This place is so super cute and INSANELY busy. You will most likely wait in line to order and then need to go shopping and return for your crepe- our crepes took about 45 minutes to make.
You may not get a place to sit, as the cafe is quite small inside, and during the colder months, everyone crowds inside while they wait for their highly anticipated delicious morsels.
I got a savory cheese crepe and it was TO DIE FOR. My boyfriend got a sweet peanut butter crepe. There are TONS of options for fillings from fruits and nut butters to cheeses and meats.
The decor is very cute and old world-ish, and set up to feel like you’re dining outside in Paris (even though it’s definitely inside and slightly dark 😂🤣).
I was very surprised at how full I was from eating my crepe, and we had plans to eat at the Bavarian Inn later- a thing I would not recommend doing after eating a crepe- so make sure you have plenty of time between meals as this is more of a meal and less of a snack. Also, these are served immediately off the griddle(?- I think that’s what it’s called) so they are SUPER hot, which, in the colder months is great if you’re going outside, but otherwise, I’d recommend taking it out of the paper sheath and unfolding it to allow it to cool. Don’t burn your mouth on the deliciousness!! 🥵
No complaints!

I’ve never really had a crepe. This was all new to me. My wife on the other hand has had something similar 10 hours south of Frankenmuth in Carbondale Illinois. When I think of crepes I think of a sweet breakfast option. I didn’t know savory crepes were a thing. Please excuse my ignorance. I was a bit befuddled at the options until my wife chose a savory crepe. That made my decision easier. This was something to tide us over until dinner. My wife had the Mediterranean and I went with the ham and cheese. I tried my wife’s crepe and it was delicious! The decor was wonderful and the staff were great.

I was in MI for 3 days and ate here TWICE! I got the banana Nutella crepe both times and my husband got the bananas foster crepe and both were delicious! And the staff is amazing!

I've been here ten other times, but my husband hadn't eaten here yet. We each ordered a savory crepe for dinner, and for dessert, we each ordered a sweet dessert crepe. They were alright. I don't recommend the Reuben Crepe, and I was so looking forward to it ☹️, so I hate to even say anything - but my thinly-sliced 2 pieces of corned beef must have been MICROWAVED LITERALLY TO DEATH because it was literally BOILING HOT and all wavy and curled up; it was almost hard as a rock. I could not even eat the crepe because the meat was so hard and hot.... but I wanted to taste the swiss cheese and the thousand island dressing, so I decided to remove the overly-cooked meat from it. It wasn't a Reuben without any tender, succulent corned beef, but the cheesy crepe was okay. On a positive note, the Strawberry Cheesecake sweet crepe tasted delicious. To the staff: please please look at your cooking process of the corned beef - I would honestly LOVE to give you folks another chance to make me an AMAZING Reuben Crepe! ♥️krissy

Cute little place in the river shops in Frankenmuth. The food was good, but the place is small and gets packed with people and when they get really busy, you could wait upwards of 45 minutes for your food.
