I was looking forward to dining here as a coeliac but the service I had wasn’t exactly accompanied with a smile. The gluten free pancakes that I ordered were delicious but unfortunately they clearly were not gluten free due to the terrible reaction I had later on that day.. very disappointing. Even though I confirmed with the waitress that the pancakes were gluten free!

We traveled here specifically for the pancakes and breakfast. It states open! We arrived at 9:15am to find it closed and it looked like it had been closed for a while. Two very disappointed children. Thirty minutes journey too!

Upon entering, we were greeted by the owner of the astablishment in a polite and friendly manner. I ordered an all day breakfast and it arrived within a good amount of time (about 10 minutes) and I had myself a Strawberry Ice-cream Milkshake, which arrived within minutes. Overall the breakfast was cooked great and the milkshake was divine. I would definitely recommend that if you're in Newark, to pop in. You won't be disappointed.

Pancakes are fantastic! They will do vegan and wheat free pancakes if you ask them. I've tried to make them at home, but not as good as these!!

I decided to try this establishment on Shrove Tuesday - Pancake day - and it really was superb. To start with I had American pancakes with a savoury filling og mushrooms, goats cheese and pesto. It really was a flavoursome combination and worked very well indeed. I followed that up with the sweet of crepes with lemon and sugar which were very like the pancakes my my Mum used to cook. Staff were polite and helpful too. Nothing was too much trouble. I plan to go back soon.

Whilst on an afternoon out with the grand children I thought I would give it a go reading previous reviews Sorry ladies Whilst the food was lovely (although my granddaughter had to wait for her food she had the same order as me minus my drink I had ordered) myself and grandson had eaten ours by the time hers arrived. We we arrived I saw a who I thought was a customer sat on a sofa I was surprised when she came over to take our order gave us menus and a marker pen to cross on menu our orders. She was the waitress. Decor looks like it needs to be updated seen better days probably a splash of colour or some sort of theme going on to show it in a better light. Didn't help that a guy was glueing a strip of edging on the counter whilst they were preparing food Lovely food when it eventually arrived Would we go again? No unless there is more staff and orders taken on a pad not on reusable wipe down menu Makes me wonder if they were cleaned by same dishcloth to wash the plates. Yes this is an honest opinion and we are all entitled to our reviews. Businesses are fighting against each other to gain customers It's called trade. My advice More staff Update everything decor tables chairs go and see what the competitors are like and then we will be back Hence my 2 stars

Shocking service, food was an hour late with no notice, stock wasn’t checked pre-taking our order so we had less toppings on our pancakes, pancakes themselves were disgusting and dry, over priced. And when we attempted to get discount for all the shocking service, politely tried to explain the situation to them and their response was rude and vile and after expressing that their food was rubbish, I was told to “f*** off”. Disgusting. Do not recommend

We were so shocked when found that this restaurant caters completely to people with diverse dietary needs. Whether it's lactose or gluten-free, anyone can come and eat here without worrying about exclusion or negative consequences. Not to mention, the lactose-free pancakes tasted just as good as the regular ones. And the regular ones taste fantastic! The shop itself was adorable and comfortable, with fun chalkboards by the tables and a great atmosphere. Staff were kind, helpful and friendly, and it was cool to watch our pancakes being prepared. Overall a brilliant experience. We will be back again and again and again.

Visited Newark on Sunday before May Day and came across this little gem. The place is quaint, clean and homely. But what let it down was clutter or mess down one side of the serving area where there is a perfectly good breakfast bar that could be used. I had the savory pancakes as I didn't fancy something sweet. I had Spinach, Mushroom, Goat's cheese pancakes. They were light and fluffy so they weren't sickly. They came with Pesto on the top as stated in the Menu, but I couldn't help feeling a caramelised red onion chutney would go much better than the Pesto. My partner is a coeliac as I've mentioned may times on this websites, the gluten free pancakes here were incredible. They also did Dairy Free or Sugar free if I recall correctly. It could have been Vegan Pancakes. I don't remember. What I do remember is that they did Syn-free pancakes for those on Slimming World which I thought was an amazing idea. Would definitely go again, the place just needs sprucing up.

I have been here dozens of times since it first opened, and for a long while I was always impressed with the level of service, the quality of the food and the overall atmosphere.

Each table is painted with blackboard paint and there are chalks on every table, to entertain both children and adults ☺️ There is a great selection of different pancakes and both savoury and sweet toppings.

And the little miss had pancakes with chocolate a banana - yummy and messy! Will definitely be returning

We found the pancake cafe and couldn't resist trying them. It is a small cafe but child friendly with blackboards on the walls along with jars of chalk for children to use. The staff were very friendly. I chose blueberries and maple syrup whilst my daughter had raspberry and white chocolate. The pancakes came as a trio and were cooked to perfection. They also have an impressive savoury pancake menu which we will be trying on our next visit

We planned to visit for the first time to have breakfast here on a wet and cold Saturday morning(12th Nov), having read the good reviews on TA. However, the restaurant was closed when we arrived at 09.10 am. Looking through the windows we saw that the restaurant was in darkness with all the chairs stacked on the tables and a mop propped against the door. My husband commented that the place looked deserted and so we went round the corner to Gannets and had an excellent breakfast there in a lovely warm environment with friendly staff. Passing the pancake parlour later, we noticed that it was at last open but no customers were in sight. Why wasn't the parlour open as stated on the website at 9am?

Popped in on Sat lunch with 3 adults and two kids ,both pancake fans. We thought we might struggle to find a table however we were the only customers.A waitress was quick to accommodate us by joining two tables together. Amongst the pancakes we ordered were bacon and maple syrup, bacon and stilton and a slimmers option of blueberries and raspberries Chocolate milkshake scored highly served in a bottle. The coffee was surprisingly good.The service was somewhat haphazard but good natured. The kids really enjoyed it which is all we could ask and we would go again.

Visited yesterday with my family. My husband received his pancake within 20 minutes of our arrival but the rest of us had to wait another half an hour. The breakfast was nice when it did arrive although the American pancakes had a strange after taste. Everything just seemed chaotic. After we'd finished they tried to bring my husband another pancake then when I went to pay they couldn't find the order and I had to run through everything I'd had. I'm wondering if it's changed ownership as the lady that used to cook wasn't there and things seemed disorganised.

The place is small, a little tatty, but was busy. I waited for my table to be cleared and eventually had to ask. I thought someone would be back to wipe away the mess left on the table, but no, I had to ask again! After quite a wait the hot chocolate and strawberry milkshake arrived. The former was very sweet and tasteless and the latter barely had any flavour. I mentioned this to the waitress, who said 'Oh! Umm!' Nothing else. Both grandchildren left most of their drinks! The child order arrived, nothing to write home about, but was eaten and finished ten minutes before my grand daughter and my orders arrived. Again, disappointing, although the egg was good. Having been sat there for three quarters of an hour before being served, we had to eat quickly as our parking ticket was due to expire. The whole experience was an over priced mistake. Yes, you guessed it; I was issued with a Penalty Charge Notice, just as I arrived back, 10 minuets late, at my car. Overall an expensive and unenjoyable experience.

I was visiting Newark on Trent on the way back home, I researched places to eat and was instantly drawn to Mamma's whites. The reviews regarding vegan pancakes were insane, so I thought I needed to visit. First of all, it is amazing that they offer vegan pancakes. I rang up to place my order which was ready in fifteen minutes, which was amazing as they were so busy. I had vegan pancakes with Lotus biscuit spread, lemon and sugar. The overall pancakes were okay but were slightly salty. You got three small pancakes for £5.00 which was slightly expensive. I only managed one due to the saltiness. I feel this could be down to them being so busy, but I would visit again and eat in for sure. The customer service was good and the service was fast.

Visited with a friend and our 2 pre - teens. Staff very friendly and chatty. Pancakes lovely (not difficult to make tho!) but we were disappointed that we literally only got a teaspoon of creme frais for the extra 50p charge which we felt was a little mean. The cooking smell of heated fat lingered in the small area and on our clothes so a larger area or better ventilation would be a bonus!

I asked my husband to take me to Mama White's in mid-September for a birthday treat. He was able to have vegan savoury American pancakes, and I had the breakfast pancakes. They are new on the menu, I think, and when they arrived, wow, there was too much food for me, to be honest. My brunch was really tasty and I didn't have to eat for the rest of the day. I would call that a result all round!

Stopped here for breakfast in order to break a long journey to Lincolnshire. We had been looking forward to our stop and we weren't disappointed! The place is rather small, but don't let that put you off. The food (full English with a pancake stack on the side) was extremely tasty. The food was freshly prepared and the selection was very appetising. The place has a couple of really nice but quirky touches - the tables are painted in chalkboard paint and chalks can be found in a pot in the middle of each table along with colouring pencils for the younger, smaller clientele, and there is a very large choice of slimming world friendly pancakes on offer too, for people who'd rather not get any bigger!!!!

Service was shocking.....took 10 mins to take the order and another 25 for the pancakes to come out. I can flip out 10 pancakes in about 3 minutes at home for a tenth of the price. As for the homemade lemonade....water with a squeeze of lemon! Tables were dirty and the tall chairs in the window, the only clean place to sit, are highly inappropriate for small children to sit on.

I have been here on a couple of occasions and the pancakes used to be amazing however when I went today, my boyfriend had the breakfast and I had fluffy pancakes with banana and Nutella. I think they were on rations with the Nutella as I only got a tiny spoonful which left my other banana pancakes very dry! The pancakes also seed soggy and not as tasty as when I had been before. My boyfriends breakfast was served quickly but was again, not at all tasty and he left half of it. Always used to love coming here but not in a rush to return anytime soon.

We went today on a recommendation from a friend and we was not disappointed. We were greeted by a couple of friendly members of staff who showed us to a table and gave us a couple of menus. As we've never been before I was impressed with being asked if we had been and as we hadn't a quick run down was given on the menu. We both ordered the six item breakfast (from a good range of items to choose from including veggie options) which included a stack of pancakes and a hot drink. This I thought was excellent value at £7:50 right off the bat. A short wait later (they were very busy) our food turned up (mine with a random black pudding on which I didn't order that they soon apologetically got rid of) and it was excellent. Good size breakfast, beautiful pancakes and a loverly cup of coffee. I must give a special mention to the massive amount of bacon you get. Always a winner in my book that!

As American citizens, we are kind of picky about so called American pancakes. Well, this restaurant delivered! It is a small place with friendly, cheerful waitresses. We both had the breakfast special. This is a choice of six items from thirteen, bacon, sausage, eggs, hash browns, mushrooms etc with a stack of pancakes and syrup on the side and tea or coffee for £7.50 you can't go wrong with that, we were stuffed! Great quantity and quality. The hostess detected our accent and asked for feedback and we told her that the pancakes were excellent, albeit in the U.S. They come served with butter as well as syrup!! Would definitely return.

Everything, including the tea & coffee is all good quality & you can just tell that they went the extra mile with the details here.

Second trip to Mamma White's. Was made to feel very welcome as soon as we walked in. I had American style pancakes with bacon and maply syrup and my partner had all day breakfast. I had a home made lemonade which was lovely and partner has a speculoos ice cream shake. All together it was just over £18.00 which I think is reasonable. Only one critism is that on both occasions the card machine hasn't worked so we had to go and get cash out then come back to pay. Other than that it was great. Will be returning!

First time visited. Basic seating but good atmosphere. Wide ranging menu of savoury and sweet pancakes either based on American pancakes or Continental crepes. Good strong coffee and a good thick smoothie to compliment our pancakes. Friend had a savoury one I had raspberry with white chocolate absolutely delicious Friend delighted with his and his thick smoothie. Received our drinks well ahead of our pancakes. Pleasant staff Recommended

Mamma Whites just gets better. An imaginative menu which the staff are happy to advise on, and happy to adapt. Food is obviously cooked from good quality fresh ingredients wherever possible using local suppliers. I find I am always made to feel very welcome by all the staff. I never leave less than fully satisfied.

My husband heard "mamma white" on radio 2 this morning talking about pancake day and suggested we go as a family for tea. We had a lovely time eating freshly cooked, gorgeous pancakes, served by very friendly attentive staff. We will be visiting again very soon. Would recommend to anyone.

Mamma White's is a real find... just the sort of place you need to have an excellent treat and an amazing cup of coffee. The staff are really friendly and take time to explain the menu and the food is great. If you have children this is a place you must visit they will love it while you can relax and enjoy.

I have visited here on a few occasions with various people and have never been disappointed. Most recently I visited just me and my young daughter for breakfast and she was in her element playing with the building bricks and drawing with the chalk while her pancakes were being made. There is a massive choice of different pancakes and different toppings, both savoury and sweet, and the ladies serving are always happy to recommend flavour combinations or make ammendments to suit your taste.

My daughter begs me to go here every time we are in Newark! As a another reviewer mentioned it is something a bit different and I love their menu choices like protein pancakes as well as their delicious teas. My favourite is the coconut pancakes with ice cream and chocolate sauce and my daughter adores a chocolate pancake.

Visited Mamma Whites today for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! The menu is extensive with savoury and sweet options. I decided to go for the bacon, Stilton and mango chutney and it was delicious, very filling with plenty of bacon and just the right amount of Stilton! The coffee was also very good. Will definitely be returning soon,would recommend to all.

We visited this cafe last year and found the staff lovely and the pancakes great if a little pricey ,on our return this year as we entered the door we found that the place was quite full .One member of staff called out that she would be with us shortly which was fine the other member of staff just yelled out "we're booked" and left us standing there !! Sorry we are booked would have been a nicer way of putting it as it was we were left there feeling like idiots ,we will not be going there again .

This is a gorgeous little cafe with great facillities for children aswel as adults. It is amazing value with special deals on such as two for £10 including one item off of the specials menu and a drink for two people. I had the savoury crepe with bacon and mushroom and it was delicious. The best crepe i have ever tasted. The staff are friendly and welocming and there is even a reward scheme for regular visitors. All in all fabulous! Well done ladies!

Literally come here all the time to meet my parents, they even know my coffee order when I walk in which always feels lovely. Staff are friendly and can’t do enough for you or the dogs which they always make a fuss of! Lovely to have a nice family coffee shop where you can come to meet your own family with the dogs!

We were staying for 1 night after a family get together. Checking in was very easy, with a key left outside your room, so you could check in at your leisure. Rooms were gorgeously furnished, with everything you could possibly need and very clean. Really pretty flower borders just outside our bedrooms. All of us slept well in the very comfortable beds. Breakfast was amazing and we felt well catered for as vegetarians. We’re looking for an excuse to come back and stay here, we had such a good stay!

Tucked away within an antiques emporium this little jewel. From entering the shop you’ll be greeted by a lovely gentleman. The food was exquisite made to order not mass produced. The taste out of this world. Skill, time and quality ingredients. We were blown away. Will definitely visit again! Worth seeking out!
