Where to go for the best pancakes in Liverpool

The mighty Moose Coffee has three different locations across Liverpool, that’s how popular this place is! We cannot stress to you enough about how good the food is here and the portions are HUGE! The Moose Stacks are £12.50 but are not your ordinary pancakes. You can choose from apple and homemade salted caramel, granola and chocolate peanut butter, and banana and pecan, which all include three stacks of pancakes with a smothering of Canadian maple syrup and butter.

Moose also offers its legendary icing sugar-dusted American-style pancakes, which of course come in stacks of three for £9. For sweet lovers, you have the choice of either Canadian maple syrup and butter, ice cream or chocolate and hazelnut spread. If you can’t go without bacon, you can add four slices, which taste like heaven with sweet syrup.

The pancake stack at The Brunch Club is £10.95, however, we can safely say, The Brunch Club has the most decadent and delicious toppings in an equally decadent atmosphere. You can choose up to three toppings to create your perfect pancake: Biscoff spread, Biscoff crumbs (our personal fave), banana, Nutella, Oreo salt, butterscotch sauce, and peanut butter. If you’re into fruit on your pancakes, you can choose from banana, blueberries, or strawberries and finally, if you’re a savoury pancake person and need your protein fix in the morning, you can choose from bacon or sausage to top it all off.

Leaf is a resident of the iconic Bold Street. Establishing itself in 2007 as a small tea shop run by friends in a Liverpool city centre gallery, in the autumn of 2010, LEAF moved to a truly magnificent building on Bold Street. This is a venue passionate about tea, stocking 60 rare loose leaf teas from across the globe! It’s even won Great Taste Awards for several of its blends. What’s more comforting than a hot cup of tea and some sweet treats? This is where the pancakes come in. You can indulge in a stack of three American-style pancakes with maple syrup and thick Greek yoghurt with blueberry compote for £11.95.

Botanico on the Allerton Road is an exciting restaurant that offers many things; from wood fired pizza to a tearoom with homemade baked goods and bistro and brunch menus. The latter is very extensive, with lots of benedicts and brunch favourites. But for those of you looking for that sweet treat, you’re in luck because Botanico’s pancake stacks all come loaded with maple syrup. You then get to choose from Nutella and strawberries, streaky bacon, forest fruits and lemon creme fraiche, or our favourite – orange and honeycomb! 

As part of the Ropewalks Bar and Kitchen breakfast menu, you can get an ALL YOU CAN EAT continental breakfast for £7.99. Yes please. You can get all of this: Bakery croissant, pain au chocolat, blueberry muffin, crumpets AND American-style buttermilk pancakes. It also offers a large selection of spreads, fruit and preserves so you can spice up your pancakes however you like! You can even add sausages and bacon, and make it a super-savoury pancake stack. With the Ropewalks being situated a stone’s throw from Liverpool One’s Nation Express bus station, if you’re looking for a place to carb-load before your journey home, this is your place. A lot of people have the same idea though, so make sure you book beforehand so you’re not left with your head out of the window on your way home.

The Quarter may be known for its delicious pizza and pasta, however it also serves some excellent pancakes that are a favourite amongst the breakfast crowd. The eatery’s Quarter pancakes come with a fruity combination of berry compote, honey and yoghurt, which offers just the right amount of sweetness, without the sickly feeling. You can enjoy pancakes at The Quarter until 12pm, so make sure you are up bright and early to avoid missing out. For weekend brunch, you should definitely make a reservation to avoid disappointment, or you can tuck into your pancakes on The Quarter’s quaint terrace, where you can enjoy the bustling Liverpool scenery.

This Liverpool institution was established in 1974, serving up a delicious menu for the past four decades and don’t worry, fluffy buttermilk pancakes are a staple on the menu! Toppings include: mixed fruit, bacon and maple syrup, and sugar and lemon. This little place is styled as a European bohemian café and it is a hub in Liverpool for creative residents like performers, singers, actors and artists.

Coffee And Fandisha is situated in the creative Baltic triangle and it’s a specialty coffee shop. It’s also a brilliant place to stop by and enjoy some pancakes whilst exploring the area. These guys offer classic American-style pancakes that you just can’t beat. It’s also the perfect spot to grab coffee and lunch. The idea of this little coffee shop came from the traditional ceremony of traditional Ethiopian coffee, where coffee is served with for example, popcorn and other little pieces. Another quirky thing that Coffee And Fandisha offers is the yellow wall, where local creatives can exhibit their innovative artwork. So you can enjoy pancakes and admire artwork.
