Good crepes

by mario rucci at Citysearch

Went here after my wife had a craving for crepes. I'm not a huge crepe fan, but these were pretty good. We'll probably go back at some point.

Worst dining experience of my life!

by bestfoodinseattle at Citysearch

I came to the Crape Cafe with my husband and two kids ages 4 and 6. After we got seated and ordered we waited for an hour for our food to arrive. I noticed that the two tables seated after us got served first. When I questioned the waitress about this she rolled her eyes and in an annoyed tone explained that they only had two crepe makers so the smaller party had to be served first and the order of seating did not matter. By the time our food arrived my kids were miserable and hungry and so was I. The food was definitely not worth all the wait and the service was very poor. Never coming back again.

Okay food , way overpriced, tiny portions

by IndianFoodLover75 at Citysearch

We ordered a French onion soup a westchester crepe and a caramelized banana crepe.

The soup was okay - nothing great. It came in an 8 ounce cup and was priced at $7.

The savory crepe had a few slices of tomato, a little caramelized onion some spinach leaves and a few slices of avocado. We were sharing the crepe and when it was first served, I thought the chef had split into two and the waitress would get the other half for my wife. Next came an empty plate. It was the full crepe and the size was no bigger than a 5 inch by 5 inch sandwich. This crepe was $15. The taste was decent.

The desert crepe was a disaster. The cream cheese filling was overpowering and the crepe was not fully cooked. The caramelized bananas were pretty good. At the end of the disaster we were still hungry and forked out $40 for the night.

We then ended up getting a $6 foot-long at subway after this experience.

French Flair and Hospitality

by theyogababy , Citysearch Contributor at Citysearch

I love eating here on a sunny morning with a friend, grabbing a table outside and people watching. The servers still pay attention to outdoor tables, but you get respite and a chance to chat the day away!

I really enjoyed the fruit crepe of the day last time, it had strawberries, blueberries, and banana in it, creme fraiche too. Yummmy. We had a veggie crepe too which was so friggin delicious I probably drooled. It was Alcena's Crepe: 2 eggs, sautèed spinach, mushrooms, caramelized onion and garlic in a warm crepe. Drool. Just thinking about it makes me hungry.

So, you can get coupons for this place through the Entertainment Book, Groupon or Living Social Deals at times, and sometimes other places. The servers are sweet and can make your stuff to order if you have special needs/likes. Check it out! You'll be happy you did (according to me).

  • Pros: Stuffed, huge crepes, nice servers, frequent coupons!
  • Cons: The crepes can be too filling, beverages are quite pricey

Yummy crepes

by lauragateau at Citysearch

The caramelized banana crepe is divine, and much more substantial than the dinner crepe I ordered. The ambiance is charming, like a cozy cafe in Paris, and it's a nice spot for a glass of wine and a light meal. The food was very good but, unfortunately, the happy hour food specials weren't really a great deal and the final bill was a little too high to make it a place I would go back to often.

  • Pros: The crepes are delicious
  • Cons: Happy hour portions are tiny, prices are a little high
