Fellow CTX alumni here!! JP's is always my go-to spot for dessert! Love everything about this small business!

Do yourself a favor and get the classic if it's your first time. It's a classic for a reason and I feel like it truly is mind blowing. White chocolate chips with raspberry glaze and fresh raspberries. This place is so so yummy! After that you should branch out to others ;) You'll be addicted. read more

I am abnormally in love with pancakes. I could eat a version of them with most meals and do not understand why it is so difficult to find decent ones. So, when I learned of JP's through Yelp research, I was stoked! And when I saw the beautifully turquoise beacon of a truck parked at Zilker Park during the holiday festivities, I quite literally squealed like a child and ran gleefully to place my order. The menu is smaller than I had seen online, and pumpkin spice doesn't appeal to me, so I grabbed a chocolate chip pancake in a cup, a kolache pancake, and a cup of hot chocolate. I settled under the holiday lights and dug in. The hot chocolate tasted like everyone else's: previously powdered and perfectly acceptable. The kolache was a large sausage and a pancake/kolache bread batter hybrid rolled thin to look like a pancake with a thin layer of yellow cheese melted in between to glue them together. The bread was pancake adjacent and a little stale. It is served with syrup- no, thank you. Speaking of syrup, i should mention that while I love pancakes, I am very anti processed, maple-flavored goo. Unfortunately, the chocolate chip pancake had that layered in somewhere. I don't know if it was in the batter, the whipped cream, or its own sticky layer (if I had to wager, I'm guessing it was in all of it), but it overwhelmed the dish. I tried to eat it. It was too sticky and filled with saccharine sadness. The pancakes felt soggy, yet the chocolate chips mostly weren't even melted. It was odd. I decided to try to take it all home and give it a whirl the next day when I could give it a better shot or someone else at home would be able to give me a different perspective. I asked the nice people working the truck if they had anything I could use to take the leftover home. They don't do Togo. I sled if I could have another cup with a lid and she said no because it is careful accounting that goes into the cups and she wouldn't sell me an empty cup either, so if I couldn't finish it I should probably just throw it away. It was just so... derisive. So, I feel 3 stars is generous because some people like stale pancakes soaked in sugar. I'm sad I'm still on the hunt for a pancake Mecca on the go. But there are good sit down pancakes in this town! Savory ones, too! (they're just not here) read more

I love this concept! Warm pancakes and ice cream with toppings! We got a peach flavored one to share and it was all we needed after dinner to end the day happy. Definitely looking forward to coming back to try other flavors. Unfortunately only 3 were available at the time we visited... The bacon boy looked good.. This location is in a food truck park with plenty of options for dinner, pre-dessert, if desired. Also, in the summer they have misters to help cool the seating area off, which was a relief. Overall highly recommended for a dessert that's slightly different from the usual. read more

JP's Pancake Company - Peach! - Pancakes Near Me - Austin, Texas

They have specialty flavors but I decided to just stick with the classic to see what they were all about. It came with white chocolate chip pancakes topped with raspberry syrup, fresh raspberries, and whipped cream. To be honest, I'm not a HUGE raspberry girl BUT THESE PANCAKES ABSOLUTELY CHANGED ME FOREVER. They were ridiculous. It came out super warm so the white chocolate was nice and oozy. The raspberry syrup was more of a raspberry cream type of sauce and it was so delicious. The whipped cream and fresh raspberries just added sweetness and tartness. It was all so amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed these pancakes. 5 chefs kisses for sure ‍ read more

JP's Pancake Company is located in a circle of food trucks and that truly makes the experience. The staff are UT students so that was great to see. My friend and I split the Hayley and absolutely loved how the dessert wasn't overly sweet and balanced out. They were also giving out free hot chocolate that day which was a bonus- definitely would recommend! read more

Pau is clutch. Pancakes were good munchies and music was fire. Pull up Customer service was also really good read more

This is a cute idea: An aqua-colored and sunny food truck jams a whole pancake into a two scoop ice cream cup and then tops it with your choice of syrups, caramels, fruits, cream, and more. Another Yelper enticed me with their description of a deliciously soaked pancake but because it was pushed in, I found it to be somewhat rubbery and impermeable covered by a gloppy layer of goodies. My 6 and 4 year old companions were disappointed, as well, and all three of us threw out more than half of our meals. read more

It's a late night dessert place. They only open at night so it's called pancake company but let's be clear it's not made for breakfast. For three small pieces of pancakes, it's a bit pricy. In terms of taste, pick anything with white chocolate pancakes, they are so tasty. They have build your own options. I just picked a menu item, then changed one ingredient. I think it's a good way to avoid weird combinations but still try to appeal to my taste. People working there are super friendly. They were actually training one lady, so I got my order a bit slow. But I watched the entire procedure preparing my order. It was fun! read more

JP's Pancake Company - White chocolate pancakes with PB, Nutella, honey, and banana. - Pancakes Near Me - Austin, Texas

First time going....didn't know what to expect, Was very good (white chocolate pancakes). Have to go back!

Today I got the opportunity to have some of JPs pancakes! The owner and operator of the truck makes the pancakes from scratch. I ordered three items from the truck which were the Texas Bowl, White Chocolate Chip Raspberry pancakes and the Red Velvet pancakes (all at $6.00 each). The White Chocolate Chip Raspberry pancakes were sweet with hints of tart raspberry. This pancake serves well as a dessert. The Red Velvet pancakes tasted as the name states. The Red Velvet was moist and simply melted into itself. The Texas bowl was more of a breakfast scramble. It had bacon, eggs, potatoes and cheese mixed tightly into a cup. This was by far the most filling of the three ordered. The wait for the orders were well worth it. This truck is a must try! read more

One of the most unique and best tasting desserts I've ever had. Absolutely loved it. A bit on the pricier side for the amount, but understandable. read more

Used to be so good with a big variety of things to choose from but now it's a limited menu, and the options aren't good. I was excited to come back after they've been closed for a month, because I used to come here every weekend but now I'm definitely not going to be returning until things get back to how they used to. When you start a business with something that caused it to become so big, don't change it, simple as that. read more

Thankfully got a pic before finishing it 30 seconds later! The bacon boy was incredible and i can't speak highly enough of the quality of the ingredients and pancakes!

Pure awesomeness!! Drove by the location on Hwy71 and did a quick U Turn to check out the eye catching blue trailer. Each in my family ordered a different cup- I had the Sunday morning, my wife had the 2Pak, and my daughter had the Keyshia Cole. Each was was an explosion of flavor and sweet, sticky, goodness. I added bacon to my cup and the salty really set off the sweet. Their staff was courteous, polite, and all around helpful. Now that we know that it is here, it will be a regular stop when we are in the area. I highly recommend this place- it was a great experience. read more

Pancakes are some of my favorite foods so I was so down to try this! I got the classic order of pancakes and almost immediately lost the top with all my whipped cream and raspberries because there was so much; very sad! But the rest that I did get to eat was delicious, super sweet which I liked and warm! A really good and different kind of sweet fix overall, I definitely wanna go back to try some other flavors! read more

I ordered the The Classic - white chocolate chip pancakes, raspberry syrup, raspberries, and I substituted the whipped cream with Nutella because I'm not a fan on whipped cream. It was delicious, and SUPER sweet! They make the food to order, so it does take a little bit, but you can definitely taste the difference. The syrup is really unique and doesn't taste store-bought, and the pancakes were very fluffy and sweet with the white chocolate chips in there (the chips were abundant!). It was great with the Nutella as well. The cup is pretty pricey, which is why I'm not giving four stars. You can get 2 large pancakes for just a little more money at Kerbey Lane, but if you're really craving some specialized, gourmet, sweeter & and more delicate treat with a nice, cute and outdoor atmosphere, then come here. It's not shareable because you can gobble this up quickly! read more

Got this on a whim while waiting for my noodles at Julie's Noodles, and I must say these are one of the best pancakes I've ever had. I was very surprised at how good they were and the presentation. I ordered the strawberry banana pancakes and to my surprise they were served in a cup. We got an extra stack for a little more. The pancakes were very fluffy and flavorful. It had syrup whip cream, and strawberry and bananas on the top. It was simple yet so complex. JP was extremely friendly and explained the menu to us. Eating the pancake like a cake was certainly the right move. You got to taste everything with a spoonful of sweet goodness. I'll be back for the build your own next time. read more

I definitely can see why this place has 5 stars. Great portion size for the pancakes and the hot chocolate hits different especially when it's cold. The food came out super quick as well and I would recommend going here when you have those late night cravings. read more

Oh. my. This is out of the world! JP's makes something you'll never find elsewhere, which is what I was looking for. However, FYI-this is NOT something you can take "to go"easily. JP's is a tiny food truck in a food truck yard near UT's. Parking is horrendous, but it's worth it. There are also other assorted food trucks in the same lot, and they all looked pretty appealing. So back to JP's. Whatever you order, you get a few tiny pancakes in an ice cream cup, layered with goodies and topped with whipped cream. I had the Bacon Boy, which was layered with bacon, bananas and nutella. My BF had the blueberry something. Both were amazing!!!! This is another black-owned business in Austin.. and a must do, if you like sweets!! read more

One of my favorite food trucks in all of west campus-- quality of the pancakes are great and there's nothing quite like it. Owner of the food truck is super nice and he definitely knows what he's doing with these pancakes! I tried the Blueberry flavored pancakes and thoroughly enjoyed. Service: Great! Served by two workers, Alex and Sarah and they were super nice and friendly. Atmosphere: Situated in the food truck park in west campus, JP's is blasting awesome music and makes you feel right at home. Can't wait to come back! read more

What a fun way to jazz up pancakes! This place was great and JP was very nice and gave us some suggestions and recommendations. Great find!

I came to the food truck park with a group of friends so we could try JP's, and I'm so glad we did! The park itself is one of the better ones I've seen. Good food options, lots of tables and plenty that fit a larger group too. But on to the pancakes...just go. Do yourself a favor and go get delicious pancakes. Our group tried The Hayley and the Oreo and both were so good! I wish all pancakes tasted like that. And were topped with chocolate. JP is also super cool and we enjoyed talking to him. This is such a cool dessert place for Austin to have! read more

Unbelievably good. IDK how they did it, but this was honestly the best pancake ever. Also, serving in a small cup is genius. That way the pancake is always in the syrup, as oppose to escaping all over the plate. read more

honestly nothing special for how much it costs. i feel like you could get more than this for $8 in terms of pancakes. usually they add whipped cream on top for free but it was a bummer that they didnt add it for my to go order. i dont have a sweet tooth so i may be biased but i didnt find this place amazing. read more

Went to JPs and blew my mind! If your not eating pancakes you should be.... seriously go there now!

Love this place it has been here since my sophomore year of college and this will be what I miss the most when I move out of west campus.

Really tasty and you can tell it's made with care! There's something really delicious about the pancake batter mix paired with the toppings. I recommend stopping by :) read more

Austin has an excellent food scene, but since I've lived here, I have found the desserts are lacking outside of ice cream. So we decided to try JP's, and it's one of the most satisfying desserts I've had. I tried the original, and it came out hot, with fresh whipped cream and ripest raspberries you could ever expect. My girlfriend got the Bacon Boy special, with peanut butter and nutella, and it was slightly more savory but just as delicious. We also tried a special item that was a sort of strawberry-lemonade and almond milk concoction. It might sound adventurous, but it was delicious and refreshing in the heat. We already talked about when we'll be back next, and we're looking forward to it. Besides the delicious food, the service was quick and friendly. read more

JP's hits the spot! The employees have always been very kind and very accommodating with any changes / toppings I request for my pancakes. It is a bit pricey for the area (student living), but nice to visit every once and a while. read more

Cute food truck in west campus! Their white chocolate pancakes are great and their raspberry lemonade is very refreshing. This area is super convenient to walk to if you live in west campus and there's some street parking in the area as well. Lots of tables and other food trucks to pick from in this area. There's definitely something in this area for everyone! read more

Delicious desert snack! Love the 1st street location and easy parking to get to let alone help people find.
