Pancakes are a classic breakfast and brunch staple for a reason. Easily customizable and hard to mess up as even the less-the-stellar options can be greatly improved with a generous dollop of syrup. Whether you prefer your flapjacks griddled on a greasy diner cooktop or beautifully curated and served with a tart compote at an artisanal shop, you're in luck because there's plenty of establishments around the state dishing out delicious stacks of pancakes.
According to a list compiled by Taste of Home, the "best pancakes" in all of Colorado can be found at Urban Egg in Colorado Springs. This popular eatery serves a selection of "fancy pancakes" in flavors like strawberry cheesecake, blueberry streusel and Fred's Hawaiian or even as a gourmet flight option that allows you to sample three different kinds to find your favorite.
Urban Egg has several locations around Colorado. Find out more by visiting the restaurant's website.
Here's what the site had to say about the fluffy stack served at this Centennial State favorite:
"The cinnamon swirl is the way to go at Urban Egg. It's cinnamon bun meets pancake batter drizzled with a powdered sugar glaze. Dietary restrictions are no problem here — vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are available."
