Best pancakes in town

Yum! This morning for breakfast we went to the Grove Cafe. It's at the end of Main Street and once you step inside it's like walking back in time to the old cafes of yesteryear. Homey. Cosy. And the coffee greets you the moment you walk in the door.

The Grove's big claim to fame, at least in our circle of friends, is their pancakes. They're the best in town! The first time we ate there, we entered through the back door.

Inside, we sat down at the counter and browsed the menu board. We'd heard about the pancakes, and decided we should try them first. I was about to order a short stack when Jamie cautioned me and said I might want to start with one and order another if I was still hungry later. That was brilliant advice. I couldn't finish the first one! Instead, I took half of it home for later. The pancakes are golden in color, thick, light and fluffy and super delicious. One cake fills the whole plate. I would have taken a photo, but didn't want to set down my fork so you'll just have to go yourself to see what they're like.

Usually they have regular and a special one too. Last week's special pancake was raspberry rhubarb. The first time we went it was pumpkin. This morning it was peach.

Just in case you want to give the Grove Cafe a try, here are their hours.

You might want to get there early. The food's so good, you'll likely have to wait for a seat. Rest assured, you'll be glad you went and won't mind the wait.
