Kind of let down by the overall taste and demeanor. Crepe stuffing was super good but you could tell the actual crepes are premade. Drip coffee and coffee drinks were not good - drip coffee has ran out and we had to ask twice for it to be made. Chai latte did not taste like a chai latte. Service wasn't super friendly either. When you walk up the register, the male employee just asks "yes??" With no greeting. read more

Tried a perfect balance of a savory crepe and a dessert crepe - the pesto chicken and the strawberry bananutella crepe. Both of them were brilliant and were the perfect brunch. They older gentleman who made our crepes was delightful and they also have open mic nights on the first and third Friday of the month. This quaint place is tucked away in a fairly old school and quiet part of town. I highly recommend it. read more

Saw the Yelp reviews online and stopped by for brunch/lunch after shopping at nearby Lowe's. It's a small space but there are tables outside too. There were many people here which is always a good sign. You order at the register and can watch them make your crepes on the round crepe irons from your table if you sit in the right place. The whole room smelled of onions, bacon and other savory flavors when they made our order. I had the Egg and Bacon with Chipotle mayo and other family had the classic... this really hit the spot - just enough to be full but not stuffed. Liked the lemonade too. The eggs are brushed over the crepe as it cooks and the other ingredients are sauteed on the other crepe iron before being added. They will bring out your crepes when they are ready (they cool quickly) - and the fact that there are only two crepe irons mean some in your party might be served before others... no big deal if you know that's how it's going to happen. Staff were very nice and attentive... gave us a buy 10 and get one free card without even asking. They obviously care about their business which gives me a nice warm feeling. This is an "off the beaten path" kind of place that is fun to visit. Yelpers said it is hard to find - yes, the signage is a bit tricky but not so much if you know that in advance. Keep an eye out and you'll find something worth skipping Denny's to come here instead. Lots of desert crepes which we did not try, but there is always next time. read more

Wasn't really impressed with this place. The decor and vibe of this place is super cute and I really appreciated that but the crepes weren't anything that special for me. I got the chicken pesto and the monkey turtle crepe. I liked how the monkey turtle crepe wasn't too sweet but it was very rubbery. The chicken pesto had a taste to it that I can't explain any other way besides weird. It just didn't taste right and I won't be coming back to this place read more

This small mom & pop shop is located across the street from Old Poway Park. We came here in a Sunday for brunch & decided to sit outdoors to enjoy the beautiful view of the park. We all ordered savory crepes & the seasonings were on point. I ordered the Southwestern crepe which was very light & pleasant tasting. We didn't get to try any of the sweet crepes since one serving was already filling. I'll definitely be back to try out their other flavors! read more

I wanted to love this place. My group was so excited to visit after wrapping up a nearby hike. We were pleasantly surprised to see it was nested in a fun area adjacent to the farmers market. However, the place was SO smokey inside. Not enough ventilation for the cooking. The food was presented well but was of recognizably lower quality. Much of the contents of my crepe were charred to the point of being inedible (maybe this is where he smoke came from?). The lattes my table ordered were wayyyy too hot and tasted really bad. We ended up leaving them on the table practically full. I did notice the restaurant was mostly empty when we came in during a popular weekend time. This was confusing given all the great Yelp reviews. But unfortunately I can now see why... read more

If you like a raw onion crepe come here! We ordered the kitchen sink and another breakfast crepe; we decided to come here instead of eating at the farmer's market food stalls. We love crepes and were looking forward to a great breakfast. The shop was stuffy and hot upon entering. The kitchen could use some organizing. The service, however, was friendly and quick. Again, the reason for the 1 star is that these crepes were not only underwhelming but gross and lacking of the description on the menu. We could not find the egg in our breakfast egg crepes; it should called Raw Onion Lover's Dream. Will NEVER come back here again. read more

Just walked in to this place and it was disgusting. After waiting for someone to come take my order for 5 minutes I decided to use the restroom since I had yet to see anyone. The restroom was so gross. Redish brown stains all around the toilet seat, filthy floors, and no paper towels. After using the restroom I walked back to the front to order. While waiting I observed so much filth. The food prep station was a dirty mess and everything was so filthy looking. I'm glad nobody came out to take my order; I decided there were too many red flags and walked out. I've never done that at a restaurant before. The floors (actually the entire restaurant) look like it's never been cleaned. I would not chance eating from a place like this. read more

So it's deep into Poway where freeways don't go and it takes forever and a half to get to, but that didn't stop us a second time around. Good crepe places are like haircut places, seemingly abundant but not really memorable unless they mess up. This place is obviously fabulous, if you couldn't tell by the tone of my review. The plating is five star for a neighborhood hole in the wall. There are many crepe flavors to satiate your sweet and savory cravings. They include fruit if you get savory and you're able to get sides of items like bacon. The coffee is strong and the service is great! Great choice if you wanna get away from the crowds. read more

My husband's aunt has been here before and told us great things about this place. Since we were in the area we decided to give it a try. You order at the register and they will bring your food to you. We decided to sit outside since it was warm. This place is in a cute little town in Poway. It was perfect for a little husband and wife brunch date :) Now the crepes are big and filling. I ordered the Southwest crepe, it had eggs, chicken, bacon, avocado, and cheese in it. With a chipotle sauce on top. It was so good! They stuffed the crepe very generously. Even though I was full, I had to try one of their sweet crepes. My husband and I shared a Nutella strawberry and banana crepe. With powdered sugar and chocolate syrup on top with whip cream on the side. Very delicious!

Got their strawberry banana Nutella crepe and it was delicious. You get a nice spread of Nutella, a whole banana and a couple strawberries. Fruit was nice and fresh, I don't think you really can go wrong with strawberries and Nutella. The crepe itself had a good texture, and a neutral taste, which makes sense since they use it for both sweet and savory. Overall a solid crepe "food truck". read more

The reason for the 4 stars was because I have a peanut allergy and made the cashier aware of it and requested if they could simply take extra pre-caution in preparing our food; instead of just understanding, and complying with the request, it seemed like the worker wasnt understanding that I just wanted things to be cleaned off before cooking our food, and felt like she was trying to scare me off from eating here. Additionally, the workers need some slight education in food allergens, and the difference between peanuts, and tree nuts. If I didn't know any better I would've walked out disappointed in not being able to eat here because the worker was not understanding my ask but instead making me fearful of cross contamination, which I am well aware of but it can be prevented by a quick wipe down, and clean utensils to cook with???

The Strawberry crepe I had split in half and it was ok. I asked for less strawberry syrup as I figured it has high fructose corn not that I'm looking for healthy meal right now. The strawberries were fresh, but I really would've preferred for the whipped cream to be real instead of non-dairy (Apologies to my non-vegan reviewers) Maybe I'm not used to the strawberry syrup, but it did have a strange taste. I think it was the strawberries. The Grand Marnier was not noticeable, but I did see her put it on.

I'm not dissing the cooks but they ain't all cooking. But the service was quite mediocre. The ambiance was filled with decorative neurological ideas which I quite enjoyed. PS.

I enjoyed chatting with the guy who artfully made my crepe and added some whipped cream to honor my Mom. Thank you for a lovely experience and delicious treat this morning.

Froglanders Crepes & Yogurt

Felt the need to expand on my previous review:…read more Crepes are so gooey and delicious here. Our favorites are the lemon and brown sugar crepe and the Nutella, strawberries, and bananas crepe. Also, they have delicious coffee. We always get the flat white, which is the perfect combo with the lemon and sugar crepe. Their peach green tea and boba was great and their froyos are better than yogurtland, imo. Finally, the girls who work there are so lovely. They're friendly, kind, and helpful. So glad this place exists!!

My fiancé is allergic to strawberry and banana and he still ordered that one but the staff accommodated by offering to put it on the side. Crepe was definitely on the pricier end though, roughly $14 just for that. Delicious way to end my night trip back to LA though. The only dessert place on the way back from SD that's open until late.

Breakfast of Champions, hence called Champion Crepe: Ham, eggs, cheese.

Simply the best froyo.

The young man tool working with her was useless. Instead of doing things to help prep the crepes waiting to be made or assembled, he was on his phone or talking to some friends who showed up behind the tent. I hope the tip I left. As well as all others go to her as he did not do anything but spell my name wrong. I hope the 1/2 hr wait will be worthwhile. I write this not to be critical of the small business but point out the useless tool and hope better service is on other weekends.

Ready for the catering.

They specialize in pistachio flavors which is unique. They have everything from coffee, matcha, cold brews with cold foam. One of my fav pistachio lattes in San Diego!

I got a vanilla latte, tiramisu and a baklava. The coffee I wasn't too impressed with, because the vanilla latte I had was somewhat powdery? It was a bit grainy. Probably won't get again. The baklava was okay, personally found it a bit too sweet but technically that's normal...but I'd advise eating more than one in one sitting lol. By far the best thing I've had from this place is the tiramisu. The tiramisu I had was amaaaazing! Super fresh, not too sweet, and not too strong! Perfect layers and they were adequately portioned. The service was a bit slow but perhaps we went at a slow time but overall it's not a bad place to get a small dessert. Coffee wasn't stellar so I'll pass on the coffee next time.

Donutopolis

Donutopolis is the best donut shop I've ever had the pleasure of eating at. If you live in the San…read moreDiego area it is worth your time to visit. In fact even if you don't live here you should stop by. You won't regret it. If you want mediocre pastries that do nothing but scratch your sweet tooth, there are dozens of places out there that are happy to do the bare minimum. Donutopolis in Poway is not one of those places. For the same price if not better than their competitors you will received not only some of the best donuts you have ever eaten, from flawless classics to innovative specialties, you will also receive so of the best customer service you have ever had at a donut shop, or most other restaurants for that matter. The staff have made their small corner store into a friendly and comfortable place to pickup treats for your events or sit down for a fulfilling breakfast any day of the week, and with special made-to-order treats for larger events, such as their giant birthday donut, Donutopolis is your one stop shop for all your donut needs. A personal favorite of mine is their maple bacon bar which I can comfortably say is the single best maple bacon donut I have ever had, and they are consistent. In fact once when I went in to get one before work they were sold out, and when I asked if they had any the baker offered to make me one right then and there. For no extra cost he didn't just sprinkle bacon bits on a plain maple bar and call it a day, he used fresh maple icing to glue the bits onto the bar, a bit of extra effort that I truly appreciated as I had to eat it on the go. It's the little things like that which show me that the people running this store and making these donuts aren't just doing the bare minimum, they care about their craft and they are dedicated to bringing you fresh and delicious donuts every time you visit, never cutting corners and never disappointing.

I'm sure a lot of people like it but I found the donut very dry and lacking flavor…read more The staff was kind though, he even let me take away without the extra .10 for the glazed old fashioned.
