Don’t fancy the mess and stress of Pancake Day this year? While pancakes are a universally loved sweet treat, sometimes we’d rather avoid a flour-covered kitchen and look elsewhere for our pancake fix. So, if you’re eating out this Pancake Day, we’ve rounded up some of our favourite spots, whether your preference is American-style or French-style, sweet or savoury. Take a look below for some of the best places to go for pancakes in and around Stoke-On-Trent this Pancake Day.

Housed in a stunning ex-bank building on Stone’s historic High Street, BEAR Coffee’s brunch menu boasts some tasty dishes, but would it really be brunch without pancakes?

For a slightly healthier twist, their banana and berry pancakes are not one to miss. BEAR is the busiest coffee spot in town, and it’s no wonder.
