They come in many different flavors, such as blueberry, apple, chocolate chip, and the list goes on. Pancakes are often served with syrup and butter. In Scandinavia, they may be served with sugar, jam, or 'brown cheese'.
Ireland. Stores even sell lemon juice things on Shrove Tuesday. But we make them, not the store bought thick ones, they are really nice with lemon and sugar. Lemon juice not an actual lemon wedge though.
You put room temp butter on them and it melts. It's like toast. And it's normal to eat pancakes with butter and syrup. I personally just use syrup because I can't really taste the butter if I put it on. However, I feel butter on waffles adds a lot of flavor. You have been educated.

Hah. Thank you very much. In our country, waffles are made of potato. It always confused me in American TV when people put syrup on waffles because I thought they were a savory thing, but actually I have tried the sweet version of the waffle in Ireland and they are awesome. So now I am educated on the two most important foods in the world.

I would have thought the waffles in Ireland would have been made of potatoes.
I don't eat Pancakes very often (more of a waffle guy really, unless we are talking about New York Cheesecake pancakes) but when I do eat pancakes they are with butter and syrup.
However, I will say that there is much more syrup than there is butter. Like 90/10
As Americans, we like to pimp out our pancakes occasionally... sometimes with chocolate chips and whipped cream.
Also this.
this but deep fat fried and set on fire
Other than the chocolate chips (and being typical nasty frozen food) eating that is no different than eating a pancake with a link of sausage.
Actually, it's probably deep fried and whatnot to get the pancake on there. Then it's just a breakfast corn dog, which is bad, but not horrible. I have eaten "breakfast bowl" things before that had like over a thousand milligrams of sodium and 70% of your daily fat.
I pretty much just eat pancakes when I'm at a hotel, but I put honey on them. It's the best choice, in my opinion. Then again, I don't fit any of the criteria you put in the title. Try honey on pancakes sometime, you'll like it. ;)
Cultural differences, I guess? I only ever eat pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, with lemon and sugar. Having them for breakfast and with bacon (which is best served in a sandwich whilst hungover) is crazy talk to me.
Normally, I eat my pancakes with syrup only. occasionally, a restaurant will put butter on the pancakes, but I prefer it without butter.
However, I do normally put sausage on my pancakes. And I've been known to put bacon into them. In college, I even got a waffle house to make me some bacon pancakes.
No we don't have Ihop. Unlike the US the UK is not a country full of fast food outlets although it does look interesting maybe I could franchise to the UK. Also pancakes are meant to be eaten with Jam, preferably Strawberry with your afternoon tea. Saying that yesterdays pancakes fried in the morning with butter and bacon are just scrummy. Dam... I'm hungry now.
I'm not sure how I the IHOP actually is. I live in arguably the most American of all non-American cities (Toronto), and I haven't yet encountered an IHOP.
Keep in mind that even in America pancakes can differ significantly. Johnnycakes, flapjacks, griddlecakes, hotcakes and pancakes can all be very different.
