The Pancake Parlour is an Australian family-owned pancake restaurant chain, serving sweet and savoury pancakes and crepes with locations in Victoria and the ACT.

The first Pancake Parlour restaurant opened in Gilbert Place, Adelaide on 15 May 1965 as "The Pancake Kitchen" and is still is in operation today as "The Original Pancake Kitchen". The first restaurant was established by Roger Meadmore and Allen and Helen Trachsel. The Trachsels moved to Melbourne opening "The Pancake Parlour" in Market Lane in 1969, whilst Meadmore moved to Sydney and on 17 August 1975 opened "Pancakes on the Rocks". In 1985 the company expanded opening a store in Canberra. There are eleven Melbourne restaurants, with the Doncaster, Highpoint and Malvern East restaurants open 24 hours a day.
