No: we do something different. If you fancy eggs, try the Masala Omelette pancake; for a sausage, our Vegan Lentil Sausage pancake.

Our pancakes are gluten-free: the batter is rice and lentils. Our kitchen also handles gluten, so if you have coeliac disease please read our gluten-free guide and tell us when you order.
