Coming to the Rocks is not complete without going to Pancakes on the Rocks. A very popular spot. We only had to wait 5 minutes for a table which is pretty good during the VIVID festival. The food is amazing and the prices are very good for this area. There’s lift access for people with mobility issues. Have wanted to come for years, definitely worth it.

Best pancake place! The flavours were really unique - my fave was lemon meringue 🍋, but apple crumble 🍎 and chocolate/peanut butter 🥜 were great also.

Pancakes themselves were large and fluff!

Also had the tandoori chicken pizza. Not too bad, but the chicken was a bit dry.

Nice airy bright atmosphere with high ceiling and exposed beams. Industrial yet warm setting dinner.

Pancake was nice and fluffy. The egg bacon hashbrown dish was okay. The hashbrown just didn't look or taste right. Almost felt like either the potato was overly soaked in water and then frozen? Didn't have the crunch texture. Other than that, the price point is excellent considering this place is located in the heart of the Rocks.

Super affordable pancakes that were really delicious. Generous portions as well with a really nice ambience. Thought this would have been a tourist trap because of its location but it’s not at all.

honestly one my favourite places in Sydney

Pancakes on the Rocks blew my mind! We shared the savory Pancake Up North, a refreshing Garden Salad, a delightful fresh mushroom crepe, and a delicious eggplant pizza - everything was bursting with flavor. The restaurant itself has a wonderful atmosphere, and the service was speedy despite being busy. The caramel milkshake was the perfect sweet ending. I can't recommend this place enough - it's a must-try!

We visited Pancakes On The Rocks January 2024. It’s located in the beautiful and oldest part of Sydney called The Rocks. The restaurant is located upstairs, not too hard for those with bad knees, and when you arrive at the top, the place is wide open and inviting. It smells so good and fresh. It was bright against the brown wooden booths and tables/chairs. The floor as well as the booth were clean. Even the bathroom was clean and inviting! Upon entering, we were promptly greeted and seated. The waitstaff doesn’t take your order, you have to scan the QR code. It was very easy to place our order. Our ordered was quickly delivered by the waitstaff. I ordered the pancakes, bacon, and eggs. Everything was cooked to perfection! The pancakes were dense but not dry. They were flavorful and delicious. The bacon was chard but the parts that weren’t were good and tasty. My eggs were scrambled exactly as I like them. I highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a hearty, delicious, and memorable breakfast!! In fact, the food smelled so good, I started eating and then realized I didn’t take a picture… It was that delicious!!

Used to be a busy restaurant where you will have to wait an hour if you didn't book a table.
Now I don't have to book and get a table right away.
The food is not as good as before.
Pancakes will make you very thirsty.
There are new odd menu as well.
Beef rib racks are not the same as before.
Maybe it's because there are better restaurants nowadays.
