11 Of The Best Places For Pancakes In Western New York

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day...or at least that's what they used to say.  And there's nothing like a stack of fluffy pancakes to get it started.

According to the National Day Calendar, today is National Pancake Day.  You might think we've done this already this year.  We have.  There are two National Pancake Days.  There's the one in the spring that was originally started by IHOP on February 13th to raise money for charity, and there's the one today that was originally called Lumberjack Day.  It has since been changed to honor pancakes.  Either way, we won't complain about an excuse to get pancakes for two days out of the year.

So where do you like to go to get yours?

Pancakes are a pretty common food option here in the United States.  For the most part, people make them the same.  You make a batter, then put that batter on a grill then serve it to the customers.  So how is it so different at every single place you go?  The batter makes all of the difference.  Do you like it with buttermilk?  Do you like them thinner?  Or thick and fluffy?  Do you like them to be light or heavy?

Then there are the toppings...the things you can put in and on pancakes can take a pancake from just ok to something that you want in your belly every single day.

Everyone has their own opinion of what makes a great pancake, and because of that, the reasons that they choose one restaurant over another can vary.
