Where Are the Best Pancakes in St. Charles County?

The St. Charles County Patch sites introduce a new column centered around food, local restaurants and you. You can vote on your favorite place for pancakes by commenting below.

Welcome to "Chowdown Showdown"—a column aimed at finding the best foodie finds in St. Charles County.

The weekly "Chowdown Showdown," which starts now, is meant to be a way for readers to pick and vote on their favorite places to get certain entrees in St. Charles County. Each week, we will ask you to tell us your favorite place to get a cup of coffee or a burger or breakfast. 

Before thoughts turn to turkeys, mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie, we want to talk breakfast. For our inaugaral column we want to know: Where is the best place in St. Charles County to get pancakes?

You can let us know your favorite spot by commenting below. You will be able to submit your vote through 5 p.m. Tuesday. 

From there, we will take the top three finalists and post them in an article first thing Wednesday morning. Then it will be time to vote again—this time for the "Chowdown Showdown" champion.

Voting will continue through 5 p.m. Thursday, and we will announce the winner first thing Friday morning. 

If you are really pulling for a certain restaurant, share this column on Facebook and Twitter and ask your followers to vote. 

This column is all about hearing from you!

So, without further ado, lets get the voting started. Patch readers, tell us by commenting below, where is the BEST place to get pancakes in St. Charles County?

My favorite is CrackerBarrel in St. Charles. With the cherry or blueberry topping and whipped cream they are delicious.

Mmmmmm.......Pumpkin pancakes at IHOP in Wentzville. They were the first to have them and they are fantastic:)

First Watch pecan pancake (singular) the size of a hub cap is the one to get if you're going to splurge.

Dear Karla. I'm so sorry for your family's loss. I know when we went through something similar withRead More our cat, who had been with my wife for 19 years, it was like we'd been hit by a truck. I didn't expect to be affected as much as I was. Sorry this isn't a doggie memory...we're cat people, but the feeling is the same.

Thanks, Kurt - I really appreciate your post. Thankfully, I still have 3 cats and another dog atRead More home to help ease the pain. I agree with what what you said about being hit by a truck. I, too, didn't expect to be affected as much as I was - especially since I knew she was "elderly" for a dog. :)
