Flour, milk, eggs – action! These are the best stacks of pancakes in Singapore, from fluffy to savoury to wobbly.
Pancakes are synonymous with breakfast. If you’re a firm believer that maple syrup belongs to its own food group, you’re in the right place. We love them sweet and savoury, drizzled with Nutella and fresh fruits, or served with crispy bacon and scrambled eggs. Feeling hungry? Ditch the sad boxed pancake mix and head to these joints that serve up the fluffiest, tastiest pancakes in Singapore.

7. Clinton Street Baking Company & Restaurant
Available for delivery via Deliveroo and Foodpanda.
Hailing from the Big Apple, this diner has its only Southeast Asian outpost in Singapore. A hotspot for breakfast fare, this is one joint where you shouldn’t pass on the pancakes. It’s been dubbed “Best in the City” by New York Magazine and we concur! Each layer is soft and fluffy like a cloud, probably due to the generous use of egg whites and buttermilk in the recipe. Topped with a choice of blueberries, banana walnut or chocolate chunks, the stacks come with a butterscotch-like maple butter sauce. They’re basically what sweet dreams are made of.

While sweet pancakes might be the norm, Earlybird’s savoury pancakes might just turn you into an early riser. Its melt-in-your-mouth pancakes and crispy fried chicken combo is the dream. This meaty stack comes surrounded by swirls of chilli maple sauce – just enough heat to flirt with the palate without throwing you off.

A popular spot amongst breakfast fanatics, Wild Honey has two pancake choices (think quality over quantity).
