This lively spot right on the corner of Broadway and Santa Monica’s Third Street Promenade is a favorite among kids, European tourists and beachy locals who are devoted to the ginormous menu of sweet and savory crepes--48 in print, but you can custom make your own too. Black pleather booths and banquettes line a burgundy-washed room hung with colorful vintage French posters. Watch the crepes being made in the front window--it’s a fun show--and choose savory combos like Swiss and mushroom, spinach and feta, ham or smoked beef.

AWFUL EXPERIENCE ! Place is EVIL !
by travel77
Our chicken sandwich (chicken paninni) arrived without chicken in it. When confronted, the waitress started convincing us that it is a shredded chicken and it can not be seen ...what ????... she ended up sending it back to the kitchen... in 15-20 minutes we just asked for a check intending to leave the place. Manager showed up with an attitude and made a big deal that he's giving us biggest favor not charging us for the sandwich that we never ate. Charged us for french fries order that was sent back to the kitchen and never eaten. Manager didn't handle situation well, didn't care for customer, showed attitude. NEVER AGAIN CAFE CREPE !!!!!!!!
- Pros: location
- Cons: ill service, mediocre food, immature manager, dumb waitress

Great crepes, great location, cheap alcohol and cool atmosphere
by soperduper
I found this place recently and I have become adicted to their apple-pecan salad and nutella and strawberry crepe. Service is friendly and the food gets to you fast. I coul not believe their prices on beer, $3.00 for a pint and pitchers for under $10.00 on the Promenade! Insane! My family and I come here now once a week before a movie. I read the bad reviews and I can not beleive the bad experiences people had here ;well to each its own. If things change I will post it
- Pros: great food, good value, great location, friendly service
- Cons: Parking around the promenade can get tricky
