Crepes are divine. And the pastries will have you drooling. Come and eat in, it’s such a vibe.

The Nutella crepe is so yum! We added strawberries and banana to it - even better. The croissants are so fresh and delicious. Can’t wait to try more next time.

The food was absolutely delicious. Crepe was perfect. Croque Monsieur had the right amount of cheese and was gooey but the bread held together. The raspberry champagne cocktail was delicious. Rose latte flavor was a wonderful balance. The outside seating wraps around the side with table, chairs, and umbrellas.

This lovely place in purceville has quite the welcoming atmosphere with the uniquely designed building, and not to mention the Fresh Crepes! Fresh pastries! Fresh quiches! And not to mention.. coffee! Highly recommend coming to this place if you’re in the mood for a quick bite, quick coffee, or even a full meal!

40$ for an overpriced breakfast.

We are French, so we know what a crepe should taste like. And guess what? the crepes were fine… except for the toppings! I mean a Nutella crepe should be a crepe with a bit of Nutella on top, not a BUNCH of Nutella with a bit of crepe underneath. Same for the French toast one.
I think I got diabetes after this breakfast.
Way. Too. Much. Sugar.
Like, it was unreal.
I couldn’t eat more than half of my plate.

Oh yeah and for 40$ you get PAPER PLATES.
I mean if you’re trying to do some Parisian chic impression at least get some proper plates.

Service was ok, but …here’s the deal: you have to order at the bar and pick your crepes and drinks yourself and then clean the tables yourself so…. basically the service is YOU doing it.

Will definitely not come back.

Cute atmosphere but very slow and weird service. Their system needs a lot of improvement. They use the same buzzer system for drinks and pastries as they do their meals that take longer to make so the service ends up being staggered and awkward. Warmed pastry took forever and wasn't warm. They have so many employees working here at a time but can't seem to get it together. When the food is actually served hot which is rare, it's good. But the food all seems to sit in the back in a bottleneck even when it's not busy.

Vinaigrette was quite good
Quiche was substandard: dense pastry; flavor-free filling -- they admitted this needs work, increasing 3 to 4 stars pending next visit
Ham was fine
Espresso good
"Iced mocha" was basically chocolate milk; ok but no discernable "mocha" character
Didn't try the crepes but they look, ummm, inelegant
Excellent service and atmosphere!

They got the French atmosphere vibes right, but the food was meh. The quiche was rubbery and bland. The French onion soup was bland as well, it lacked cheese because they put a bit of cheese on the baguette slices that were the croutons? The floor was crazy sticky...

We’ve visited Petit a few times and enjoyed it, vowing to return again. But today’s visit was our last, unless they improve. The place is, well, dirty. The floors and tables indoors need a good cleaning, and please either deeply clean the black and white striped couch or dispose of it. In its current deeply-stained state, it doesn’t belong in a restaurant. FYI: That couch has been in the same location and soiled condition since I first visited a year ago.

Now, about the outdoor seating…the tables are dirty, the ground is littered with dead leaves and trash (plastic cups, used sugar packets, napkins, etc), not to mention dead bushes in flower boxes that need repair. I used a paper napkin to wipe off a table before we sat down and it was black. I stopped a staff person and asked if they clean the outdoor sitting area because it needs it. Her reply was that it’s been windy and hard to keep up with it. Hmm…then why is the outdoor seating area at the adjacent bar/ restaurant clean and attractive. (I saw a staff person at that establishment wiping a table with cleaner after a party left.). The winery a couple doors down has a clean outdoor area, as well.

One expects at least a clean environment when a couple spends $45 for lunch. Oh, and the coffee in the help-yourself canister was lukewarm, but it was quickly replaced when we asked. So, that’s something.

Love the food and outdoor seating here, but unfortunately, on our last visit, the food took 40 minutes to come out for some reason.

My wife and I stopped by this nice little creperie for some breakfast. The coffee was absolutely great, I ordered a cappuccino and she got a mocha. The staff was very fun and friendly.

The decor and the vibe inside was perfect! I did not expect the floor to ceiling decor to be so in-theme from the outside of the bar. The furniture is comfy and there is of seating both indoor and outdoor.

I do wish our drinks were served in mugs instead of to-go cups, but I did get my cappuccino in a glass.

Unfortunately the crepe my wife got seemed a bit undercooked and a little too sweet for a savory crepe. She ordered the chicken cordon bleu, despite the unappealing crepe she said the proteins were delicious!

I got the prosciutto and brie sandwich and it was excellent! The bread they used was very nicely made with the perfect balance of crunch and softness. The side salad was a bit too sour in opinion.

Lastly, I got a butter croissant which was perfect!

I have been told great things about these crepes so I wouldn't mind returning for the coffee and maybe a sweet crepe next time!
