Helga's Pancake House - CAIRNS CITY

Several sweet and savory pancake options. I found the pancakes pretty tight.

They separate vegan menu with a lot of choice. pancakes were filled with sufficient beats. maple syrup on the table for the uble use. easy on the expensive side.

Seperate vegan menu that was easy to find on the counter, heaps of options! Delicious, only problem was they were served on paper plates which im guessing is some sort of covid thing.

So good we came back again. We had breakfast here twice on our short weekend stay in Cairns. We all loved our food, the staff are really friendly and service was fast. Has a dedicated vegan menu, the kids menu can be veganised too.

There is a dedicated vegan menu offering a range of savoury and sweet pancakes, and waffles. You have to ask for the menu, or go get it yourself if the waitress forgets (as mine did, very busy and distracted). The pancakes here are not traditional thin pancakes; rather they are thick as two planks, fluffy, sweet, and taste strongly of buckwheat. The first pancake is delicious, the second one becomes a bit of a slog. Next time I'd wrap the second one up for later. They really go the extra mile to match the vegan version to its non-vegan counterpart. My vegan pancakes had two flavours of chocolate chips, ice cream, and even a vegan marshmallow. It looked identical to the non vegan version that my friend ordered. They can also make any of the smoothies on the menu vegan at no extra cost. Edit: I came back here and tried the waffles and they were out of this world!! We also met the owner (her name is not Helga, oddly enough) and she made sure to tell me that all the milkshakes on the menu can be made vegan too. A vegan will never feel left out when dining here!
