This is a little cafe located on 41st Avenue, near Dunbar. As the name suggests, they have a large menu of crepes, although they do also serve various sandwiches, drinks and pastries. You order at the front counter, and the staff will bring the food to you once it's ready. I had their Chicken, Red Onion, Tomato, Swiss Cheese Crepe and Mango Smoothie. The food wasn't the greatest, but decent and the prices are fair. Not a bad place to stop by for a quick bite.
Chicken, Red Onion, Tomato, Swiss Cheese Crepe ($8.99):
3.5/5
I wasn't a big fan of the crepe itself; I found it a little tough actually. I did enjoy the filling however. The chicken was tender and flavourful, with a nice bit of heat. There was also a good amount of cheese inside.
Mango Smoothie ($4.99):
3/5
The smoothie definitely had a very great flavour of mango, and was fragrant and sweet. Unfortunately, I just found it to be too icy. It tasted more like a slushie without any creaminess (I don't know if they added any milk or other dairy products). It was also not well blended: there were a few large chunks of ice in the smoothie. They do also have shakes, which are priced for a $1 more; I don't know if those are better.

This restaurant used to locate in downtown and when I tasted the crepes in downtown, the crepes were delicious and quite extraordinary. With the new location, i went there twice and they menu had changed since the move and crepes do not taste the same. The crepes are ok but definitely not same taste as when they were in downtown. The price is bit pricy and the crepes are decent but nothing great. Also tried their cappuccino and it was ok but not great
We love this little piece of France in Vancouver. The service is prompt and friendly in a polite French sort of way, although the Monsieur who makes the crepes also has a great sense of humour. The crepes are absolutely delicious.
Wonderful cafe. This is a delicious cafe and I would recommend it to anyone. The goods are freshly baked and it is a quiet oasis off the main street. The croissants are particularly yummy.
It is also a great place to practise speaking French! I recently brought a French class that I teach here to order their food and practise speaking. It was a wonderful experience and the students loved their food and visit.
Delicious. I have been here numerous times, and have always had an amazing experience.
The owners are wonderful people, and are so friendly and helpful. Their accents, along with the French music playing and the smell of fresh baking, truly makes one feel as if they are in Paris.
They make the most incredible pastries, (I particularly enjoy the pain au chocolate), and the coffee is also excellent.
However, the crepes are the main reason my girlfriend and I come here time after time. From sweet to savoury, I have never been disappointed with any of the options. A personal favorite is the simple but delicious lemon and sugar. For savoury, I usually go for the #7, which has sautéed mushrooms, spinach, tomato and feta.
And to top all this off, the pricing is very reasonable, with each crepe ranging from $6-9.
I highly recommend you check this place out.
Good, but. Because they make the crepes right at the counter, and the place is cozy but not well ventilated, you come out of the shop smelling like every crepe they made that day. Good food and coffee and free wifi. Decor could really use an update to keep it fresh.
A little piece of Paris in Dunbar. A much-needed coffee and crepe place (as the name implies) in the Dunbar/Southlands area.
Sure, there's Faubourg a few blocks east in Kerrisdale for French pastries, and there's a Bean Around the World just around the corner on Dunbar but this place has cozy ambience, delicious coffee, gracious owners, and authentic Parisian crepes and pastries.
Most, if not all, of their crepes are made with buckwheat flour - savoury crepes will cost roughly the price of a sandwich but are very filling.
Couches are very comfortable - makes you want to curl up in front of the fireplace (there is one!) with a good book.
There are also backgammon and chess boards available.
All in all, a cozy coffee place to spend a rainy afternoon in Dunbar.
My latte was PERFECT and my crepes were outstanding. Highly recommend this place. Oh, great music as well. Really cool place.
Amazing Food, Amazing Service. I love this place. The staff are incredibly gracious and the food is divine. A real winner.
Natural, wholesome ingredients. The crepes were good, very natural, healthy, and fresh ingredients. I like eating something that tastes "real," if that makes sense. Quick, and friendly owners. I had a buckwheat crepe with sauteed mushrooms, spinach, tomato, and feta. Very filling! My daughter had a sweet crepe with apple sauce and cinnamon, it wasn't very sweet - which I liked! The crepe was so soft as well.
We have visited for coffee many times over the past several months and have enjoyed warm hospitality and excellent brew. This time we ordered a breakfast crepe and their house specialty cafe au lait. The organic buckwheat crepe enhanced the well-proportioned filling of mozzarella, spinach and eggs. The cafe au lait had a nice balance of sweetness from the milk and bitterness from the espresso. Looks like others have discovered this wonderful cafe; it was packed on a wet Friday mid-morning.
THE BEST CAFE CREEPE EVER. THANK YOU CREEPE THOMAS FOR ALL YOU MAKE VANCOUVER HAPPY
