Emma Pancakes are here at Stack and Still
Eventually what we have been waiting for, especially those of us who have missed The Pancake Place. Stack and Still is now open for pancakes!
We were invited along to their trial run night to see what it was all about. Elasticated trousers on, off we went!
Inside the decor is not dissimilar to Byron which was here before. Funky 70’s style with a touch of neon to brighten things up.

Tonight we were restricted to the signature pancakes, no complaints from us, they all sounded good. But what to pick? We decided on savoury, myself picking the spicy chicken stack and Mr C the steak stack.
Whilst we waited for the pancakes , our drinks arrived. A salted caramel espresso martini for Mr C and a banana treacle and maple for myself.
The foam on the espresso martini was impressive. A creamy and sweet drink. My banana rum concoction went down far too easily, and helped my cold with the five a day portion of banana😉
Our pancakes arrived and we were excited. They certainly looked good, but how would they taste?
Mr C’s Steak stack with three pancakes were fluffy with the beef being moist and tender. Well accompanied by the cheese, onions and especially the beer gravy. Just enough gravy for his liking – some left for the end to mop up with the remains of his pancake. Really filling, and he said he would really recommend it.
The spicy chicken stack smelled the part. Three pancakes topped with shredded chicken, avocado, onions, peppers, sour cream and hot sauce. Mexican in inspiration. All the pieces worked well together to create a filling and tasty dish. I’d have liked a little bit more hot sauce and sour cream, or was that my cold?
Mr C has set himself the challenge to do a savoury 5 stack, and a sweet 5 stack. Looking forward to see him do that!
It was time to try out the self dispensing bar and laugh, sorry, watch Mr C show off his bartending skills.
