Where to get Pancakes in London this weekend

Traditionally this is the day when us Brits raid the cupboards and rustle up some delicious stacks to purge ourselves before forty days of pretending to fast/ restrict yourself/ grow as a person/ have basic self-discipline etc.  

But, before you succumb to Catholic guilt (or just old-fashioned peer pressure), it’s probably best to stock up on delicious, fluffy stacks of pancakes at these Breakfast and Brunch spots across London, who have perfected the art of how to master this iconic favourite. 

1. The Breakfast Club, Battersea

The Breakfast Club have been ‘taking care of breakfast since 2005’ and show no sign of slowing down, with their iconic yellow gaffs popping up everywhere across the capital. Opt for the Battersea branch to have fluffy pancakes in a cute blend of 50's kitsch and 80's laundrette.
