IT really Depends what you mean by "Unhealthy". They Both will have roughly the same Calories for the diameter.
But the Crepe will have some more protein and fat then a pancake.

So the Crepe Could be considered a bit healthier then a pancake.

Truthfully....I wouldnt really consider Either to be "Unhealthy" Especially if the pancakes are Whole wheat pancakes.

well...i can see where u would think of it like that...however..when i looked crepes up..it showed it had ALOT of fat and calories...campared wiht pancakes which had alot less....
What do u think?

Everyone's definition of both varies. You could have a small pancake or a huge crepe, you could load up pancakes with butter and syrup and crepes with fresh cream and fruit..it all really depends. Have what you feel like having because really in the end it does not matter. If youre going to 'splurge' once, why eat something you don't even want to really have, jsut because it's healthier? Everything and anythign in moderation is absolutely fine.
