Pancakes near West Windsor, NJ

“Great place for brunch on the weekends. Gets pretty busy waiting for a table but we were able to sit at the counter immediately. We got the chicken and waffles and the puerco old fashioned potato cake. The waffle was nice and crispy but the chicken was just plain chicken tenders. The puerco was flavorful with just the right amount of spicy but it could’ve been a little crispier around the edges.“

“Visited solo 5/16/26. Very busy on a Saturday at brunchtime. There were a lot of families celebrating graduations. Super expensive for pancakes, but that's every place anymore. It's a nice restaurant. I'd go back for a light occasion but not casually again like I did today. $28 for 2 hotcakes, 2 eggs, 2 strips of bacon, a breakfast sausage and a bottomless cup of coffee including a 20% tip rounded up. The buttermilk pancakes were very good. #CakeyFlatAndRound“

“A true Princeton staple.

PJ’s has that classic, lively breakfast energy—busy in the best way, with a line that moves quickly and is well worth the wait.

The pancakes are the highlight (for good reason), and everything is consistently well done. It’s the kind of place where you know you’re going to get a solid, satisfying meal every time.

The atmosphere is warm and a bit tight, but that’s part of the charm. It feels lived-in and authentic rather than overly polished.

A go-to spot for breakfast or brunch—we’ve been here multiple times and always enjoy it.“
