    Bagels and coffee are a 5/5 and the pancakes are a 4/5. The hungry pancake has a nice kick to it spice wise.

    Stopped in on the way to Spa to see the F1 race. What a nice small breakfast spot. The pancakes are very creative and fluffy, there were some nice options and the presentation was awesome. The cafe is nice and well decorated with some nice animal artwork. The staff was very friendly. I would stop in here anytime!

    This place is such cozy and lovely. I had here the best sandwich from my life "Bagel". And the cappuccino's are also great 👍! Nice place to start your day, if you come in the center of Leuven

    Nice atmosphere. Staffs are friendly and welcoming. I ordered the Holy dark pancake which is with banana, speculoos crumble, dark chocolate sauce and cashew spread. I added a scoop of ice cream for extra and it cost only €0.5 👍🏼 Their pancakes are huge, very chewy. They have also plenty choice of savour pancakes, bagels etc. Come and try!

    (Translated by Google) The place is cute ❤️. It has a small space, but very nice and cozy. They have different options of sweet and savory pancakes. We went at lunch and one pancake per person was enough, we left there satisfied. (Original) O local é uma gracinha ❤️. Tem um espaço pequeno, mas muito agradável e aconchegante. Eles possuem diferentes opções de panquecas doces e salgadas. Fomos na hora do almoço e uma panqueca por pessoa foi suficiente, saímos de lá satisfeitos.

  • 5/5 Ian M. 2 years ago on Google
    Love the art (obviously 😊). The people are friendly and the food is amazing. I just love the Hungry Neighbors and the Works. Two savory pancakes that you would never expect.

  • 4/5 Jeroen G. 2 years ago on Google
    Omg pancakes in Leuven. They are delicious. Try the bacon and bell pepper one, you will expect it savory, but it's sweet and gorgeous in your mouth.

  • 5/5 Anda O. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice cozy place in Leuven. We always stop here when we visit the city. The food just makes you happy. The pancakes are great. Both the vegan and non-vegan bagels are deliciously balanced. The staff is also super friendly.

  • 5/5 José M E. 2 years ago on Google
    Very very nice place. Pancakes were delicious.

  • 5/5 Sunny 1 year ago on Google
    Went several times. I ordered all different things and they are all very good! The portion can be too much for one girl. But perfect for a meal.

  • 4/5 Ruba A. 4 years ago on Google
    Pricy but very cosy and delicious..

  • 5/5 Ilse L. 1 year ago on Google
    Pancakes were fluffy, delicious and a generous portion. Good options for sweet or savory pancakes. Options for vegan meals too.

  • 1/5 Miriam De M. 4 years ago on Google
    Maybe they have great pancakes, but I don’t think they care about the customer. Checking in advance we actually made a reservation only to find out that it was not honored when we showed up. We were even told we had made a mistake. They made no effort whatsoever, ignored the situation and left me and my party, some of which still had to come, without recourse.

  • 4/5 Aleksa L. 1 year ago on Google
    Coffie is great, enjoyed the food. Overall nice experience.

  • 5/5 Andrew P. 1 year ago on Google
    An exceptional Brunch place in Leuven. A personal favourite for pancakes and coffee. Highly recommend trying this Gem.

  • 5/5 Tegan 1 year ago on Google
    Been here several times, tried hungry neighbors and the works. Both are tasty but liked hungry neighbors more, because it comes with scrambled eggs. The portion is big, love the sweet and salty taste. The latte is also quite nice. The only thing is that the kitchen is open, but it’s not a big problem.

  • 5/5 Nuray Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Best bagel ever. I have been Leo Pancakes countless times. Great food, wonderful coffee and cosy environment. Love that it’s family run. It’s a business who values the customers, genuinely. Chicken bagel and calypso (fluffy pancakes) are my regular go to. One of the top places in town.

  • 5/5 Aly H. 1 year ago on Google
    Cozy place and delicious twisted food. We had a very pleasant moments there and we will back for sure

  • 5/5 Xènia Colomer M. 1 year ago on Google
    Small and cozy place, perfect for weekend pancakes :) service might be a bit too slow, but the pancakes are *excellent*

  • 5/5 João Neves E. 1 year ago on Google
    The best place I’ve been to for Pancakes overall! It is so good that I happen to go there every now and then. All pancakes on the menu worth trying!

  • 1/5 Isabela B. 11 months ago on Google
    35 minutes before closure and the kitchen was no longer taking orders. Used to love this place, would come all the way from Gent to eat here, but this is the kind of behaviour that we really loses me as customer. Never more.

  • 5/5 Miren R. 11 months ago on Google
    Great range of vegan pancakes, generous portions and friendly service. I don't think they take reservations and they were starting to get busy even by 09:30 on a Saturday so either turn up when they open or be prepared to wait.

  • 5/5 Hugo R. 10 months ago on Google
    Really nice place for breakfast or lunch. Had amazing pancakes with some eggs and bacon. Really good cafe Latte as well. Very friendly service!

  • 5/5 Uliana K. 10 months ago on Google
    Honestly, this is my favourite place to eat breakfast. Very tasty pancakes and bagels. They also have granola for granola lovers and big choice of coffee, tea and even some beer. The portions are huge, so if u eat a lot that’s the place for you. I, personally, can’t eat that much but it’s still very delicious. 5 stars to this cafe. Bravo)

  • 4/5 Maya R. 7 months ago on Google
    It takes a bit long for the food to comes out, but overall taste was good. A little too pricey tho imho.

  • 5/5 Jonas D. 9 months ago on Google
    Cosy place in city center of Leuven, but a bit hidden in a small street. Delicious pancakes and bagels + good coffee.

  • 4/5 Caroline B. 7 months ago on Google
    I visited this place twice - once for a quick lunch and another time for coffee.Location of the restaurant is good, in the middle of the shopping district in a pedestrian street. The restaurant has a nice and relaxing atmosphere. I enjoyed my bagel, but one negative aspect was that the owner's dog was freely roaming around in the restaurant (and possibly even in the kitchen), which raised some concerns from a hygiene standpoint. Apart from that, it's a lovely place where a mix of students and other patrons like to come

  • 4/5 Herman Van B. 7 months ago on Google
    Food is good. Pancakes and fruit are good. Maybe a tad expensive, but barely. Staff is very friendly. Biggest downside: it's always so loud in there. Just from everyone talking. Pity. If the place would be just a tad more spacious, it would get an even better score. So go for the food. If you want a cosy place to chat, this isn't quite that.

  • 5/5 Mario 4 years ago on Google
    I only tried their savory pancakes with egg, cheese, jalapeno and bacon; but they were amazing. A weird but awesome combination.

  • 5/5 Alex V. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very tasty for those who like an American pancake breakfast, with fresh fruit or whatever you want. The cappuccino was fine too and everything presented nicely too. (Original) Zeer lekker voor wie houdt van een americain pancake breakfast, met vers fruit of wat je maar wil. De cappuccino was ook prima en alles presenteerde ook mooi.

  • 5/5 Daan Van C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Delicious real American pancakes and bagels. Always generous portions! Brunch concept during the lockdown is definitely worth it. Staff is also very helpful and friendly. An absolute must in Leuven! (Original) Heerlijke echte American pancakes en bagels. Altijd royale porties! Brunch concept tijdens de lockdown is zeker de moeite. Personeel is daarnaast ook nog eens heel behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Een absolute aanrader in Leuven!

  • 5/5 Johan Y. 3 years ago on Google
    Very friendly service and delicious pancakes and bagels in a fun, vibey cafe setting. Highly recommend for a chill Sunday brunch!

  • 5/5 Vera M. 4 years ago on Google
    From sweet to savoury pancakes passing hot or cold beverages you'll be amazed. I had a sweet pancake and my date had a savoury one, we both loved it. The drinks were homemade and great, we had a chai latte and a cappuccino. The place is not that big, so be prepared to wait a few minutes, we didn't wait long, maybe 2/3 minutes and we haven't seen no one waiting much more than that, but just to let you know, it might happen. During spring/ summer they have some chairs and tables outside. Pro tip: make sure you're hungry, you'll be served a big big plate ;)

  • 5/5 borai b. 4 years ago on Google
    Perfect place to do breakfast or brunch! Best amercian-style pancakes I had here in Belgium. Definitely worth going there for the yummy food! Place was a little bit full when we were there, so a bit noisy due to the large group with kids. But that's just a momentary thing of course 😊. Good service too by way!

  • 4/5 Jasper V. 5 years ago on Google
    A great place for breakfast or brunch in Leuven! Pancakes are exactly what you want, with lots of toppings and a yum flavour. The coffee is also very nice. The place is also open on a Sunday, something rarely found in Leuven...

  • 5/5 Serena R. 3 years ago on Google
    I was into pancakes until I found this place. The savory/sweet pancakes are tasty, flavors well balanced and extra satisfying. Will be back for the sweet version!

  • 4/5 Chelsea S. 3 years ago on Google
    Open for take out. Acceptable flat white and bagel (not up to NY standards though).

  • 5/5 Kyle S. 3 years ago on Google
    We ordered from here several times. Great bagels and crepes. Amazing smoothies! for savory pancakes (bacon, eggs jalapeno one) heavily recommend if you never had a savory pancake before.

  • 1/5 malika M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The pancakes were good .. but very disappointed with the service especially at the cash desk where several people could not pay when we were a group of 7! It took one person to pay the full amount! By insisting they tell us that the system does not allow everyone to pay their share. I have never seen this in any restaurant! I especially think he didn’t want to bother .. I would not recommend this restaurant! (Original) Les pancakes était bonne .. mais très déçu du service notamment à la caisse où on pouvait pas payer à plusieurs alors qu’on était un groupe de 7 ! Il a fallu qu’une personne paye la totalité ! En insistant ils nous disent que le système ne permet pas de payer chacun sa part .. Je n’ai jamais vu ça dans aucun restaurant ! Je pense surtout qu’il voulait pas s embêter .. Je déconseille ce restaurant !
