It was in June 1965 that three friends – Helen and Roger Meadmore, and Allen Trachsel – opened a little café in Adelaide called The Pancake Kitchen. The menu was limited, but mouth-watering pancakes had finally arrived in Australia. The 4 Market Lane restaurant was a huge success from Day One. The t-shirted and friendly staff reflected the relaxed attitudes of the time. That is why people happily queued to get in to sample the atmosphere and the delectable pancakes, whether topped with strawberries or spicy beef. Later, Roger headed north to Sydney, where he opened Pancakes on the Rocks. Over the ensuring decades, restaurants opened seemingly everywhere as the demand for Helen and Allen’s pancakes spread into the countryside (Frankston, Ballarat, Lorne) and Roger’s as far north as Coolangatta and Brisbane. However, the most dramatic change came with the opening of super-sized shopping centres in suburban areas. When multiplex cinemas were progressively added, The Pancake Parlour decided to open its new restaurants next to them in the shopping malls. People no longer had to drive for 30 minutes or more to the city to get a pancake. This strategy still thrives today, for what more could you want before or after a movie than a pancake and a great drink (the list now including wine and cocktails). With Allen’s sad passing in 2004, and the retirements of Roger and Helen, The Pancake Parlour is now managed by Helen and Roger’s son, Simon. Now, 50 years later, the Melbourne icon has 10 Melbourne locations, with two new restaurants due to open in July 2015. The Pancake Parlour’s CEO, Simon Meadmore, is leading The Pancake Parlour in exciting new directions, with expanded menus and a modern style of architecture and design. “In recent years we have undergone a major re-design with a bold new vision and look,” Mr Meadmore said, “but we still honour the unique and loveable elements of our past. The re-design includes everything from graphic design and restaurant architecture to a subtle culinary revolution.” In fact, Mr Meadmore believes the evolution of The Pancake Parlour has only just begun. “We stay relevant because we move with the times. We are constantly creating new dishes, with a strong social-media presence and a passionate commitment to technology.” Meadmore is continuing his re-invigoration of The Pancake Parlour with showcase new restaurants and cocktail bars, while continuing to treasure all that has made The Pancake Parlour a Melbourne institution for five decades. “The one thing that never changes is our unyielding devotion to the pancakes on which we have made our name over the past 50 years.” 1980s 1990s 2000 - 2015 Expands to the suburbs, with The expansion across Victoria knows With Allen Trachsel’s passing in 2003, Simon Meadmore pancakes served 24 hours a day no bounds, from Chadstone to becomes CEO and leads The Pancake Parlour in exciting new in places like Doncaster and all Highpoint and Northland.
