Delicious crepes! Cute sidewalk seating and right across from the Whitaker Center! Great lunch spot if you're in Harrisburg.

Very homey little cafe, run by a nice Moroccan family. Crepes were really good and it had good options to pick from. It's a pretty low-key operation, probably not ideal for a fancy brunch but great for a quick bite

The crepes and staff were absolutely amazing! What a wonderful dog friendly restaurant! They gave us extra strawberries for our dog and also brought her water.

Had some time to kill on a cold afternoon, so my husband and I came here for a hot drink and sweet treat. We had a lovely time with DELICIOUS crepes, coffee, and hot chocolate. Would definitely come weekly if we lived in the area!

Super tiny hole in the wall, fantastic owner and his wife. Their delightful little child handed us menus, and they explained our options well. Delightful meal, great portion size. We had two of the savory style crepes, and they were very delicious!

This was the perfect breakfast & place to relax before a long day ahead. It's a cute, real French cafe in walking distance of the train station. My fiance & I only wanted coffee, but the crepe's were too tempting. We tried the egg & tomato crepe's & sat inside by the window. Very delicious & authentic!! The owner & his wife are so friendly, social & great cook. If you go to Harrisburg, PA, definitely get breakfast here!!

Their crepes are always amazing and it's one of our favorite places to eat in the city. The owner is super nice! (If you've never been before you walk up to the counter to order when you're ready, it's not exactly full table service) We will definitely be back soon!

This is where I had my first date 7 years ago with my now fiancé. We sat in the quaint restaurant and chose from endless options of crepes as we drew with chalk on the table. Once served, the owner dimmed the lights, put on romantic music, and left! We return for anniversaries and just recently our engagement shoot. The crepes are absolutely delicious and the coffee (I’m a black coffee drinker) is amazing. The service provided takes it from 5 stars to 6. I absolutely love this place!
