A true family business and local Evanston gem. You can feel the welcome the moment you walk in the door. They husband and wife team introduced themselves and there some snd staff by name. The decor and is a simple warm country style. A lot of natural wood makes you feel at home. Nothing corporate about this place or these folks. I cannot say enough about their hospitality! The menu is straightforward and descriptions explain exactly what you are ordering. Their offerings are fresh and ingredients simple but exotic when combined. It's a healthy version of the crepe and you feel good about anything you order. So much if what they offer is literally made in house fresh from scratch. As well, they source local to provide the best ingredients and keep it local as possible. The sweet or savory crepes are not small and are a meal unto themselves. No being stingy on freshest of ingredients here. They load their offerings up. They is something for everyone here including the young children. They also have a great selection for beverages. Again, fresh and healthier than most. A big turn on is their iced coffee served with coffee iced cubes! Think about that. As well, they serve their house made fresh sauces to go. Don't be caught without them in your fridge. They keep it fun here and they make the guilty pleasures seem okay. I wanted to take more photos but when I sat down I devoured my first crepe so quick I forgot to snap a shot. I suppose it's just reason to return very soon. read more

This is a great local spot where you can really feel the friendly and family-owned atmosphere, with the owners greeting you as you come in and working hard up front. Ryan and Kathia were so welcoming and kind, introducing themselves and making conversation when I came to pick up my order, and all their ingredients are fresh and sourced straight from the farm. Their menu is extensive and unique, which made it hard to choose what I wanted! I decided on the Lox & Loaded while my wife got the River Valley Florentine with chicken, and we split an O'Cinnamon Rolls crepe. I could taste the freshness of the ingredients and everything was so flavorful, though I feel like the sushi-style crepes might not be as filling as a regular crepe (but that could be a mental thing since they're cut into pieces and the regular crepes already look substantial XD). We also got an Oatchata drink, which tastes like a lighter horchata but still very refreshing! It was a bit too sweet for my wife, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. There are plenty of other crepes that I want to try, so it's safe to say that we will be back! read more

Ryan and Kathia were again so gracious and friendly. I would definitely come back to try others. read more

This crepe place will have you coming back for more! Ryan, the owner, makes crepes, asks customers how they liked their food while wiping down tables. One of the customers feedback was she and her son were waiting for them to open up again post-lockdown and were so happy to be back. My friend was telling me about this place, and it lived up to the hype! Ryan, the owner, knew my friend by her name. The decor was equally warm, and welcoming as the service. I loved the Bee theme decor and the optimistic quotes all over giving it a positive vibes only feel! Thry have a chalkboard banner in the wall that wraps around which is at children's height for a fun, kid-friendly touch. They have outdoor seating with 4 sturdy wood picnic tables and each having 4 stools. They have ample seating inside and are well prepared and organized line to handle high demand ( like the dmv and airports)! This was my impression before I even had a taste of the food! When my friend and I made it to the line, we have 3 menu boards of delicious savory and sweet crepes to choose from, with entire boards dedicated to each. I became guilty of waffling...So many yummy choices! I settled on a seasonal one of Ratatouille in buckwheat batter for my savory pick. My friend and I shared a Cinnamon Roll sushi style one made in buckwheat batter (It makes a difference is what I told myself to ease the guilt)! Ryan, the owner, is a magician who works magic with juggling multiple orders simultaneously that you fell like it's brunch and a show! Once we got to the counter, there were drink options and the Oat-chata, spin on the Horchata, was worthwhile because it even had ice coffee cubes in it and was refreshing on a hot day! We had eagerly awaited our crepes, which were fresh and instantly ready to be devoured. And just when we thought it couldn't get any better, Ryan brings us half of the seasonal sweet crepe of peach cobbler to try and it was like summer in a bite! You could actually taste the fresh pie crust bits he had mentioned as we had been drooling while the crepes were being made live in action! read more

Super amazing crepes and so so good! I love the customer service and the chef that cooked it. I went to the Schaumburg location for the farmers market, and they were there serving hundreds of customers. Chef was super patient and accommodating. I got the strawberries/banana crepe w/ Nutella & he was so sweet about adding more strawberries and less bananas on it. In addition to that, after I paid, he asked me if I wanted additional toppings for free! That was so sweet of him to do so! He gave me pie crumbs/crusts, more Nutella! The crepe was honestly one of the best crepes I've had in my crepe journey. Highly recommend not only the service, but the crepes! You get to watch them make it & it's a super thick crepe' not a thin one. Super flavorful. Price wasn't the worse either for how thick it was, and how engaging they are. They're trying to feed the hungry & they most definitely fed me when I was hungry. Filled me up completely and it was so delicious! 11/10 would recommend! Great service, engaging, entertaining, family friendly, big smiles all around! read more

I added an extra star because some businesses just fricken deserve more stars and this business definitely deserves it. Simply put this place is absolutely amazing! I'm just pissed at myself for not trying it sooner. We were happily greeted by Ryan who went over the menu and suggested something for us the parents and three kids. Everyone loved their food and found it suited each of our differing tastes. Everything tasted fresh and made with care and attention to detail. Ryan was so helpful and even brought us a sample to try. The kids are already begging to go back tomorrow. Maybe not tomorrow but we will definitely be back very soon! read more

Mmmmm. The Mamacita's Chicken Enchilada crepe with homemade mole sauce is delicious. I've eaten it twice and I'd eat one right now if I could. They'll add jalapeños for you too. The sweet banana nutella crepes are also excellent and a kid favorite, especially with the homemade raspberry sauce on the side. Just ask for a squirt of it next to your crepe. The vibe is welcoming, usually with bob marley playing. Just good food in a place that has a nice energy. The hours are limited. Only Thurs-Sun 7am until 2pm right now. But I'm hoping they expand them soon. Great place! Nice staff. So glad they're here. read more

The food is delicious. The service is beyond compare. This is a business that truly values their clientele, and never fails to show it. They always come through with a little something extra that makes us smile and want to keep coming back. Five stars earned every single time!

TLDR: I can't justify paying $21 for a bland soggy crepe, and diarrhea inducing iced tea, and many many miserable minutes under the hot sun. Won't be coming back. Deets: Ordered a vegetarian Florentine crepe from their booth at the Evanston farmers market. The upside: the crepe was packed with veggies. Treat your body like a temple amiright! The mozz with mushroom combo was yummy. Garlic with Basel added flavor into the otherwise bland crepe. The downside: (1) the queuing and the whole logistic were chaotic and messy. There were one line for what seemed like savory crepes, another line for sweet crepe, a third line for juices, and people kept cutting in queue. I was cut in line by 4 customers and waited for 35 min under the hot sun. (2) the salad and tomatoes they added onto the crepe at the end made the crepe soggy and mushy. Super weird and unpleasant texture. (3) Also got their berry lemongrass iced tea. It sent me straight to the bathroom. read more

If I could give this place 10 stars I truly would. I visited their spot in the Logan Square farmer's market and honestly... life changing. Their sweet and savory options all sound so good and their options cater to everyone. They use local and fresh ingredients in their crepes too. Ryan who was making the crepes has awesome hair and is an extremely cool dude. Normally my expectation for quick service food spots is that the person behind the grill/stove/cooking object is sweating, tired, and just trying to put out all the orders. It makes sense because I can imagine it's HARD to be working in hot weather with a hot stove and tons of people constantly placing orders. But Ryan was energetic, smiling, and took the time to make conversation with my fiancé and I and introduce himself. He's a pro at making crepes too! We got the B K T, chicken florentine, and strawberry banana Nutella crepes. Each one was PHENOMENAL. Tastes so fresh, and they top each one with various sauces/toppings according to your preference. The fillings were generous, and the outsides of the crepes were crispy and perfect. Truly the best crepes I've ever had. I wish I had tipped them more but I will say I will ABSOLUTELY be back and will tell everyone about it! Thanks for a 10/5 experience! read more

I absolutely 100% loved this little family owned crepe restaurant! From arriving, the place is just so inviting and had a cozy feel with beautiful wooden tables and accents. Also, the owner Ryan is such a nice man and I enjoyed hearing about how they got started. He and his wife started working from home serving breakfast on their porch to working at farmers markets till they could get their own store. I love the drive! My friend and I had a wonderful breakfast. She got the banana and hazelnut and I got the O Cinnamon rolls. It was fun being able to see them whip up our crepes. Both were amazing and we were totally satisfied. Actually, mine was on the larger side so I ended up taking some of mine home for my kids to try. They loved too! Self serve coffee and tea are available with all reusable utensils including glass straws. Nice way to save the environment! I really loved the beautifully designed mugs to use. Also, they had delicious cucumber water too. I encourage you all to get there asap! I can't wait to come back and try something else out. read more

Gotta B Crepes is a great local business in Evanston. The couple who own the business started the business on their front porch, sold crepes at various farmers markets and now they have their own storefront on Central. It's a welcoming space whether you're meeting up with a group or going alone. The crepes are delicious and they have so many to choose from including savory and sweet options. They can tell you where each ingredient comes from which is why I don't mind paying a bit more here. This is truly one of the best farm to table local businesses I have ever come across and I hope to return soon! read more

Grabbed a bite here for our last meal in Chicago and boy were we happy we did! The owner himself was cooking up the crepes and was extremely kind. We were blown away by the Huevos a la Mexicana and Strawberry banana crepes! One of my favorite breakfast spots in Illinois that has that local family touch. There's ample seating inside, but we opted for a nice wooden table outside because- why not on a beautiful Sunday morning?! read more

Gotta B Crepes is a great example of what a successful startup business is all about, in addition to the dedication, hard work, and patience it can take to get to the next stage. From Magic Pan to their front porch, to the Evanston Farmers Market to their very first official storefront space in Evanston, Ryan and Kathia made it happen. I recently had the pleasure of dining in their new space on Central and doing a little work from there as well. Here are some things to consider on your next visit... The space itself is warm and inviting with lots of natural light and plenty of custom seating (I'd say you can get around 60 people in there at a time). The decor is adorable! I was surprised at how busy these guys got around the lunch hour. I looked up from my computer and realized it was time to go. Since I was done eating, I didn't want to take tables away from other patrons. Not sure if they have free WiFi, but it was pretty slow. I wouldn't recommend coming in to do any work, unless you have patience. In truth, I didn't get any computer work done. I just couldn't get anything to load fast enough during my stay. These guys are pretty busy, and they may have the Internet set up that way to keep from people like me sitting for a long time (ha!). Perhaps a kink they are working out? On to the food. The ingredients are quality and locally-sourced and a real treat (though I personally couldn't afford to dine their daily on my budget). I was surprisingly REALLY full from what I did order, so the value factor is totally there. I had the Jake's Country Meats Ham & Cheddar crepe with an egg on top. The ham was deliciously thick and cut into large cubes. Co-owner Ryan, said this is one of his favorites...so take note if you're reading this ;-) Loaded with fresh greens and cheese, I opted for the sauces on the side. My dining partner ordered the Bigger Bacon Maple crepe cut into sushi style rolls. It had cheese, bacon, scrambled eggs, and local maple syrup in it. It was truly my favorite, because who doesn't love bacon and maple? We also tried a lemon crepe and cinnamon crepe (these were delivered to our table as an unexpected surprise :-) They were delicious! Complimentary cucumber water for the win. Excellent customer service, and everyone was working soooo hard! My only suggestion is to keep up with the bathrooms, because the paper towels filled up quickly :-) This is a business worth your support. I wish these guys the best! read more

Adorable and delicious crepe shop in Evanston! We tried a sweet crepe (banana Nutella) and a savory crepe (mamasita chicken enchilada). These were super delicious!! They were a little on the pricey side (8-13$) but they were packed full and very filling. The ingredients were delicious and the add ons they suggested (mushrooms and greens in the savory) were totally right on. We went in the afternoon, but I will definitely be returning for a breakfast and brunch spot. read more

I can probably count with one hand all the times I've had crepes. If you're like me and you don't eat crepes that often, Gotta B Crepes might just change that. They've been on my radar for some time because I've heard the story of how they got started and the following they've built from selling at different farmer's markets. I was lucky enough to check them out one sunny Friday morning. The restaurant had lots of windows so it contributed to the vibe of the place - bright, airy and cheerful! They have an open kitchen, and you can see their crepe makers lined up behind a glass partition. The crepes vary in taste, texture and shape. I was feeling indulgent so I went for the Bigger Bacon Maple. Not only was it the perfect combo of sweet and savory, but the preparation/plating was nothing I've experienced before. First, it was rolled up like a burrito then cut up into 7 pieces. It was "sushi style" per the menu. Pretty neat. I was also able to try Jake's Country Meats Ham & Cheddar and some of the sweet crepes. The ingredients tasted fresh (you can actually see some of them lined up on the counter). The savory crepes were a bit thicker than the sweet ones. Loved the consistency. They have homemade sauces that you can douse on the savory crepes - my fave was the mushroom sauce! I suggest sharing a couple of their sweet and savory options with your dining companion/s so you can get the best of both worlds. They have plenty of seating, and parking isn't too crazy. Some other perks include the complimentary cucumber water, bottomless custom-roasted coffee and bottomless hot tea. The staff was extremely friendly and their hot pink uniforms were a nice touch :) read more

Such a great atmosphere to be in for breakfast or lunch! I came here around 8 a.m. and loved the warmness throughout the space. Nice decorations and even tables and benches made from one of the farmers adds a delightful touch! Crepe expert, Ryan, was helpful with the questions I had in regards to the menu. What was even better was the crepe-making process: they will cater towards your tastebuds and you can add (or remove) ingredients to your crepe. They'll ask you questions throughout the crepe-cooking which is amazing. Veggie Pesto Scramble was sizzlin' in flavor. Microgreens were on point and fresh and the mozzarella was crunchy on the sides, yum! Got to learn about where each ingredient came from and remember this: lots of love and hard work goes into each and every crepe because of the stellar ingredients. I got to try the sweet choice sweet crepe in lemon. Zesty and sweet make for a great combo. It is as simple as a crepe can be but sometimes simple is the best way to go. I'm itching to go back! read more

Gotta B Crepes - Spring Feast Crepe with Egg - Street Vendors Near Me - Highland Park, Illinois

I used to have Gotta B Crepes at the Evanston Farmer's Market when its in season, so I was excited to come for the Yelp Elite '19 event they hosted! First off, the owners are The Friendliest Couple ever. You'd be hard pressed to find more sincere, wonderful small business owners than these guys, and the entire cafe space is warm and inviting, and kid-friendly. They use fresh ingredients sourced directly from farmers ( a big bonus in my book) and that freshness comes across in the food. I had the Jack's country meats ham and cheddar crepe, with spinach and mushrooms. It was yummy and stuffed well, and portions are certainly large enough for a healthy appetite. I also loved my dessert crepe choice, which was the banana Nutella crepe? You just can't go wrong with that combination. Oh and for those who may be concerned about potentially long wait times with made-to-order crepes, have no fear - they were the most efficient I've never seen and produced orders steadily and efficiently. I was impressed, they have the rhythm down! I'll be back for sure! read more

Here's what you need to know: this is the perfect restaurant (and I don't say that lightly). Delicious food, incredible service, delightful ambiance, local owners who are amazingly warm people and obsessive about their food quality (from the Belgian chocolate to the made in house and patrons. It's inspiring, really. I've tried 4 different crepes here, the housemade strawberry lemonade, and their delicious iced coffee (with actual coffee ice cubes so the coffer flavor doesn't get watered down). Loved the chicken Florentine crepe and the homemade Callebaut Belgian chocolate brownie crepe the most. Huevos rancheros crepe for breakfast was also awesome. Thee salsa and mole sauce is simply AMAZING too. The presentation of the crepes is gorgeous with some of them presented in a sushi bite style. Very creative and functional. The outdoor seating is so charming and the indoor space is huge and super inviting. It really is the perfect neighborhood restaurant. We spent about $20/person with a drink after tax read more

Went here for the first time today with my sister and it was AMAZING. We both got the strawberry banana crepe (me with chocolate, her with honey and cinnamon) and iced tea. Literally everything was absolutely delicious! The whipped cream they use on top of the crepes is homemade and so creamy and tasty! The staff could not have been friendlier and the whole experience was wonderful. Can't wait to go back!! read more

Although Yelp lists this business in Evanston, it's actually a vendor at different locations in the Chicago area -- downtown and within the surrounding suburbs. I see them at the Schaumburg Farmer's Market every Friday. Yet, I never gave them a second thought until yesterday, when I was still craving crepes from the previous night's Yelp event at another crepe place. I was a bit hesitant because of the price tag (some of the crepes are $10), but I wanted to give them a shot. Here's why I love them: they use fresh, local ingredients from farms they work with and the vendors at the different markets they go to. The batter includes butter, milk, eggs, and lemon honey from local farms. The fruits, veggies, meats, and cheese used in each crepe are also seasonally and locally sourced -- which is pretty amazing. The way this place does business is the way it should be. Local businesses supporting local businesses?? Awesome!! Gotta B Crepes offers sweet (dessert) and savory (meals) crepes -- honey, chocolate, cinnamon, fruit, pizza sauce, veggies, ham & cheese, and Nutella are just a few of the ingredients in their crepe offerings. After going back and forth between the Fiesta Veg De Sol (a salsa, veggie, and black bean crepe) and the River Florentine, I decided upon the latter. The River Florentine has sauteed [River Valley] crimini mushrooms, caramelized onions, and local greens melted with [Cedar Grove] mozzarella and [Kathia's] porcini mushroom sauce. (Brackets indicate which local business the ingredient is from.) It's fun to watch them make the crepes in front of you -- they're pros at it! The crepes, after folded and cooked, are the size of a breakfast omelet. Some of them are cut up into little rolls, while others are triangles covered with strawberries and sugar. Each crepe is a cute culinary creation. My River Florentine did a delicious dance in my mouth. I devoured it quickly, sad when it was gone. I do wish the $10 crepe was a bit bigger, but it's not a bad price to pay for the fresh ingredients and service. I saw some of the dessert crepes and drooled over them -- I think I'll get the Strawberries & Banana next time (it's cheaper too)! As I was chowing down on my meal, I was chatting with another local business owner (just another reason that Yelp is awesome) about this vendor and learned the story behind Gotta B Crepes. The husband and wife duo decided to start their own crepe business after one they loved closed. They set up a crepe station in their garage -- using a pancake griddle for their creations -- before moving to a commercial kitchen and appearing at farmers' markets, supporting other businesses. You can find them at various locations this summer. Here's Gotta B Crepe's schedule for 2013 as pulled from their website: Tuesdays: -Museum of Contemporary Art June 4-October 29 | 7AM - 3PM Wednesdays: -Abby's Crepes @ Green Market City June - Oct 23 | 7AM - 1PM -Ravinia Farmers Market June - Oct | 7AM - 1PM -Highwood Evening Gourmet Market June 5-Sept 4 | 4PM -9PM Thursday: -Lutheran General Guest Chef Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner June 6 & 20, July 18, Aug 1,15,29 Friday: -Schaumburg Farmers Market June 14-Oct 25 | 7AM - 1PM Saturday: -Printers Row June 15-Oct 26 | 7AM - 1PM *Will miss final Sat of each month -Evanston Farmers Market Now-Nov 2 7AM - 1PM -Randolph Street Vintage Market Final Sat & Sun (May - Sept) Now-Nov 2 | 8AM - 5PM -Abby's Crepes @ Green City Market Approx 1790 N.

I really wanted to like this place, but was pretty disappointed by the strawberry, banana, chocolate crepe I got at the Evanston Farmers Market. Instead of Nutella, I chose the homemade chocolate sauce. However, it wasn't very rich or flavorful and ended up just sort of soaking into the crepe to make it slimy and unappealing. The bananas were also a lot riper than I would have liked them to use, so they sort of overtook the dish. I've read a lot of good comments about their savory crepes, so I might be willing to go back and try one but I definitely wouldn't get sweet crepe again. read more

Wow!!! I'm not certain what I felt like before I came here this morning... But I'm certain I've been under the weather... While eating this and just feeling so great in this place, I wonder ??? Can food really heal a person... Maybe it's just - Gotta Be Crepes God I don't even write reviews... I swear after I ate this and how filling it was... I felt like it musta been a pull from the Aleph, I just wanted to go in the kitchen and find out what their secret... Was it some magical ingredients in the back... was it the incredible hospitality that so seemingly didn't even feel like anyone was trying to be nice they just were... maybe Google Alexa and all the ai's just rerouted everyone who loves the right vibes to show up here at the right time... Surely it must be possible... I'm experiencing it right now... As I listen to this sweet mix on whatever they use to choose their music and just laugh how I coulda sworn I was feeling low on energy and like I rolled out the wrong side of the bed or something... Some seeming voice just said... Maybe gotta be crepes ... And tho I knew I had some work to do today... I got in the car and drove here. It really must be true... If not food... maybe #TheWayItsGottaBee (a hashtag I read when ai was here once) was really the magic that healed me. They've got good vibes... Yes--- They've got a mix 'a delicious food Yes--- They've got IT... Whatever it is ... Tick Yes --- It feels so right to go here... And today.. I had to write this message for you...cuz I swear this experience healed me. Let their Mystical Bee Mascot fool you... Presence with the food ... The experience... The Ingredients I see them posting on their Instagram with delicious #CrepeCreations ... That they source from local or sustainable means... "What feels right" I've gotta say was definitely happiness... and like I read on their site... Happiness is healthy, and today it made me feel happy... Thanks Kathia... Thanks Ryan... Thanks cool People I chatted to in line! This is definately what I needed! I don't know what else to say... Please let's do ourselves a favor and come here to this place ! read more

Wowwy wow. This place was recommended by a fellow foodie friend and now we're totally hooked. I fully agree with all the other reviews that 5 stars just isn't enough to describe how great they are. All the amazing food with carefully sourced ingredients cooked to perfection... and such lovely people who aren't pretentious or snobby. Huzzah! We had our take-out ready (impressed by strict COVID practices) but stayed to watch chef Ryan at work... and he treated us to his daily special just to be sweet. Peach cobbler crepe! Try everything, come often, and support people who do it RIGHT. Yum yum. read more

Gotta B Crepes - Veggie Pesto Scramble and an "Oatchata" - Street Vendors Near Me - Highland Park, Illinois

Capitol One Cafe had Gotta B Crepes at their facility today in Lincoln Park. Free crepes??? I'm so there. Didn't know what to expect. Had crepes b4, they were ok until today. I tried the River Valley Florentine Chicken crepe and was blown away. Fresh, local ingredients. Sauces made from scratch, very tasty. Also tried their strawberries & bananas crepe with Nutella & whipped cream. One word - delish!!! The owner was there talking about how passionate he and his wife are about cooking, making their sauces and to hear his employee, who was there also, talk about how great it is working for him & his wife and how they are inspiring her. Made the meal even more delightful, flavorful. Check out their website for locations they are at like Farmer's Market. I will be looking for them again. I like to call their creations "Food Oxygen." I can breathe now. read more
