet Sunner

Usually quite good, especially on weekdays when it is quieter can walk in and get a nice outdoor table. My recent experience (with reservation) was not the best.

We were sat right by the kitchen, and the door kept swinging. One staff made an effort to stop the door anytime it swung which i appreciate. However, table was also squeezed next to some baby chairs.

If you struggle to fit a table there, then it is not a good idea to seat people there. Waitress also dropped maple syrup close to our bags, which I partly assume is also due to her squeezing through to serve our food, with the swinging door behind her.

Also, only one unisex bathroom, which caused a queue to form in the middle of the restaurant.!

Response from the owner:Thank you for your feedback, Avneet. We’re glad to hear you usually enjoy your visits. We apologise for the seating arrangement and any inconvenience caused during your recent experience. We appreciate your input! Best, Nicole

Faridat Orobiyi

Zoe

My husband and I came all the way from Sheffield to meet my friend from abroad. We had Royals and an all day breakfast as our early dinner. The pancakes were amazing, even the veggies too! We had Loki as our server and he was superb! He was fun and cheerful, washed our tiredness away and we even had a photo together! What a perfect wrap up for the day!

Response from the owner:Hello Zoe, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We're thrilled you made the trip to visit us and that you enjoyed the Royals, all day breakfast, and especially the pancakes! We're glad that Loki helped make your day extra special and hope to welcome you back soon! Best Wishes Natalia Assistant Manager

Rochelle Nicholas-Bastien

We all had the simple pancakes and chose our own toppings. This place has been on my list for a while, but the pancakes were not as great as they look.
However, the staff were amazing and attentive as soon as we stepped foot in the restaurant. Loki was our server, and generally provided an all round 5* service. He was so lovely, my son (4) went to give him a hug before we left. There was another server who left before we finished (didn’t get her name), but she was fab too, she gave us a Rubix cube and UNO to play with and keep our boy occupied.

Thank you to both of you

Response from the owner:Hello Rochelle, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We're thrilled to hear that you received such warm and attentive service from Loki and the rest of our team — your kind words truly mean a lot to us. It’s especially heartwarming to know your little one felt so comfortable and happy with us! While we're sorry to hear the pancakes didn’t quite meet your expectations, we truly appreciate your honesty. We’re always striving to provide not only the best guest service but also the best pancakes around, and your feedback helps us improve. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another visit — with delicious toppings and a few more games to keep your son smiling! Best Wishes Natalia Assistant Manager

Kim Pham

I honestly had the worst start to my day in Battersea Power station but this meal turned it around.
I was served by Loki who was kind, and made decent recommendations as the CPC was out of stock for the day. I would have usually felt a little annoyed being notified what I wanted off the menu was unavailable, but I felt like the service warmed me through my experience.
He made me and my daughter feel welcome, the meal was decent following a terrible lunch at Tozi. A lot of places feel indirectly unwelcoming to guests with children, so I liked that it felt family friendly.

Would recommend for a shopping all day post meal!

Response from the owner:Hello Kim, Thank you for taking the time to write us this lovely feedback! We are so glad that Loki managed to turn your day around into such a positive one! We strive to provide best customer service and take care of ALL OUR GUESTS equally. We are looking forward to be seeing you back again soon. Best Wishes Natalia Assistant Manager

Yusra Rashid

Food - average
Service - fantastic

We were attended by a charming waiter - Loki - who went the extra mile to make our visit comfortable. We had a wheelchair user in our party and very much appreciated the extra consideration. Loki was witty, curteous and attentive during our visit. The pancakes are pretty average but the service really made the visit 👌🏽

Response from the owner:Hello Yusra, Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are glad that Loki took such great care of you while visiting our restaurant, we will pass on the message to him. We are looking forward to be seeing you again soon. Best Wishes Natalia Assistant Manager

Only disappointment was that my dish was supposed to come with hot honey but they only had normal honey, but I can forgive it because it was tasty regardless

Simon Smith

Great place to meet for a snack and chat. We went for brunch, pancakes of course...

It's very popular and therefore v busy. Book if you can, else there's a sitting queue outside. We didn't book and waited 5 mins.

We sat outside with the heater on above our heads and soft blankets. Seating outside is split, a row next to front window and a shorter row which was more in the sun. Indoors is over 2 floors and fine on colder days.

Food is good and I tried the Dutch pancake and we had a portion of simple pancakes.

Response from the owner:Dear Simon Thanks for the great feedback. We're thrilled you enjoyed your brunch and the cozy outdoor setup. We appreciate you highlighting the popularity—reservations definitely help during busy times. Hope to see you again soon for more delicious pancakes! Regards Goran

I had the Canadian pancakes (cool idea renaming it). The food was very good but I think it could if done with some extra rashers of bacon.

Dalsim

We had a great time at Where the Pancakes are in Fitzrovia. We got a good table and were served quickly, despite the restaurant being very busy! Our server Diana was brilliant. She gave us some good tips, was very attentive to my 2 children and what they wanted to drink and eat and went the extra mile to make my wife, who's birthday it was feel very special. She made a request with the chef to let me try some alternative pancakes as part of my order too. The pancakes were very well made. The flavour, warmth and texture was spot on. The bacon was quite tough and some bits were very chewy, I would have preferred them to be crispy. We also had the Cornflake chicken with Hollandaise sauce, that was REALLY good. I wish we had an extra pancake with that one. One little niggle I had was that I ordered a breakfast tea which arrives in a nice pot with a very nice black cup, but because the cup is black, it is difficult to see the strength of the tea brew, which is how I usually check if it has brewed enough before pouring a whole cup. We were also gifted some pancake mix at the end to say happy birthday! Overall, a really good experience and look forward to visiting again.

Response from the owner:Hi Dalsmin, thank you so much for leaving such a lovely review about Diana, we are super pleased to hear it and I will make sure it's passed on to her. It's a really interesting note about the black coffee cup and something we haven't considered before, I will make a note to discuss this with the Founder and it's a great comment. We hope to see you again soon, Anna

Really enjoyed the food. Service was fantastic and really attentive to your needs! Our waitress was fantastic, she asked if my eggs were ok and if they needed to be cooked on the other side…🤩

The pancake was nice - fluffy and filling (I had a simple pancake with maple syrup) - and the staff was friendly (especially Eddy, who was very helpful and attentive). I really liked the coffee too.

I love pancakes and when i've been in London I found this amazing restaurant where I could chat in Italian with Eddy that helped me to find the best one for me. Just amazing! Thank you Eddy and see soon again!

Come here every year around pancake day and bring my team - they handled a booking of 20 really well, all the food came out at the same time which is impressive for so many people

The pancakes are thick and fluffy, if I was being picky I'd say the bacon could be crispier and id like the blueberries cooked in my pancake.

The flat white is more like a mini latte, but that's not unusual in London

Response from the owner:Hey Nicolas , thanks for the great feedback, Nicholas! We're thrilled to hear your team enjoyed their pancake day with us. Your suggestions on the bacon and blueberries are noted for future improvements. We appreciate your insights and look forward to welcoming you back next year. Best Wishes Ross.B General Manager

Love their pancakes, kimchi one on the saltier side but I love salt so no issue for me. Love all the others!

Delicious pancakes, perfect for breakfast. Not too sweet- you finish the meal full and satisfied, but not feeling sick. I love that there are vegan options. I ordered the vegan Hummingbird pancake. The coconut cream was lovely and the lime sauce was unique. The pomegranate and coconut chips were a nice touch. The texture of the pancake was lovely and light, not heavy at all. The iced vanilla matcha oat latte was lovely too. Very fast service with friendly waiters. Eddie and Nia were great.

Response from the owner:Atiya, thank you for your fantastic review. We're thrilled you enjoyed our vegan Hummingbird pancake and iced vanilla matcha oat latte. It's wonderful to hear that Eddie and Nia made your experience even better. We can't wait to welcome you back for more delicious meals. Best Wishes Ross . B General Manager

I was advised not to eat here if I have celiac b/c the chance of cross contamination was high. We had come for the GF pancakes, but I instead ended up eating a granola bar from my bag while my non-celiac wife ate some. She said her food was good though.

Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing your experience, Kelly. We take food safety seriously and appreciate your feedback about gluten-free options. We're glad your wife enjoyed her meal! We continuously work to improve our offerings and hope you'll consider visiting us again in the future. Best Wishes Ross. B General Manager
