    Strawberries & Chocolate
    Claudia L.

    Authentic Parisian croissants & crepes (and more!) - is there a better way to start your day in Rehoboth? No. I love stopping by here when I'm in town and the rumors are accurate - they sell out of croissants daily! Service is friendly and if there's a line, it's well worth the wait.

    Little cafe in the Penny Lane alley. Always has a line but it moves fast for freshly prepared, made in front of you yummie crepes and croissant sandwiches. Cute outdoor tables to eat at and easy, chill beach vibe. Crepes are light and delicious. We got the smoked salmon, sour cream and chive which was so light and delicious. Finished off with a massive sweet Nutella, strawberry and whipped cream. This will satisfy any sweet tooth. Croissants are buttery and light and can be filled with your option. We got the chicken salad. Cute, easy place to get a snack or breakfast before going to the beach.

    Ham & Cheese Croissant

    Fresh made French pastries, yes please! Croissants, eclairs, brioche and baguettes...oh my! On a visit to rehoboth beach, this is must. Located within the Penny Lane Mall, Papillon has many flavors of croissants to choose from. On this trip I had the ham and cheese. I was feeling very savory. Buttery, flaky, cheesy and savory. This hit every flavor note I was craving. They were so good we waited another 13 minutes for another batch to be done. You can't go wrong with any flavor. In addition to baked pastries, they do offer a few sandwiches. All made in their fresh bread. They also have juices and coffee. The frozen coffee mocha, was a delight! Pay them a visit on your next visit to the beach!

    Cute little sandwich shop on a walking alley shopping street called Penny Lane. Service is walk-up to a deli-style counter where you can get gourmet coffees, teas, sandwiches and treats. Wife, daughters and I were looking for a quick bite to fuel up, so we shared a couple of overflowing croissant sandwiches. There monsters were piled high with homemade, chunk chicken salad and each came with a side of sliced veggies topped with a drizzle of dressing. Two sammies were enough for the four of us to share, then it was on to more shopping!

    drinks and croissant menu

    great crepes, especially the peaches and cream. chai was too sweet for me but still good. cute location and croissants were also good! there were long lines but the food didn't take too long once we ordered

    Strawberries, Chocolate & Cream

    The penny lane crepes are delicious, authentic and nostalgic for me and my cousins! They are fluffy, not soggy, and the just perfect amount of sweet! The chocolate sauce tastes better than the store made kind, and the strawberries are fresh and delicious! Service can be a little slow since they only have 2 workers making crepes at a time, but if you are alright with waiting it's worth it in my opinion! Seating is also provided and it's pretty nice, with some shade provided and located in the cute little alley way!

    this place is amazing! great coffee and even better croissants. highly recommend this place and the almond croissant

    Grand Marnier
    Jocelyn O.

    Delicious little place of treat off the beach. The wait line could get long but it's worth it. Patience is key. The Grand Marnier is simple but perfect. Paired with Ham, Cheese and Tomato makes it a tasty treat to share. Savory and Sweet ...with coffee. What more could you ask? Whip cream on the side. Lol.

    Sweet Cheese Croissant
    Emily W.

    We got a sweet cheese croissant and an eclair. My fiancé got a smoked salmon sandwich and an iced latte. YUM! We thoroughly enjoyed everything that we got. Definitely will be back tomorrow morning! Great service. Cute little sitting area outside. Loved it.

    Long line before open time (8am)
    Lauren T.

    A-not-so-hidden gem anymore, Cafe Papillon always has a long line for good reasons. They open at 8am but if you're up, do yourself a favor and get there around 7:30-7:40. The croissants sell out fast and when they're gone, they're gone. Keep in mind there are two separate lines, one for the crepes and one for the croissants/coffee/some other baked goods. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. This authentic slice of France in rehoboth is worth getting up early for!

    Such a cute hidden gem that serves great crepes (although they're a bit pricey, but they're good!), and the workers were nice.

    My husband and I always take a day trip to Rehoboth from OC MD every year to do shopping. We…read moreusually like to get dinner too but then we skip lunch and I'm usually starving by then. I decided I wanted to do a brunch type of place instead and randomly found this place. This place was definitely me. The duck around and find out drink with the little rubber duck in it, I had to get cause I love ducks. And it changed colors! We have the indigo gin at home that changes color when you add citrus to it, but I never really have took the time to just sit and watch it change completely, it was cool. The espresso martini, I think was one of the best espresso martinis I ever had! I like the option you get to pick if you want tequila, rum, or vodka with it. I normally don't like vodka that much but I'll tolerate it in an espresso martini because it covers up the vodka taste. But I liked the different options, and the tequila went well with it. I think tequila espresso martinis are becoming popular now, I've seen them more now. The other drinks they had were great as well! We got a strawberry cream martini which was delicious. I think we got some kind of cheesecake key lime martini with cheesecake on the rim, which was great too. Love the over the top drinks since I'm over the top too. We drank more than we were planning but oh well can't help it they were so good. For food I got the lobster Benedict which was amazing, prob one of the best Benedict's I've had too. The hollandaise sauce was great, it was flavorful , creamy, the right thickness , not too runny. So many places can mess that up. And the lobster was fresh and I think there was a decent amount. My husband's chicken and waffles were delicious as well. The servers/bartenders were also very friendly and helpful. We at the bar , it's kind of a small restaurant. But it was nice cause we got to talk to the bartender and she told me the best drinks to order and some have won awards. I love the decor also and the name - Somewhere I think that was kind of quirky and cool. I wanna go back , now I'm getting hungry as I'm typing this. This might just be our new go to place after/ in between shopping in Rehoboth!

    Great place to stop by. Local service and has an indoor old school bar and patio seating. Very…read morereasonable prices. 1. Chicken sandwich - lean breast with perfectly crisp skin outside that was not too thick of a fried shell. Came with pickles and hot honey. 2. Smash burger - good size as well. Not as good as other smash burgers I've had but got the job done. Overall a solid place to stop by! Next time, I'm going for tacos!
