Overpriced tourist trap with improper Food Safety practices.
After 2 months in St Barts I decided to go kill a craving for a French crêpe and a fresh pressed juice which would've been better/cheaper/healthier made at home. Crêpe was okay, and "value for money" considering it's SBH :)
Having said that, I'd caution customers to refrain from ordering juice products because either the fruits or the pressing machine are not washed properly, or maybe they didn't have treated ice and ice cubes were made from tap water... Whatever the reason, not worth visiting this place unless you want to spend your holiday with a terrible aftermath of food poisoning.
P.S. If you speak French, they won't prompt the POS machine to include a tip % when you pay... If you want to experience quality cuisine in SBH as a tourist, please look for...
Read moreUnreasonably overpriced. Menu does not state clearly what items are. For example pizza does not say on the menu anywhere that it is NOT a pizza base, but a crepe. Really horrible, extremely soggy, salty, oily mess. A few dabs of pesto, and a out six to seven tablespoons of the oil from the top of a pesto jar poured on. Just a few bits of topping on the centre and loads of plain crepe. The actual crepe served normally would of been fine, but as a pizza base. No way. Tried only a teaspoon, and the excessive oil and salt made me gag. Waitress said all food sold there is based on crepes? I passed by earlier and saw people eating burgers and fries. It looked like burger bread. Perhaps they had folded the crepe into quarters. But I swear I saw bread. But the waitress said everything is crepe. That's all the stuff they do?...
Read moreLe Crêperie in Gustavia is a true gem. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome with warm, attentive service that was both friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is relaxed and charming, with a perfect mix of casual island vibe and cozy French café feel.
The food was excellent—fresh ingredients, perfectly prepared, and generously portioned. The crêpes (both savory and sweet) were outstanding, and the rest of the menu delivered just as well. Even better, the prices were very reasonable by St. Barts standards, making it a fantastic value.
It’s the kind of place you’ll want to return to more than once during your trip. Highly recommended for breakfast, lunch, or a laid-back dinner. A standout spot...
