I've been to this restaurant twice and I very much recommend the whole Pannekoekschip experience to…read moreanybody who has not yet had the pleasure! (Many towns have them, so I'm not quite sure if it's a chain, or just a beloved Dutch institution, in the manner that American cities need drive-up diners.) So, as the name would suggest, it's literally a large historic boat, still in the water, that's been converted into a restaurant that sells pancakes. These aren't pancakes in the manner that Americans think of them. To us, they'd be more akin to crepes. They come in every manner of savory and sweet. The staff was happy to accommodate my request to enjoy a veggie crepe. The size of the crepe was huge! In a break with the norm for dining in the Netherlands, the staff didn't look at me as though I was insane for requesting the left-overs to-go. (A disgusting habit in the eyes of most Europeans...) In fact they even had pre-made to-go boxes. 'T Pannekoekschip has a children's play area, which is a nice touch for families dining here.

When we arrived and hiked upstairs, yes it's a hike straight up steep stairs, only to see the sign "fully booked" womp womp. HOWEVER, we asked if there was a waiting list because we didn't realize reservations are basically necessary. WE GOT LUCKY as a table was available because someone didn't show for their reservations!! We ordered the special of the day, blueberry & cream, and a bacon, cheese and apple pancake. Quickly cooked up and served and boy were they both delicious! I also didn't know it was a cash only establishment or debit card. Whom I presume was the owner was so sweet and again luckily our US credit card could be processed as debit. Saved me from having to do dish duty! Definitely a must do in Amsterdam but make a reservation and carry cash! Also to note, they only have 4 tables and if you're more than 5 minutes late for your reservation they may have given away your table!

That said . . . the food is delicious (from my last visit), and it's such a cute, unique little spot.

Definitely worth checking out if you get the chance . . . just skip it if you have a nut allergy!

This place has changed its name to The Pancake Club, but looks to be serving the same thing…read more Located right next to river and has seating outside under mostly shaded trees. We were there the day after Kings day and it was a lovely morning. The weather was cool, but not cold and we were able to enjoy the nice breeze and canal boats passing by. I was also able to connect to the WiFi from the Casino across the river. It was weak, but still worked. We were seated outside and waited almost 10 minutes before anyone came by to take our order for food and drinks. We ordered the banana crepe to share and I got a coffee while my wife ordered the pear juice. The pair juice comes from a bottle. The coffee was served in a small cup and was ok. I am used to drinking it with cream and sweetener. But Europeans don't have these items, so I just drank it with sugar. I think we waited almost 30 minutes before our food came out. Now, we only ordered crepes with bananas inside. Usually at the mall, it takes a few minutes to make crepes. I don't know how it took almost 30 minutes for them to make 1 item. Mind you, the place was not full when we came, so I don't understand how long we had to wait for our server to order our food and why it took so long for them to make our food. Once it finally came out, I thought the crepe was good, but not out of your mind fantastic. It's just basic tbh. Will I ever come back, probably not due to the wait time and the food wasn't all that great.

We went looking for a Pancake House in Haarlem first but with no luck. Then we took off heading to the shore and as we were driving we found this lovely place! There's plenty of parking available. We found a place to sit on the terrace. It took some time til someone came to take our order. We then got the bread as appetizer cos we were so hungry and a couple of pancakes. Good thing we got the bread. The staff was friendly but they were understaffed and we had to wait quite a bit. The food was good. Huge pancakes. Very filling. I would come back any day.

It took about 25 minutes to have our pager buzz during the lunchtime crunch. I had a lemon ice tea and my husband enjoyed his tropical IPA Hoop Kaper. They were thinner and less sweet than American pancakes. Satisfying though not super flavorful, added a little syrup from the table. Next time I would try a savory option because the ones at the table next to us looked good! Lots of table discs inside and outside as this is the restaurant on site (many other takeaway places with fries or ice cream or other snacks but not a meal).

They specialize in both sweet and savory Dutch pancakes, which are served in the traditional style--very flat and spread out across the plate. The process is straightforward: you order and pay at the register, then head to the counter to pick up your food once it is ready. During my visit, I tried the pancake with apricot jam and whipped cream (€12.95). It was a decent meal--certainly not bad, but also nothing particularly special. While the prices are a bit high for what you get, that is somewhat expected given its prime location in a major tourist hub. In addition to pancakes, they offer a variety of cakes, muffins, and a full selection of beverages to choose from. The restaurant is quite spacious, offering plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating depending on the weather. A nice perk for guests is that the restrooms are free for customers to use, which can be hard to come by here. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming, making it a pleasant and easy place to take a break after a day of exploring the windmills.
