    Banana crepe drizzled with three types of chocolate sauces. I recommend if you love sweet crepes   Banana Crepa Banana Crepa

    The cafe is small but super cute I had a banana crepe and a small latte and it was delicious. I hope they add more of a variety to their menu soon. They speak Spanish which is very helpful since my dad only speaks Spanish. Will definitely be back

    This is a beautiful, family owned - hidden gem, mom and pop café. Their coffee is to die for, and don't even get me started on the food. The crepes are deliciously made with love and you can tell that they really care about their craft. The bagels were the show stopper though, they were impressive, a little greasy but pack a HUGE bomb of flavor. I really enjoyed my first visit; it was fast, friendly and delicious. I really hope others give them a chance, because you can really tell they've worked hard to get to where they are and they are not taking shortcuts anywhere; absolutely delectable.

    Super cute restaurant. Feels very cozy. Got the chicken curry crepe and it was salty! If I wasn't…read morewith people, I might have complained but it was borderline fine. So...not sure the food is good. I just happen to think the attitude is a little worse. Came with a group and someone in our party ordered the French Onion Soup and then a Croque Monsieur. No one else in our group ordered a starter. What's weird is for some reason they decided to course the soup with everyone's mains. Normal restaurants, including like....your local suburban Chile's, know not to do that but this place thought that was normal. So already, my friend is a course behind everyone because they didn't serve his starter first. What's worse is when he finishes his soup...he doesn't get his main. We actually FINISH our mains and he still hasn't gotten his. He makes a comment VERY NICELY to our waitress like hey! Just wanted to check on my meal! She responds, "all our meals are timed perfectly." What!! My buddy goes, "Okay...I've just been waiting for 15/20 minutes so I think I'm ready for my sandwich." She responds, "okay....let me alert the kitchen." Wait? You didn't even tell them he needed his meal?? We wait another 15 minutes. We flag the waitress again and ask where his meal is and she responds "everything is made to order so the kitchen needs some time." Okay. This is a Croque Monsieur. Are you....rising bread right now? What is happening? So I get frustrated and jump into this and say, "Ya but we've been waiting over 30 minutes for his main. We've all finished so now you're asking my friend to eat alone." She responds, "everything is served hot so what is the problem??" !! I get annoyed because up until this moment, we've been pretty nice. But this waitress not acknowledging any issue or trying to make it better and talking back to us like this is weird. So I just say, "Bring a manager over." Well...it didn't matter. This lady learned her attitude from somewhere and it was probably from the manager. The manager immediately is on the offense like, "you ordered a soup and we wanted you to have the soup hot. And we want your next meal to be hot. We make everything fresh and we clean our dishes in between." The heck? All we want is for my friend to be able to eat his main. So I say, now rudely, "just bring the food. We have waited 30 minutes now. Everyone is done with their meal. If you haven't made it, cancel the order and we'll go somewhere else." She responds, "we usually serve the starter first. If you didn't like that, then don't order a starter." SERIOUSLY!? What is happening!? I think about telling her that USUALLY even if only 1 person has ordered a starter, that gets served first before EVERYONE gets their mains TOGETHER. Instead I say, "listen, cancel the order or give us the food but we aren't waiting any longer." And she goes, "we can't cancel it. The kitchen has been working on it." So I say "this better be home baked bread because they've been working on it for 45 minutes by now." IT STILL takes another 5 minutes to get this meal. It is cold. It is an average Croque Monsieur. And they probably all spit in it. At the very end, the waitress comes over and says, "I see what you mean and there were coursing issues but we take pride in our food and we weren't going to degrade that so we could serve you faster." This place literally lives up to a Parisian stereotype, I guess.

Everything from here is most impressive and YOU WILL RETURN! The owner and staff are very friendly and are very appreciative of your visit. Fantastic customer service and never, ever rushed. Quite busy, rightfully so, but the line moves right along quickly. I have purchased practically everything over the years for myself, my company and my church and have had nothing but incredible responses. There are many choices of the tastiest authentic breads, pastries, etc. plus there is that cozy place to enjoy a fabulous soup and authentic French sandwich plus perhaps dessert. This is a true gem in Old Town!! Great history online about the award-winning owner in France and the US, plus his years in the business and proven techniques with pictures. Such a truly interesting read! https://blog.matferbourgeat.com/en/2018/03/14/pierre-zimmermann-la-fournette-chicago-from-the-bas-rhin-to-the-americain-dream Enjoy!
