Pancake day is on Tuesday 23rd February this year and if you're going to indulge in some deliciousness but haven't decided where yet then let us give you a helping hand. There are plenty of spots in London to find flavourful pancakes, but in our opinion, these are the top spots.
Where The Pancakes Are
With a few branches dotted around London in locations such as London Bridge, Where The Pancakes Are is one of the city's favourite destinations for pancakes. As the name suggests, they're all about them and they serve savoury, sweet and Dutch baby pancakes, with a mouth-watering selection of topping combinations.
Stack & Still
Another name that has more than one branch, Stack & Still are pancake pioneers who have about 12 million different combinations that you could possibly create. You can choose from a set menu or customise your own here, the pancake mix is so good that they sell it separately so you can cook up your own batch at home too.
Blue Owl
If you want reasonable prices and friendly service then you should head to Blue Owl, a hidden gem on Finsbury Park's Stroud Green Road. With a healthy balance between sweet and savoury options, you'll definitely get your fill of fruit if that's what you're after. You have to try their juice too.
Farm Girl
Farm Girl are a chain of health-focused cafes and restaurants based in London. Australian style, they only serve fresh food, their interiors look amazing and the service is always spot on. They should definitely be one of your options when it comes to pancakes.
Gloria
Known for serving authentic Italian pizza and pasta dishes, it is less known that actually, Gloria is a great stop-off for some brunch. As with the rest of their food, the pancakes hit just the right spot. You'll be seated in one of the best-looking spots in all of London too.
My Old Dutch
This is the kind of place that absolutely lives for pancakes. With branches in Holborn, Chelsea and Kensington, find your nearest one for some pancake paradise. They even throw pancake parties and if you take a look at their menus, you'll be staggered at the range that they offer.
The Breakfast Club
A caf who brand themselves as a place where you can find "comfort food", pancakes definitely fit into that category. From pancake classic to big stacks, there's no shortage of options here and if you find room for more, they offer a wide breakfast range for you to enjoy.
Hash E8

Hash E8 is the kind of place where you'll find the perfect tonic for bad feelings. Their pancakes are as plump as they come and are presented in a loving way. You can taste the love in each mouthful and Hash E8 is the perfect stop-off for a quick bite.
Senzala
If normal pancakes aren't your thing and Crepes are much more your vibe then look no further than Senzala. French Crepes with Brazilian flair, they have plenty of different combinations to suit your taste and their sweet options look irresistible.
Balans
Located in Clapham, Balan's does breakfast properly. Their whole ethos is based around doing brunch properly and that means that they offer some mean pancakes. If you want food made by people who are genuinely passionate about serving the best flavours possible, look no further.
