| - My husband and I have probably been to Crispy Crepe over 10 times. They see us coming and greet us with "welcome back" at this point. I have tried quite a few menu items but the Cookie Butter Waffle is my favorite. The waffles have a yeast flavor (not our American type waffles.. read about the caramelizing pearl sugar, non-bromated flour, etc. on the CC site). It is served with the Biscoff European Cookie Butter, whipped cream, bananas, and topped with a chocolate covered strawberry. :) It is just big enough to leave me satisfied, but not stuffed! The waffles are not huge, but are thick, Belgian-style.
The Bruschetta (add chicken) or Caesar Crepe (I forget the actual name) are both wonderful. My husband enjoys the eggs, turkey bacon, waffle and gratin potato dish, but does wish they offered regular bacon. (Not turkey bacon fans). He also enjoys their sandwiches. My vegetarian son loves a lot of their dishes, crepes, and coffees.
The owner is very nice and on Mother's Day (after eating a large lunch at Cowfish) I wanted a Cookie Butter Waffle that evening. They treated us like royalty and even brought me out a flower for Mother's Day (my second of the day). I thought that was very considerate. The interior is very European (reminds me a lot of Cafe Monte in SouthPark, if you have been there.. very French). Outside patio seating is available. Parking is in the rear in a HUGE (free) garage for those of you who are having a problem with that.
We had one slow waiter experience, which we over looked since they were in training, and one take out apple/brie crepe that was not so hot.. (eat these crepes while they ARE crispy)... not so hot for take out, as they do lose their crispness in a take out container.
I have never minded the kitchen (it is glassed off from the main dining area & I enjoy seeing them at work), and our food is always hot from a heating lamp they use to keep the entire meal hot while getting it ready to bring to the table at one time.
I have not yet tried the salads, but they look fantastic. They do gluten-free dishes, also. While I usually eat gluten free, I have found I can eat these waffle with the non-bromated flour without problems. I will definitely be continuing to visit Crispy Crepe for my Cookie Butter Waffle fix! :)
