About

Where The Pancakes Are brings American-style pancake house dining to Southwark's atmospheric Flat Iron Square. The all-day breakfast spot specialises in thick, fluffy pancakes served with an extensive menu of creative toppings, from classic maple syrup and crispy bacon to more adventurous combinations like pulled beef pastrami, kimchi, and caramelised miso pear. The menu successfully bridges sweet and savoury, with vegan batter options and build-your-own possibilities alongside signature stacks.

Tucked under a Victorian railway arch, the hip dining space combines exposed brick with colourful decor, creating a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that works equally well for morning coffee as weekend brunch. The quality ingredients and careful preparation show in the consistently light, golden pancakes, whilst the friendly team and table-service via QR code keep things efficient during busy periods. Fresh juices, speciality coffee, and creative cocktails complement the food offering.

Dogs are genuinely welcomed throughout the venue, both inside and in the outdoor seating area, with water bowls provided. The relaxed vibe and accessible location near Borough Market make it an excellent choice for breakfast or brunch with your four-legged friend, particularly during quieter weekday mornings when there's more space to settle in comfortably.
