  I find myself saying this alot - so much more than pancakes . That being said the pancakes are good and a good starting point . One of the unique features of this place is you cook em pancakes right at the table . They are billed as an appetizer but can be a meal unto themselves . Usually 4 batters to choose from - buttermilk , peanut butter , gluten free and seasonal ( this month was sweet potato - so yummy . they have done Zuchinni , apple cinnamon as well as others ) . If you don't feel like cooking they ccan cook em for you . it doesn't stop there .They offer a full menu of things to put in them - choco chip , blue cheese , bacon , corizo , and so much more . If that's not enough try a variety of syrups to choose from - traditional , blueberry , apple , and organic upon request . For a butter lover like me all i have to do is ask and more whipped butter is on the way .

they have indulged us a few times and we brought in our pancake mold from sonoma - williams for some fun .



sometimes we just make our own designs .

So ..... you might be asking what else they got . how about a coffee and booze ? they offer bloddy marys with bacon .

coffee mocha

bloody mary

chicken fried bacon - this is good pure evil ! bacon battered , deep fried and topped with caramel sauce . I am hard pressed to make a trip here without eating some of this .

slappy benedict - eggs benedict with proscutio and homemade english muffins 

Quinoa salad - topped with a champagne vinigrette

forrest scramble - forrest mushrooms , spinach , leeks , lardoons ,eggs , goat cheese .

classic slappy cheese burger - it's fresh ground chuck done there and tillamook cheese .

Pulled pork sandwich and cinnamon roll

Buscuits and Gravy - they serve it a tad spicy

Gypsy toast - brioche french toast stuffed with apples and drizzled with caramel sauce

Slappy cakes has become an escape for me and it's just as much about that friendly peple that work there as it is the fresh food . They have their own herb garden out back and everything is locally sourced .

so here's my indulgent moment at slappy cakes . a burger so big they jokingly dubbed it a man vs food challenge and man won in 11 minutes . Fresh ground chuck burger , mushrooms , avocado , tomato , lettuce pickle , proscuttio , bacon ,  egg , goat cheese , blue cheese , and tillamook cheese . oh yeah baby , it was that good :)

to avoid the lines show up at 8 am or 1:30 otherwise grab some sidewalk chalk and a cup of joe and throw your name on the list . it's worth the wait .
