The Only Pancake Spots Worth Trying in Cairo

It's not Pancake Day or anything but, honestly, it never needs to be Pancake Day for you to feel the need to devour fluffy pancakes stacked up on top of each other like it's iftar time in Ramadan. If you agree with everything we've just said, these spots in the capital will resonate with you. 

Marny's Co

Plain delicious flapjacks, covered in a river of maple syrup are pancakes in their absolute perfect form (basically Super Saiyan 3). Add sunny-side ups with some sausages on the side and you have yourself the perfect breakfast.

LYFE

A pancake with more twists than an M.Night Shyamalan movie. LYFE will cover your pancake with cinnamon, bananas and love.

Lokali

Caramel-covered, popcorn-topped pancakes!!! We feel like we're dreaming tbh. Thank you for making this pancake-y dream possible, Lokali. 

Lucille's

Okay so, you're probably wondering whether the person who's writing the article is from Maadi or whether the non-existent mayoress of Maadi has paid us to write this piece because most spots here are, indeed, in Maadi, but it's not our fault that the best pancakes in the country are, in fact, in Maadi. 

Angie's Place

Angie's Place is the place for the most delicious fruit-topped pancakes, especially when you add some powdered-sugar on top. It's the recipe for a good day.

Sea Salt Bakery & Cafe

Quinoa chocolate pancakes are an actual thing at  Sea Salt Bakery & Cafe, and believe it or not, they're actually delicious

Olivo

Topped with crunchy Lotus biscuits and mouthwatering ice cream, Olivo's pancakes are definitely something to talk about.

Ovio

The pancake scene doesn't get any better than this. Ovio has the most impressive pancake menu out there, but our fave will always be their mixed berries pancake. 

Mama's

This local brand entered the scene only recently but something tells us they're here to stay. Although it's not necessarily a spot or a restaurant, it's a business that delivers ready-made pancakes for you to heat up and eat at home. They provide the sauces and also make adorbz cereal pancakes.
