Best Dutch Pancakes?

[jbrinkm]

I know a lot of people go to and enjoy Willem's, but it appears that there are other Dutch Pancake places somewhat near the pier. Has anyone gone to a different place and enjoyed the food? Did you find (that place) less expensive or less crowded?

Dutch Panacake House in the Rennaisance Marketplace down LG Smith Blvd.

 

And then up in Palm Beach Linda's Dutch Pancakes ( an institution). Prices range from $12.50-$19.50 depending upon the fillings/toppings.  DIY start at $7.50 and fillings/toppings are around $2.50 each. And Diane's Pancake Place (unknown quality or prices).

@crewsweeper, do you know if Linda's does take-out orders?  thanks!

I second the Dutch Pancakehouse in the Renaissance Marketplace. It’s about a 15 minute walk from where we docked. We went around 0930 and probably waited 15-20 minutes for a table. Worth the wait. One of us had a sweet pancake (almost like a crepe) and the other had the small pancakes (Dutch work starts with a “p”). Both delicious.

Is Willem's crowded on Sundays?

Yes those - I was too lazy to be bothered to check the spelling

I’d go over to Trip Advisor and post the question in the appropriate forum. You’re more likely to get an answer from someone who has observed how busy they are on multiple days. Better chance of accurate info since your question is specific 😊
 

On the cruise forums, most posters are only in the city for their single port day, which has a 1 in 7 chance of being on a Sunday (although some may have made port several times or had a land vacation there, they’re probably in the minority).
