Crepe Escape — Restaurant in Ontario

My daughter and I visited The Crepe Escape last weekend. It is a small place with limited seating, too bad they didn't settle on a larger place, they were turning people away at one point.

First to the crepes. They were delicious. My daughter had "The Classic" with nutella and strawberries (she asked for no banana). Delicious. I had "The Française" with chicken and a lovely cream sauce. It was wonderful as well. As good as any crepe I have had in Paris. Savory crepes are usually served with a buckwheat crepe, not a sweet, but it was still delicious.

My only negative part about our experience is with the person behind the cash. When we sat down to wait for our crepes (you order and pay at the counter and then they bring them to you), there were only two tables available. One was in a corner with two sides against a wall, with only one chair, clearly set for only one person. The other was a table for four. We sat at the table for four. The person from the cash came over after a few minutes and in a loud accusing voice said, "We CAN'T have only two people at a table for four when we are THIS busy! You will have to move to another table." I told her that we had looked at the table for one but it only had one chair. She said, "well take one from this table!"

I didn't mind moving. They were getting a crowd in and we totally understood. But the WAY she told us. How about, in a low quiet voice, "I'm sorry, but we are really busy, would you mind moving to this other table? Here, let me get an extra chair for you."

A few minutes later a couple sat down at the table for four. I waited for "Miss Sunshine" to come and tell them to move, but she didn't. Not even when a family with two kids came in and were told they would have to wait 40 min. for a table. They asked if they could sit at the counter by the window (only two chairs) and were told "sure". So they squeezed in there. Not sure why the couple wasn't told to move to the two person counter so the family could sit at the table.

So bottom line, LOVED the crepes, HATED the attitude of the counter person. Totally affected our enjoyment of the meal which was worth five stars, not the three I ended up giving. Hope the...

My sister and I ventured in for breakfast this morning (Wednesday July 16 2025). We were there shortly after opening, so had the place to ourselves.

The staff were lovely! So friendly and welcoming!

We tried the Country Breakfast, she with maple syrup and myself with the $1 extra creamy dijon (absolutely worth it imo!).

This breakfast was the most delicious thing I've ever had the pleasure of shoveling into my face. Not ONE bite of it was disappointing.

The eggs were fluffy and flavorful; accented by the perfect amount of cheese and home fries to add to the meal without being the focus. The sausages were juicy and the crepe... my goodness the crepe!

Coffee was fresh; and self serve!, which I appreciated. There was no risk of having too much or too little of anything because the fixings were there for me to add to my liking.

If this isn't already on your list of places to eat in The County, you need to do yourself a favour and add it...

Crepe escape has awesome products...don't get me wrong. Up to today I've recommended them dozens of times. Unfortunately they have recently made a business decision to cease offering Gluten AND Dairy free options, which means my family can no longer go to Crepe Escape as several people in our family are sensitive to BOTH and not just EITHER.

Up to a few weeks ago we loved going to Crepe Escape, and we did so several times a month. However, we were told today they no longer offer an option for people with BOTH allergies, only EITHER. I wish Crepe Escape all the best as I love to promote local businesses but until my entire family can eat there then none of us will eat there, nor will I continue to recommend you. I recognize we make up a tiny portion of your business but please reconsider this...
