Crepe Cafe

This place is now closed! Trekked over here by foot in the rain only to be disappointed.

This small nook of a café produced decent crepes. I must give them that; however, the real problem lays within their foundation. Mama always told me its all about having good foundation! Their servers did not speak English and I believe we are in the US. I asked for a plate and they handed me tin foil and said no plates. Does tin foil qualify as a plate– I think not! My hands would not hold up the tin foil to eat my Crêpe as the crêpe was too heavy. In addition they seem to be barbaric and don’t know what utensils are– I was
Forced to channel by ancient roots and behave like a cave man. I did not appreciate being so uncouth. Please someone teach this crêpe place how to perform like civilized beings and get them a plate!!!

The crepes are terrible! They’re thicker than pancakes. Someone needs to get schooled in the French way of making a crêpe. Also, I don’t know how you can make Nutella taste poorly, but they managed to do so. I threw away 90% of my dinner.
However, I can vouch for the (strawberry) bubble tea and (strawberry) smoothie. Everything I wanted! It is nice to know that there is a bubble tea place nearby.

Menu might have more than is actually there but it’s so extensive chances are you’ll quickly find a replacement. I am drinking rose hot chocolate and its the most delicious thing I’ve had in a while. I don’t even care that its hot out.

Boba review only.
Ordered their regular sized boba milk tea, and it did not disappoint. Thank you Crêpe Café for satisfying my month-​long craving for some good bubble tea. I would come again.

Awful. Paid 5.50 for a regular sized bubble with red beans. Tea is overly sweet, like some premixed powder. First they forget the red beans. When they do give it to me it is rancid. Avoid this place

Their smoothies are 25% fruit and 75% ice. Smoothie was sooooo watered down. Don’t come here for smoothie. Not worth it. To top it off they didn’t even blend it thoroughly. Had chunks of ice in my mouth to chew.

Seriously the worst crêpe ever. It’s like eating paper. Bubble tea is also bad, tastes artificial, and the bubbles are hard.

I love this place I’ve been coming since it opened. The staff is soooo friendly and they always remember my drinks! It’s nuts. The tapioca bubbles are smaller than other places, but the options are better and their smoothie options delicious as well. I’ve never had the crepes so I’m not certain how they rate there, but I love this joint. Keep up the great work!

They need to rename this joint. It’s not a crêpe café, it’s an anything-you-freakin’-want café. Bubble tea, hot chocolate, smoothies, … and many of the savory crepes more closely resemble sandwiches.
And a nail salon in the back? LOL.
I got a Hershey banana crêpe, which I expected to have a melted Hershey bar in it. No dice; it was just syrup. (Probably my fault for assuming.) But the bubble tea was fantastic and their cups are simply the cutest. Little bears and confetti and t’ings.
I’m just glad I finally ventured in here. Now I know there’s a more unique option in this area.

Their sweet crepes are better than their savory crepes. The chicken is bland. Their dark chocolate crêpe is very good. They aren’t very loud when they call out orders, but their staff is nice. They only take cash.

Bonus there is a nail salon in the back.
This place was a little weird. I’ve never been to a crêpe place that was all run by asian people.
They make bubble tea and smoothies too. It seems like this is like this place is a mish mash that doesn’t really specialize in anything.
We tried the plain crêpe with butter and sugar and a chocolate crêpe with strawberries. Crepes were ok, but nothing spectacular. The batter seemed too doughy and bland. Me, my sis and her bf were the only customers there and it took them a long time to make the food. I’m not sure why the service was slow.
Probably wouldn’t try this place again with so many other food options in the area.

Disappointing. Basic crêpe with lemon and sugar. Can’t decide if it was just undercooked or if the batter is no good.

After a long time lack of bubble tea on the west side, I was so excited to see that crêpe café popped up a block away from my apartment. It’s a cute small place with a nail salon in the back??? Maybe they own both. Anyway I got the green jasmine bubble milk tea. The jasmine flavor was so floral, fresh and sophisticated. I really enjoyed it. However, the boba were definitely too hard for my liking. They could have used some more cooking. They definitely give you a good amount of them though, which is always a plus (especially when they’re cooked right. I haven’t tried the crepes but they smelled amazing as they were cooking.

Their bubble tea didn’t blow me away, and the tapioca pearls are smaller than I’ve typically seen. Too many bubbles left after I drank my tea, and I could suck them up with my straw without any beverage help :(How depressing. Small bubble tea was just under $ 5, which sounds about right.
But it wasn’t bad, and if I’m craving bubble tea in that area, I’m sure I will be back.

Take me back to Paris, France at this awakening hour for sweet savory Crepes.
One fresh strawberry/​blueberry jam Crêpe at $ 7.95 was okay as it does not contain any blueberries… MEH! Staff are not fully fluent in the English language as they are operated by Taiwanese and Mandarin speakers, but they are well capable of producing crepes. For $ 7.95 I can attain one sandwich and a bag of chips at a deli as one measly crêpe was not fulfilling for a steadfast hunger pangs. All in all, it was extremely messy despite of the many napkins distributed as I had it to go where the strawberry sauce was dripping all over. Bubble Tea and smoothies are also on the menu at this crêpe café which neither are a good marriage combination: French Crepes + Taiwanese Bubble Tea + smoothies? This equation does not signify any authentic French cuisine as it does not keep with the integrity of the overall culture. How about French pastries? It does not exist here.
Excessively overpriced for Meh quality. Seating is limited.

My best friend and I would come here all the time last summer. It is small but real nice. The employees are really respectful and attentive. Though they do not fully understand English, they do understand how to make your order to perfection! Crepes, Bubble Teas and Smoothes. All Delicious!

I was craving crepes, so I headed over to Crêpe Café for lunch.
Verdict: my crêpe was NOT good. I asked for a chicken, mozzarella and mushroom crêpe and was charged an extra dollar (I don’t see why, considering there are two other meat options for a dollar less than what I was charged). I shrugged it off and was even more annoyed when my crêpe was rubbery and inedible. The texture was not okay at all. I checked inside the crêpe and saw that the chicken was dry/​old. The mushrooms and mozzarella were fine, but there was no flavor to the crêpe at all. I also ordered bubble tea, which was the only saving grace of my meal.
It was $ 16+ for one crêpe and a jumbo bubble tea. Undoubtedly the worse meal I’ve had in awhile.

Earl Grey boba. It sounds like a great idea but honestly it’s not all that. The Earl Grey flavor isn’t very strong. I haven’t tried their regular milk tea flavor but if you have a chance to find this sweet café in Bryant park, order a crêpe and a boba to wash it down.
Tip: get the large drink, it’s the most bang for your buck. It runs about $ 6. For an extra dollar you get 3 cups of milky goodness versus a measly 2.
**Huggy write-​a-​thon review**

I walked by Crêpe Café and something caught my eye. The words «Earl Grey».
–We ordered a large (24oz) warm Earl Grey bubble milk tea for $ 6 (A regular 16oz is $ 5). Slightly expensive for bubble tea and overall it was okay. The flavor had a mild Earl Grey flavor with more sweet milk tea.
–One upside is that they know how to cook their tapioca pearls. They are soft and easy to chew.
