Finally! A truly great and amazing breakfast restaurant in Gold Coast where you are consistently guaranteed a satisfying meal in the morning. No words can describe how thankful I am that I not only found this restaurant but that it serves real pancakes. Be sure to also try their scrambled eggs and Eggs Benedict. Pure Deliciousness

Approximate cost: $18

I had breakfast at Pancakes in Paradise and I found them better then Pancake Manor. I tried the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and two butter pancakes and did not regret it. Poached eggs cooked perfectly (runny) and light fluffy pancakes.

Approximate cost: $13

Great place for pancakes on the Gold Coast. Service was friendly and helpful and I really enjoyed my meal. Good value here too. <3 Will be back next time I'm up at the Gold Coast

The all-you-can eat deal would be better if a) the pancakes were tastier and b) you didn't have to wait 20 minutes just to order your second serving. It's like they know if you have to wait 30 minutes for your third pancake, you won't feel like eating any more. I also had to walk from our table (at the very back of the cafe) to the cash register area up front to ask for a coffee refill. The staff are very friendly but I'd prefer good service over good humour.

Pancake in Paradise. Best place for pancakes on the Gold Coast. We always go here for treat when we visit the gold coast. Had the Canadian Brekkie last time I was there. It was yummo. Daughter had Alice in Wonderland. Food and Service is always excellent. Staff are very friendly and the pancakes are yum.

On entering these premises I took note of the abundance of timber used in the surroundings, balustrades, wall panelling, tables and chairs and several booths some of which had an overhead canopy resembling hot air balloons which made it a very impressive environment. The menu consisted of an array of crepes, pancakes and other selections. A couple in our party had the all day breakfast, I had the cheese, bacon and potato pancake whilst my wife had the wedges all serves were more than ample and were most tasty. There was a good selection of beverages to wash it all down. To finish off we had five smaller pancakes with jam, cream and maple syrup...superb???. The staff were very friendly, obliging, helpful and quite talkative. And in accordance with their hot air balloon theme their motto is "Light as Air" very appropriate. If you happen to be in Surfers Paradise, make sure you take a look at this place. You won't be disappointed.

Having been to this place some years ago,I had to take my hubby, sister and brother-in-law to dine here. The service is fantastic and the menu includes both savoury and sweet meals. Whether you want a 2 course meal or just some delicious sweet pancakes, I recommend Pancake Paradise. Very friendly service!

Came here about a year ago with a friend for breakfast. I had the waffles with ice cream and my friend had the pancakes. Was soo delicious and the servings were huge. Too huge to finish as it was very sweet. The staff were all really friendly and on top of things, we will be going back again on our next GC visit.

I ate here on my recent holiday to the Gold Coast as I had some other friends that recommended it. I wasn't disappointed. The pancakes were delicious but they got a bit sickly towards the end of the meal and I couldn't finish my serve of strawberry pancakes!

Probably the only downside to our dining experience was the slow staff - I'm not sure if they were having a bad day or if they were just understaffed. They were friendly enough but it felt like we had to try to get the waiter's attention rather than them coming around to check on us.

Approximate cost: $10

This is a great place for a reasonably priced and quick meal. We usually go for breakfast on the weekend, it can be really really busy especially during school holidays but we have always managed to get a table. The pancakes are so light and fluffy and are always served fresh. The meals are of a good quality, eg the bacon and eggs are not just fatty bacon, it's really lean and cooked crispy and the eggs are large ones and always taste yummy. The service can sometimes be a little bit slow when they are flat out, but for the price you cannot beat it.

Approximate cost: $12

I have taken my kids here for a special birthday breakfast for years now. It is quite a different atmosphere with the big balloon and booths everywhere but it's so cheap for what you get and the kids have a ball choosing their meal with the more chocolate and sweetness the better. A favourite for my kids is the chocolate sauce and sprinkles with cream and ice cream piled all over these big fat fluffy pancakes, how they get through it I'll never know but we haven't left it behind yet! It is quite an old restaurant but well and truly worth a visit but don't eat before you go as meals are huge.

this place was ok, the staff was a bit slow to get the order out and the eggs were a little under done, my son enjoyed his pancakes though and drinks size is small for its price. so i guess it was ok.

Approximate cost: $16.00

Great place for pancakes, both savoury and sweet. Macadamia pancakes are delicous and milkshakes in all sorts of flavours. Reasonably prices for a descent stack of pancakes, a must try!

creativecat3 14 May 2012

Yes, the milkshakes in the most incredible flavours, everyone wants to try everyone elses on the table, it is a fun place to share with the family.

Waiters need to keep an eye on who comes in. We were waiting with our menus down flat on the table & two other tables were served before us and we were seated before them both. Finally a waiter walked past & asked if we had ordered. Food was good, pancakes are awesome & didn't wait long for food. Bacon was bit too salty but we would go back!

What can I say - OMG YUMMMM. I absolutely love the passionfruit pancakes - best in town - and great value for money considering I can never finish the meal and you can be sure that you will never leave hungry. Can pay to book the day before as sometimes it can be really busy in there. Can't wait for my next breakfast there!

The place is themed with hot air balloons. Some of the booths are actual hot air balloon baskets that you can sit in which is pretty cool especially for the kids. (and big kids!) The pancake servings are pretty good sized, and the all you can eat pancakes for $7.95 is good value if you are a big eater. I like the Canadian Breakfast. The nachos are ok too if you don't want pancakes. If you can get hold of a two for one voucher it's even better value. (try shopadockets online)

Approximate cost: $12+
