Tried to eat here today, arrive at 9:30. Put my name down for 1, they told me approx 15 mins. So I stood for 35mins and watched while the hostess sat 3 groups of 2 who arrived and checked in after me. I decided to leave, it's a shame, I grew up in this neighborhood and loved eating here when I was younger. But probably won't come back after that treatment read more

I've never had Dutch pancake before, so was excited to try it out for the first time. The menu seems to be endless, with all the combinations of sweet and savory items you could want in a pancake. The ingredients are then layered thinly on top of each other and held together by a light batter. I had the cheddar, bacon and apple and it was the perfect balance of sweet vs savory. The grill is so hot that it melted the cheddar and it transformed it into a light crunchy crust to the soft pancake. Drizzle some of the syrup and it is perfection in every bite! read more

Friendly staff and a clean restaurant with a homey feel. Their pannenkoeks are a great way to start the day.

It's not much to look at on the outside (or the inside for that matter) but these little pancakes will just make your day. Literally any combination you can think of, you can have. Yum yum. This is my second time visiting and I will totally be back in the future. Great breakfast. read more

We have eaten here many times over the years, ordered takeout for years. I have no problem recommending. However. the last time we ordered takeout, one of our orders was severely burnt, both on the bottom & top of the pancake. It even tasted burnt. The other two were fine. I was disappointed that a restaurant/chef would think that it was ok to give to a customer. Would it stop me from ordering again? No, but I will check the food before leaving the restaurant with my takeout. Something all customers should do when ordering takeout. Lesson learned. read more

We came to Pffantastic Pannenkoek on a Saturday (11:00am) and barely had to wait for a table. Normally, this place is packed but we lucked out (Stampede season is the best season). This was my first trip even though I've passed by it many times. Note: no reservations on weekends (from 8:00am to 3:00pm Saturday and Sunday). Lots of options to choose from but it's mainly savoury and sweet pannenkoek along with a few soups, salads, omelettes and open faced sandwiches. Service is bustling but very tender and sweet. - Hollandse erwtensoep ($6.95 bowl) - comes with a warm fresh pretzel bun. Oks got a second ($0.80) cause she loves them so much. Pea soup had some chicken and sausage mixed in. Good. - Rosti, ui en kaas ($10.95) - shredded potato, onion and cheese with added tomatoes ($1.00). Crispy and tasty like a pierogi flattened into a thin style Dutch pancake. - Spek en appel ($10.95) - who knew bacon and apple could be so good? Delicious. Sweetness from the thinly sliced apples, savoury from the bacon. I'd hit it again. - Special pannenkoek of the month (fresh strawberries) ($14.95) - ice cream, whipped cream, icing sugar and chocolate sauce. Perfect dessert to end our meal. Strawberries were fresh and the ice cream/whipped cream decadent. Perfect to share for three (one scoop of ice cream for each!). Pleasantly surprised with Pffantastic Pannenkoek. Would totally come back again for brunch. Dutch goodness! read more

If you want authentic Dutch pancakes, look no further. These are not your average Western pancake, but your larger-than-your-face pancakes. We came during the weekday and lucked out as we were seated right away. From other reviewers, I see that it's popularity make for long wait times, especially during the weekend. If you have the chance to go during the week, that will be your best bet in avoiding those lineups. There are a variety of options for both sweet and savoury as well as a build-your-own style. I ended up picking their most popular savoury pancake which was the potato, bacon, onion and cheese. It was served with a side of sour cream and it tasted like a giant perogie. I definitely recommend it if you are having trouble deciding! The atmosphere is super laid back and is a cute family-run place. Our server was very friendly and makes you feel right at home. Can't wait to come back and try other items! read more

I've eaten at this place for years. Always loved it. I'm almost positive that 20 years ago we used to eat there on Tuesday nights to keep our kitchen clean for at least 1 day after the cleaning lady visited. Then they stopped opening on Tuesday. They only ever opened until 8 PM. A week of two ago my wife and I were driving by and I said we hadn't eaten there for a while so she checked the hours. Only open until 8 PM on Thursday and Friday.... so we showed up on a Thursday only to find it not open. Even Yelp says it's open Thursday nights (it's not). If you can ever succeed in getting food out of these people it's fantastic. My issue is that the whole point of a restaurant is that it's supposed to be open when I want food, not when they decide they want to show up. With this place, the hours are so limited that it's all but impossible to ever eat there. Given that all I've ever eaten there is savory pancakes which are not a breakfast food, I'd never think to ever show up early in the day. Alas, I've given up. I won't return. It's not worth my while trying to time my visits to a restaurant that opens for a few hours a day, 5 days a week. read more

This place is pretty great, just be prepared to wait a while on weekends and pay a pretty hefty price tag for breakfast, but it's worth it and we've gone here on every visit to Calgary. They do have great, strong coffee, but they need fresh squeezed OJ and not bottled juice. Service is always good, even when they're swamped. If you get a savory pancake, make sure you try their weird molassesish syrup on the table. It's really good! We usually buy a bottle to bring home along with a bag or two of Dutch licorice! read more

It took me 25-minutes to drive to Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus. I arrived around 10:30AM and waited approximately 10-minutes to get a table for myself that placed me 6 feet from other customers waiting for tables. The decor of the place is dated, and could use a reno, along with a better table layout design. I found the service to be spotty, but not for a lack of trying. I waited nearly 10-minutes with a completely empty coffee cup before a refill, and then I noticed that one of the servers put down some table sugar, but not until I was nearly done my last refill, poor timing. I had to interrupt the servers a couple of times, for items that should have been already available to the customer, this dampened my experience. Now on to the food, I ordered the Classic Savoury dish, the Shredded potato, onion, bacon, & cheese ($17.70), it was a bit salty, but overall decent. However, the amount of sour cream is not generous by any means. Unsure if I would come back in the future, but who knows if I am in the area, I may dine here again. read more

Service: Friendly and attentive. The server recommended us to try out the dutch syrup on our savoury pannekoek and it tasted great! Atmosphere: Cute mom and pa shop that's family run. They even sell some dutch treats like stroopwafel at the front counter. Taste / Value for money: This is the only place in YYC that you can find these dutch pancakes. I ordered the bacon, raisin and cheese pannekoek and my bf ordered the bacon, onion, potato, cheese with added sausage. I loved mine! The sweet and savoury combination was great and to add to that, the crispy cheese perfected the pannekoek. My bf enjoyed his pannekoek as well and added the syrup for the sweet/salty combination. We both enjoyed our meal. To total came to $37 (tax and tip included) for the both of us and we left full! If you have never tried pannekoeks before, we definitely recommend!! read more

If you love thin Dutch style pancakes/crepes, this is the place to come. They are huge, and served with a massive variety of toppings, ranging from chocolate spread to chicken. At first you could be forgiven for thinking they were serving you thin crust pizza. The line up can be long, particularly at the weekend, but it's worth the wait. And staff do their best to serve you quickly and turn tables over to keep the line moving, without making you feel pressured into shovelling the food into your mouth as fast as possible. They also have a small selection of Dutch food and souvenirs available for purchase. My daughter was particularity pleased as she loved the pancake syrup they serve and was able to take a bottle home. read more

Arrived here an hour after they opened and the restaurant was already packed. That's when you know that there is good food waiting for you. Now when you order, they are known for the savoury and sweet Dutch crepe like pancakes. Not too dense and filled with different toppings The bacon sausage egg pancake was great, lots of sausage in it. I always have to get something sweet so I got the banana pancake. Added whipped cream and ice cream. Very filling and needs to be shared! Bf got the omelet-simple omelet nothing special. read more

Authentic Dutch pancakes. Now these are not your traditional fluffy American pancakes but more like a thin crepe and hashbrown combination. It is delicious and a hidden gem in Calgary! You should try this. There are sweet or savory pannenkoeks. For a meal, go with a savory and you can add a little syrup to it to give a hint of sweetness. Wonderful restaurant!! read more

It took a while to get a table, but at least they don't build your hopes up. The maître d was honest enough to tell us that we had to wait 30min. Was expecting a better tasting coffee! And the OJ is served in plastic bottles, so don't expect freshly squeezed juice. Food was pretty decent. The mushroom omelette was really good. The Thai Pannenkoek was an interesting twist on a crepe. I wouldn't go back here if I had to wait more than 5min to get a table.

I used to go there about every six or seven weeks, because of this Covid thing it had been almost 6 months. I got served quite quickly and damn it was good. I can't believe how quickly I inhaled it. My only complaint, need bigger coffee cups! read more

A unique experience, amazing food, and great customer service. Although the layout and interior design are cluttered in my opinion. This place is great for sharing if you are ordering their specialty Pannenkoek. It is a 12-inch diameter crepe with any fillings to choose from. We ordered 3 Pannenkoek which are: *Bacon, smoked sausage, and egg *Potato, cheese, and bacon *Apple and bacon All of which is great, it was light, flavorful and just the right amount of fill in my tummy. I highly recommend the potato, cheese, and bacon as our waitress also recommended. Overall, I would come back to try out other fillings and do order coffee as you get a nice dutch biscuit. read more

Went for breakfast this morning with our daughter and her boyfriend while visiting them in Calgary, and we were very much impressed with the food! My wife had a warm blueberry pannenkoeken with whipped cream, my daughter had the Cinnamon roll with apples (and loved the cream cheese icing drizzle), and her boyfriend had the black forest pannenkoeken which was simply ridiculous, with warm cherries, whipped cream, ice cream, chocolate sauce, and a little chocolate cup of kirsch. I had a savoury pannenkoeken, the shredded potato with bacon, onion and cheese, with added smoked sausage, and it was amazing, served with sour cream. Portions were huge and the coffee was perfectly adequate for a diner, refilled often. Highly recommended. read more

Items ordered: Coffee with Speculoos Saskatoon Berries, Whipped Cream, Ice Cream Pannenkoek Potato, Bacon, Onion, Cheese, Sour Cream Pannenkoek A locally owned institution located in a small shopping complex off the highway, Calgary's Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus focuses on a very specific dish common throughout the Netherlands, but rarely found elsewhere, a novelty that has nonetheless found plenty of fans in Western Canada where a 9:05am arrival was just minutes early enough to avoid a significant line snaking out the frozen front door. Discussing it's unique style of skillet-cooked dough proudly on the website and menu, each round priced between $12-$19 with nearly limitless ability to customize in addition to several-dozen suggested combinations, patrons at Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus are greeted with the most smiling of faces by a team of mostly middle-age Women, most regulars ordering without even a look at the menu while the indecisive are presented Coffee with a Windmill Biscuit to enjoy as they weigh the options. Decorated in traditional ornaments with a wide selection of imported Cookies, Candies and Toppings to take home, traditional Maggi Seasoning Sauce and Schenkstroop found alongside Creamer and Sugar on the table, it was with tough decisions made that two Pancakes filled the table perhaps fifteen minutes and two Cups of Coffee after entering, each flattened disc likely enough to feed a couple, the best bet to dine with a mindset of sharing. Taking a good look at each Pannenkoek, the savory choice of Bacon and Onion beneath a lattice of Cheddar and crispy shredded-Potatoes a touch oily and quite salty even without the MSG-based Seasoning, slow-and-steady proves a wise choice when indulging as everything from the center out arrives piping hot, the sweet 'classic' cooled by three scoops of Vanilla Ice Cream and thick Schenkstroop far more readily devoured with a texture about halfway between a Crepe and a North American Pancake beneath a warm scoop of reduced Saskatoon Berries. read more

We (family and friends) have been to Pfantastic Pannenkoek Haus multiple times and we really enjoy all their pancakes (savoury and sweet) and other breakfast options. The food portions are huge, so sharing is a must! We have almost tried every single pancake (savoury and sweet) and we love them all! Their pancakes are thin and crispy, but at the same time chewy and moist on the inside. Atmosphere of PPH is super cozy and the service is great. Servers always greet us instantly when we walk through the doors. Even when there is a huge line-up (trust me there is always a line up, especially on the weekends) our orders come in a timely manner. And while waiting, when you get your coffee, they give you a lil gingerbread cookie! And I'm pretty sure if you ask even if you didn't order coffee they would give you a cookie anyway. Overall, just think of the PPH as your grandparent's home where you eat comfortable, talk happily, and eat super tasty homemade food. So, I definitely recommend it! read more

Right now I need something to rave about, and Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus TOTALLY makes the cut. Take the Dutch awesomeness that is the business name, and let it ring out across the entire store. Until PPH I had only ever had the Mitch Hedberg definition of pancakes - "all exciting at first, but then by the end you're f*ckin' sick of em." But then WHAMMY! (Champ Kind reference,) that definition just got turned right upside down. I was stuffed to the brim with Pannenkoek goodness and begging for more! Here's the deal: I went with one of the sweet/savoury combos, which for one, ALL have BACON on them. As science has proved, bacon is, in fact, better than True Love and every single sweet/savoury pannenkoek plate of awesome comes loaded with this delectable piggy goodness. Bacon, Apple and Cheese is what I went with and even though it's the only one I've ever tried, I'm never looking back. If Apple x Cheese = Yes, and Bacon x Cheese = Hell yes, then we can derive that Bacon x Cheese x Apple... I have no idea. I already quoted science, I don't have enough left in me to mathematically prove why this angelic pancake monstrousity is SO good... but it is. It's thin, it's flavourful, and it's bigger than my biggest dinner plate. "I can't eat all of this!!" Take a deep breath. All you need is one bite and then you will know that you can. You can. The restaurant is adorable, unassuming and down to earth. Its a great spot for people of all ages. A cool, quirky, brunch date spot for couples, a good place to bring the kids and plenty of seniors have made this their pancake haven. I loved the Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus and there's a good chance your grandmother will too. read more

Delicious, thy name is pannenkoek! I've been told about this pancake place by a few friends and family and had to try it. Disguised and tucked away in a little strip mall right off of Crowchild is this Dutch haus. The ambience is very homey and welcoming. You are greeted at the front podium with a pair of clogs and excited staff. You can see a lot of Dutch wares and food/condiments for sale that can't be found in your regular supermarket. If you get coffee, you get a tasty treat of speculoos cookie on the side. The pancakes are large, filling the plate. You have a choice of savoury, savoury-sweet, and sweet as well as the option to create your own/add extra toppings. All of the toppings are cooked right into the pancake. We had the chicken parmesan as well as the potato, bacon, and onion pancakes. They were both filling and completely satisfying. The potato, bacon, onion came with a side of sour cream. You can add the Maggi sauce to add a punch of umami flavour as well. This is a great place to go to for a different spin on pancakes and breakfast/brunch! read more

Food: 3.5/5 Atmosphere: 3/5 Service: 4/5 Overall experience: 3.5/5 (1- Terrible; 3- decent; 5- Fantastic) My bf and I decided to finally check this place out after hearing rave reviews of how good the pancakes were. Unlike your typical American pancake that are thick and heavy, Pannenkoek House serves authentic Dutch pancakes which are crepe-like. As you probably already read, they serve savory, sweet, savory and sweet, and house special pancakes that range from $10-$12 depending on what you get. We went on an early Saturday morning at around 10:30am and there wasn't too big of a line unless you were a large group where you would have to wait for a little while longer. If you do go, I suggest getting there a bit early to avoid lineups. The decor is very outdated and reminds me of a small rundown truck stop cafe you would see in the movies. Definitely needs a makeover. There are a couple booths tucked away and tables scattered around, and the cash register counter is littered with Dutch goodies such as syrup and cookies that you can purchase. The service was alright; the servers were very casual and our food came out in a very reasonable time despite a full house. We started off with a cup of house made mushroom soup which according to my bf tasted like something from out of a can. Unlike your typical white, creamy mushroom soup, Pannenkoek's was more beef/chicken broth based. It was tad too sweet which led to an unbalanced flavour but I still enjoyed it. My bf ordered a savory pancake with steak, shredded potatoes and onions while I had the warm Saskatoon berries with a sprinkle of icing sugar. The pancakes are huge (about 12 inches or so), and are nice and light, fluffy, and not too sweet on its own. It goes great with Dutch syrup (stroop) that's found in a yellow bottle on the table. I thought the fruit compote on top of my pancake was too sweet and it became too overwhelming halfway through that I had to scrape some of it off; It completely ruined the pancake for me. My bf's pancake was stuffed with potatoes, steak and onions, but it was only mediocre and tasted like a giant thin omelet. Overall, it's worth a visit if you haven't already gone to try something new. The pancakes were mediocre... I was expecting knock my socks off good and it came up a little short. If you do go, I suggest going with someone else or with a couple of friends so you can try a variety of pancakes on the menu; you can only eat so much of the same thing. read more

For all the great things I've heard about Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus, it certainly took me long enough to get there. Seriously, it's been on my radar for near 2 years, but it's not anywhere that I typically frequent. It took an intentionally planned brunch at a spot that turned out to be closed for me to get here. But I'm glad I did! I'm going to call PPH "Calgary's original house of pancakes." But it's not the fluffy buttermilk ones we're used to. Nono, these are more doughy and crepe-like, but not as flat, and all of the contents are cooked into the dough rather than being wrapped inside. There are more flavours of pancake than I know what to do with. And if there's a flavour you aren't quite on board with or that you're thinking, "You know, it'd be great if I could try a little bit of this and a little bit of that instead," don't you worry, PPH will make you whatever you want. Like, if you want a double bacon and apple pancake, you can have it. Me, I went for the bacon, smoked sausage and egg one. It seemed appropriately breakfast-y. Five fabulous stars... I didn't need syrup, or toppings or anything. That pancake was so packed full of mouth-watering goodness... please excuse me while I wipe the drool off my chin at the memory of it. Where PPH lost the 5th star on my visit was in the service. Friendly and on top of things for the most part, but my brunch mate got there before me and ordered a water. When I got there I was asked what I wanted to drink, I ordered a coffee... and brunchmate was skipped over. Misunderstanding, no big deal, they thought all she wanted was water. The next visit to our table, she ordered a hot chocolate. And it was forgotten... we had to ask after it again, and in the end it didn't turn up on our bill. We asked after it at the till, they forgot to put it on there too. Anyway, the pancakes lived up to the hype. Please go out of your way to visit! Just make sure you speak up if something's missing, it's a busy place and it may've gotten lost in the shuffle a bit! read more

Great staffs, very friendly. Served tea with a piece of delicious ginger cookie, very thoughtful. However, food, very disappointing. Not exactly what we were hoping for. My family all order the pancakes. We never had pancakes like this before, and decided to give this place a try. We were not were happy after breakfast here. They were very greasy and very salty. Maybe this is the truly authentic way of preparing pancake, they were crispy, however it didn't work out for us. read more

I first visited PPH the first arrival to Calgary (Aug 2012) and was told it was a Calgary Staple! I fully agree! We visited again on my one year anniversary of moving to Calgary which was awesome and ironically sat in the same booth. IRONIC! Be prepared to wait ... They are quite busy on weekends from literally opening to closing. It's worth the wait and the meals are served quite quickly. I love that their hot beverages come w/ginger snaps! So tasty - you can also purchase them to bring home. The selection is amazing and depending on if you are in a savory or sweet mode you will have difficulty deciding. I've had the Rosti and the Chocolate/Banana/Coconut ... OMG heaven! They are all amazing and I'm always pleased with the meal - leaving overly full! Will definitely be back! read more

Great restaurant. Food was great, service was fast and friendly. It felt like having a great meal at your aunts house. We had a "create your own" pannenkoek with egg, smoked sausage, leek, and mushrooms. Tasted great and the leeks were a nice touch. However, the egg is a little lost and pointless in the mix. We also had a banana coconut chocolate pannenkoek and it was awesome. I'm not completely sure if banana and coconut go together though because the banana flavour overwhelms the coconut. The coffee was great here and the accompanying ginger snap cookie was a surprisingly perfect addition. Love this place and hope to come back the next time I'm in Calgary! read more

5 stars for unique, tasty, and customizable savoury offerings. Imagine a pizza place that uses crepe batter as the crust and you'll start to get an idea of what pannenkoeks are all about. The thin 12+ inch crepes will fill one person quite handily, and loaded ones are in the very affordable $12 range. Following in classic Dutch tradition, the "toppings" here (actually embedded in the batter) are mostly salty mild meats, cheeses, potatoes and various veg. Popular combos are listed on the menu, or you can build your own. For the spice lovers, Indonesian hot sauces are available to jazz it up. Sweet pancakes, including liquored up ones, are available for dessert (or brunch I suppose). Assorted packaged Dutch sweets are available at the till, along with licorice (sweet, salty or double salt) instead of the obligatory mints. Service was good, and fairly quick considering the place was packed at lunch on a Friday. Overall great stuff. Consider taking your date for a "Dutch Treat", even if you aren't a cheapskate! read more

The name alone is a mouthful, so I took it as an indication that food would put me in the same state. I've heard rave reviews about this place so when I finally found myself in the South end of the city, my sister and I headed here for dinner. After reading over all the drool worthy options, we went the savoury potato, onion, bacon and cheese pannenkoek to share. Out rolls this GIANT crepe like concoction and I was ready to indulge. After smearing some sour cream on, I took my first bite and was brought straight to heaven. Crispy shredded potatoes were accompanied with sautéed onions and bacon that was smothered in melted cheese - yaaaaaaaaaaaaaassss I'm glad they have a take out option, because after stuffing ourselves I still wanted to try dessert. We got the cinnamon roll to go (apples and brown sugar dusted with cinnamon and a cream cheese filling), and I was treated with the smell of freshly baked cinnamon buns in my car that lingered for a few days. (It tasted as good as it smelled if you were wondering) I will keep this place in mind next time I'm in the South and schedule to make a pit stop because it really is pfanntastic. read more

Pfanntastic Pannenkoek Haus - Cinnamon roll with apples - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

This place is a Calgary must go or at least try if you're out of town. Come early or at off peak times to avoid the long wait or order take out. My sister lives near here so when we get a chance, we get take out. They have both savoury and sweet options and both are fantastic. My favorite is the potatoe and cheese, topped with some sour cream and you have a winner. My sweet favourite is the coconut, banana and chocolate. Nothing is overly sweet. The crepe is unique and the texture is different than French crepes. The portion is big so if you want variety, share and you can try different flavours. I love the syrup they give you, it's got a unique taste to it, kind of like a lighter molasses with a sweetness. One will usually fill you up pretty good, so come hungry and don't over order. read more

Quaint little place in the outskirts of Calgary. The decor is a bit dated however adds to the feel and atmosphere of the restaurant. A big variety of different sweet and savoury pancakes (more like crepes) and you can even build your own!! I ordered the four cheese and it just is splendid! You can add molasses on the side however I found it to be a bit too sweet and overpowers the flavour. The crust is extremely crispy and the cheese is beautifully melted equally. Add some pepper and you are good to go! Service was good and friendly. Would recommend! read more
