My Old Dutch

This is an old favourite of mine - it’s not a creperie in the French sense, they treat their pancakes more like a pizza: big pancake base served flat with a wide choice of different toppings. I’m always surprised at how filling the pancakes are, they really are huge. They have also added a range of delicious milkshakes to the menu. Great every time and I can’t wait for my next visit! The Monday Madness offer (any pancake for £5) is great and popular, too, so it’s one of the few places I know that has a buzzy atmosphere on a Monday.

If your a pancake enthusiast this is the place to go. The menu is very inspiring, i didnt think it was possible to get a better vaiation than lemon on sugar on my pancakes until i went to my old dutch. However it does take time for your pancake to be made and it seems to me that their waiting staff do tend to have their hands full a lot of the time. Having saying that they do have great offers such as monday madness where all pancakes on the menu are for a fiver, which in some cases is nearly half price. This is well worth your money as i have never been able to finish my pancakes, not because theyre not tasty but because of their humongous size which seems to fill their wooden tables and my appetite to say the least. Defintly a great family place to go and especially on mondays!

My children love eating at My Old Dutch. The menu is full of savoury pancake choices, but my lot usually go for something sweet, like maple syrup and banana. The plates are huge and the pancakes cover the whole plate, so you feel totally stuffed by the time you've finished. I wouldn't say it's value for money though, I'm usually quite shocked at the size of the bill.
