    A hidden gem that I'm glad I stumbled upon. After eating a lot of delicious grilled food at Grill City and wandering over to all the bakeries in the shopping center, I was about to settle on some fine pastries with ube, but decided to check out the last dessert place I Yelped. I almost didn't find it as it was hidden on the side of the shopping center without the most obvious sign. Fortunately, our group didn't let the plain sign deceive us as the inside of this restaurant is actually quite colorful and nicely decorated! Given the reasonable prices, we also figured we could get a small dessert and avoid the food / sugar coma later. We were also lucky that we were wrong in this regard as well! The iced latte here is quite good, better than the Starbucks I had the day before and well balanced in terms of creaminess and strength (without being too bitter). This satisfied my coffee craving pretty well. The family banana split on the other hand... is something I'm still dreaming about days later. Given the extremely reasonable price, it was a huge surprise when it was served in a giant bowl with 5 very generous scoops of ice cream (all different flavors), with two oreos, 6 pocky sticks, and bananas all around the side and bottom! Fortunately, this wasn't just a work of art -- the dish is as delicious as it looks. Now that I've had an opportunity to check out pictures from other Yelpers, it's quite exciting to see that every dessert they make is a work of art and very generously sized. I can't wait to come back and slowly try everything on their menu :) Overall, super delicious mix between art and flavor with incredibly good prices. I would make a special trip to enjoy the desserts here, even from the suburbs!

    Walked into a small crepe bar, the decor is very juvenile with rainbows, balloons and childish decor. The crepes were delish, tender and plenty of fresh fruit.

    We stopped in here for crepes on our way to another event, and weren't sure how much time to allow, but as it ended up it was perfect. Parking was easy in the adjacent lot, and service was quick and friendly. We were greeted extremely by the woman at the counter. She was warm and welcoming, and seemed genuinely glad we'd found them when I told her it was our first time there. We chatted about how they'd opened not too long before the pandemic, and I could tell just from this short exchange that she valued her customers. I ordered the Turkey crepe, which also had ham, bacon, and cheese. It was nicely full of all of these ingredients, and the cucumber and cherry tomato garnishes were a nice addition to the side of red pepper paste. My husband had the breakfast crepe, minus cheese, and said his was also very good. My smoothie was delicious, and came garnished with a large strawberry and a paper umbrella -- fun! My husband had one of the teas, which came piping hot, so he saved most of it to drink later after it had cooled off We'll definitely be back, and I can't wait to try a sweet crepe the next time!

    We came here for brunch on Fourth of July weekend and had a great experience! I ordered the strawberry banana crepe with euro cream and my husband ordered the queen berry crepe also with euro creme. The euro cream is like a mixed vanilla and chocolate cream, very tasty! Service was great, the employees here were all super friendly. Can't wait to come back!

    I stopped in for the first time today with a friend before walking to labagh around the corner, the gentleman behind the counter was welcoming and other patrons seemed very friendly. We got one savory, the house style crepe and one sweet crepe, the banana and strawberry with nutella. my goodness, they were amazing and well prepared, it did take a bit of time so i would build in leisure time and it is absolutely worth it! im looking forward to enjoying the cute small cafe and food again soon :))

    So cute!

    Hidden gem! So glad we tried this place out. Generous portions and the food was all delish and fresh. I had an iced caramel macchiato and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't too sweet, tasted like a real macchiato, not fake stuff! The sweet and savory dishes were approved by young and old. The owner was also super friendly and explained everything to us so patiently as it was our first time here. Will definitely be back.

    Stopped in the other day after grocery shopping with my mom. I was hoping for a juice or something without caffeine. They mostly have coffee but in their refrigerator they have an assortment of different canned and bottled beverages. I ended up buying a carbonated IZZE. I wish I was hungry enough for a crepe because they looked delicious. No indoor seating right now but there is a patio. The staff was nice and there was hand sanitizer inside for customers.

    Very small place. The crepes were delicious, but a little pricey. The atmosphere doesn't match the food quality and price. It isn't dirty, but doesn't feel clean. Hard to explain that, but you'll understand if you visit. The crepes are worth trying. I ordered the queen berry, and it was delicious. Fruit was fresh and crepe was done properly.

    Hello my Foodzies, we tried a new place, Crepe house cafe at 5033 n Elston Ave. in Chicago. It's a small order and eat place with what could be a kids art studio, plastic tables and chairs. The menu is hung from the ceiling with many options all the crepes are hand made per order. The menu was both sweet and savory and included different coffees, teas and shakes options. The owner was very nice, our order taker was friendly and knowledgeable. Glenda had the ground beef crepe, the meat wasn't seasoned very well, the crepe was light and fluffy. I elected to go with the breakfast crepe, it was stuffed with turkey, bacon, mushrooms, 3 cheeses, tomato and 2 eggs. It was filling but also under seasoned. The saving grace was the eggplant and cucumber sauce. That mixed with the crepe tasted awesome. I give this restaurant 3 stars, try it yourself and let me know what you think. Ciao Ciao for now.

    Crepes anyone? As you know I have a weakness for crepes and this place did not disappoint. The crepes were perfectly moist and gorgeous. The menu is inventive see Pic. Had the kit kat. It was too sweet for me but that doesn't take away from the quality and the presentation. I decided to try this place because of Zee and Nash. They run the place and were very warm and welcoming.

    This place honestly never disappoints. It's my go-to crepe place in Chicago and has a great menu including sweet and savoury crepes, waffles, ice cream and hot/cold coffee and drinks. Great seating options as well indoor and outdoor. Love their Nutella alternative as well -- Euro Cream. It's very creamy and leaves a nice texture in your mouth. Can't wait to go back!

    Yummy!! This place is perfect for take out crepes on these chilly mornings. I took my kids to try something new. It was a hit! We tried three kinds and loved every bite. The owner is as sweet as her creations and her dedication shows in the shop. This is a don't miss stop!

They have a great variety for everyone and even have a selection of fresh pastries and cakes. I go here often and the baristas are always so kind.

The bakery offers large cakes - and yet they will.not customize in any way, not with any kind of birthday message, or anything to recognize a special occasion. We went to pick up the cake, the young kids working there didn't even seat the cake well in the box - didn't close the box properly, and when we got home, the cake had shifted so that it had rubber against the side of the box. The chocolate cake layers themselves in the Ferrero cake were excellent - a slightly denser texture with some chew, but not overly so, and nice and moist. The hazelnut cream was ok. Overall it was hard to taste that this was a Ferrero cake, although I could see a few crushed up pieces of the Ferrero chocolate inside. But the white frosting was awful - tasted something between flowers and soap. I do not enjoy a soapy cake. In terms of the cafe itself , it's an industrial space that put minimal effort into feeling like a modern/minimalist cafe. Not somewhere I see myself enjoying a latte in. I don't see myself returning any time soon.

    stopped in (finally) to pick up a few treats to entertain guests coming for coffee. Great…read moreassortment to choose from.. difficult even, but we were able to fill a box to everyone's enjoyment. I really liked the assortment of cakes, pies, cookies and more available and will certainly be back again.. and again. A suggestion: While I was intrigued by the sandwich board I had no way to know what the sandwich would look like. Bread? pandora? Ciabatta? 6", 8", 10", 12"... or bread loaf slices? So my suggestion is they get some photos taken or make a few sandwiches wrapped and ready to grab n go. Make one of each and see what sells. I'd use sandwiches as a way to bring in customers who will then purchase a pastry or cookie.. or come back when they need something sweet. sorry, no photos... pastries were gone too fast and they were delicious.

I had delicious coffee, pastry, and gelato. I received good, friendly service. I had a cream and fruits filled croissant, coffee, and a cup of gelato with coconut and pistachio flavors. They were all delicious and pretty good. The gentleman who served me gave me a generous portion of their homemade gelato which was creamy and flavorful. I enjoyed my experience here. I liked the variety of pastries and other sweet treats this fime establishment had to offer. I definitely recommend checking them out.
