Steamed milk on a ham, with double shots of ham. But true nature of ham isn't revealed until the ham hits the horizon. Ham hits horizon, horizon. We chase hams, but we reach larger purpose. We learn that ham is nice, even when ham isn't.

Went here almost by accident....not what I was expecting for breakfast at a Cafe.

Best crepes in Tucson! I haven't had a crepe here I didn't like. They're made fresh, so it may take a bit longer to get your food than your average diner, but they have board and card games to play at your table while you wait. The restaurant is small (20 tables or so) but usually isn't too busy and I've never had to wait for a table, even on a Sunday. I highly recommend!

I stopped for breakfast here on this morning on a whim, and I'm so glad I did! It's a cozy, casual little breakfast spot serving crepes and coffee. The menu is limited -- crepes only! -- so only come here if you're definitely in the mood for crepes. This is definitely a case of doing only one thing and doing it very well, though. They do both savory and sweet crepes, which will likely be able to satisfy people all along the savory vs. sweet breakfast spectrum. I got the "Stuffed Frenchie," which straddles the sweet-savory line by combining egg and brie inside the crepe, and then being topped with cinnamon, maple syrup, strawberries, and whipped cream. I also added bacon at the suggestion of the woman working the counter, and it was a great addition. My breakfast companion got the "Olivia," which is their most popular crepe. It's strawberry and Nutella, topped with chocolate, granola, powdered sugar, and whipped cream. She also added banana to it. Both crepes were very good -- the Stuffed Frenchie felt more like a solid breakfast, while the Olivia felt like a decadent dessert. Cafe Marcel also has an assortment of tea and coffee drinks, including a delicious nutella mocha. It's a great pairing with the Olivia!

I have driven by Cafe Marcel many times and have always wanted to go in and try it. I finally made it in this morning amd ordered their Breakfast Crepe with bacon TO GO so I could eat at work. As soon as I opened the box, I was instantly impressed. fresh green spinich, beautiful red tomatoes, and a mouth watering crepe with egg and cheese. I poured their signature sauce all over and forked away.... Once I was finished I immediately told all my coworkers to check this place out. I WILL DEFINITELY BE GOING BACK AND GOAL TO TRY EVERYTHING ON THEIR MENU!!

Nice little cafe that exclusively serves crepes. Loved the Breakfast crepe and nutella crepe. The nutella was homemade and not the jarred stuff. Will definitely make this another place to stop by when I'm in Tucson. The counter staff was warm and friendly and there wasn't a very long wait time. Definitely a hidden gem in the City of Tucson

It's a cozy restaurant with parking off Oracle (close to Grant). You can get savory or sweet crepes here! I had the stuffed Frenchie & my daughter had the pear, Brie, and honey crepe with a Nutella mocha & a dirty chai. They were all so good! The service was friendly. We also played games while we were waiting. It's definitely worth a try!!

Went here last week for breakfast and read all the great reviews so I decided to try this place out. The outside makes you think twice about going in but it's worth it. Very easy to find. The inside is very clean but dated. You have to walk up to order and the menu is on the wall to your left. They have great varieties. You can get sweet or savory. Customer service was good. I had a full Nutella, banana, and strawberry crepe. It was a good size. I would definitely recommend everyone to come here if you are in a mood for a crepe.

Not what you would expect seeing it from the outside. Pleasantly surprised at how cute it is inside. Not your typical French restaurant. It's cozy and the staff is friendly. Great Crepe menu. You order and pay at the register and they bring you your food. Since it's so small it can get pretty loud. They serve Numi tea and for your first visit after you check in you get a free cup with your entree. I'm told that they are known for their special sauce. The owner, Sonia is a sweetheart and the Crepes are fabulous. I had the Lingonberry chicken. Next time it will be Salmon. They also have a variety of sweet Crepes. A "must" place to check out

A very delicious cafe! The atmosphere is very chillaxed, and the crepes are delicious! I could really sense the passion and care put into a simple plate plate of food. Cant wait to return and try the rest of the menu!!!

Stopped in for a Saturday morning date with the hubby and was not disappointed! The crepes are really lovely and the service is quick. Get one savory and one sweet. You'll love it!

Love it here. Good service & amazing food. Highly recommend.

quiet, great food especially the sauce. A real gem in a location that is easy to get to and one would not expect good food. Menu is varied. I had a chicken pesto crepe, really good tasting and just the right amount of everything except sauce, which was so good I needed more. Where can you find a clean place, that is quiet w/ good food---here.
