We went on a Saturday afternoon and there was a queue of at least 20 people in front of us. It was probably one of the most prominent Crepes shops given that it is conveniently located on the approximately 100 m away from the main entrance of the street. Despite the queue we managed to place our orders in 10 minutes. They're on there was another queue for collection of our purchase.. and despite the many orders, we got our crepes within 5 minutes.

They had two registers (one is cash only) that moved people through very quickly, so there were no more than 4 people in line at any one time. From the time you place your order, the food also came extremely fast--within 2 minutes. It might have been nice to provide napkins, although it may have been at the register, and I just didn't notice it. Just remember to not walk while eating the food, so finding a spot can be difficult as it is so very crowded there on a...
