Pancakes were great. Very yummy but the atmosphere was spoilt by the damp and musky smell of a place that hadn't seen the light of day for god knows how long. I tried to enjoy my pancakes but the smell of spours and mould were to overwhelming. For people who have bad allergies and heyfever, Warning! your nose will run and eyes will itch. Someone should really open those curtains once in a while. The place has potential but, unfortunately, I won't be going back there again, I don't wanna risk my health.

I heard from my mates that Stokers has been sold to a new owner recently. Went there to dine yesterday and the taste of the pancakes weren't good at all. The sides of the pancakes were so burned that it tasted bitter. And also prices of the drinks went up too. Really disappointed by the experience.

One of the suburbs best kept secrets, divinely flavoured crepes in an atmosphere that seems unchanged since the seventies. Open till 2 am.

Some of the worst coffee in living memory and some very mediocre pancakes combine to make this a very disappointing experience. I think they tried to provide a nice ambience, but it somehow misses the mark and comes across very half-done. Given the lack of food quality, the price is unjustifiable. They do have some redeeming features though. There is plenty of off-street parking available and it is open until quite late considering its location.

It is a great place to go just for a coffee or some pancakes. The staff are friendly, and the coffee is hot and strong! There should be more parking though..

I highly doubt this place commercially advertises itself, for I've only heard of it via word-of-mouth on numerous occasions. Although the interior is quite dark, the cosy atmosphere makes this place a subtly romantic night out.

A great place to end the evening with some hot sweet or savoury pancakes. The antique kitchen layout presents a somewhat homely and nostalgic feeling. Don't know what to order? Start with the Fresh Strawberries Pancake. Sweet!!

Note - payment by cash only.

Enter to the sound of soft jazz beats and fresh, sizzling crepes; compliments of the open kitchen. Be seated by the upbeat staff. Choose from a smorgasboard of fruity, sweet or savory pancakes. Recommended from the drink menu is the pineapple crush and the long awaited cappucino.

Pancakes are served on piping hot plates.. can you handle the heat? Prices are reasonable. Far better. Perfect for late night munchies. Parking available, conveniently located by Darebin station! "Stokers. How Delish!"
