Best Pancakes in NYC

from MY least to most favorite

Chez Ma Tante

- syrup makes is soggy too fast, so it somehow disintegrates in your mouth too quick

Clinton St. Baking Company

- the maple butter is genius bc it gives you the perfect sweet & tinge of salt in every bite

Lingo

- not as sweet as it looks

- granny smith apple praline add tartness & miso caramel ice cream add that bit of savoriness

- almost cakey, but still moist

Cafe Colette

- the perfect pancake to me!

- not doing too much/ simple perfection

- fluffy yet still so moist

Phoenicia Diner

- honorable mention since this is in upstate NY

- is the cover pic

- after having them i thought about these buttermilk pancakes all summer

2025/4/22 Edited to

... Read moreNew York City boasts a vibrant brunch scene, but nothing quite captures the essence of breakfast comfort like a stack of pancakes. The pancake offerings in the city are diverse, ranging from traditional buttermilk to innovative flavors that include seasonal fruits and gourmet toppings. Among the most celebrated spots is Clinton St. Baking Company, known for its light and fluffy blueberry pancakes served with warm maple butter that brings a perfect sweet-salty balance. Meanwhile, Lingo offers an exciting twist with apple tart tatin pancakes that combine tartness and sweet caramel notes, making each bite a delightful experience. Cafe Colette stands out for its simplicity with berry and lemon mascarpone pancakes that embody the essence of classic French breakfast while achieving that much-desired moist fluffiness. It's a testament to how straightforward ingredients can create the perfect pancake. Honorable mentions include Phoenicia Diner, which is a bit of a drive but rewards with picturesque countryside views and delicious buttermilk pancakes that many crave throughout summer. These treats often lead to a nostalgic longing for warm breakfasts surrounded by friends and family, making them more than just a meal—it's an experience. Enjoy a brunch date or a leisurely morning treat at any of these establishments. Whether you favor traditional recipes or modern spins, NYC has an incredible variety of pancakes to satisfy any palate!
