My husband and I tried this place on our visit to Stowe and honestly wish we would have went elsewhere. It's your job to go to the counter and order, as well as get your own water and coffee. We got 2 crepes and a cup of coffee and the total was 33 dollars. When paying there is a place for a tip and it was suggested 7 dollars. For what? The only service you are given is them bringing you your food to the table. Food was mediocre at best too. Also even though it is called the skinny pancake, they do not serve pancakes.

Food was great. Service was great. Cleanliness great. Food came fast. But really Irish folk music on a Sunday morning at full volume? Obnoxious and made it hard to peacefully enjoy our meal.

you have to order on your phone and pay and leave a tip before you even see a person. Took over an hour for our food. One order was wrong because they ran out of something and didn't tell us. Told us it takes so long because Door Dash overs take preference over people dining in house. Burgers tasted like they got them at Burger King.

I haven't even tried the food yet but the unpersonalized ordering process is a bit off-putting. There is a place to add a tip amount, but I have seen a real person yet.

Pretty good crepes but the kids menu is a bit on the pricey side. Kids burger for 11 bucks?!? You can get a kids burger almost any other place in Stowe for $6-7.

The most discriminative place i have ever been , very rude and they refused to give us a table because of our religion.

I am honestly confused with how I feel about this place. My first impression was that they were great and efficient. I put my name on the waitlist via Google (not sure if you're able to do on Yelp), and they gave us an eta of 20 mins. My party of 8 decided to put two names down for a table of 4 each. We got there just on time and we were all able to get seated right away. Not only that, the host was able to accommodate for us, and she gave us a table for 8 people instead of 2 separate tables (I let the host know that we were happy with whichever was easier for the restaurant). She was super friendly and it made super easy for us. At this restaurant, you scan a QR code where you can order your own food items, pay for it yourself, and then have the food served to us. I love restaurants that do this because it makes the whole dining process more efficient/quicker. However, that is not the case here. At least not from my experience. We placed our orders in, but we ended up waiting 50 minutes for our food with nobody checking up on us. For waters, you have to go up to the water fountain yourself to fill up your own cup of water - they have cups available above the fountain. My friend ordered a cup of coffee, and we were shocked when one of the servers gave her an empty cup and told her to fill it up at the coffee station. I personally didn't care too much about doing those things, but it got to me when I realized how long we had waited for food. Majority of my friends also tipped 20% during the checkout process to place our order, which we thought was unfair, since there was little to no service whatsoever, and at that time, we didn't expect to wait ~50 minutes. And there is where my confusion comes into play - the food is not bad at all. We all really enjoyed the poutine - the ratio of gravy, cheese curds, and french fries was perfect without one overpowering another. The texture of fries were great as well. It is hard to eat poutine when the fries are too crispy. My boyfriend and I shared the chocolate monkey crepe and the Johnny crepe. The chocolate monkey crepe is a sweet crepe with bananas and Nutella. The texture of the crepe was great, and I really enjoyed the filling. But it was nothing special. I can get this anywhere without having to wait 50 minutes. As for the Johnny crepe, it is a savory crepe with maple bbq pulled pork, caramelized onions, and a side of bbq sauce. This one I will wait 50 minutes for. The Johnny has got to be the best savory crepe I've ever had!! I HIGHLY recommend this. Home fries were great as well, and my Arnold Palmer was refreshing. Overall, I don't know if I missed a memo or something, but this brunch experience felt really unorganized and discombobulated in terms of what is expected from the staff and the customer. With all that being said, I would come back whenever I am in Stowe, but it wouldn't be a priority unless I had ample time to spare.

That was honestly a really disappointing experience. First of all it took over an hour for my group to get our food. When it finally arrived I found that my Heartbreaker crepe was missing the Nutella. I don’t understand how it’s possible to miss such an important ingredient… the crepe was just loose fruit rolled up in cold dough. I would have asked for a new crepe but I was not about to wait another hour, so I settled for a side of Nutella. It’s extra frustrating that service was so poor when we are expected to self serve our water and coffee. Overall the price of the food plus a full tip was really steep for what we got and I would not come back when there are so many other great restaurants close by.

The Skinny Pancake is right up there with being one of the best breakfast spots in Stowe! I HIGHLY recommend checking this place out, specifically if you love crêpes: that’s what this restaurant is known for! We have been here multiple times (and other locations) and have always been very happy with our meal. You just order at the counter and the food comes out very fast - it’s perfect if you’re just wanting a quick breakfast before you head out for the day and explore Stowe/Smuggs/Waterbury or beyond! It really doesn’t matter if you choose a sweet or savory crêpe - we’ve had both and they’re always excellent. And they even have gluten-free crêpes as well, which is awesome! Our favorites are the Hot Apple Crumble, Blueberry Pie, Lovemaker (add strawberries as well), Johnny Crepe, K-Pop, and Apple and Brie! All in all, fantastic little restaurant, and one you definitely need on your list next time you’re in Stowe!
Service was quite lacking but otherwise the food was worth the visit if you perhaps consider takeout instead.

We had Noah's Ark which we enjoyed. Staff was friendly, food came quickly, all in all we had a great breakfast. After we ate we used the easy access to the Stowe Recreation Trail behind the building.

Come here if you want to spend 3 hours of your day in wait. The app will say is a 15 min wait but you will actually sit waiting for an hour. Plus the wait for the food to come out of the kitchen. The food is ok but the waste of time really ruins the whole experience. I will not be coming back. Honestly not worth it.
