Elnecot
Available Monday 24th Feb – Sunday 1st March
Are you sweet or savoury or maybe you’re both? Or maybe you’re like me and just can’t decide. If you are, not to worry – Elnecot has got both. Choose from Creme Chantilly with caramelised plums, berry compote and hazelnuts or a Wild Mushroom Stuffed Pancake with Kick-Ass Cheddar bechamel sauce and slow-cooked tomato ragout.
Black Dog & Dog Bowl
Available only on Tuesday 25th
The American dream made UNLIMITED. You’ve got an hour, how many can you stomach? There’s a mix of sweet and savoury, included one actually stuffed with fried chicken. I’ve got my eye on the Chocolate and Blueberry one though, what a bloody combo!
Trove
Available only on Tuesday 25th
As with anything that comes from Trove, it is effortlessly beautiful and that definitely includes their pancakes. The special, on offer at both the Ancoats and Levy sites, is a caramelised whey pancake served with blood orange, honeycomb and thyme. They’ve aptly called the day, Trove Tuesday, and I’ll be honest with you even if these pancakes weren’t good (which they obv are), they’d get an inclusion just for that fantastic name.
Harvey Nichols
Available 20th – 25th February
All you can eat of a big old stack of fluffy American pancakes with glorious toppings, what’s better?! The answer might just be nothing. You get 1.5 hours to eat as many as you can with a choice of toppings including honeycomb, mixed fruits, chocolate-coated orange slices and roasted pecans. The Pancake Day Menu also includes a selection of homemade sauces included melted chocolate, salted caramel, ginger maple custard, lemon curd and Greek yoghurt.
Moose
All the time
Big old American pancakes are available at Moose all the time so it’s only right you take a visit on the day dedicated to them. Personally, I would go for the Moose Banana and Pecan Pancake Stack with bananas, chocolate hazelnut spread, maple pecans, Canadian maple syrup AND butter. But there’s plenty of others to choose from and who am I to tell you what to order?
19 Cafe Bar

For some big dirty brunch dishes, head to 19 Cafe Bar. They’re offering a Strawberry and Nutella special for pancake day served with white chocolate and chocolate sauce. They’ve also got a Biscoff Pancakeon the menu served with Biscoff sauce, banana and ice cream which I’ve just been shovelling into my gob like I’d never eaten before because it was that good.
