But if you’re feeling a bit fancy—like you’ve just had a good hair day and you deserve a treat—look at the Battersea Bloom. It’s a pancake topped with smoked salmon, crème fraîche, and a poached egg that, when you poke it, creates a glorious yellow sauce. It sounds fancy, but eating it feels like the most natural thing in the world.
You know that feeling when you’re at a friend’s house and they make you breakfast without asking what you want, and it just works? That’s this dish. The salty salmon melts into the sweet pancake, and the egg ties it all together like a little edible party. Honestly, it makes a regular Tuesday feel like a birthday.
Sweet or Savory? Don’t Choose
Let’s be real: the hardest part of any brunch menu is choosing between sweet and savoury. At most places, you have to pick one and secretly regret it. Not here. The menu at Where The Pancakes Are is designed for people like us—the indecisive, the hungry, the want-it-all types.
My personal go-to is the Bacon and Maple Syrup stack. It’s the breakfast equivalent of wearing your favourite jumper on a cold day. The salty bacon cuts through the sweet syrup in a way that feels almost mischievous. I once ate this while reading a book, and I didn’t even look up until the plate was clean.

But if you want to share (which is a noble but difficult thing to do here), get the Loaded Pancake. It comes with roasted bananas, toasted pecans, and a drizzle of caramel. It’s like eating a warm dessert that tricks you into thinking it’s breakfast. Your friend will thank you, but you’ll probably want to keep it all for yourself.
