    Friendly staff and quick service. Food tasted amazing. I had a strawberry crepe with vanilla ice cream, the flavours blended very nicely together, and the honeycomb milkshake tasted nice and light . I'd definitely return to have the eggs benedict. Slightly overpriced but for the views and the service, it's definitely worth it.

    This is the first time I have given constructive criticism in in regards to an eatery/cafe. And been quite disappointed My previous food reviews have always been positive and upbeat. The food was ordinary and unappealing visually on the plate. And four out of the five of the people at our table agreed with this. And only one person out of five enjoyed their meal . Four people had toasted sandwiches. The bread was quite stale and dry. The cheese and ham was very sparse and there was no butter on any of them. And they were nearly cold. And the manager quite frankly gave off a negative vibe and looks that Said I'm definitely not happy today. And she definitely did not create a happy atmosphere for customers and staff. Especially to approach her.

    It was averagely OK cafe to go with average food and coffee, slightly burnt taste but wasn't that strong). It's accessible to Eastern beach, which makes this cafe have 4 stars with good view, easy walking distance to beach.

    First round I ordered crepes and I found hair in my food. They didn't seem to care, as if I told them I didn't like my crepes. I went in after a few weeks just to grab a coffee. I ordered a double shot late, they charged me a good $6.30 for a small single shot latte. I'm done.

    I realise that they may specialise in crepes, however I just wanted a toasted ham and cheese sandwich. The toast was barely toasted and the ham and cheese was very sparse. There was only 1 very thinly sliced slice of ham and hardly any cheese. When I raised this with one of the girls she insisted that they always put 2 slices of ham. I opened my sandwich and there was only one. Not to be a winger but I suggest you avoid this place if you want toasted sanga.

    What was once a great establishment is no longer. Has always been a favorite to come to when in geelong but how things have changed. Was greeted by a waitress that didn't know what was in the crepes. When we finally got our order it was incorrect. Instead of apologizing the waitress grabbed the plates and stormed off. Then brought the food back and said no she was right it's correct. Ended up just asking for our money back. Won't be coming back

    Extremely poor quality and overpriced food. There is nothing remotely authentic about the supposedly French food served here. Sweet sugary crêpes were used in the savoury dishes, salads were garnished in heinous amounts of cheap dressing, and the service was abysmal.

    Great little cafe with a nice view of the beach from the outdoor seating area. Staff were friendly and everything came out very quickly. Coffee and cakes were delicious especially the dates pudding

    Just walked by after a long day came in for an iced coffe, I honestly didn't expect much but it was fantastic. The carrot cake, sticky date were the best I've had in VIC and the cheesecake was hella good. Just wow glad I stopped by

    What can I say…..Delicious, delicious, delicious. Always tasty food and great coffee. Always busy with a buzzing vibe. Indoor and outdoor dining. View the beach while you eat.

    The holy grail of Crepes 🙌🏻 I had the Chicken Kiev crepe and it was cooked to perfection. The husband and wife team were so inviting and friendly. We will definitely make more trips just to visit this comfortable and friendly place. We had a table for 6 and everyone was complimenting the food and their yummy Hot Chocolates. The coffee was perfect also. We ordered a lot and honestly the pricing was really good.

    If your looking for a beautiful spot while looking over the water then look no further. We have made this our monthly spot to catch up! Their crepes especially have taken us by storm and never left feeling hungry or disappointed.

    My daughter and I had the lemon and banana crepes. Delicious and cooked perfectly. Have had crepes from other restaurants they are usually have a bad after taste of flour that is not properly cooked. Not at this place, and the filling was delicious and not too sweet. The coffee is awesome too. Would highly recommend this restaurant for breakfast or dessert, yum

    I love coming here. Salted caramel crepe is to die for. Coffee is good too. I have noticed though that staff don’t seem use gloves when handling the raw food and in preparation. I would prefer it if they did.

    bought a cheese, tomato and avocado croissant this morning for breakfast with a coffee and went to work and left early with food poisoning. i’ve had stomach pain and cramping for hours and nausea, perhaps they need to check their hygiene practices

    Don’t order the seafood crepe. The menu says salmon and prawns in a sauce with cheese. I had to try and find the seafood which resulted in 3 small shrimp (no prawns) and barely found half a teaspoon of salmon. Very heavy on the sauce and cheese. When I mentioned it to the wait staff they said they would speak to the manager but never saw the manager and they kept away from my table. The crepe sounds really nice on the menu but it was extremely disappointing. Never goin back

    Genuinely amazing food. Good presentation and even better taste. Well worth your time and money.

    Ordered Chicken supreme and one with mushrooms - didn’t finish, as they weren’t good (chicken was quite old and mushroom sauce didn’t taste good). The sweet one with strawberries was okay

    Good place for an evening coffee. One of the coffee shops with a friendly staff that opens till 8pm in weekend.

  • 4/5 michael p. 1 year ago on Google
    The serving size I got with my cake, and my wife got with her crepes was massive. The service was quick, and the only downside, was the range of cakes was a bit thin - possibly because it was late Sunday. Really worth 4.5 stars.

    My wife told me what happened today and I’m absolutely furious and disappointed about the customer service here. Three young girls today around 1:30 showed no care or responsibility for their actions. Firstly a girl placed THREE takeaway coffee cups on my wife’s hands and expected her to hold it, and one dropped and spilt (it’s common sense to provide a tray!!) Secondly, coffee went all over her shirt and no one offered her a sourviet. Thirdly, no one said sorry, no apology at all. They just proceeded to clean the coffee cup and hand it back! Not even a new coffee. When my wife was leaving she heard them giggling. This is bottom of the barrel customer service that we’ve never experienced in Melbourne. My suggestion is get rid of those girls!
