This Pancake Day, there’s a restaurant in Manchester’s Northern Quarter dishing up unlimited portions of pancakes and it sounds absolutely brilliant.
Priced at £13.50 for 30 minutes off non-stop servings, if you think you can manage to eat your body weight in pancakes then this might just be for you.
Taking place at cultural hub Ducie Street Warehouse, your unlimited serving of pancakes can come loaded with everything from Nutella and maple syrup to mixed berries, cinnamon sugar and more.
Toppings-wise, it’s up to you to choose what to go for. As well as a selection of sweet toppings, there’ll also be something for the savoury pancake fans out there including added extras like bacon and eggs, as well as some vegan alternatives too.

As for the pancakes themselves, diners should expect stacks of fluffy American-style beauties – so if you’re into crepes on Pancake Day, you’re probably best off going somewhere else.

With this year’s Pancake Day taking place on Tuesday 21 February, the offer will run from breakfast to tea time starting at 10am and finishing at 5pm.

Pancake fans are invited to head to the pancake station to collect their goodies, then mix and match up to three different toppings to create their own unique stack.
Once they’re done, they’re welcome to head up and get another plateful – with no limit on how many times they can refill on pancakes during the 30 minute time slot.

“Manchester is by far the most requested location we’ve had since we started sharing our journey online,” explained SpudBros co-founder, Jacob Nelson.
“It’s a city that has always seemed to elude us despite the incredible demand, so bringing SpudBros to Trafford Centre feels particularly special.
“Both Harley and I grew up visiting Trafford Centre, so to now be bringing the tram here for a week-long pop-up is a genuine full-circle moment. We’re excited to give people in Manchester a taste of what we do, whether they’ve followed our journey from the beginning or are discovering us for the first time.”
