Enjoyed the place the minute I walked in with my family. Morning sun pouring through the big windows, white walls with classic French photos dotting the space, and a mix of French jazz and trad Parisian classics playing. We were greeted warmly by Neil, the owner, and we ordered quickly (as you must do sometimes when you have kids) and sat down. Medium and dark roast coffee for my wife and I, apple juice for the boys. Only 2-3 other patrons there for our duration, so 9:30 am on a Thursday worked well for us. Food didn't take long at all, actually watched them make the crepes from our seats, the boys really dug it.
Crepes were served to us by Neil when they were ready (I assume when they're busy it's more pick-up counter when ready, so it was a nice helpful touch) the boys had the fruit salsa crepe (apple/strawb/peach/grape/pear butter/warm spices) and the chocolate covered berry crepe (dark chocolate sauce with strawberry coulis). Angeline had the Bon Matin crepe (bacon/egg/sharp cheddar/roasted garlic aioli) and I had the mushroom melt (sautéed mushrooms/Brie/roasted garlic aioli). Ange and I tried a few bites of each and agreed they were all delicious, the mushroom melt being our favourite (the rich earthiness with the medium roast was crazy good.) Total before tip was under 40$, and we were all full and happy. Highly recommend! As newcomers to Dartmouth, it was a real treat to find, we'll definitely be back.
Hands down one of my favourite places to eat at in good ol' downtown Dartmouth. Excellent tableside manner, smooth jams, cafe-style seating, wonderful local ingredients, affordable pricing. Crepes are wonderfully delicious; I haven't tried them all but I've had enough of them to say that it's a great selection! A belly full of 5 stars, guys, you're just the best! Cheers! ^_^
As with every visit... the staff are amazing, love the smells coming off the freshly made crepes as you wait... and whether eat in or take away... mouth watering.. my fav .. the mushroom melt but hoping the candy cane is back for the holidays..:) hint hint
