If you have an allergy stay away from this place. I went here with some friends cute cozy place. We ordered the Lemon Crepes delicious. I ordered the gluten-free ones she ordered the regular ones. They talked about cross contamination. (I understand stood the risk) they came out with both of them and served me the regular ones. I was so sick. Reached out on Facebook they never responded. All I wanted them to do was bring out allergy foods by themselves. Never again!
El servicio es excelente, muy amables y la comida magnífica
We were so looking forward to coming here. Very unfriendly. Obviously not interested in service. Totally ignored. Clearly do not care about service or communication. Very unfortunate.

Brown Butter Crêperie & Cafe is a beloved spot known for its exceptional food and charming atmosphere. Customers frequently praise the delicious crepes, including favorites like the picnic savory crepe, apple caramel seasonal crepe, and blueberry goat crepe, often highlighting the flavorful blackberry latte that complements their meals. The ambiance features soft jazz music, creating a relaxing environment perfect for enjoying a meal or a fun activity like a private crepe-making class, which received high marks for its engaging experience and friendly instructors.
However, some visitors have experienced inconsistencies with operating hours, as the website and signage often do not match, leading to frustration. The restaurant has been closed early multiple times, especially on holidays, without clear updates online.
In terms of food quality, while many praise the dishes, some reviews mention limitations such as the absence of buckwheat batter for savory galettes and lower-quality cheese, along with soggy, salty salads that feel overpriced for snacks. Service experiences vary; some staff are friendly and attentive, while others may seem inattentive or unfriendly, which can impact the overall experience. Despite these issues, the overall consensus remains positive, driven by the excellent food and inviting atmosphere.
