The Skinny Pancake opened at 454 Mountain Road in Stowe on July 15, the 10th location for the crêperie that started as a food cart on Burlington’s Church Street in 2003.

Like its sister restaurants in Burlington, Montpelier and Quechee, the Stowe Skinny Pancake offers outdoor dining and takeout. It’s housed in the former McCarthy’s Restaurant, which closed last fall after 45 years in business; general manager Brittany Kistner is the former kitchen manager at McCarthy’s.

On July 22, the Skinny Pancake reopened one of its three sites at Burlington International Airport, according to marketing and brand director Michael Cyr. The post-security Skinny Pancake has tables for dining and drinks, but no bar seating, he said. The other two airport locations remain closed, as do the local chain’s three seasonal businesses.

Earlier this summer, the Skinny Pancake in Hanover, N.H., closed permanently, according to Cyr.
