Nowhere Man

Nowhere Man
4.0 / 5 (4723 reviews)

Description

Step into Nowhere Man and let the city fall away — a playful, leather-sofa kind of hideout where pancakes are the headline and good coffee is the supporting act. Expect towering, pillowy stacks (vegan included) drenched in maple, indulgent cakes, creative sandwiches and milkshakes served in a space that feels like somebody’s stylish, well-read living room. A small sunny garden at the back is a perfect suntrap for slow mornings. With friendly, characterful staff, board games, and a relaxed soundtrack, Nowhere Man is a lovable spot for brunch, coffee dates, and anyone chasing the perfect pancake.

The blueberry vegan pancakes were out of this world and we couldn’t leave without trying the vegan banana-caramel shake the Chai-Apple, both sooo tasty. Absolutely worth the trip. Great vibes, great food, and they are dog friendly!

Very dog-friendly (he was gutted not to share our pancakes), staff are lovely and attentive. CBA bagel was *chef's kiss* and pancakes are huge but light, crisp and fluffy. Will be coming again!

We stopped by while we were visiting in Brighton and had a delicious breakfast. It’s a relaxed atmosphere and all the staff are very welcoming. You just order at the till and it didn’t take long at all for the food to come. They have a lot of vegan/vegetarian options and also are able to cater for any other allergies you may have. The food itself was perfect and hit the spot, would definitely recommend the pancakes.

Oh my god! Best pancakes I've ever had out-hands down. Service was super friendly and welcoming. The inside seating is so cute and they have outside benches that allow for smoking and is under cover. Vegan and VG options as well as gluten free! They are also dog friendly. Highly recommend.

Unusual cafe at the corner of the street with a bit of quirkiness and lots of charm. The All American pancakes was a huge serving and done well. One of the best pancakes I've ever had. Service was very welcoming, friendly and as when I was there while it was on the quiet side of the morning, service was quick.

More information

Many regulars come specifically for the vegan pancake stack — it’s become a local talking point for being as indulgent as the regular version — and the tiny back garden is prized as a rare suntrap with comfy leather chairs where people linger over coffee.
