My Old Dutch (London)

Conveniently located in High Holborn, My Old Dutch has recently become my favourite place to go for lunch after class on a Monday. Why? On Mondays, they have an amazing deal where all their savoury and sweet pancakes are sold for only £5. Considering that I could spend a similar amount at a place like Pret, My Old Dutch's Monday Madness is incredible.

I've tried their chilli con carne pancake, the smoked salmon one, and the banana/nuts/cream/chocolate combo - and everything has tasted great so far. Thin, soft pancake and rich, flavoursome fillings, whether it be sweet or savoury. Despite the low cost, the pancakes are huge and stuffed to the brim. I'd recommend this place for a yummy and casual lunch with friends. I haven't sampled their milkshakes yet, but with flavours like oreo, nutella, and kinder bueno available, I'll definitely be back to try.

The only thing is, with the 'madness' of the deal on Monday also comes the 'madness' of their service. Both times I've been they have either messed up or been slow with an order. If you're going with a large group, you may also have to wait for a bit. I'd still say it's worth it for an amazing 5£ pancake though!
