Excellent crêpes.
I had the Bella which is Nutella + fresh strawberries. They serve savory crêpes too. Coffee, not so much. It was a bit crowded, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. So I would come whenever it gets less busy. Outside seating is nice and gives a Parisienne feel. I would come again for sure.
Had a very nice lunch. I will definitely come back. I had the lox, egg and tomato for brunch. My son got French toast. His girlfriend got the Shakshouka. Also, the latte was very good.
Came back another time and had brunch. The menu is very limited and I think quite expensive.
Service is overly attentive.
It was just ok. Nobody in the table LOVED what they had, but also no complaints.
We got the sweet berry crepes and a coffee, it was delicious!
I take responsibility for ordering my child a buckwheat crepe, which was not tasty. I do not take responsibility for the tomato soup with an egg that was served for my $30+ shakshouka in a cool shallow bowl, accompanied a few minutes later by a baguette piece. Surely my shakshouka was missing some components?
Will not come back! We ordered savory crepes and food was good. However, the service made the experience very disappointing. There were a few patrons outside but barely anyone inside. 4 staffs that didn’t look very busy but still managed to ignore us most of the time. The female server forgot to bring me my drink and brought it several minutes after my meal started. We were planning on having dessert but the 4 staffs were so engrossed into talking among each other, and looking at their phone that we got frustrated and decided to ask for the check. The experience lacked warmth and care, very unprofessional.
Very cute place with a nice patio. Breakfast was delicious! We went on a Sunday, and it seemed like they were a bit short-staffed—service was a little slow. But overall, the food was great and we left happy
I LOVE FONTAINE’S. I wish they would tell us about the midday closing between 3:00 PM and 5:30 PM on the website!
Charming little spot with a cozy, European-inspired vibe. Their crepes are absolutely delicious—both savory and sweet options hit the mark. Great coffee, warm ambiance, and friendly service make it a lovely place for a relaxing brunch or casual meet-up. Definitely one of those hidden gems worth revisiting.

Food was excellent, service was excellent, espresso martini excellent, BUT...the Fresh Bloody Mary, was the best I've ever had!
I sat outside and enjoyed delicious pan fried scallops with a lovely salad. This place is so cute and the food is so fresh and tasty. I highly recommend it!!
Lovely restaurant, the French Bistro Burger is easily one of the best in Old Town and you can't go wrong with any of the crepe options!
Delicious crêpes, could be cooked 30s-1minute more
Not the best crepes we’ve had. And considering the prices, I’d say worth trying once but wont be returning
