"Manager dressed in company colours, burgundy and a bowtie. It was fitting since its a French inspired scene and felt in place. Server took my order but the manager did all the work.
Later he explained he instructed his server to focus on other tables and that she isn't ignoring me or neglecting me. I was impressed and tipped knowing food was fast and service was ideal"
This location has been here so many years, and I believe this location opens the earliest then others.
It was Christmas day. My girlfriend and I wanted to walk our husky and grab street food, before handing out presents to the homeless.
I was always a big fan if sweet crepes growing up. But it wasn't until 3 years ago, at the German Christmas festival here in Vancouver, I've experienced savoury crepes with my girlfriend. My whole perception changed. I now also love savoury crepes.
This team on Christmas day was hard working. The person who was making our crepe made a mistake. We didn't get cooked spinach in it so that person added raw spinach. It was Christmas day, it wasn't a big deal. We were just grateful we had the day off honestly. I was waiting outside with my husky and finally my girlfriend came out with the biggest grin on her face.
The savoury crepe is delicious. I would come back again to try other savoury crepes.
Yes. We,re Eating Again.

For all the years that I have been hanging around Vancouver this is the first time I have been to Cafe Crepe. We decided on crepes because my Filipina partner had never had them before! Well, let's fix that! Arriving on Christmas eve at about 10:30 am, there was a bit of a lineup. This was a time when being a two some was an advantage as we were invited in immediately to sit at one of several booths for two. Coffee arrived quickly thank goodness. It was good coffee but I would not come just for that. My partner had the French Toast Crepe which was sweet and tasty with eggs, cinnamon sugar and maple syrup. I went savory and had the Crepe Francaise. They actually had me at "duck confit". The dish came with a little scoop of caramelized onions and a duck 'drumstick' as a sort of garnish. Both were delicious but were barely warm which detracted from the experience a bit. The crepe itself stuffed with confit and cheese was tasty. A little pricey at $16.95 for what you get. Service was efficient and gracious especially considering that the place was jumping. Comfortable booths, the decor evokes Paris (I guess) with posters and tiles and red walls with black accents. Not bad if you are a breakfast person or looking for a sweet snack.
Classic Vancouver street food! Can’t walk one block without running into a cafe crepe. Love how quick and easy it is to eat! Love the classic Nutella, strawberry, banana!
So good I love the Nutella with banana on it!!!It was very filling and delicious I hope I can go back to cafe crepe again and again.It is not the best that I have been to but it is very very good
Exactly what you would expect. A variety of savory and sweet crepes. I have to admit the crepe itself is a bit plain, with the filling providing flavor. I was disappointed in that aspect. The west coast crepe was a great mix of salmon amd vegetables. The banana strawberry crepe was sweet and the fruit perfectly ripe. Service at this location was very attentive, adding to the experience.
Cafe crepe offers exactly what the name would suggest, a variety of luscious crepes that can satisfy either that salty craving, or a persistent sweet tooth. Always a great option to either order on the sidewalk and walk around, or sit down for a bit of a coffee break.
Great for a quick and easy bite on the run. Good range of sweet and savoury. Try the west coast smoked salmon crepe for something a little different.
Good spot for breakfast on the go. Order s crepe on the sidewalk and a couple of minutes later you will have a nice hot breakfast in your hand
This place was so good we went back the very next day!! Probably the best breakfast I've ever had - the strawberry crepe with a side of bacon. Perfection!!
I have received excellent service at all locations, especially when The servers were willing to accommodate my changes to dishes heh. The sweet crepes are always delicious, but its hard to mess up chocolate and nutella. The savoury crepes deserve applause though! Ham & Cheese crepe is my go-to for a light meal. Perfectly chewy but crispy on the outside. Their fries are also extra crispy and good.
Sad to see so many Bad reviews!. My experiences at this location of cafe crepe have been entirely awesome. I agree that it is a dark atmosphere, if you are sad and need a cheery experience then this place is not for you. It is for the true vancouverite who can bask in the rainy gloom and find other things to lift the spirit like good friends and cheap breakfast! They are not always on it with the coffee refills but don't be shy! They aren't purposely trying to deprive you.. This is a hella busy place. Simply wave someone down and ask for the refills that they are more than happy to dish out. The manager here is awesome! He cares. 100%. If you're looking for a decent inexpensive breakfast and would rather go to a local place than to Denny's, go here!
Finally the crepe tastes real!!! I visited there a couple times... this time the crepe was finally made with full of flavor! usually it wasn't served at a right temperature or the crepe was not made freshly???
or maybe I was just so in love with this combination: dark chocolate, caramel with hazelnut.
always love the Polar Bear drink on side :p
Fun Bite, Not Cheap. Okay, maybe for Vancouver this would be considered a cheap meal, but for the rest of the world, it isn't. Crepes range in price and can easily get into the $7-$9 dollar range. That aside, there are tons of options from simple, delightful crepes, to "Fancy" crepes with brie and jams. You really have to test and try them out. They even have breakfast crepes they fill with eggs and bacon. Okay, so they take what a classic crepe is and stretch it a bit. No biggie.
What makes this location special on Robson, is that you can order to go and eat your juicy crepe as you walk around the lackluster shops. It is a real neat vibe the little restaurant gives off as they also have a bar and interior seating. The place is often quite busy, so plan ahead. Service is usually quite friendly.
I would recommend simpler crepes, but let your tastebuds try some fun stuff out too. This place isn't cheap, as three crepes can get you into the $20 range. Bon Appétit.
Pretty good for the price. Came here one morning during the week and seriously, for $6, it was a pretty decent breakfast! I have absolutely no complaints. Service was good as well. If you're looking for a gourmet breakfast though, this isn't the place.
Great crepes, friendly service. Delicious crepes...absolutely excellent and friendly staff!
The cafe crepe omelette was to die for! After eating at several other breakfast places and having $50-$60 tabs, this place was a delight! $27 for the mist delectable omelette you could ask for.
Crepes..... Well having crepes period is new for me. There are a lot of interesting choices, I go for the strawberry stuffed crepe with some ice cream on the side. It was good! It would appear they have some decent drink prices as well but strangely I didn't feel like a beer with my strawberry stuffed crepe :)
Great service (for me anyway). Lovely male servers at this place. Great Italian coffee, very good. Their fries aren't that great, but their burgers are pretty good. Crepes are all good.
Nice place to relax and have some cheap pitchers of Granville Island beer. Oh, and their bathrooms are alright, usually clean.
Very customizable crepe menu with good service. The cappuccinos aren't great.
Visiting from out of town and had an amazing breakfast here yesterday do we came back again today for another amazing breakfast. Food and service top notch!
Mmmm. Banana and dark chocolate!
Great!. I love Cafe Crepe and this is one of my favorite locations.
Friendly and Quick Service. I was here on weekend and was surprised to find that there was a lot more on the menu than crepes. My friend and I both had the Eggs Bennedict. They were delicious. Our server was very efficient and funny and the best part of the experience was the bil. I could not believe how inexpensive it was... We will be back.
Great. This is great when you're in a hurry and just want to grab something quick and yummy on the way. There are many choices of crepes and the ones that i've ordered didn't fail to impress me. It's quite good and i would recommend to all the crepe-lovers out there
So satisfying. My first crepe years ago, and the standard by which all others are judged. Wonderful. I like a basic egg, cheese and black pepper.
I recommend walking up to the window, rather than agonizing with the slow service (and cramped quarters) inside.
It was heavenly. The bill produced a bit of sticker shock but the food was excellent. Great to try once but the value isn't there to make it a regular stop. When relatives come to town I will take them. I guess that is the point, it is a sweet indulgence. If it were cheap the entire greater Vancouver area would be diabetic.
Love nutella? .....the love Cafe Crepe.. When I was little my mom would lovingly spoon extra nutella for me on my morning toast or add a quick spoonful to my milk. Recently I became pregnant and found that I was craving nutella! Hmmm...what to do I started thinking-until one of my friends mentioned how she had just had the most exquisite nutella and strawberry crepe at Cafe Crepe on granville. It just so happens that I live fairly close by and was able to convince my adoring husband to walk the dog-and grab me a nutella, banana,strawberry, coconut crepe...after all I am the one carrying the baby:) Craving fulfilled!
Yummy Crepes, Inside Service Slooooooooow. We've enjoyed crepes at Cafe Crepe twice now and each time we ate inside. First, the bad: never, NEVER go inside if you want quick service. This morning, we were at our table for just over an hour before our breakfast was served. This seems to be the norm so if you're in a hurry (or have anywhere to go for the next two hours) make sure to order from the front window.
Now for the good: the crepes are wonderful, light and fluffy with delicious fillings! We've opted for savory crepes both times but the sweet crepes look like they'd be perfect for dessert one evening. There are so many choices, I think I'd be in crepe nirvana if I could try samples of all of them.
Don't miss Cafe Crepe when you're strolling on Robson!
Great breakfast combo! For $4 you get a crepe and any size coffee. I got to choose from a limited crepe menu, nothing fancy. I went with Cinnamon-Sugar crepe. It tasted delightful, just like eating a cinnamon bun , but in a crêpe form. They were able to make it pretty quickly too. Before I had finished adding cream to my coffee, my crepe was ready. The Coffee The coffee? Hmm, is there such thing as sommelier for coffee? If so, well, I’m not it. I can’t really tell the difference in quality between a $1/cup coffee and a $4/cup coffee. To me, it was good enough. There were four sizes of coffee to choose from: Small, Regular, Medium, and Large. I went with Medium. Should have gone for Large. The Service Now, whenever I read restaurant reviews nowadays, people seem to complain so much about service, and not even mentioning the food. I think those people have thought that they came to a palace instead of a restaurant. Here’s my experience. I was offered the menu the moment I s
Me and my friend was having late night cravings for dessert before heading home. We decided to eat sweet crepe. Luckily the place was not that busy. The server was very friendly and funny. Service was very quick and good. The place was dark and has a retro vibe. They also offer savory crepes, wines and other beverages. Located at Robson Street. Dark Chocolate, Caramel, Coconut Sweet Crepe I am a fan of chocolate mix with caramel. They just taste so good. The crepe was oozing with dark chocolate with shredded coconuts on the inside. The drizzle caramel on top made it more yummier. Sweetness was just right and the aroma of the shredded coconut smells good. The crepe was perfectly cooked. Nutella, Fresh Strawberry My friend ordered this one because she loves Nutella. She let me try it and it was good but nothings special. Maybe because I am used to eating Nutella. A perfect balance flavor between Nutella and Strawberries. Posted on May 27 / 3 notes / # cafe crepe # chocolate # nutella #
I find that they serve reliable food and that the service is quick. Good when you’re on the way to the airport. Today, I had the West Coast Eggs Benedict, made with smoked salmon. It tasted pretty good, although the benny was warm in the middle and the outside, room temperature. It’s definitely a serviceable breakfast, for a city that doesn’t seem to have much open early on the weekends.
My favorites include the jambon, fromage and mushrooms; chicken and mayo; dark chocolate and strawberries and the plain Nutella crepes.
i have been to all locations of cafe crepe but i usually dine at the one located at robson street as the service is much better and the chances of getting seats are way higher.
A popular franchise found downtown and in other parts of Vancouver, Café Crepe is a bit of an oddity.
They have a couple of locations in the center of downtown. I love their sweet crepes and always order the nutella banana crepe
Great service. Really tasty crepes, taste the same every time- delicious. Lots of variety as well. They have more than just crepes too, such as breakfast. The location is ideal on Robson. It’s convenient and good for people watching.
We found this place whilst walking around looking for our breakfast. Very happy that we did.
Great table service and even better tasting breakfast.
The sideorder of hash-brown was a little too salty for my taste though.
But overall we had a great time here.
This is our go-to place when we want to sit back, relax and grab a quick bite after a day of shopping at Robson St. Crepes range from the savoury to sweet and are priced accordingly. Service is quick and staff is friendly.
Amazing food and nice atmosphere! The milkshakes there are delicious and the breakfast we had w as s great! The wait time seemed a little long, but it was well worth it for the food we got.
Great service, fast interaction. Not a very appealing atmosphere. Dark like a dungeon. But the breakfast was very good and delicious. Prices were reasonable. Liked the cappuccino which was done slightly differently. Fast service.
Staffs are friendly. locals and travellers both love Cafe Crepe! Their signiture savory can be a nice meal. I recommend BC something with smoked salmon. Every menu with strawberry is just so delicious. For to-go snack, why dont u try fresh strawberry+dark chocolate topping? Inside is a little bit narrow, but if you are the person who loves cozy & not disturbing place? Corner sweet seat is for you.
