This place definitely belongs on the list of must-try desserts in Okinawa!
If you visit Umikaji Terrace on Senaga Island, be sure to plan a stop at this incredibly popular pancake shop. I recommend making an online reservation first. Otherwise, between waiting in line and having the pancakes made to order, you'll be waiting quite a while.
Each order of pancakes is freshly made and takes about 20 minutes. They're made with fresh eggs, Hokkaido fresh cream, and New Zealand manuka honey. They're slightly crisp on the outside and incredibly fluffy inside, and every bite makes the wait feel worthwhile!
Besides the classic pancakes, there are also fruit, whipped cream, and seasonal flavors. Every option looks so tempting. You can enjoy the pancakes with an unbeatable ocean view and watch planes take off and land up close. The whole place is filled with a vacation atmosphere.
After eating here, I really had only one thought: super delicious! If you come to Okinawa, I highly recommend adding this place to your itinerary. Enjoying beautiful scenery with delicious food is definitely one of the most relaxing moments of the trip.

Part of a nationwide chain originating from Awaji Island, A Happy Pancake is a beloved café known for its fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth pancakes. The Okinawa location sits within Umikaji Terrace, a resort-style commercial complex on Senaga Island, conveniently close to Naha Airport. Here, visitors can enjoy both carefully crafted pancakes and breathtaking ocean views.
Each pancake is made with fresh eggs, Hokkaido milk butter, and premium New Zealand Manuka honey, taking 20 minutes to bake to perfection. The result is an unparalleled light and fluffy texture. The menu features a variety of options, including the signature "Angel Pancake" served with whipped butter, as well as fruit-topped and seasonal special editions.
The terrace seating offers panoramic views of the Okinawan sea, creating a stunning resort-like atmosphere. Guests can also watch planes take off and land at Naha Airport right before their eyes. With around 50 seats (including both terrace and indoor seating), be prepared for possible wait times due to the café’s popularity and the time required to bake each pancake to perfection.
