What makes a day out with the whole family complete? That's right, pancakes! In Venlo and its village centres, there are many pancake houses or restaurants where this classic is on the menu. It doesn't get much more Dutch, although nowadays you can also enjoy fluffy American pancakes in many places.
We have listed a number of absolute recommendations for you!
Grand Café Deckers
At the Nolensplein you can go to Grand-Café Deckers for classic pancakes. From sweet to savoury like a pancake with Nutella or bacon and mushrooms but also the slightly more exotic flavour combinations like camembert with pineapple!
Grenswerk Café
At Grenswerk Café, the café of Poppodium Grenswerk, they give a twist to the pancake as we know it. Of course you can go for a pancake with powdered sugar and syrup. But why would you do that when you can also order a 'Spektakel'? With Oreo cookies, popcorn and chocolate sauce.
The sugar high can then be played off in the play corner!
Café Bruxelles
At Café Bruxelles they understand it well. You can have breakfast all day long, with homemade pancakes like the 'Caramalized Lady' with caramelized apple crumble or the savory 'Spektacular' with - how could it be otherwise? - bacon, apple, cheese and maple syrup!
Pannenkoekenhuis Jagersrust in Velden
Of course, the Jagersrust pancake house in Velden cannot be missing from this list. The pancake house has been baking the most delicious pancakes for 40 years. With toddler and preschooler pancakes and an extremely well-stocked menu for people with a bigger appetite, it is a real treat.
The fact that the restaurant is located in the middle of a fantastic nature reserve, has a large playground and borders a real Smokkelpad makes the party complete!
Milk and Cookies
At the Parade you can go to Milk & Cookies for an all day breakfast. Coffee, fresh orange juice and of course pancakes! With fresh fruit, cookie crumbs and clotted cream, peanut butter with banana, Greek yoghurt and walnut or pancakes for the kids that they can decorate themselves.
Pannenkoekenrestaurant De Bosrand in Arcen
What's even better than a petting zoo and a pancake restaurant? Pancakes and a round of mini golf of course! In Arcen, you can do it, at Pancake and Specialty Restaurant De Bosrand to be precise.
Restaurant Oelespot
De Oelespot is a special place in Tegelen where you can relax. They have small, large and pampering pancakes on the menu. Combine your visit to De Oelespot with a walk through the magically beautiful nature reserve 't Jaomerdal or visit Emmaus Feniks.
