After being seated (by a waiter) and after 30 min or so, nobody took my order. Clearly neglected by the staff (people who came after me were served straightaway). Quite disappointing experience.
Very disappointed. I ordered Nutella pancakes as the main, with whipped cream as a side, and Ferrero Rocher chocolates an extra. They gave me an extremely thin pancake which was basically a crepe, filled it with sugar, put five dollops of cream, and 3 Ferrero Rocher chocolates carelessly cut up in half to look like 6. After that, I had to wait another 3 minutes to get the Nutella, the actual main part of my order, which was served in a paper cup similar to the ones used for sauces at McDonalds. The Nutella was obviously quite old as it was difficult to spread on my sugar filled pancake. Not one person who worked at 'My Old Dutch' was even Dutch - they clearly didn't know how to serve the food properly. Also, the tables are too small in order to fit the huge plates in which they serve their food. Very disappointed.
I liked the variety of pancake options but as a dutch person, but the quality wasnt great. The wholepoffertjes situation was a bit sad as they were just heated up and displayed in an odd way on a plate with awkwardly positioned butter and lack of powdered sugar. The chocolate sauce (chocolate and coconut oil?) was very… interesting. (3/5)
I recently had the pleasure of dining at My Old Dutch, a popular pancake restaurant in South London known for its delectable array of both sweet and savory pancakes. While the pancakes were certainly delightful, what truly stole the show for me were the chili fries. The moment I took the first bite of those perfectly crispy fries with just the right amount of heat from the chili, I knew I had stumbled upon something truly special. The blend of flavors and textures in those fries was simply unparalleled, making it a standout dish in the menu. Despite the restaurant's reputation for its pancakes, it was the chili fries that left a lasting impression on me. If you find yourself craving the best fries in all of South London, look no further than this hidden gem of a pancake restaurant. In addition to the outstanding food offerings, I must commend the exceptional service provided by the staff. The male waiter and young waitresses who attended to our table were not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly accommodating.
Great pancakes spot in kings road. Affordable prices. I had the savoury Greek pancake and it was yummy.
