Down a dodgy little alley off a dodgy night stretch is the aptly named and wonderfully quaint Original Pancake Kitchen. My Dad tells me that it hasn't changed in the last 40 years but why should it? It serves a large variety of sweet or savoury pancakes in a flash and they are delicious! The staff are kind and welcoming.... More

This place is my husband's favourite, it having been where he went for special meals while a kid and living in Adelaide.

Nothing better than a night out with friends and finishing off with some pancakes! Don't expect friendly wait staff in those hours.. but in saying that I'm sure they put up with a lot! More
