Very disappointing. The roof leaked downstairs, the female toilet was broken, they locked the replacement toilet several times. The barstaff kept disappearing. We rented the Knight Room as a venue and our dinner booking was bumped from 7:30 to 8:30pm. We were told we couldn’t order food for downstairs. When 9:30pm rolled around and we still hadn’t been seated they suddenly revealed we could order basic meals (wedges, etc). We were seated at 10pm. When our room booking ended at midnight we were evicted from downstairs in minutes and told our group could grab a table in the restaurant. When we did, we were told we had to leave or be charged with trespassing. I watched the same table sit empty for 45 minutes while we ate birthday cake in the street outside. The staff were rude and made it very clear that they have no interest in good service.

For a while I had the intention to eat at the Pancake Manor, passing by it once in a while and wondering what made it an icon in Brisbane. A few weeks ago I took the plunge and decided to, late at night, had something to eat there. I was impressed by the building, it’s been well kept and has wonderful arches and a beautiful ceiling. I ordered a Greek delight crêpe. What an atrocious meal. It was filled with feta and spinach. The feta in it was rubbery and the sludge of overcooked spinach made me gag. All swimming in a tasteless food coloring green sauce. I do have a huge tolerance for bad food (thanks to a less than skilled mom) but this place has earned the marks of the worst place I’ve ever eaten. Definitely not the twenty something dollars I paid for it.

Been here a few times, the food is ok, one of the very few places that stays open all the time.
