Pancs in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Stopped here as there were free tables to watch some performers. We asked for two glasses of wine. Sauvignon Blanc. When they came it was clear they weren’t SB but staff had all but disappeared so unable to question this. I was also asked to move my chair back which I had turned so I was side on rather than having my back to the performers. Chair with me in it was still in the same place, just turned the other way. I didn’t mind turning back, it was the way I was asked/ordered. Staff rude and unwelcoming. No wonder they had empty tables and everyone else was full.

Hi came here today with my boyfriend it was very quiet and two other tables in the restaurant and when we had placed our order it was all going fine, 45 minutes of waiting for pancakes only one table which was a family of 4 which had come in after us had received their order. We had then asked how long it would be, the manager had apologised and said we would be given a discount of our bill, we had then received our food around an hour later and it felt as though the pancake had been out for a while. These portions are not the biggest in the world and would definitely not of taken an hour to make. Within this time the waiter had only gone to tables once to give them their menu and then take their orders and it was near to impossible to get their attention to get another drink to the point you have to physically go up to them. When we received our bill they gave us the wrong one bill they did change it however, but the discount knocked about £1 off our bill wow it was very generous I thought. Just would not recommend overall poor service poor experience.

Me and my girlfriend went to go here for lunch as we were a bit hungry and fancied some crepes/pancakes. It initially started off really well, we got offered seats and menus quickly. After we had ordered we were left waiting for about at full hour for our meals, which were not large by any means. The pancakes were sub par and and tasted like they’ve been left out for a while. In short I’m in no rush to come back, terrible service, and would rather eat a horseshit sandwich.

Had a lovely experience , with great food and even better service. Thank you for a lovely lunch - and the complimentary water :).

Way too long of a wait for some bottled “cold pressed” juice, AND we got a 15% service charge for it. Would not come back. Pancakes looked good but we didn’t have a chance to order since the wait was too long.

Had started a new job opposite on the strand here and then lockdown happened. I enjoyed my pancake that I had for lunch on pancake day. I had the Oreo one, and it was very filling. It was a little too much on the sweet side for my personal taste. It was presented well and it’s enjoyable sitting in the courtyard here and listening to the music while eating pancakes here.

I got the salmon savoury crepe and it was delicious, great customer service would definitely recommend.

Old fashion shop in Covent Garden market where you can have delicious crepes and pancakes while you enjoy live music for the whole day. Good quality of food, fresh, big portion and beautiful presentation. Excellent service by the stuff, very friendly and kind. It’s always a pleasure come here! I recommend going!!

Came across this place by chance when looking for somewhere to rest our feet! Great service and delicious pancakes. We had 1 each and both were amazing. Also a Nutella hot chocolate and a flat white. Very very nice coffee. Will be back!

Came here with my husband today - he’s a pancake fan, I’m less bothered, but we were hungry and this place looked pretty quiet and in a nice location. Despite it being pretty quiet, the service was so slow - they were obviously short staffed, but really, it’s pancakes, what’s taking so long?! I had a mushroom crepe, which was ok, but nothing to write home about, husband had an apple cinnamon which he enjoyed and that’s the main thing, but all components were clearly shop bought and it was not a pretty thing - bit of a shame when something fresh and delicious could easily be made. Ok all in all, but we were frustrated with the service and think the price was a little high for mediocre food.

I was there with two friends. I took a gluten free salmon, i was super happy they did gluten free crepe. And my both friends took a crepe with beef inside. Everythinhg was jus excellent. The waitress was nice and professional to. I can only recommande this place. I will come back!! Thanks :)

If only I could give Panc 0 stars. Most inedible meal I've ever had. Went for brunch with a group of 5 other females. The service was slow and inattentive from the beginning. We knew from the moment we walked in, we were not welcome. After being told there was a 20 minute wait for a table in an empty restaurant, we started outside, then after no one came to move us in 20 minutes later, we decided to move in ourselves. The food came first, then the drinks 10 minutes after... After looking through Pancs Instagram my friends and I were excited for our meal, as soon as it was put on our table we didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Horrified that the company take pride in "Deliciously handcrafted pancakes" and we were given, two tiny pancakes which were rock solid and stone cold. The whole meal was inedible, and made us all feel sick. After speaking to the manager about this, he stated "Girls, this was partly your fault because when you ordered you should have stated you wanted a fresh batch of pancakes." False advertisement I think! After still making us pay 80% of this meal, we all left feeling disgusted and disappointed. The male manager was un-helpful and tried to blame us. Whatever you do, do NOT eat here. London has so many amazing places to offer, and Pancs could not be further from ANY of them. Disgusting

The restaurant was cozy and overall a good experience (the service was great)! Really enjoyed the "Glorious Mushroom Pancs", and the hot tea was exactly what we needed during a cold day.

Fanno degli ottimi pancakes iper conditissimi! Porzioni abbondanti. Il personale è molto gentile, locale tranquillo. Ho assaggiato anche dei succhi 100% frutta molto buoni. Fanno anche salato.

Mmhhh! Nous nous sommes rendus dans ce petit restaurant dans l’après-midi. Autant dire que tout est parfait! Le cadre: à côté d’une petite place où l’on peut entendre des musiciens de rue très talentueux. Le personnel: très aimable! La nourriture: parfaite! Nous avons pris, de la glace, des pancakes Nutella banane et des pancakes salés (jambon fromage). Le rapport qualité prix est excellent. Bref je recommande!

To the credit of the restaurant it is decorated well and in an ideal location but that’s about as far as the positives go. The first issue arose when we ordered American style pancakes, one of the two options, and the waiter told us they...

Stopped for a brief lunch before going for cocktails. The decor is lovely and there was a great atmosphere, helped in part to the live music performance in Covent Garden. Don't expect quick service or filling foods - it really is just a snack!

Me and my husband went inside for a pancake . We were told that the wait would be 10-15 min. After 20 minutes nobody came to take our order so we went inside and the "so called manager" had a terrible attitude, rilling his eyes...

Both me and my friends were really disappointed from the service. The waiter was really slow and arrogant. We noticed that there was no communication between the team since our order was wrong as well. When we wanted to pay the waiter told me with...

Went to Pancs this afternoon with my two little ones (4&6) and my hubby. Took a seat outside - after five or so mins no one had come to see us so I went in to ask how we could order. The so called ‘manager’...

I came here for a quick lunch whilst in London, but instead we were sat in this eatery for nearly 2 hours. The service was incredibly slow, and not at all professional - my mother was asked "Do you want that" whilst the member of...

We had a delicious brunch here during our stay in Covent Garden. My husband bought a groupon which was an amazing deal! We didn't realize that the groupon was for a specific time and arrived 2 hours early. We were a little irritated that they...

Great location, where professional artists perform classic music. Very friendly service, nice dessert wines and - great pancakes (we got the berrylicious one 🤗) We'll be back! 😋

The pancakes are good, fluffy but really too expensive ! I order the pancakes with salted caramel at 6.5 pounds and I had only two in my dishes ! The services was really bad no smiles, look like it’s the worst day ever ! Don’t...

This is a wonderful place, right in the heart of Covent Garden. Delicious pancakes & crêpes, a varied salad bar, and they serve excellent coffee too! The staff are super-friendly and charming. Highly recommend.

We waited at the sign that said “Wait here to be seated” but nobody served us despite the cafe being half empty & 2 members of staff within spitting distance of us. I asked twice if we could sit ourselves outside so our daughter could...

Fantastic location in the heart of Covent Garden. The buskers were superb (we had an opera singer & string quartet in the half hr we were there). However the service was poor, with a long wait to be seated in a half empty restaurant. There...

Très bonne petite pause goûter, crêpes pancakes. Par contre le service est à revoir, aucun sourire, aucune aide pour les...

Great food at a reasonable price and you are sitting smack dab in the middle of Covent Garden. The buskers are quite good and they add to the 'experience'

We just dropped by to have a cup of coffee while visiting the Covent Garden area. The location is fantastic as in the evening there were extremely talented guitarists and singers right outside the restaurant. The cafe's location provides a great seat to witness the...

Was served by Tasos for a snack and coffee. Really tasty wraps and friendly service! Great spot in Covent Garden as there are usually musical performers in the area.

We loved the pancakes 🥞!! Really nice quality and taste and amazing service :) Tasos made our day with his good energy!

Great pancakes and very friendly service. Some of the moany reviews on here seem ultra unfair. People just moan! We'll be back 😍

Took three children who all loved the very chocolatey pancakes, savoury pancakes were also excellent. Service was fast and friendly. Highly reccomended

This establishment had truly the worst service of my entire life. The male waiter was incredibly rude. He was condescending and made snide comments the three minutes we were in there. Basically, the interaction ended with a member of our group asking if he wanted...

Visited with my daughter and lucky enough to get an outside table with quartet playing classical music, closely followed by an opera singer. Great friendly service and a good choice. Only downside was they had run out of apple and cinnamon. She chose salted caramel...

Eating my delicious crepe drinking my colorful coffee while having the best view of beautiful opera singers. I can't imagine of a better place to start your day. Totally recommend it!

Heureusement qu’il y avait un orchestre (de rue)... Sinon, c’était un naufrage: les plats étaient insipides, l’attente interminable (une demi...

And there, among all shops and after being asked not to stay somewhere else unless for a minimum consumption of 30 UK pds each, PANCS was the unique Covent Garden place to stop and relax for a cup of coffee and snack. We tried both...

I really don't get all the negative comments! I went there today with my wife and we had a great time! The staff - and especially Tassos - were great! That you all for the whole experience!

considering they were quiet we were told they were busy with a 10 minute wait. Sat opposite the kitchen nothing happened in there for a good 10 minutes. What came was nice enough but it was slow, probably better places to go.

We weren't in London for long, but we passed by this place one night and wanted to try it the next day. Their website said 10 AM- 6 PM. We got there at 11- closed. We came back at 3 and were told that they...

So rude. But apparently common practice for them to not open as per info person at Covent garden. Do not buy on Groupon.

The most basic food I've tried since the days of stale cheese rolls in the pub, 30 years ago. Staff were clueless and repeatedly got orders wrong. It was embarrassing and I certainly would not recommend.

Perfect view of the performers from this tucked away little treasure. Watch the world go by inside or at a table outside! I had the smoked salmon panc and a small glass of wine 😊
