Where to celebrate Pancake Day 2020 in Bristol
Posted on: 21 Feb 2020Pancake Day (or Shrove Tuesday) is nearly here! That's crêped up on us. It's happening on Tuesday 25 Feburary.
This year, don’t settle for those homemade pancakes that never quite go to plan, or worse, those soggy shop-bought crêpes. Instead, why not explore Bristol’s pancake offerings?
From a cafe with its very own laundrette to bottomless brunch options, there's loads of places in Bristol to get your Pancake Day off to a flipping good start.
The Prince Street Social, 37-41 Prince Street, BS1 4PS
Even though Pancake Day doesn’t fall on a weekend, why not make an exception for the Prince Street Social's bottomless weekend brunch?
Every weekend, the Prince Street Social offers up a gluttonous boozy brunch menu - pancakes included, of course.
But that's not all, at one of their Saturday Bottomless Brunches, you can help yourself to prosecco, Amstel or Thatchers for the duration of your brunch! That's a Pancake Day added bonus.
The Crêpe & Coffee Cabin, Prince Street, BS1 4QA
Ever walked past The Crêpe and Coffee Cabin on the Harbourside? We bet you have.
A tiny kiosk overlooking the water, find the Cabin on the Prince Street Bridge. Grab a coffee and a crêpe, and enjoy one of the best views in town.
Buttermilk & Maple, 5-7 Welsh Back, BS1 4SP
Situated on the Welsh Back waterfront, Buttermilk & Maple is a swanky café and restaurant prepped with some of Bristol’s tastiest brunchd dishes.
And of course, their signature, buttermilk pancakes are the real Pancake Day pinnacle.
Choose from a range of toppings, including mixed fruit and ice cream, nutella and smoked crispy bacon.
At The Well, 145 Cheltenham Road, Cotham, BS6 5RR
A long-time favourite on these ‘Best Pancake Places’ lists - but with excellent reason. At The Well isn’t just a place to grab a coffee or a bite to eat. No, it’s a launderette, too!
Sat in the heart of Stokes Croft, this fantastic eatery is definitely one of the coolest places in the city to enjoy your annual Pancake Day party.

The North Street Standard, 11-13 North Street, Bedminster, BS3 1EN
