We decided to stop in IA City on a road trip, and it was a unique and pleasurable experience. We ordered three savory and one sweet crepe. The fromage (cheese) one was rather bland, but my picky toddler wouldn't eat it anyway. The restaurant was crowded, but luckily we beat the rush! All in all, it was a good meal,... More

My friend and I got a savory and a sweet crepe and shared. Both were delicious, but my favorite was the savory. The lemon ginger tea was good also. Will return to try the other offerings. This is a small place and we went shortly after opening. By the time we were finished at noon, there were people waiting to... More

I have the blind date with my boyfriend in this Cafe and now we have already got married. We love the food and we go the Cafe every week, at least once. This is our favorite restaurant. Excellent food. We like to chat with the chef and waiter. They are couple as well. Try this. You won't be disappointed.

Well, I my daughter and my wife loved their crepes. We tried three savory ones and a sweet one. We were... More

Decided to get off the highway and try something different. We're glad we did! This is a small storefront restaurant with about 8 tables. You can see the chef prepare the crepes, and they are fabulous. We had several different ones, Frontage Fantasy (cheese), Le Cochon (ham ,egg, swiss), and Lyon (spinach, cheddar, bacon). We also had a S'mores crepe,... More

I loved the tartness of the lemon/blueberry crepe, it was just the right amount of sweet and sour...but there were probably only 8 blueberries in it. I just told myself that I enjoyed a delightful lemon crepe with a blueberry garnish. I would love to go back and try another dessert crepe... The location is great and they seem to... More

I've eaten their twice when traveling to Iowa City. Great crepes, had it been there when I lived in Iowa City, I would have been down there all the time. The people working there are very nice and did a lovely job making the crepe look like a butterfly, my six-year-old daughter adored it. The only downside is how small... More
