OUR STORY
IT ALL BEGAN WITH TWO ADELAIDE BOYS WHO WENT ON A BIG OL’ TRIP ACROSS THE USA IN A BORROWED VW. CROSSING THE STATES BETWEEN NEW YORK & MIAMI, IT SEEMED EVERY HUDRED MILES OR SO THE BOYS KEPT PULLING INTO WAYSIDE RESTAURANTS & DINERS TO EAT PANCAKES. THESE TWO PROLIFIC PANCAKE EATERS HAD FALLEN IN LOVE.
RETURNING HOME, INSPIRED BY A DREAM, THESE BOYS FOUND AN OLD BURNT-OUT DELI IN THE HEART OF ADELAIDE CITY. HERE, AN ICON WAS BORN ON THE FOUNDATION OF FLUFFY PANCAKES.
THE ICON
After returning home, the pancake kitchen was born. a friendly, cosy corner in the heart of the city, where family & friends could rendevouz, relax over a game and most importantly, enjoy delicious, fluffy pancakes.
with doors that will never close and a venue that never sleeps, adelaidians loved it! familiar smiling faces kept coming back. right from the start, people loved the pancakes and the crowds continued to grow.
AHOY A NEW CAPTAIN
THINGS STAYED SLEEPY HERE IN LITTLE OL’ ADELAIDE UNTIL THE SANDGRENS MOVED TO TOWN! WITH A NEW CAPTAIN, CAME NEW DREAMS, AND WITH A LITTLE BIT OF TLC, THE CITY VENUE WAS REJUVENATED! INSPIRED BY THEIR DIRECT LINKS BACK TO US DINERS THAT INSPIRED THE FOUNDERS, THEY BROUGHT WITH THEM NEW IDEAS, WHILE RETAINING THE HEART OF THE PANCAKE KITCHEN THAT EVERY ADELADIAN KNOWS AND LOVES.
THE
SMOKEHOUSE REVOLUTION
BASED ON FAMILY RECIPES TRACING BACK TO THE DEEP SOUTH OF THE USA, AND UNDER THE RIGOROUS TUTELAGE OF PIT MASTER MYRON MIXON, A SMOKEHOUSE REVOLUTION WAS BORN. INSPIRED TO CREATE SOMETHING SPECTACULAR, OUR TEAM DEBUTED A BRAND NEW MENU. FOLLOWING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE ORIGINAL FOUNDERS, THIS WAS, AND STILL IS, ABOUT BRINGING THE LOVE OF AMERICAN FOOD TO ADELAIDE FAMILIES.
