    Ham & Cheese Crepe
    Sue F.

    Their fresh squeezed OJ is so good and refreshing! Perfect for this warm sunny weather. They also have matcha lattes, Thai iced tea, and other drinks. I love their crepes and the wonderful family who own and staff this restaurant. Ingredients are always fresh and they work quickly.

    Tried a bunch of items and enjoyed everything! Mushroom toastie was lovely, deluxe veggie and mango mania crepes were great along with cappuccino, but my favorite was spicy tofu crepe- amazing flavor! Good find in east bay fro brunch.

    We ordered a coffee and the mango crepe. And it was so delicious. My kid loved it. The coffee was really good. It's a nice family owned restaurant with nice outdoor sit out. A must try place if you're looking for brunch options.

    The best crepes in Danville, worthy of a trip all the way from Castro Valley. Brown Butter has been in our bi-weekly weekend brunch for quite a few months to the point that Apple already knows our order before we walk in, service is so friendly and warm, worth it on its own, let alone the fantastic crepes and toasts. My favorite drink they serve is a lychee iced tea.

    Mango crape
    Sani S.

    First time here, and the outdoor area is so pretty. As soon as we walked in, it felt warm, welcoming, and cozy, the interior is really nice. Customer service is top-notch. Everyone greeted us with a smile, and even another employee who walked by made sure to say hello. We ordered a hot mocha, and it was delicious, I loved it! We'll definitely be back to grab a bite. We finally dined in and customer service was amazing, the presentation of the items we ordered looked so pretty, we tried mango crape OOOMMMGGG DELICIOUS it was filled with mangoes worth every penny then the mocha looked so so so pretty!

    Menu is unique, crepes are full of flavor! We ordered a few crepes to share: - Mushroom, cheese and spinach was really my favorite. Sounds so simple but the house sauce they use really brought everything together! I would HIGHLY recommend this whether you're vegetarian or not, this is a must try. - chicken pesto: this one was really good as well! Always love a good chicken and pesto combo. Flavors definitely were not lacking. - Thai: this was probably my least favorite, only because it was more on the sweet side (probably from the shredded pork) than it was spicy and savory, which was what I was hoping for. I still think the flavor was unique and good, it just wasn't my favorite "savory" crepe here. - Mango ice cream: this was pretty good, I honestly didn't care for all the whipped cream it was packed with. It's definitely refreshing. - Ube fried crepe: this lacked the Ube flavor so wasn't really what I was expecting but not bad. It also came with cilantro and while it wasn't bad with the Ube, I just didn't really think it was GREAT combo. Overall, everything is good, I just think it depends on your expectations and experience with flavor.... For example, if you're a huge Ube person, I'm not 100% sure you'd love the Ube dessert, if you're expecting savory and a bit of spicy, I'm not sure you'd want to do the Thai. Service was wonderful, they check in your often and are very friendly!

    Brown Butter Café was such a pleasant surprise. I went for brunch with my friend and we got the mango mania and the shibuya toast. The honey toast was everything. I literally love honey toast and it's so hard to find unless you're in SF/Berkeley, so this really made my day. It was so good and I genuinely enjoyed every bite. I feel like I've walked past this spot so many times whenever I'm in Blackhawk Plaza, but I'm so glad I finally tried it. It's such a low key, cute spot. The inside is super aesthetic and cozy, and the owners were incredibly kind. I'm not sure if it's a husband and wife duo or family run, but they were so sweet and kept checking in on us, which made the experience even nicer. I'll definitely be back and I'm so happy I finally stopped in

    Spinach, Mushroom & Cheese... not a lot of filling as you can see.
    Carmen L.

    Came here with a friend after a hike. This place is small but cute. We ordered the spinach mushrooms cheese crepes and I also had a match latte. I really enjoyed the crepes but would be good if there were more filling. The matcha latte was really good... bitter and sweet at the same time. Service was good but they forgot our drinks and it took quite a while for the food to be served. Will be back.

    Strawberry and banana crepe

    Awesome food and service every time I come here. They have a great selection and the owner is super nice. The store ambiance is great as well

    First time here with friend, very cafe style with outdoor seating and made it very comfy. Ordered Thai Tea Float and Thai Style Street Food Prik Pao Moo Yong. Thai Tea Float: Taste just right, unlike Thai tea at boba shop that made too sweet, but not dry. Prik Pao Moo Yong: Never tried savory crepe, this one is a spicy dish and not over powering. Very flavorful. Wish they can give more salad on the side. Service: Excellent. Servers are very very friendly. Recommending this place for a light lunch.

    avocado toast
    Irena S.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon brunch after doing a head spa nearby, and it popped up on Yelp as a half mile away so my friend and I were like, why not? The pics looked so cute. My order was the strawberry matcha latte ($7.50) and the avocado toast ($17.95). We came around 1:30pm and it was not crowded at all, but I could see it being really popular during earlier brunch time. Pros: - really nice service ! they were really patient with us and the food came out pretty quickly - The matcha latte was DELICIOUS but it definitely is like an extra dessert when it comes to calories LOL it came with beautiful whipped cream - but I thoroughly really enjoyed it and I actually think it was worth the $7+ dollars. Impressively this was my favorite part of the meal and I could see myself coming back for this. - The avocado toast was really beautifully plated, really pretty presentation. I also loved the little spicy chili that came with it - Clean bathroom - Very plentiful parking - Really cute vibes! It's like a half outdoor cafe /breakfast place with indoor and outdoor open seating so you can choose if you want to be in the sun or the shade. I loved that there were elderly people just hanging out there all day. - I like that the menu isn't too overwhelming, a short two pages so it's easier to make decisions, and it's well organized so you can find what you want. Cons: - I think due to the price of the avocado toast I expected either thicker eggs, more avocado, or more side salad, but it still tasted really good, I just wasn't super full. I do really want to come again to get that matcha strawberry latte again though! it was really the perfect ratio and balance of bitter and sweet

    Thai crepe
    Hanna L.

    Cute and welcoming interior. The savory crepe with Thai street food theme menu was pretty delicious. It had seasoned shredded dried pork inside that paired well with the crispy crepe. All ingredients felt fresh. It was a bit on the sweeter side -- the majority of their menues are on the sweeter side, which I would be cautious about especially after a workout. Would like to try other menues

The lox croissandwich was good, however, I asked for tomato because I needed an added flavor profile and the saltiness of the lox made me want more hydration in the bite. I usually don't like capers but today they were fine. Croissant was toasted nicely. Service: excellent. A pretty woman greeted us quickly and because it was such a beautiful day, she was coming out to bring our meals and drinks back and forth. She brought us our drinks. My drink was supposed to be with almond milk but I suspected it may have been regular milk. Although I disclose that I rarely order black sesame; it was very very sweet so I ended up not taking a chance and drinking it. My husband and daughter had vanilla lattes and lemonade with their breakfast bacon sandwich and salad. My daughter wanted to go there again today. (Posting a day later). The ambiance was very nice. I had never been to this downtown area. We were across the street from a really cute historic gas station. Great seating for people watching and enjoying the warming heat of summer on the patio. Really lovely experience at Bocado.

I don't live super close so having to drive down there just to realize the store is closed is such a let down. Portions have also gotten smaller while prices increase. I understand inflation is a thing, but paying THAT much for a crepe that's about the size of my hand is not preferred. Currently on the look out for a new crepe shop. Hopefully this place gets it together because as mentioned, crepes here are great, but I no longer see myself supporting this business if these issues are ongoing.

I get the feeling the servers are a couple, and they were both incredibly attentive and welcoming throughout the meal. The khao soi was flavorful and comforting, taste very much like authentic khao sou I've had from Thailand. It came with 2 very tender drum sticks. The spicy eggplant rice plate was tasty, though a little on the oily side. I really liked that it came in a separate dish from the rice--such a small detail, but it was well thought out and kept the rice from getting soggy. The mango sticky rice crepe was just okay for me. The crepe was a bit thick, and the sticky rice was somewhat mushy. Overall, I think I prefer classic mango sticky rice on its own rather than wrapped in a crepe. Wonder how other crepes would taste like... Overall, a cozy spot with attentive service, good prices, and some solid dishes. Small restaurant probably not ideal for large groups. I'd happily come back to try more of the menu!
