    Great atmosphere with great service and lovely, friendly staff. We had a mixture of savoury and sweet pancakes - whilst the savoury pancakes were OK, the sweet pancakes were definitely what it’s all about. Would highly recommend the Biscoff stack! Great value for money too. Would recommend for a fun experience, something a bitndifferent!

    Great savoury pancakes! But note that, at the moment, they shut at 9pm (last orders about half an hour before) so take that into account when booking.

    The service was terrible!. The waiter keep pretending he didn't see us and look like he was trying to avoid taking our order. Once the manager took our order it took a very long time for the food arrive. I noticed people who came after us already had their food. Also the drinking glass were dirty and when we told the waiter he didn't wanted to admit it. We asked for another round of drinks and it seems they forgot our request. I won't be back again and i wont be recommending this resturant.. please get better staff and improve your customer service.

    Almost like home! I was surprised by the quality of the pancake. The taste was very good! I had the pear and cimmenim pancake. Our original Dutch pancakes are a bit more fluffy and less floppy, but overall it was quite nice! Food was brought over fast as well.

    Lovely atmosphere and decor/vibe. My coffee arrived luke warm and they replaced it. The food was lovely, although my pancake with Lemon and sugar was cold when it arrived. Felt like my food and drink had been sitting on the side for a while! Bit apart from that, an enjoyable experience.
