Like the monthly choice of flavor coffee my husband loves it. Wish I would see more customers it's a great place only open till 3-4pm maybe they need to extend hours. ”
“ We ordering food from Pancake Caffe for our business meetings when we meeting customers and every time someone would ask. Where did you get this food? It is amazing. Thank you Pancake Caffe, you make us look good. ”

“ 11/21/23 Update, I was my way to a group class and got hungry, so I swung in to see if I could get something small to go? Ended up with a bagel and cream cheese. The hostess was kind enough to put the cream cheese on my bagel and wrap it to go. Old review: First time here, nice clean place with friendly waitress. Food was outstanding! This would be a place I would take out of town guests to eat. Try the German Pancake or the veggie omelette, well worth the money. ”
