You can imagine pancakes here taking the role of an international pizzeria. Amazing variety of delicious dishes. We've tried (and loved!) the Indonesian, Hungarian, Apple Grand Marnier, and French across two consecutive days, and will probably be returning for a third! It's probably better to think of these pancakes as thick crepes bursting with flavor. When paired with the friendly, helpful, and attentive staff, I could not recommend this restaurant enough! read more

The pancakes were dry and overdone and they were very expensive. We spent 30 euro on two pancakes. The good of that is that they are HUGE and loaded with toppings. We each had savory pancakes - one with chorizo, and I can't remember what was on the other one. Each table has a honey pot of maple syrup. We overheard the server testily inform another table who asked for tap water, "only if you order something". Okay, do tables of 6 sit down to order and then only order tap water? It seemed unnecessarily disrepectful to me, but maybe this location sees a lot of tourists/cheapskates. read more

Very good, but not the best Dutch pancakes we had during our eight days in Amsterdam. We all tried the savory pancakes, I would like to go back for a sweet pancake the next time I'm in town. We must have gone on an off day because it was empty. read more

If you are looking to taste a Dutch pancake, come here! It is located along the canal and has a cozy, old fashioned feel. The pancakes seemed a little pricey (about 9-13 euros each), but they were delicious and big enough to split amongst two people if you are not too hungry. My husband and I split the salami, cheese, and paprika (green pepper) pancake for about 10 euro, and this filled us up for lunch. We knew were were going to have a cheese tasting soon at Reypenaer anyhow! The two things I didn't like about this place were that the prices seemed a little high, and you must pay for a glass of water! They do not serve tap water and you must pay to have bottled water or another drink. If you haven't had a Dutch pancake, or are craving another one, definitely visit this restaurant and you will be satisfied! read more

Know for some of the best pancakes in Amsterdam we had to try it ! Huge tip would be to come early because it gets busy very fast. It opens at 9 and we were lucky that we got there right when it opened. By the time we left around 10:15, it was packed and people were lined up outside. I ordered the apple, cheese and bacon pancake because I have a think for sweet and salty mixes. It was very delicious and exactly what I expected. Which was a bit disappointing because as much as I enjoyed it, there was no wow factor. But don't get me wrong the pancake was amazing. They are huge however and I was the only one of my family that actually finished theirs. My favourite part was pouring the traditional syrup all over the pancake because it comes in a giant pot and you have to use a wooden spoon to drizzle it all over. The syrup itself isn't like regular pancake syrup or maple syrup but has a rather distinct taste. Sort of like molasses. All in all great place and you should really try it if you are going to Amsterdam and want pancakes. read more

I heard that pancakes are a *thing* in Amsterdam, so I asked around for some recommendations from my friends, and Pancake Bakery made the top of the list. And I can definitely see why. For those used to American style pancakes, these pancakes are a bit different. They're flatter and not as fluffy, but they're also huge and take up your entire plate. Their menu has a ton of pancakes (you can mix and match your own toppings, choose from their traditional ones, or their more exotic "international" menu). Their menu also has a mix of both sweet and savory combos. I asked our waitress for a sweet recommendation, and she said to go with the apple/cream/cinnamon ice cream pancake. I did, and it was really good. It tasted like an apple pie, without being overly sweet. Speaking of sweet, each table has a ton of different syrups. There's a huge vat of what tasted like molasses, and two bottles - one regular syrup, and one caramel. I liked the regular the best, as the other two were way too sweet for my liking. All in all, if you can swing by early to avoid lines, go to the Pancake Bakery! read more

Last and best meal in Amsterdam! We had a bunch of friends recommend this and I now understand why. My friend and I both got the bacon and cheese pancake and my other friend got nutella and banana. Both were delicious (we barely talked as we ate because it was so good). At first we were thinking it was a bit pricey but the portions are large (I couldn't finish mine no matter how badly I wanted to). Staff is SO friendly! Absolutely recommend! read more

My thoughts on pancakes have forever been changed. This gigantic banana Nutella Dutch pancake was the perfect thickness, made with a delicious batter. They gave me the Nutella so I could put it on top at my leisure. It was fabulous. I got a nice little Lavazza coffee (yummy) and it came with a little Stroopwafel! Also, the pancake was amazing, but save room for the poffertjes. Oh my gosh they were buttery and sugary and absolute perfection. read more

I expected a large selections of pancakes at a place called Pancake House but upon looking at their menu, there was a surprisingly long list of combinations to choose from. Many choices sounded interesting, including sweet and savory pancakes like apples and bacon, ginger pancake, or the more traditional banana pancake. Other combinations sounded more like pizza topping more than pancake topping, such as ham and cheese, or salami cheese and onions. We opted for two sweet ones and a sweet/savory one. 1. Pancake with hot cherries, vanilla ice cream, cherry liqueur, and whipped cream. This one turned out horrible due to the intense bitterness from the cherry liqueur. Without that bitter taste, the vanilla ice cream went well with the crepe. 2. Apples and banana pancake topped with cinnamon and powdered sugar. This one was an excellent pancake. It was not overly sweet. 3. Apples and bacon pancake. It was called bacon was it was really thin ham with apples cut into thin circles. This sounded like a strange combination but the sweetness and tartness of the apple actually went well with the slight saltiness of the ham. All of these pancakes were quite enormous, and they actually resemble large thick crepes rather than a traditional American pancake. I was disappointed that I did not find the traditional German pancake shaped like a huge bowl on the menu though. I heard this place is usually very crowded but we went at an odd time so we were able to get seated right away. read more

Let me start by saying that Dutch pancakes are a thing of beauty. With the gigantic diameter of a crepe, but with a more substantial, egg-ier, and fuller body, able to take savory add-ins similarly to an omelette, with a thin delicate light crisp around its circumference... It is a perfect anytime meal and bridges gaps from breakfast to lunch to dinner to dessert with ease. I don't want my mediocre review of this place to come across as a lack of appreciation for Dutch pancakes. That said, this place is incredibly touristy. It works if you're in search of a convenient place to eat within the vicinity of Anne Frank Huis (as we were), but if you're looking to try a delicious authentic Dutch pancake experience... look elsewhere. The pannekoeken (giant Dutch pancakes) themselves weren't terrible, but the poffertjes game was incredibly weak and disappointing. Poffertjes are a smaller Dutch pancake variation, similar to the US "silver dollar" variety in size, except poffertjes are more rounded in the center and have a deliciously light, fluffy, airy middle. Not these poffertjes. These were flat and (it's honestly making me sad to type this) greasy. Not good. We didn't even bother finishing them. It is a rushed dining experience as tourist appeal leaves a line forming outside. Service is also lacking. They actually gave me the wrong order, bringing me bacon-apple pannekoek when I had ordered apple-cinnamon, and didn't make any effort to rectify the mistake. There is no such thing, in my experience, as a truly bad Dutch pancake, but you can definitely do better. read more

I visit this place when i visit Amsterdam. Never disappoints me. It's a great place, the product that they offer is excellent and yummy, and the service is excellent (people, you are in different country with different customs, get over it!) The pancakes, both sweet and savory are delicious. There wasn't any waiting time and the attentive servers took the orders quickly and accurately. The decor of the place creates a very nice friendly atmosphere. The facilities are well kept. Nothing to complain about. read more

Fabulous restaurant down the street from Anne Frank House. Amazing selections of "pancakes" aka crepes. We shared a large chocolate-infused delicacy. It was so filling that 2 adults couldn't finish - thought I would have licked the platter clean. Crepes were right texture and thickness, ice cream sweet and creamy, chocolate sauce thick enough to not be diluted by the warmth of the crepe. Amazing place. Go there. read more

I've been here every trip to Amsterdam I've taken. And this was the first time I did a little research. I passed about 4 other pancake places. None of them have gluten free pancakes available. None of them have the selection that this place has. None of them has this location. This is the original. This is the best. I went by myself. Crazy, I know. But nice to be able to eat whatever I want. I had 2, yes 2 pancakes. I had the veggie masai one. Good. Better with syrup (it's not maple syrup, and it just added a little moisture). And then I got creative and asked for a bacon nutella pancake, which I then added the caramel syrup to. (see photos of before and after). Oh yeah! I just beamed eating it thinking, "my pancake's better than your pancake." I don't know what they replaced the regular flour with...I'm thinking crack? Because my gluten free pancakes were awesome and addicting. Glad I'm not in Amsterdam every day... read more

You must go here! I went twice in my two-day trip to Amsterdam. The first day I got the apple and bacon pancake which was phenomenal for around 12 Euros! The next day I got the Canadian which consisted of mushrooms, onions, cheese, ham, and bacon for around 13 Euros. They have many options for sweet and savory such as nutella and banana crepes. I also got a hot chocolate for 2 Euros which was great. If these prices seem expensive don't fret, food is expensive in Amsterdam and these are the usual prices you will be seeing. They were very accommodating here. Each time I was with a group of 10, and they seated us right away with no problem. The waiters were very nice and even let us open a bottle of wine that we had brought with no extra charge (crazy to encounter in Europe). I would recommend the pea soup and the mushroom soup. Pea soup is one of Amsterdam's finest foods and it tasted delicious here! read more

There are a few crepes in life that are expertly crafted with pure deliciousness and my experience with the cheese and chorizo savoury crepe and the sweet winter special crepe exceeded those expectations. One crepe is enough to feed one normal sized human, but seeing as I wanted to taste both a savoury and a sweet crepe, I split both with my sister. And our tummies were quite satisfied. I love crepes, but these take scrumptiousness to a whole new level! Must try!! (Ps: what they mean by pancake is really a big crepe.... Don't be fooled into thinking that it's your typical fluffy American pancake like my culturally inept cousins and sister. Love them.) (I'm still trying to figure out if the service is just typical of this part of the world. It wasn't bad, but if you are used to people whose entire paycheck is based off tips, you might not find the pancake bakery service THE best. Again it's not bad, just relatively speaking it could have been a tiny bit better. But don't let this bias comment detour you from quality crepes!!!) read more

Good local breakfast place. Had a nice selection of omelettes, breakfast items and especially local style pancakes (thin, huge crepe-like pancakes). I had a savory pancake with ham, cheese and mushrooms cooked into the pancake. Very good! Not cheap but very large portion and well prepared. My husband had the Hawaiian pancake with bananas, pineapple, lots of whip cream and vanilla ice cream. Very tasty. read more

Hands down the best pancake place I've ever been to. The menu displays a wide variety of different kinds of pancakes from all over the world; some sweet and some more "meal" like. Being in Ansterdam and never having tried Dutch pancakes before, the choice was simple. My huge pancake with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, ice cream and peaches arrived pretty fast and it was excellent. There isn't much more to say than to advice everyone to go here if they get the chance. The only downside was the wait for a table which was quite long. However, that only proves the popularity of this place. read more

Note: this is NOT your average crepe shack. In fact, I wouldn't describe it as crepes at all. This is a different breed: the Dutch Pancake. This is an easy-to-miss place, tucked along a loooong road (the same as the Anne Frank house, FYI -- tourist dining opportunity!). There's a lone dangling sign, so keep your eyes up. I like this most for lunch, and my official pancake recommendation is the bacon apple cheese -- but I added onions. It's PERFECTION! Also, it's huge. Yeah, don't plan on finishing this by yourself in one sitting. In fact, try splitting one with a moderately-hungry friend. The beer selection is limited. It includes Palm and Witbier, sooo you can take that how you'd like. The champagne splits are a nice complement that I'd recommend over beer as a pairing. But you don't come to a place called The Pancake Bakery for the beverages! read more

YUMMMM. We definitely had to try pancakes while in Amsterdam, so at the recommendation of our hotel concierge, we visited the Pancake Bakery and loved it. We split 3 pancakes family style, chosen off their specialties list. these had stars next to them indicating that they were popular: 1. tomatoes, onions, mushrooms - this is the only pancake that we did not love. it was rather on the plain side. could definitely use a spicy kick maybe with some peppers or something. 2. chicken, cheese, pineapple - definitely an interesting combination but FABULOUS. 3. dutch apple pancake with cinnamon ice cream, cinnamon liqueur, and powdered sugar - YUM YUM YUM. i don't have anything else to say lol we were able to snag a table outside right by the canal as the sun was setting. what a lovely view and the perfect end to a busy day. this is very close to the anne frank museum so we were able to stop by after our museum visit. my only complaint is that in order to get tap water, you have to order individual drinks first. a bit of a money scam, but oh well. came out to be about $15 per person (for a pancake and drink each). not cheap but also not crazy expensive. definitely worth a visit :) read more

This place has really good food! I ate here three times and I was pleased with the quality of the food every time. One thing I was dissappointed about was the fact that I ordered a stroofwafel from their "specials" menu twice and they told me they didn't have them. I think they no longer had that special and hadn't updated their menu. The restaurant's music choice was interesting, but not in a bad way. They played lots of 90's R&B and some Michael Jackson for good measure. read more

The savory pancakes and the omelette we ordered was not something out of this world as the reviews suggested. We left half of our food. The omelette was over cooked and the taste of the savory pancake left an aftertaste in the mouth. Not at all recommended. The only bright side was the sweet pancake for my child, hence one star. One of the waitress was very cold towards us as she was going around asking everyone on the table how the food was except us since we're brown but we didn't really care. read more

These pancakes are a little more expensive than other pancake places in Amsterdam but there are so many flavors and they are all so delicious it is totally worth it. I probably tried 5 kinds of pancakes and preferred the sweet ones. Try the seasonal specials. By the way, they are now open earlier for breakfast. read more

The only reason we didn't go twice was because we didn't want to risk ruining perfection! Yes, yes, pancakes are the touristy thing to do in Amsterdam, but we saw many locals there as well! Customer service was great, and our server was quick and attentive. I recommend the bacon, cheese, and pineapple for a savory treat (The bacon was much thicker, more like ham). The Brazilian pancake truly has no comparison...rich walnut ice cream, sugared almonds fried into the cake, amaretto sauce, whipped cream, and mocha drizzle. Honestly, who could top that??? If we ever make it back, I will be sure to return! read more

Definitely a must-try spot when in Amsterdam. For us Americans we'd consider the Dutch pancake more like a thick crepe. But, don't let this fool you because this place served very good pancakes. The savory one we had that I totally enjoyed is the one with bacon, cheese, and mushrooms. Definitely hours the spot if you're looking for something savory. We tried the Dutch pancake to be, well, Dutch. It's on the sweet side with pieces of chocolate stroopwafel (omg to die for!), huge fluffs of whipped cream, and two heaping scoops of cinnamon ice cream. It's very sweet, and all the pancakes are huge portions, so think about splitting with someone. Order a cup of coffee, it goes well with the sweet pancakes after the meal. The staff are very friendly and attentive. They speak English so it's a great experience for tourists who might be doubting eating out for lack of communication. The staff are locals so they have great tips and suggestions on what to eat and see around Amsterdam. read more

All sorts of pancakes from savory to sweet! I've never had a bad one here. Sometimes this can be be crowded with tourists from the Anne Frank house. Sometimes it can seem to be full of children (good or bad depending....) but I've always had good pancakes here. It's a great place to take visiters ... especially if they have kids. I really meant to take photos of the pancakes we ordered. They looked terrific but as soon as they arrived I forgot about the photos and by the the time I thought about it again they were gone! Really. So next time I go... and I will go again, I'll try to get a nice photo. read more

Had to of course try this place while visiting Amsterdam. Serving sweet and savory Dutch pancakes, that are seriously bigger than your head! I had a tough time trying to pick out just what kind I wanted. There are so many options it made it extremely difficult to narrow it down. I ended up going pretty simple. I wanted something savory so I just went for the Ham and Cheese. Around €9. When it came it was exactly that. It definitely needed some hot sauce or sour cream or any type of dipping sauce. Although it was good. As my beverage I ordered some Baileys, which was almost €5. The prices were a but steep, but it's a novelty place so they can charge that. The staff was a little inattentive but didn't really bother me much. It was crowded, but we beat the rush and were seated right away. I would for sure visit again and would definitely go all out and get a sweet one! P.S. Restrooms are upstairs, be careful on the stairs! So steep and narrow! read more

I've been to Amsterdam 5 times and The Pancake Bakery is always one of my top food destinations. The menu is expansive and there is something for everyone. You can enjoy a sweet or savory pancake (or both)!! My favorite pancake is the French (with melted goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, thyme, pine nuts and honey). Absolutely delicious. Not only is the food spectacular, but the scenery is as well. The restaurant is located along the Prisengracht, one of Amsterdam's most beautiful canals, so I recommend sitting outside and enjoying the view. Disclaimer: do NOT expect pancakes, these are more like crepes and 100X more delicious. read more

My boyfriend and I stopped to eat here one morning. We ordered a savory and a sweet specialty pancake. We had, The Dutch and The French. They were both exquisite. I was afraid that that Dutch would be overly sweet but it was just the right amount of richness and sweetness, it was never overbearing. And for the savory one I was afraid that the honey would add a sweetness to it but all the flavors went together so nicely it all just melted in your mouth. The location itself is small and dimly lit, we did have to wait about 20 minutes to be seated but trust me when I saw this is a must try. read more

Close walk from Anne Frank house. Best Dutch pancakes I had in my visit to Amsterdam. Lots of variations of sweet and savory. I favor thier international styled pancakes with influences from Canada, England, France , America , Mexico and others in the ingredients on top of the pancake. My friend loves the Greek one which is basically a gyro. A pancake gyro! I got the French which has a perfect combo of sweet and savory with pine nuts, honey, goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes. Delicious. I also got cinnamon and walnut ice cream for desert and a shot of espresso. The biscuit cookies they give you with coffee and tea are also nice and are chewy and have caramel in the center. A really nice place to grab some Dutch pancakes with friends or tour group. Free postcards on second level by bathroom and they serve alcohol. read more

Food was great and service was friendly. We order salmon pancake and omelette with bacon and chase it was perfect.

LOVE the thin crepe-style savory pancakes. All of the international pancakes looked really tasty so we had a hard time deciding. Ended up with the Indonesian and the Greenlandic. I tried the greenlandic and it was fantastic! The pforretjes with chocolate sauce were small doughnuts layered in powdered sugar and chocolate drizzle and a great, diabetic end to the meal (although they came out first, which was slightly weird). Service was decently quick and the prices are average (€15.50 for a savory pancake - but they are HUGE so make sure to share!). read more
