Sylvan Beach Pancake House

About

The big pillars out front are the giveaway at Sylvan Beach Pancake House, a historic building that has been part of the Sylvan Beach landscape for more than 100 years. It started out as the village’s post office and general store and is now a center point of the beach.

Lynn Rizzo Cifonelli and Dan Cifonelli bought the building and the business in 2016 and renovated it, giving the eatery a new old look while keeping its old-world charm. A fresh menu followed. Their motto is simple: good people, good food and good times.
