Such an amazing place, a true gem of Chicago!! Must haves include the French Onion Soup , the Chicken , Tomato and Goat Cheese Crêpe , the Bouf Borginion Crêpe , and the Banana and Nutella crêpe
chicken mushroom is a little thicker now and has a nice mustardy kick. really Good. ask them to bring back the Coq au vin . dessert MUST have Suzette a la Germain (with Grand Marnier ).
If you're lucky (around 7-9pm) you might catch live music + vocals from a trio of French (maybe Italian?) musicians . Also, you've had Nutella Crepes . Try the savory ones and don't skip the Ice Cream !
Absolutely delicious crepes . They are also huge, the size of a dinner plate! I enjoyed the sweet crepes but was surprised by how much I loved the savory options as well . The chicken goat cheese rocks!
Go on a Tuesday when the French onion soup is especially amazing. (They always make it the night before, but they're closed on Mondays so the soup on Tuesday has had a vital, extra day to rest.)
La Crêperie has been a long-standing favorite in Lakeview and for good reason, but when it comes to the brunch menu , it’s a far cry from what we desired. Read more
Crepes are so good here but it’s the best French onion soup you can find, especially if you like it loaded with cheese !
If savory is your choice, try the Poulet au curry with the mango chutney . Great crepe with a Indian twist!
Half price bottles of wine on Tuesday nights. Free chocolate crepe with same-day movie ticket stub from Landmark Theater across the street.
Crepes are delicious. Try BananaSara, their speciality. Nutella crepe was decent as well .
This jewel of a bistro has been around since the early 70s. Owned by a Northern Frenchman, the food and atmosphere will remind you of visitin Paris.www.lacreperieusa.com
Asperge et champignons avec sauce mornay (Asparagus & mushrooms in a mornay sauce) and Banana Sara (Bananas in a brown sugar caramel sauce topped with rum & vanilla ice cream ). Freaken AMAZING!!!
Very romantic brunch location, beautiful and green back outside area. Crepes were a little dark for my taste.
Every time I'm here I feel like I'm in an independent film . Recommended: Croque Madame or crepe complete. So good.
A bit off the brunch beaten path, but worth it.
For a romantic dinner ask for the table in front of the fireplace savory chicken and mushroom crepe are delicious
The curry crepe and mushroom crepe were awesome! Try to French beer and wine too!
Everything!!! We have tried many different entrees here and they have all been excellent!
Chris, one of the servers, is outrageously friendly . And the Crème Caramel he suggested was delicious, though that wasn't surprising at all.
Try the Curry Chicken Crepe - Poulet au curry : Great flavors, mango chutney was a great addition. Sorry, will take a photo next time.
Service here can be hit or miss, but the food is great. For brunch , try the crepe Florentine, my absolute favourite!
Great outdoor area in back. Great service. Steak is amazing. Sweet crepes are delightful.
very cute place and excellent crepes
Excellent crepes ! Amazing staff ! Love it!
So much variety with the crepes , excellent choices
Great coffee , salted caramel latte is the best
Tell your friends you were a part of history (just by filling your belly!) - La Creperie is the oldest creperie in the USA.
The curry cream sauce in the "Poulet au Curry " is unbelievably decadent. I cannot recommend it enough.
Nutella Crepe is fantastic. Get it with ice cream .
Split pea soup and vegetarian crepe with goat cheese
Get here as much as you can before August 22! It's the end of an era!
Cozy creperie . A chicago classic.
You must try the savory crepe (chicken and goat cheese ). So good.
A sour waiter in the front room cast a pall on the experience.
For brunch , order the Crepe Florentine, egg and spinach ; comes with egg , bacon , and potatoes !
The crepes with caramel and salted butter . :-)
Don't let the outside fool you! This place is the best!
Caramel crepe with cocktail chip ice cream
The dessert crepes are way better. Try nutella , banana and strawberry . Yum!
This charming monument to savory and sweet crêpes has been going strong since 1972. - Inspector
Exxxxcellent and have been there often. Toi bad & sad It was the last night tonight!
Friendly service and the food is delicious.
Back patio is great for brunch in the summer
Banana sara is average at best. And though it is a French-inspired restaurant , I was surprised by the waiter who was essentially a French-inspired dick. This is a picture of him.
The nutella crêpe is fantastic, loved it!
Best creeps in the northwest. Came from toledo ohio
Ask for the chestnut purée with a crème anglaise crepe . If they have the purée you'll be glad you asked!
Best crepes in Chicago, hands down. The french onion soup is also to die for.
Love, love, love their chicken curry crepe
First time here, heard it's great
Awesome Value. Tuesdays they offer Duck L'Orange which is to die for. Their Fish & Frites is light & tasty and their Steak & Frites options are amazing. High quality meat :) - Karin Kovitvongsa
Good (and bottomless) mimosas and really tasty salads will probably be what brings me back here. My dining companions really enjoyed their brunch steaks as well. - Dana Jensen
getting a little rundown, but still the best art cinema in town. - Kirstjen Lorenz
Nice & friendly staff, great music...100% recommended! - Patrick Scherschinski
