My Old Dutch pancake house was established in 1958 and now has locations in Holborn, Chelsea and Kensington. Known for their menu, they provide an array of sweet and savoury pancake options, alongside traditional Dutch starters and desserts. With this is mind, it makes sense why they take no bookings on Pancake Day and expect queues out the door. So go with your appetite ready, it will definitely be worth the wait! If you can't wait until Tuesday, or want pancakes all year round they have an offer of 'Monday Madness' where you can get pancakes for £5.95 and for this month only, you can 20% off the bill Tuesday to Friday when you use the secret code word: Pancake Power.
