Went there on a raining Sunday afternoon, the place wasn't packed, there were a couple of groups at tables. We were seated, ordered hot chocolates and pancakes.
The hot chocolates came straight away. We ordered the basic pancakes with jam and cream.
Waited 45 minutes and noticed people that came in after U.S. We're getting their meals.
I finally got the waitress's attention and asked her if our order was coming. She said it had been forgotten.
It was getting late and we had to leave.
So we left without getting our pancakes. They gave us our hot chocolates on the house.
I was seriously annoyed enough to not want to go there again.

Have visited this establishment for over 10 years and has always been top notch - until recently when it changed hands - poor service and average to bad food. Sad to see. The place used to be packed on a weekend - now you can practically sit where you like - says it all really.

Approximate cost: $30

I agree. There was such a lovely atmosphere but no longer. The new management have killed it - poor service, poor food.

This is a great place for breakfast and lunch in the Dandenongs. Their pancakes are better than pancake parlours and your get the ambience as well being the Dandenongs.

Went there for lunch with my friend. We both just got a stack of pancakes.
They were deliciously fluffy.
Atmosphere was nice, though a bit empty for lunchtime. We were almost the only ones in there.
Waitress was nice, made sure we had everything we needed and that we were enjoying the meal.
Overall it wasn't too expensive either, which was surprising as most of the restaurants in the hills tend to be a bit more costly.
Would definitely go back.

This is a gorgeous little place to eat. They have a great menu and the food is very nice. I have tried the sweet and savory pancakes and both are yummy. The décor is decorated lovely and the staff are pleasant. And you can help yourself to a few peppermints on the way out.

A fairly casual restaurant, decent food and decent prices. Nothing overly special but great for a quick meal out. Some lovely specials, and old favourites on the menu as well.

Approximate cost: $20

I wish to retract my review, as my recent trip to Flippin' Pancakes was not what it was. It is no-longer the fantastic restaurant I reviewed. The owners appear to have changed and so has the quality of food on the menu, the service and the atmosphere. The salmon was dry and half the things on the menu weren't available. All the staff have changed and the wait for food was ridiculous. It has been a terrible disappointment.

Previous review:
Absolutely fantastic! The waitresses are great, ask for their favourites and you'll never be disappointed! The kangaroo is the best I've ever tasted and the fish is beautiful. We now go there for most family occasions. We often take friends and family there too and no matter who we bring with us, they're always new fans. The menu has all kkinds of savoury and sweet pancakes and crepes, but the daily specials are mostly non-pancake mains. All serving sizes are very generous, so you may want to share desert. The pancakes are good, but it's the daily specials YOU MUST TRY!

Approximate cost: $17-30

I love this place! The interior is like my Nanna's house. Doilies, fresh flowers, pretty plates on display. The pancakes are nice, cheap and quick to come out. The service is always polite and friendly.

Good pancakes but nothing outstanding. Service was friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant was nice.

They are a really cute and old restaurant. Very historic looking. It' like the pancake parlor only half the price. Great service and friendly people. The food is nice and good quality. great for a budget dinner.
