The texture of the happiness pancake is as soft as a cloud, paired with fresh fruits or tiramisu flavor, it tastes exquisite. Moreover, the whipped cream is light and not greasy, leaving a lasting aftertaste.
The ambiance inside the store is elegant, the decor is of high quality, and it is located near tourist attractions, attracting many customers, but it feels slightly crowded due to the large number of people.
The service is basic and unremarkable, the ordering and delivery process is simple, but customers need to wait patiently.

Dickson's Fooday Mouthful Review #235 - Okinawa, Japan Edition
After finishing his trip in Chiang Mai, Thailand,
Dickson quickly arrived in Japan a week later 🤪🤪🤪
The first stop in Japan is Okinawa.
Upon arriving in Okinawa, besides eating rice balls,
you definitely want to visit the nearby famous tourist attractions to stroll around.
One of the famous spots here is Happy Pancakes.
There are so many people that you need to register in advance to be seated slowly.
During peak times, the wait can even exceed a few hours.
Fortunately, there are other shops and tourist spots nearby to wander around,
so you can register first and then come back later to check if it's your turn!
But when you think about it, it's just a pancake shop,
why would so many people be attracted?
Just how delicious is it? Let’s give it a try!

⭐️Food Section
On the day, my friends and I ordered two pancakes together.
👉 Tiramisu Pancake
This pancake flavor is one that I personally really enjoy,
because Dickson has always liked eating tiramisu 😂😂😂
They really captured the essence of tiramisu in the pancake.
However, the tiramisu here isn't too heavy on the alcohol,
leaning more towards the sweet dessert flavor,
so combined with the pancake, it really complements each other—sweet on sweet!
I would definitely recommend trying this flavor if you like tiramisu!
👉 Fruit Pancake
My friend was dead set on ordering the fruit pancake,
despite the rest of us saying that it wasn't necessary to eat fruit pancakes here,
he still stubbornly placed the order.
As expected, I can't say the pancake itself is bad,
it's just that when paired with fruit, it doesn't particularly stand out in any surprising way.
The pancake itself is quite good,
but it feels sort of like they are separate,
it's like eating fruit while having pancakes on the side...
Moreover, the fruit pancake is even more expensive than the tiramisu pancake?
In conclusion, the quality of pancakes here is undoubtedly good,
but my friends, you still need to choose your flavors wisely when you come here 😂😂
Then, if tourists from Taiwan come in,
we even secretly tell them not to order the fruit flavor 😂
Although the pancakes here indeed taste pretty good,
I still feel that waiting in such long lines is too exaggerated.
Because waiting so long creates expectations,
but it’s not delivering a wow factor that’s that exaggerated 🥹🥹🥹
⭐️Atmosphere Section
Mainly because this branch is located in a tourist area,
the overall decor and layout is actually quite stylish,
but since there are many customers in the store,
and most of them are tourists,
the dining experience quality slightly drops.
The space inside is also not too spacious,
so the dining experience is still affected.
⭐️Service Section
As I recall, there weren’t any special services in the shop,
just the basic ordering and serving.
⭐️Price Section
Compared to general dessert shops in Taiwan,
the prices here do feel a bit higher,
but we also have to consider that
the cost of living in Japan is generally higher than in Taiwan.
So I think this price can still be considered reasonable,
and since it is a tourist area,
it indeed feels a bit more justifiable 😂😂😂
⭐️Overall
I think this pancake shop certainly serves delicious pancakes,
but it’s not so astonishing that it’s a must-try.
And there are indeed other branches in different parts of Japan,
you don’t necessarily have to rush to eat here in Okinawa~~
In summary, this place mainly caters to tourists who want to eat and drink a bit,
but if you happen to be here,
just take a look at how many people are in line.
Filling in a name and reserving a spot seems fine,
after all, you can still wander around the area~
🤪 Dickson's Mouthful Zone 🤪
Bringing a girl to Okinawa for fun,
the first stop is this place,
the view is nice, and the sea is right beside!
The girl must really like sweets,
and this place is aptly called Happy Pancakes~~
Look at this,
bringing a girl right off the plane to such a delightful and elegant spot,
with great lighting and atmosphere~
Two people enjoying sweet pancakes,
looking at the strait outside Okinawa,
blue skies, white clouds, and beautiful seawater,
while tasting blissful pancakes.
Such a wonderful date process,
doesn’t it make your relationship even better?
😍😍😍😍
🤪 Dickson's Mouthful Zone, see you next time 🤪
For this super popular happy waffle, you must book a table online first, otherwise you will have to wait for a long time on site. There are three pieces of soufflé per serving. For the sweeter one, we chose the limited-time peach flavor! There is a lot of peach pulp, the soufflé tastes very tender, and the peach jam is great! And their whipped cream is very light and not greasy. The salty soufflé is different. It feels like wheat is added to give it a better texture. We chose the mushroom omelet, but the sweet one is still more delicious~
Woohoo, super delicious!
I'm a waffle lover, that's right.
But I usually can't finish a whole portion
Because normal waffles are made with solid batter
It’s easy to eat and you’ll feel full at once
The waffles of Happy Waffles are a bit like soufflés
It's very thick and super soft in the middle.
like clouds
So you can eat a whole portion by yourself without feeling too burdened!
This time I ordered fresh fruit waffles and tiramisu waffles!
They are all super delicious!
If you don’t like the whole thing too sweet, you can order fresh fruit muffins! Because it is so refreshing when paired with sour fruits!
The fruits this time are strawberries, apples, kiwis, pineapples, grapefruits, bananas, lots of them!
Then he will add a dollop of whipped cream, which is super delicious!
It’s not too sweet and very delicious⋯⋯⋯You can also add more!
Tiramisu waffles will come with a dollop of ice cream and coffee sauce
The bittersweet ones also have a unique flavor! !
He can have waffles + drinks
You can also order drinks a la carte
Low consumption is one item per person (not limited to drinks or meals)
In addition, in addition to sweet waffles, they also have salty waffles.
Just like brunch with some ingredients!
It is recommended to book online first.
But they have to book 14 days in advance and they all sell out instantly.
The first afternoon I went there was so crowded that I couldn’t even get in line. It took about 2 hours to wait.
I went as soon as the doors opened the next morning, but I was a little late.
So I wasn’t ranked in the first round. I was probably ranked in the second round.
Let’s have a coffee and take some photos nearby and we’ll be there!
It took about 40 minutes to wait. It was okay ~ I didn’t feel bad waiting for too long after eating the waffles!
It is recommended that everyone arrive before 11 a.m.! It’s also great for breakfast!
