French Creperie — Restaurant in Kathmandu Metropolitan City

Ok I’m a big fan of the French Creperie in Pokhara and had never been to the one here in Kathmandu so it was definitely worth a look. On appearance it is nothing like the one in Pokhara but hey there’s always room for change right. The menu was very similar so let’s go. I already knew what l wanted so l didn’t waste anytime in ordering. 1 big glass of their house made kombucha and we were on our way. The kombucha was great and helped get the stomach ready for the crepe to come. One thing in the meantime which l couldn’t help noticing was the mosquitoes. Because of the stones and moisture on the ground it seems to attract them. The appearance of the restaurant isn’t the greatest and could use a revamp to bring it back up to scratch.

Plenty of gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options. Crepes are made with buckwheat. The menu offers sweet and savory crapes, as well as other perennial faves like burgers, fries, etc. The facilities are basic, more like a garden cafe, but the service is excellent.

Important!!!!: Do NOT follow Google Map instructions - they are incorrect. You will be instructed to turn into an alleyway that no longer exists. Instead, go to the intersection of Thabani Rd and Thamel Marg and good fourth on Thanel Marg for about 300 ft. As you walk, look for a green sign (I attached a picture). The place is inside an alley that curves to the left. Follow the green signs. When you see hotel New Era, you are there - it’s across the street from the hotel. Alternatively, you can use Apple Maps if you have access; their instructions are correct...
