Love having breakfast here everytime we visit Cape May. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to be seated but it's worth the waiting. I love the pecan pancakes (gluten free menu). Always fresh and delicious. Also the veggie omelet.

This location is very busy and bustling during the summer, even during the week. Great hot pancakes served quickly. Free parking lot for pancake eaters. This location did not offer the shaved home fries ( what we call hashbrowns) Similar menu to the other locations, but not identical.

This restaurant has some booths with a view of the ocean. There are so many choices on the menu, so come hungry! I had the seasonal pumpkin pancakes which were amazing. The staff were friendly and overall the service was great.

I went to NJ last month and wanted to try famous pancakes from Uncle Bill. We ordered lots of thing there; Cape may plate w/ pork chop, egg omelet w/ toasts, eggs benedict and chocolate chip pancakes. They were so good!!! And the servers were very nice and welcoming us.

I have been coming here for years. Since 2004. The food is always good. It is a simple and comfortable place to eat your meal. Plus next to the beach. The staff is always welcoming. Portions are just right. The reason for the 4 stars is that this time everything was great until, I paid my check. Lady didn't even ask how everything was? I was trying to say to her how" I love this place. I always come here". No reaction. Just a smirk. I realize everyone has issues. Not judging that, but you represent the restaurant. Show you care. Be more personable. Be more Kind! Smile! This is only time, I experienced this. Kindness Matters. I will still eat here. Just being honest. Everyone has an off day.

If you’re in Cape May, you absolutely must check out this place. The pancakes are better elsewhere, but this is an iconic spot in the cape may and a must-visit once in visiting CM. Enjoy!

This is a great place to go during the week as you can avoid the crowds. Located across the street from the Atlantic Ocean in downtown Cape May, it provides a quiet place for a great breakfast or lunch. The food and service are impeccable, and if you're looking for outstanding service, ask for Candi.

I had such a great experience at Uncle Bill’s Pancake House in Cape May. The location is perfect — just steps away from the beach, with a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that makes it a great spot to enjoy breakfast or brunch. The restaurant is spacious with plenty of seating, and parking is convenient, which makes the visit even easier. For food, I ordered the Cape May Plate, Eggs Benedict, Chocolate Chip Pancakes, along with sides of smoked bacon, smoked ham, and avocado. Everything was delicious! The pancakes were fluffy and full of flavor, the eggs were cooked perfectly, and the sides were fresh and tasty. You can really tell they use quality ingredients and put care into every dish. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole meal even more enjoyable. Service was quick, and everyone was welcoming with a smile, which added to the positive experience. Overall, Uncle Bill’s Pancake House is definitely worth visiting if you’re in Cape May. Great food, great atmosphere, and a great location near the ocean — I’ll definitely be coming back again!
