Delicious! Ordered one savory crepe, one fruit crepe and two perfect peanut butter and banana smoothies. That’s all, just want to share.

It’s really such a great hidden gem. I started going when I first started driving and could travel to the city (I’m 34 now). Haven’t been in years though, wish they had vegan crepes!

Interesting. I’ve only been in the area for about a year. Decided to try it through door dash which can be hit or miss. It all tasted fresh and made with actual “loving” care. I haven’t even looked where they are located. Thanks for sharing your experience. Maybe they’ll do vegan soon.

When you get a chance, definitely stop in! It’s small, but has good vibes. It’s tucked away on a side street off of Thayer, I think the one at the corner of Beatnic.

Nutella, Strawberry, and Cinnamon is my go-to.

I've never been, thanks for the recommendation! Crepe Corner in Pawtuxet Village is amazing, my wife and I have been many times, if you're ever in that area I highly recommend you check them out!

Our family loves that place! The sweet crepes are great and the savory are too.

I just had lunch there on Thursday. It was fantastic. Had a ham, egg and cheese. Looking to trying more of their flavors.

Every time I've went they barely fill it my crepes and the waffles are equally disappointing. On top of insane prices, no toppings for the crepes, and you could likely die in front of the staff and they wouldn't notice. No one else I know really likes them either unless you're into overpriced college cafeteria food. Bland, thin, pricey crepes served on a dollar store paper plate, nothing more.

Crepe corner, Zenniken, Naughty Waffle, and other places are absolutely much better.

A thick crepe is a pancake. You like pancakes.

Uh, ok? I'm not paying $10 (not including tip) for a tbsp of Nutella on some thin dough served on a paper plate that was made in 15 seconds. It's literally fast street food at triple the price.

I'll go a block over or down the street for a much better experience at a lower price.

It’s definitely an occasional splurge thing for me. It’s good to get different perspectives from locals. Thanks.

I’ll try those places you recommend.

Sure!

Just be careful, many of the local Redditors on here have some of the worst food takes. Oddly, it's usually the least upvoted or even downvoted comments that suggest the true hidden gems... sometimes it feels like many of the people on here are tourists.

Anyway, I'll eat a sock if you prefer La Creperie over the others.
