Pancakes on the Rocks: Menu and restaurant locations

The Pancakes on the Rocks restaurant chain is mainly based in Sydney, and its multiple option pancake menu is the major part of the appeal.

Pancakes on the Rocks is an Australian chain restaurant, which started as a single pancake joint in Sydney’s historic Rocks neighbourhood.

The original Pancakes on the Rocks restaurant opened on Hickson Road, Sydney, in August 1975. For almost two decades it was a lone soldier, specialising largely in the pancakes that the name suggests.

In 1994, however, there was a change of plan. A new Pancakes on the Rocks menu came in, with pizzas, a range of salads plus beef and pork ribs added to the mix. Before long, the original Rocks restaurant became a popular spot for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
