Our Guide to the Best Pancakes in Perth

A stack of fluffy pancakes is the ultimate brunch treat but where can you find the best pancakes in Perth? We’ve hunted high and low for Perth’s most extravagant pancakes that will be sure to satisfy your sweetest cravings. Whether they’re topped with meringue, infused with Biscoff, or smothered with fruit there’s a stack of pancakes sure to please everyone!

Here are a few of our favourite cafes that are serving up innovative pancakes in Perth:

The Little Banksia – Kensington

This gem of a cafe tucked down a suburban street in Kensington features seasonal and locally inspired dishes. With sweet and savoury delights baked daily, a creative all-day menu and Leftfield Coffee served, you know that a good brunch is guaranteed.⁠ For those sweet cravings, their buttermilk pancakes with seasonal toppings are truly delicious. On our last visit, the pancakes were served with a berry compote, Italian meringue, tangy passionfruit curd, vanilla creme fraiche, fresh berries and a crunch of pistachio praline. We recommend booking, especially on weekends, as they are always busy – evidence of their popularity!

Laika Coffee – Lathlain

If you’re chasing one of Perth’s most indulgent pancake experiences, Laika Coffee delivers in a big way. Their weekend-only stacks are ultra light and fluffy, piled high with creative toppings ranging from playful sweet options like passionfruit curd with meringue and fairy floss to bold savoury combos like Korean fried chicken with kimchi butter or pork belly bacon with egg and maple. Portions are generous (sharing is wise, but not guaranteed), and you can level up with extras like soft serve or their house-made Cholula hollandaise. Backed by great coffee, a full brunch menu and a relaxed indoor-outdoor setting, Laika remains a standout suburban spot. The Pop-up Pancake Bar doesn’t operate all year round – so jump on it while you can!

Corner 33 Cafe – South Perth

For a pancake stack that leans a little different (in the best way), Corner 33 Cafe has quickly made a name for itself since opening in late 2025. Their signature buttermilk pancakes are thick, fluffy and perfectly golden, served with fresh berries, whipped butter and generously drizzled in a soy-spiked maple honey syrup that adds a subtle savoury edge to every bite. It’s a clever nod to the café’s Japanese influences, which run throughout the menu—from avocado toast with yuzu miso glaze to eggs Benedict elevated with 12-hour braised beef short ribs and miso hollandaise. The vibe is relaxed neighbourhood diner, but the flavours feel anything but ordinary, backed by a creative drinks list featuring everything from yuzu matcha tonics to Vietnamese coffee with salted vanilla cold foam. If you’re after pancakes with a twist, this is one worth seeking out.

Padbury’s Cafe Restaurant – Guildford

No list of ‘must-try’ pancakes is complete without Padbury’s famous Meringue Munro Pancakes. Take one look at these pancakes and you’ll understand why they’ve become their signature dish. Tart lemon curd, candied lemon, honeycomb, fig granola and flamed meringue adorn the top of the fluffy and super light soufflé pancakes. The café itself is as equally Insta-worthy as its pancake stacks. Located in the 1896 Padbury Colonial Store it’s a richly historical setting to enhance your brunch.

Little h – Duncraig

Nestled in the coastal suburb of Duncraig, the Pavlova Pancakes at Little h is a very impressive dish. Coconut pancakes topped with mascarpone, meringue and summer fruits, including blueberries, kiwi fruit and a generous serve of passionfruit syrup. It is definitely one of our favourites! A bonus is that their cafe is a lovely spot to enjoy brunch with a friend – and don’t miss their yummy Croquettes.

Sakura Desserts – Leederville

If you’re in the mood for something a little lighter (and seriously photogenic), Sakura Desserts is the go-to for cloud-like Japanese soufflé pancakes. These jiggly stacks are impossibly soft and airy, with a delicate texture that practically melts as you cut into them, typically served with fresh cream, fruit and sweet sauces that let the pancakes really shine. It’s a more refined take on the classic stack, and perfect if you prefer your pancakes on the lighter, less indulgent side. Beyond the signature soufflé pancakes, Sakura also offers a tempting range of desserts – from kakigori (Japanese shaved ice) to soft serve and other seasonal sweet treats – making it an easy pick for a post-dinner dessert stop or a relaxed afternoon treat.

Soho Lane – Mount Lawley

This super stylish modern cafe tucked away in the back streets of Mount Lawley features a classic brunch menu with unexpected ingredients and a sprinkle of American-inspired options. Their Pancakes are always available but change seasonally. We tried the Dinner Style Pancakes – a stack of light and fluffy pancakes topped with a generous helping of honeycomb butter, a sprinkle of macadamia praline, dollop of fresh rhubarb compote, and flooded with maple syrup. (we love it when they don’t skimp on the syrup!!) The seasonal pancakes at Soho Lance are true brunch highlight and always insta-worthy!!

Nic and Kolo – Applecross

Nic and Kolo in the leafy suburb of Applecross is a gorgeous spot for brunch. With outdoor dining under the huge Jacaranda trees and a contemporary menu, there are loads of savoury and sweet options for everyone. We enjoyed their Cinnamon Scroll Pancakes with plenty of cheesecake glaze, but just wished it had a bit more cinnamon flavour.

Cherry & Grapes – West Perth

For more light and fluffy souffle pancakes in Perth, it’s hard to go past the sweet stack at Cherry And Grapes. Flavours change seasonally (we had a simple strawberry and cream stack), but at the moment they have a Mandarin Yuzu’ option topped with Mandarin, Yuzu, Compote, Chantilly Cream, Crumble, Freeze Dried Mandarin Segment, Meringue, house-made Salted Caramel Gelato.
