Crepes & Waffles Centro Comercial Arkadia — Restaurant in Medellín

We had lunch for four. Crepes & Waffles is one of the oldest and most delicious food franchises in Medellín. It offers a great variety of courses: breakfast, brunch, soups, salads, lunch, dinner, desserts, coffee and kids' menu.

I politely asked if we could be seated elsewhere to have a drink while waiting for our table, but this was refused. I was told we would have to stand outside and would not be allowed to move to the balcony once a table became available.

This felt like poor customer service, especially considering that most restaurants offer guests the option to wait at the bar or another seating area. The lack of attention to such basic hospitality details left a disappointing impression.

In the end, we chose to dine at a nearby restaurant that offered the same view—but with much...

Came here on a busy Sunday night and took a while to get our order through. I thought this place was just a dessert place but they have an extensive menu. Lots of savory and sweet crepes for your offering and I choose the Mexican Rosarito crepes and my partner chose camarones crepes. Her had great flavor while mine was under flavored. I generally prefer crispy crepe but our were drenched in sauce making the crepe soggy. Every time I’ve passed a Crepes and waffles they are always busy and I can understand why, it’s like the Cheesecake...
