Restaurant Cafe Coffee shop Brunch restaurant Creperie

🫤 Sweet crepe was served chilled with very little filling. Savory crepe lack gourmet taste. Expensive for what we got. Iced tea was brewed two days prior, however they rectified and brewed me a fresh cup. Service is on paper plates and plastic ware. Nothing special.

    We ordered a cheese omelet and a vegetarian crepe with fruit cups as side. I thought the omelet was well seasoned and fluffy, but the crepes (both main and side) were on the tougher side it felt (see below regarding knifes). The fruits tasted fresh. The matcha latte was creamy and delicious. The ambiance is nice with friendly staff, but the fact that all orders, including dine in, are in take out boxes (as of late January 2022) make the whole experience feel a bit cheap and wasteful in terms of trash considering the prices we're paying. Going back to the crepes, it was quite hard to cut them with the plastic knifes, and maybe it'll feel different with some proper cutlery.

    Delicious crepes and lattes. The staff is friendly and professional and the area is clean and cozy. This side of town is quiet and parking is easy. I ordered to go and they were quick with my order. I will be back for more crepes!

    Yummy food so and cute environment. The staff were really friendly; I got the strawberry cheesecake crepes and an iced chai tea latte. Delicious!

    The crepes here are flawless. I had the Burrow omelet and it was so good - fluffy, crispy and stretchy cheese, and perfectly salty. I also loved that the fruit cup didn’t have melon in it, but that’s personal preference for sure. Everyone was friendly and helpful. They have Red Rock Roasters coffee, which is local and my absolute favorite. We will definitely come again when we’re on this side of town.

    As of 2022, the only place in ABQ to get quality crepes. *Watch out over the weekends, SUPER busy because of limited time sweet-flavors (co-owner told me so).* The book wall is my favorite feature of the cafe. I believe every order is made fresh, so don't go in for a rush order or get impatient. The staff does work really hard, bussing your own table helps a long way and gives the future customer a pleasant experience like I had.

    Wonderful and filling crepes. Fast casual experience where you order at the front and find your own open seating afterwards.

    $74 for one nutella crepe, two 16 oz beverages, lox & bagel, and a savory crepe. No seating indoors, only outside in the cold wind where our food almost blew off the table. Their bagels and croissants are from Costco (the costco containers were clearly visable for all to see)… the chai tastes like Costco’s powdered chai… for the price paid, it was not worth it. The food was ok, but not $74 good.

    They have improved since my previous visit. They now have real silverware and plates instead of the paper and plastic they were using around covid. Very convenient location; probably the best place to get a good brunch if you live anywhere on Tramway. Crepes are always the best option here.

    Stopped in for some brunch and enjoyed a crepe and a bagel. I do have two complaints so read through the end. First up, we had the NM Ham Melt. This was a homemade crepe filled with thin sliced ham, diced green chile and cheddar. The Chile was hot and flavorful! Next up, I had the Burrow Bagel. This bagel was just exploding with flavor and really well done. It had pesto cream cheese, shredded spinach, sliced tomatoes, cracked pepper, salt and olive oil drizzle. The coffee was good and the other items on the menu sounded great as well. It did take awhile to get our food so I don’t recommend if you’re in a hurry. But if you’re just having a relaxing morning or maybe on a date, this is a great spot for breakfast or brunch. Also, my side of fruit that I ordered with my bagel was $5 and literally about 2 teaspoons of (possibly canned) pineapple pieces and 2 small half orange slices. You can see it for yourself on the photo with the bagel. It’s the small plastic container on top of my plate, next to the spoon. This was pretty upsetting but the rest of the food and coffee was good so it didn’t damper the experience. I did feel a bit ripped off though.

    First of the potato's are AMAZING!!!! The food is very good, the prices for certain things is ridiculous. Four dollars for 3 turkey sausage links cut in half is not worth it but the rest of the food is great. The servers themselves were friendly and great but the ordering layout needs help and crowds up by the register. The atmosphere is laid back and good but the table fell like patio furniture, not my prefer style. Overall would recommend to anyone for a good breakfast and great crepes.

    I love the caramel macchiato, theyre lavender strup is my favorite. Never enjoyed brunch food as much as till I tried their stuff! Cute, quaint place—study there sometimes.

    I love The Burrow! The coffee is good, great service, and the crepes are tasty. The salmon and chicken pesto are my favourites and I love that they serve fresh fruit sides.

    This place gets a 10 out of 10. I was here about a week ago with my main squeeze. We both ordered crepes. I had a blackberry hazelnut latte that was to die for. Y'all I swear these are fae folk. Crepes that were actual crepes and coffee that tasted magical. The atmosphere was bright and cozy there is a fascinating art installation of old books and other reading materials in several genres and languages. This place is magical and I would urge anyone to visit.

    This place deserves 6 stars! Amazing staff, amazing coffee, amazing crepes. They deserve all the business.

    Nice cafe with a beautiful view. Service was pretty relaxed, both food and drinks took a bit to come out. Coffee was well done but a little too sweet. Crêpe Madame was served looking pretty but the taste was unbalanced for me: the cheese was too sharp and brought down the rest of the flavours. A little too much ham which turns to be chewy when grilled/fried. Cannot really feel the crêpe or egg. Liked the parsley for a fresh touch. Quinoa is also a cool find I think. Still finished my plate. Would love to see the same ingredients but in a better proportion. Overall, overpriced for a mediocre food and service.

    It is one of the few local cafes around Tramway that you grab a coffee or have a nice brunch. We were there for a brunch during the week day and it was crowded. Ambiance is so beautiful but I found out that the stuffed boxes just front of kitchen that doesn’t look nice! We had Bruschetta Crepe and Croissant Eggwich. Crepe was delicious but Croissant wasn’t that much greasy and crispy. We had two coffees too but we didn’t like either of them, one was Vietnamese Iced coffee that was too sweet and cold Drip Roast that wasn’t something special! In general if I just want coffee I will try somewhere else but for a brunch that I don’t want to drive 20-30min it’s a decent place to go. I give them 3.5 ⭐️ for now and will try them again. In general i

    Ordered veggie omelette & it was great! Crepe too heavy to be a true French-type but my friend loved her crepe sandwich for which the weight of the crepe worked well. We both agreed to meet there regularly as the food & the service were terrific. Also very convenient location as I come from East Mountains & she lives in town. 4 stars because I was hoping for lighter weight crepe but yummy food overall! Paper plates for now but they said dishes coming soon. Still, casual dining & we were fine with plastic ware etc.

    This is quaint little spot, so much sunshine and windows. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The coffee was a brown sugar latte and a veggie omelette added avocado.. great spot for meeting up with your pals 😀 love the energy
