Delicious food, it was great to buy a crepe with lemon and sugar for $10. There was tap water as well. The staff were lovely and the atmosphere was very French.

The matcha was tasty but kinda too sweet. You could also taste extra spice in it

Went there for brunch. We had Le complete and the salmon with avo. Both were good and tasty. Would recommend if you’re looking for french crepes in the area. Also the staff was so nice, I wanted to buy the madeleine but he gave it to me for free

Very nice, albeit quite small crêperie serving very delicious authentic crepes. My review will need to be updated and should be read with the fact I had visited just 30 minutes before closing and were not eaten for another 15 minutes for the drive home. Upon entering I was warmly greeted by the French staff, handed a menu and placed an order for 2 takeaway crepes that were similar but slightly different, the total coming to just over $40, which was definitely on the pricey side considering what follows in the review. Both crepes had chocolate drizzle, strawberries (which I was told a few minutes after ordering that they had ran out of Strawberries and offered Raspberries as a substitute), vanilla ice cream and toasted almonds. One of them was supposed to have banana as well, but I’m not sure if they also ran out or just forgot to add them? Or perhaps it was just some sort of banana flavouring, whichever the case there was no taste of bananas. Even despite the few and very minor ingredient problems, they were very tasty! So we will definitely be going back to try some different options and eat-in next time at midday. This review will be updated once I’ve returned, but I still highly recommend this crêperie!

Super nice staff!! I came by their store when it was almost closing and out of kindness they were still able to make a crepe for me, which btw it’s the most delicious crepe I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!!

I ordered strawberry-banana chocolate crepe and it was very soft and delicious, good with a cup of warm coffee. It was, to be honest, not enough I wished I order more and more! The restaurant was decorated nicely with welcoming vibe, good for photos. The staff was nice as well. It was such a nice place to visit in Fitzroy!

Loved this place! Beautiful ambience and attentive staff. Last minute visit on the way back from the CBD for afternoon tea. Found this cosy little gem on Google maps. We ordered the Madeleine crepe together with the Paris Moulin Rouge. The Madeleine was simple but oh so lovely! I would definitely order that again. The Paris Moulin Rouge was a treat and surprisingly not too sweet. The crepes were substantial and not paper thin like some I’ve had elsewhere. We ordered a cappuccino and flat white. Coffee was exceptional! Beautifully made crepes and exceptional coffee with French music playing in the background… what more could we want?
