la crêperie — Restaurant in Paris

A delightful spot for a quick meal or a sweet treat! My friend and I visited La Crêperie on our last day in Paris, and I deeply regret not coming to this cute little cafe earlier in our trip! The crêpes were absolutely delicious, the coffee was fantastic, and the service was outstanding.

The staff was super friendly! They gave us a warm welcome and kindly walked us through their menu. They offered to speak in either French or English, so it's a great spot for locals and tourists alike. My friend and I wanted to practice our French a bit more, so we decided to stick with the French. I really appreciated that our server didn't drastically slow down her speaking or otherwise condescend to us, so it was a great way to get some more realistic French speaking / listening practice.

After we ordered at the front counter, we made our way to one of the three tables on their cute little patio. The street was quaint and cozy, so it was a nice, quiet place to enjoy our coffee and crêpes. The food came out super quickly and was outstanding. The crêpe was paper-thin and super soft and tender. I loved the slight crispiness around the edges, and the slightly sweet flavor made it the perfect blank canvas for all the other toppings. The fruit was super fresh, and you can't go wrong with any of the other sweet mix-ins. My friend got the banana and caramel -- a tried and true combination -- and I got the chestnut cream and strawberries. The chestnut cream was rich and nutty, but also quite airy, as though it had been whipped, which helped prevent this treat from feeling too heavy. The sweet, nutty cream went fantastically with the fresh, tangy strawberries and soft crêpe. Truly can't recommend this...

The owner/women working there was just so rude and awful, it was beyond anything I have ever experienced anywhere in the world. I understand tourists would be annoying (and we gave her an annoying blank stare when she spoke to us as we walked in) but literally yelling at people is totally unacceptable. Roll your eyes, maybe? Yelling, no. She was so patronising that she even told us at the end that we had to pay in euros, because apparently not speaking fluent French means you're so mentally impaired that you don't know the currency of the country! Her forthright personality might be charming to some but the experience here was so AWFUL it kind of sullied my experience in Paris generally (even though other people were friendlier than this). I'm annoyed we didn't just walk out but we were just so shell shocked and wanted to avoid further confrontation. On the plus side, the coffee...

Went there with my wife and 3 kids(7, 13, 15 yo), all kids eating crepes for the first time. We started with ordering 3 crepes. The kids loved them so much we ended up ordering almost 6-8 crepes total. When we walked at 4:30 pm she kindly let us know closing is at 5:00 pm. But that did not prevent her from giving us great service and she just kept making crepe after crepe for us as we were ordering them 3 then 2 more then 2 more. She kept making them with a smile. The coffee was great too! We finally left around 5:45 pm, after thoroughly enjoying ourselves. I we ever go back to Paris, this is a place I will definitely go back to. I don't usually write a lot of reviews, but this place deserved it. We do not speak french and still had great service and...
