I ordered the blackened chicken sandwich and a bowl of creamy spinach soup and garlic bread. It never made it to the table only bcuz while waiting I noticed several unexpected things happening, where do I start? Ok I'll begin in the cooking area only because I had a clear view to see everything happening in the 2x4 cooking area with 3 accompany cooks whom appear to be horsing around. I ignored and continued to wait while waiting I asked for ranch dressing it was brought to my table what look like dirty cow milk. No way I'd touch any part of it to my still waiting on my sandwich to looking at the dirty grill with black square made home potatoes that look gross. The 4 waitress started off at being polite turned bad only because I didn't want the ranch. Still waiting and annoyed with the dirty this and dirty that I decided to cancel my order, what I go do that for, they didn't like that at all and told me I needed to wait for manager approval for a refund. I had my 96 year old lady who also agreed that this place was not a place she'd ever seen such rudeness and unwelcoming business. And you know looking at the food on other customers plates didn't fit to any liking. Dirty water glasses and poor customer service at front counter. I didn't say I won't go to another crevice I just won't go back to North Berkeley crepevine!!! read more

Ambiance: beautiful little outdoor seating amongst giant ferns, immediate seating. Overall great service! Food: Insane portions for the price. One serving can last you at least 2 meals. One of the best deals you'll find in Berkeley while still tasting amazing. I especially liked the Florentine -- it was the perfect mix of savory and mushroom umami. Would definitely come back. read more

I've probably walked past this long established restaurant more times than I can count during my many year visits to, from, and within the Gourmet Ghetto. Aside from maybe 1 or 2 stops at the nearby Saul's, I've never been in the area where breakfast was on the radar. At the same time, there's been a multitude of stops at Cheese Board, where corn cherry scones have always been a culinary focus of mine. This time around, Gayle and I were staying at the Hotel Shattuck as part of a Berkeley Rep Theater weekend. It was great to see live theater again, while wearing masks and distancing ourselves at reduced Roda capacity was but a small price to pay. The Hotel Shattuck offers non-complimentary breakfast options, which we almost went for. However, we also wanted a good walk first, so off we headed up Shattuck Avenue. And the first place that caught our eye was Crepevine, and without a line that soon grew after we had sat down and ordered. Every egg dish here seems to have 3, which Gayle had in her omelet and mine in a more traditional eggs, and sausage (chicken apple) combination. Along with the potatoes, our choice of toasted bread, and coffee, it was a fine and filling meal. Both counter and table delivery service was friendly and attentive, even though mask communication (in general) can often be a challenge. It was also fun to see what other folks ordered for future reference. We left happy and full. And after a stop at the Cheese Board (scones to take home), we it was a comforting experience to explore Berkeley and UCB some more and walk off a really delicious breakfast. read more

Great brunch spot with solid food, prices, and ambiance. I've come here a few times over the past few years, and they're always a little busy (takes about 10-15 minutes in line). I recently got the Siena crepe, which was a little sweet overall but well complemented by the strawberries. These are probably some of my favorite crepes in Berkeley. Would recommend for a fun breakfast with a few friends! read more

Standard brunch spot on a sunny corner. It was a nice day out so we opted for outdoor seating. I came on a Monday and I guess it was trash day so the dumpster truck was parked right on the curb outside the restaurant and dust and smells were everywhere. Thankfully it was towards the end of my meal. I've never been to a Crepevine before so figured I'd choose a crepe dish because. I got the California crepe which came with some greens and potatoes. It tasted like standard diner food. I think it would've tasted the same without the crepe. Portions were large and filling, so the prices are fair, especially for the area. Wouldn't mind coming back, but would probably opt for another menu item. read more

First time at this place. I'm occasionally in Berkeley area and decided to do my homework at this place. I ordered the Gilroy sandwich with Brie cheese and vanilla latte.

Saturday just before 9A Plenty of open tables All of the tables say "Reserved" but it's to prevent folks from sitting down first. You order and pay first then they will bring the food to your table. Quick service food, food is of quality, but lacks seasoning. Coffee was undrinkable (had mines black), tasted sour and bitter. I had to get my caffeine fix somewhere else afterwards. Music selection was interesting (think 2000s RnB, Aaliyah, Lloyd, K-Ci and JoJo). Maybe not kid friendly though. The outdoor seating area is nice. read more

We just had an outdoor late lunch in the parklet at the Crepevine on Shattuck. I was very disappointed in my salad with grilled salmon. It seemed to be mainly ribs of romaine lettuce with over green shreds of the leaf. The salmon was a bit dry and overcooked. There was no butter for the roll. My friend, who was here for the first time, thought her pasta was ok though she took most of it home. The service was nonexistent. The wait person stayed busy visiting with her friend inside. We were not checked on by the staff. We had to find her as we were ready to leave. I frequently had lunch here with another friend who worked nearby and I was always pleased. I'm not sure I will be coming back.....save your money, as it was expensive. read more

I am HIGHLY SATISFIED with Crepevine. Would recommend it to anyone in the mood for all-day breakfast or brunch. Order for 2: -1 Cote d'Azur (smoked salmon) Eggs Benedict 10/10 -1 Spanish Omelette 8/10 -1 Cappuccino 4/10 Bill was around $43. Highlights: - Customer Service: staff was so friendly & kept checking in on us while we were eating. - Ambience was beautiful. You can ask them to turn on the heaters if you choose to sit outside. - Food was good! The rosemary potatoes were excellent. The second batch we ordered was a bit overcooked with less flavor but this could just be a one-off... A bit pricey but the portions are a good size. Thank you Crepevine staff for the great experience. read more

I was strolling through the area, and a wonderful scent came from Crepevine so I stopped for brunch! The aesthetic is quaint and homey, and they offer indoor and outdoor seating. The portions are large, the service was pretty quick, and the food itself was good for what it was. I ordered the San Francisco crepe, which came with home fries and a salad. The dijon mustard added a great kick that paired well with the smoked salmon and potatoes. The whole meal fed me easily for two meals; I ate until I was full, and still had enough leftovers for dinner. My meal was $22 including tax and tip, which is a good bargain (especially for brunch in the bay area!). For what it is, this place is pretty solid. Are they the best crepes you'll ever have? If you've lived in California--particularly the Bay--for a while, then maybe not. Still, it's a wonderful place to sit, relax with friends, and eat good food in a nice area. read more

OH MY GOODNESS. Been meaning to try this place for years and I really can't believe I waited so long at this point. We loved our Sunday brunch here. It was so nice to sit outside in the patio area they have set up and eat some great food at great prices with a great staff. We were a little worried when we saw the lines but the hostess has it *down* she was directing everyone everywhere and seated us so quickly. I got the midnight waffle and I absolutely loved it. The brown sugar bourbon bananas and blueberries on top were amazing. We also ordered the juevos rancheros, which came with a ton of potatoes and guacamole. The Santa Fe crepe was amazing and so was the Berkeley sweet crepe. This one came with ice cream and whipped cream!! The hot chocolate was also fantastic The servers came around often checking on us, refilling coffee & really took care of us so thank you. read more

Came here for brunch during the week. Easy street parking on College in the morning during the week. Lots of dining areas, including some very nice outdoor dining spots.

@BigDameEats First time coming to the Shattuck Berkeley location as I am a frequent at the location in the RockRidge district, but very happy with the quality of the food and the dinning is decent. Here we have the New Orleans Benedicts, with House potatoes and a side of chicken Apple sausage. I could let the photo speak for themselves but I figure I leave a few words. The food came out in a very timely fashion on top of being extremely delicious. This New Orleans Benedict (in my opinion) is the best Benedict on the menu. Everything was cooked to perfection, nothing over/under done. The sauce offset the egg and the muffin underneath just perfectly. I personally added the chicken Apple sausage to my plate to give a little extra meat to the already hearty meal. Potatoes were very fresh and not fried in super reused oil, they acutely weren't oil at all which is the best part! Not too much more to say I highly recommend. The outdoor seating is very nice, doesn't have a patio like the rock ride location so there will be some foot traffic if you decide to outdoor dine.

Let me start off by saying that I go to this specific Crepevine location, at least twice a month, and the chefs always do an unbelievable job. Never once has my food been anything but amazing! So definitely expect some of the best entrees and in a short amount of time as well, they are very fast. BUT the customer service has gone down hill. The last FIVE times I have gone I have not been offered, not even ONE single refill for a basic fountain drink or water. And Im sure they expect tips because the food is so good. But knowing that the tip goes to the person who sits behind the counter, when theres no one else eating, and doesn't attend to those already eating? Absolutely no tip from me. Not a fan of tip culture at all. You want a good tip, you work for it! If you want a refill (which are free for fountain drinks and water), you have to walk up with your glass, to the counter where you pay and request one. I wont be going back anytime soon unfortunately, but I hope that by the next time I end up going, they get some more attentive waitresses/waiters. read more

Always have the fastest service and good quality meal! I have tried most of the crepes and my favorite so far is the eggplants crepe! The San Francisco crepe is a little too salty, and it's coming from the smoked salmon. read more

My partner found this place, we decided to try it, and were very pleased with our brunch here. I had the Florentine crepe, which was absolutely delicious, and comes with a side of potatoes and greens. Partner had the Americano (eggs and bacon which also come with a side of potatoes & toast). Portions are very generous, and they are not stingy on drink pours either - try the mimosa, made with fresh orange juice. Service was good, they checked in on us but did not rush us. Nice spot, we will return. read more

First off, a quick disclaimer: The service here was excellent the last time I went, and this review is NOT about the quality of service. There's several things making this a two star review. First, the prices SKYROCKETED since last time I went about a month ago. I used to get a $14 special which included a sandwich, salad, and fries for good value. The price for that is now UP to $18! Not just regular inflation, this felt like a HUGE jump in cost for no apparent reason. Next, the place ADDS a hidden credit card fee to all purchases, which is not only unfair but also rude because customers are NOT informed of this beforehand. Highly recommend paying cash... The place NO longer serves several dishes and 'specials' that they said would remain on the long term menu. Lastly, the portion sizes have DROPPED. I tried out the provence recently after having a good experience with it years ago, and it was SMALLER than ever before. We even decided to give them a SECOND chance after they were exposed for exploiting child labor, and after everything mentioned I don't think I'll be going back or recommending this place to others for a while... OVERALL, this restaurant went from being an affordable option to being EXPENSIVE and not as good as it once was... read more

I came back after my last review and this time I was very happy with the experience, so I'm here to change my rating. The servers would come by and ask if we needed anything, and refilled our water when needed. They also started assigning tables to people instead of freely letting people choose for efficiency and ease of knowing which order is at which table. Food was amazing, I had no qualms with that. We ordered the New Orleans benedict and the Santa Fe Crepe. Both tasted amazing. My recommendation is if you are more of a health conscious person to sub in the potatoes with extra greens. Very happy with this visit, will come again! read more

Yes, I know it's a chain. I've been to the ones on College Avenue and Piedmont Avenue several times when I was rather undecided what to eat when I was out and about. This one has a prominent Shattuck Avenue location in the Gourmet Ghetto with a big hexagon-shaped building on the corner. It also had the fortitude to be open on Thanksgiving when the rest of the 'hood was a ghost town. Jamie W. and I weren't seeing family that day, so we welcomed a chance to eat here. We're all about their salads. Jamie had the worthy $10.95 Athena Salad. It consisted of Romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, kalamata olives, red onions, and feta cheese, dressed in an oregano vinaigrette (photo: http://bit.ly/2BWAxSt). I went for the sweeter $12.50 Granada with arugula, pears, roasted red peppers, sumac onions, caramelized walnuts, and gorgonzola cheese, drizzled with pomegranate vinaigrette. For an additional $3.25, I had them add a grilled chicken breast since I wasn't having poultry that night (photo: http://bit.ly/2G479h6). Nothing artful here but a nice combination of flavors and made with consistency. FOOD - 4 stars...robust salads offer healthy options in a familiar setting AMBIANCE - 3 stars...those tables are crowded together SERVICE - 4 stars...cheery with good follow-through TOTAL - 4 stars...I heard it through the Crepevine RELATED - Looking for other dining options in Berkeley?

I've always passed by Crepevine on the weekends and it was always one of those places that are POPPING, so I figured it's time I finally try the famous Crepevine! I ordered the San Francisco Crepe: Smoked salmon with capers, red onions, spinach, dijon and dill havarti cheese. For the actual dish itself, I thought it was delicious, great quantity, perfect combination of flavors, and included a fresh mix of greens and potatoes! Highly recommend if you like your classic lox bagels. For the price ($14.25), the quantity + quality makes a lot of sense! However, the service was quite slow and the food took some time to come out and unfortunately, my crepe was cold when it arrived. This is mostly just due to the fact that it was a Sunday morning so it was peak brunch time, so I can understand the slower service when there's a never-ending line of customers. Overall, Crepevine is totally worth trying at least once if you're a big brunch fan, especially for savory/sweet crepes! read more

I can't say enough good things. Swooped in just before it got super busy (shortly before 2pm) and immediately ordered and got a table. The staff was incredible throughout and the food was amazing as well. The salads are fresh, the California crepe was mesmerizing, the Benedict was cooked perfectly with delicious hollandaise and the kids menu is very fair (unless you want to add cheese & lettuce/tomato to the kids burgers, you pay $2.50 extra!) . We don't live in the area but will happily come back next time we visit read more

Been here a few times over the years. The best parts: 1) ton of menu options 2) great ambience and location 3) serving sizes are big 4) prices are extremely affordable The only negative for me really is the quality of the food -- always found the flavors to be "average" and not particularly exciting. Still, a favorite go-to that can't be beat for the value. read more

First time trying this restaurant during my lunch break, I was greeted and helped quickly. However, the restaurant itself is a 0. This place is filled with flies and gnats. I literally took one bite of my waffle before 3 flies attacked it. Advice to this business is to get rid of the bugs and clean the establishment better. Don't spend your money here until they get this under control, you will be thoroughly upset. read more

The food here is great. If I rated this place solely based on the food, I would give it 5 stars, but I also rate places based on the service, and the service here was really bad. So I ordered the Florentine crepe with the bistro filet and the server told me that it would be about $19. I thought that this was a lot because the crepe is about $13 and the bistro filet is listed on the menu as around $3. So I asked how much she charged me for the filet and she told me $4 and including tax that makes $19. I then asked if I could change my order to chicken which is $3 and she refused saying that she "already put my order in". Now $3 and $4 isn't that big of a difference and I wouldn't mind paying the extra dollar for the food. I just think that it's bad ethics to list a price on the menu, charge people something different, and then refuse to let them change their orders. read more

I had a pretty good time at Crepevine on a Sunday for brunch. There was a long line stretching down the block, but it didn't take very long to get in. Their system is a little unconventional, but works well. At Crepevine, you order and pay inside the building at the counter, then you are seated and the food is brought to you if you choose to eat there. It caught me off guard, but worked smoothly and there were no issues with the service. The food was great. I got a Tuscany savory crepe and one sunny side up egg on the side. The side salad was a solid salad and was prepared very well with the dressing. The Tuscany crepe itself was pretty good as well and had a great balance of different textures and flavor profiles. The sunny side egg was cooked nicely as well, although I would have preferred if the edges of the egg white weren't crispy. Overall, I think that Crepevine is a great option for casual brunch in the Berkeley area and offers something for everyone's palette. read more
