My friends really wanted to try Craffles so we stopped by on a Saturday afternoon - they don't take reservations so we had to wait to be seated. Luckily, it was just a 20min wait! Their restaurant is not too big so wouldn't recommend it for a big group. My friend and I both got their crispy chicken crepe - hers was tapioca (gluten free) and mine was traditional crepe. Both were soo good! The tapioca one had a different texture - it was a bit more chewy. Not a bad option if you are gluten free! We also got their nutellacino which was basically a nutella cappuccino! It was definitely as good as it tasted. Their menu was a lot different than the last time I came here (around 3 yrs ago) and I really liked all the new items they introduced. I would definitely consider this place again when I'm looking for a good brunch spot! Also their service was really fast! And they had a coat rack too :) read more

Absolutely unacceptable. The restaurant was practically empty with multiple tables available, yet we were told to stand outside in the rain in cold weather. The server was not only unhelpful but outright rude, refusing to seat us or even add a simple chair. This wasn't just poor service--it was disrespectful and made us feel completely unwelcome. read more

Super cute restaurant! We came in from America and this was our first place to eat. The waiter was super helpful and made a great recommendation. We had the honey chicken and French toast and it was delicious! A must try read more

Servers were kind and checked on us at an appropriate frequency. Wait to be seated was about 30 minutes on a Saturday morning between 1000-1100, but wait following ordering was less than 20 minutes. French Toast was puffy and delicious! read more

this place was soooo fire. my only complaint is that they do not take names at the door so if there is a wait, you have to physically wait in line instead of a text notification or call out your name or something. we waited probably over an hour and it was a chilly morning in the shade. the food was so so good though! i got the pancake tacos and they were perfection. the french toast and honey garlic chicken was so unique. would recommend but be prepared to wait in a line. read more

First visit to Craples and it definitely won't be our last. My husband and I had such a positive experience here. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. What really stood out was how accommodating they were with my husband's gluten allergy--they took the time to explain options and even offered gluten-free and dairy-free choices, which we truly appreciated. The food was phenomenal. The açaí bowl is a must-try--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. We also had a couple of omelets, and they were all delicious and cooked just right. It's not always easy to find a place that delivers both great food and thoughtful service, but this spot does both really well. We left very happy and are already looking forward to coming back. read more

Another brunch option in Yaletown. There was already a queue when I arrived. The waitress didn't come to talk to anyone. I waited quite a while only to be told (since I was alone) I could have just walked in to seat at the bar counter. Clearly poor organisation and overwhelmed staff. Food was good but not great. I tried the craffle smoked salmon benny. Felt a bit chewy to eat but still tasty. I really loved my passion fruit juice. The menu is quite extensive so I'd like to come back to tried more things but I'm quite terrified of the waiting time if I go with friends. read more

Quiet little cafe with lots of seating available inside ! It can get a little crowded though once larger groups come in, but they're quick to accommodate people and seat them best they can. Our waitress was very kind and gave us recommendations on what to order and things to do around the area. I got the crispy chicken and blue cheese savory crepe and my boyfriend got the salmon crepe. I thought his salmon crepe was way better tasting than mine to be honest, it was very fresh and light. Mine was good, but it definitely was heavy and didn't have nearly as much greens as the salmon crepe did. Next time I'm gonna have to try that one! The portion sizes are huge- I nearly didn't finish mine. read more

America could never, (some places can) but this tasted so good! Each bite was a tasty experience of flavor and temperature! The plate presentation to the interior decor and staff makes this place a great option for breakfast! The space is smaller than some but I can see on warm days there is outdoor seating. read more

Brunch all day? Yes please! I've been wanting to try craffles for a while now and finally got around to coming by. They don't take reservations unfortunately and it is a very small location. So they do often have a line up out the door for individuals waiting for a table to dine in. We waited about 25-30 minutes for a table for 2 and it was worth it for me. The decor of the restaurant is super cute. Very friendly staff as well. We ordered two items from the vegan menu and I was actually really surprised at how delicious they were. I will definitely be back! read more

When we paid $22 for an omelette breakfast which came with ham bacon and fries we thought we'd get at least two pieces of toast just like every other place that offers breakfast. However when we find out it's only one piece of toast I just simply asked can I get another piece of toast. So they charged us $2 more for one piece of bread. I hope most of you agree that that almost every place that offers morning breakfast offers at least two pieces of toast like White Spott or Denny's I can go on and o n. Especially when the eggs and bacon and fries are $22. Then I ordered it just a simple drip coffee. Any charges $4.50 for one cup of drip coffee and believe it or not it was stale not very fresh. As a consumer I believe it's my obligation to share this and I definitely will not be ordering breakfast there when there's several other choices in the neighborhood read more

Weekend brunch cravings cured at craffles in downtown vancouver (Yaletown). The Nutella crepe was worth the +30-minutes wait (and yes, I also got eggs Benedict because #treatyourself ). The eggs Benny combination with the craffle base was superb. Ordered: French toast hot honey garlic chicken $20.90, Nutella fruits crepe $15.90, Avocado eggs Benny $18.90, iced latte $4.90, latte $4.90, orange juice $8.50. Tip: do not trust their google wait time estimates. When we went it said ~15 minutes......we ended up waiting in line for 50 minutes. And sadly they wouldn't provide anyone with an estimate. Service 3.5/5 (I'm not sure if they were understaffed or if they kept on forgetting about us, because we felt like we had to ask for the basic stuff. We had to ask for cutlery, napkins, and sauce). Food 5/5 Ambiance 4.5/5 Parking 4.5/5 read more

A Unique Breakfast Spot Worth the Visit Craffles was easily one of the most unique breakfast spots I've been to, and the food did not disappoint. From the crepes to the omelette, the breakfast poutine, and the pancake tacos, everything was delicious and well executed. Each dish had its own creative twist, making the whole experience stand out from your typical breakfast spot. The space itself is a bit small, so it might not be the place for a long, leisurely meal, but honestly? It's worth it. The quality and creativity of the food make up for any lack of space. If you're looking for a breakfast that's a little different but still packed with flavor, Craffle is the spot. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Craffles has the brunch market cornered as demonstrated by the consistent lines to get in starting at 0900. It definitely is a top Vancouver brunch contender as it has a niche: the craffle. The craffle is a waffle using croissant batter, yes, it's delicious and certainly different and I've tried it three times. As with every other place in the area the place is small and overpriced but I find it to be worth the experience. Fresh juices are an added bonus. This past time I thought the service could've been more attentive, I had to ask for more coffee, a breakfast faux pas! I tried the fried chicken benedict on a craffle. The chicken was nice and crunchy and hollandaise flavorful while the eggs a perfect poached. Will I be back? Probably yes. read more

So I went back a 2nd time to try the avocado toast. I avoided the lady who I dealt with the first time because she was too aggressive and rude. On this visit, there was no vegan waffle available, so again, as a flexitarian, I decided to go with the alternative. This isn't great, but at least a complimentary coffee was given by the woman who took my order while I was waiting for my takeout. She was pleasant. Everything was okay until the girl I dealt with the last time aggressively called me to get my order. She just handed me the food and cutlery without offering a bag. The other lady saw this and gave me a bag, which was considerate. Although this seems cute and intimate - ideal for brunch, I simply can not justify coming back for even just take out due to the experiences that I have had. The food is good, but for what you pay for, I'm not sure it is worth fussing over as there are other places with comparable service and food. read more

With unique food options, outstanding service and European-like decor, Craffies is one of the most exciting brunch restaurants I have visited. The food options have exhilarating presentations, such as the Pancake Tacos being brought out as if they were tacos; furthermore, the food was delicious and filling. The service was excellent, quick and prompt to get the orders out. The decor was bright and inviting. Check it out when you want to try something new. read more

We came here on a Saturday and waited about 20 minutes. The space is small, and tables are very close to each other so it can get a bit loud. Definitely not a place for quiet conversations. I got the fried chicken breakfast poutine. The cheese curds didn't melt much because there is no hot gravy over it, and the chicken was very salty. The potato was average. I don't think I'd get this dish again. My partner got the fried chicken benny, and we both liked the croissant dough based waffles. It's like eating a croissant that's been pressed flat into waffle shape. We also shared a mini waffle with blueberries. I liked the crispy texture of the waffle. Overall, it's interesting breakfast comfort food, with a different menu and taste from Nero which we love. I would come back to try other items. read more

Cute spot. Nice decor. Service was lovely. The craffles are delicious. Perfect texture. They don't have a lot of flavor so it depends on what you put on them. I got the vegan avocado craffle. It could have used more flavor and I could have eaten more but it was healthy and good. My partner got the vegan whipped craffle. It was so delicious and perfectly sweet with healthy fruit. I'd recommend that one of you are feeling a sweet breakfast. I'd go back for sure. read more

This was my second time visiting but first time coming for brunch. It was a full house when I arrived and I was worried the about how long the wait was going to be. To my surprise, I only had to wait around 10 minutes before being seated. Menu wise, I noticed the restaurant no longer offered savoury dishes on waffles, which was quite disappointing as I remembered the waffles to be delicious the last time I visited. I ended up ordering a Spanish chorizo crepe and thought the flavours were good, but it just had too much cheese, hence making the dish on the saltier side. I'm not sure if I'll be back for brunch again but I might come back for a sweet afternoon snack. read more

Such a yummy vegan breakfast! So grateful they have a vegan menu. We were struggling to find decent vegan options for breakfast, and we're so glad this place came through! We got the OMG IT'S VEGAN BITES in jalapeño. Sooooooo delicious. We each ordered THE AMAZING VEGAN BREAKFAST, which came with a vegan craffle, "eggs," "sausage," and salad. We added potatoes for $4. It was definitely pricey for our meals, but we were really happy to have a filling, tasty, and satisfying breakfast. The service was friendly and quick, and the atmosphere was really modern and cozy. I would definitely come back here! read more

Food was fine. They were busy so we offered to do take out but they didn't like that then a table came up for four and we had five and they were reluctant to put us at that table (kept telling us to wait outside) and finally a table for 6 came up and they had us wait while they cleaned that off. We didn't actually care we could have gone somewhere else but they could have at least been kind while jerking us around. Kind of felt like we were in trouble the whole time. Very unwelcoming (except one young man). read more

Often extremely busy, especially on the weekends, and staff aren't particularly proficient at seating people in a timely manner. But the food is creative, high-quality, and plentiful, with plenty of vegan options. My wife & I had been wanting to try this place for months, but always balked due to the long line-ups. We finally decided to withstand the wait, and it wasn't too bad given that we were willing to sit at the counter (the place is quite small). They have a special vegan section on the menu without 6 different items. I got the Green Crispy Chik'n Tapioca ($18.50) and my wife got the Vegan Avocado Toast ($14.90) with some JUST Egg added ($5.50). The food came out in about 10-15 minutes, not bad given how busy they were. My tapioca dish was like an omelette made out of a flaky, dry tapioca starch that doesn't look the prettiest, but when you dig in, you're treated to an array of textures and flavours that work really well together. Inside was crispy Beyond Chicken, spinach, tomatoes, and lots of vegan cheese -- almost reminded me of a French omelette with the sharper cheese character. Extremely filling and tasty. My wife's avocado toast was slightly more conventional but served on a croffle. There was plenty of JUST Egg, avocado, and arugula, with a good drizzle of balsamic glaze. The taste I had was solid, but I'm not totally convinced it works on a croffle. We also got a couple of double espressos, which were made nicely. Service was extremely friendly and proficient once we got inside. Very solid, creative spot. Recommended despite the expected waits. read more

Very cute aesthetic interior and beautifully plated foods. The location is exceptionally tiny, so be prepared to hear 100% of the conversations of the people sitting next to you. Staff is typically pretty busy and rushing around trying to accommodate guests as quickly as possible since the line outside grows quite long. I'm not sure how busy it gets on weekdays but on the weekends expect to wait 30 min to an hour to get seated. Everything I have ordered to eat here has been great from both the savory and the sweet options. Recently got the apple pie waffle for my entree and split a chicken, bacon, mozzarella pastel. Apple pie waffle was great, and I definitely recommend spending the extra $3 to add ice cream to the dish. Pastel was also amazing even though it was a starter for the table that arrived when we were nearly done with our entrees. Overall this is a place I recommend. read more

This was the most excellent and unique brunch I have had in a long time and I will definitely be stopping here on all future trips to Vancouver. So happy to find this place randomly by my hotel and discover that they have a ton of vegan options. Looks like they have two locations and only one is dine in so I definitely scored. The wait was long, but completely worth it, be sure to dress warm for standing outside. Inside it is very crowded, this is not for the claustrophobic, people afraid of germs or those wanting to have private conversations. If these things do not appeal to you they also seem to have a strong take out game which also adds to the overcrowding of people inside. Looks like you can come in just for to go coffee bar. There are a ton of employees working in such a small place, I'm surprised they are able to move around without spilling food and drinks on everyone, but I guess this must make it more efficient so that they can get people in and out. It can be a challenge to get up to go to the bathroom. I was so surprised people would choose to come here with large parties and children. They also seem to be known for their monster shakes, which I may consider trying on my next visit. They're definitely for those who like to photograph their food, but seems they have a vegan option too and I do enjoy fun food. I had such a hard time deciding what to order as there were so many interesting choices and I still don't know exactly what a croffle is. After much debate I opted for the Green Crispy Chick'n Tapioca, this was so tasty. I don't know why more food isn't folded into tapioca as this is outstanding. It did seem highly priced, but it was so rich and filling, I could only eat half of it. I've been dreaming about this ever since. My partner liked his food too, but I don't remember what it was. read more

Yummy brunch spot but not a lot of seating so be prepared to wait! You can leave your name inside (they don't take phone numbers) and wait by the door outside. We waited for 20 minutes for two people around 12:30pm on a Sunday. Seating was quite tight. We ordered the chicken waffles and the berry açai bowl to share. The chicken waffles were quite filling and the açai bowl was nice and refreshing topped with strawberries, blueberries and granola. Will have to come back to try their milkshakes. read more

Lovely and quaint spot, Craffle delivers on all fronts: delectable dishes, great service and great coffee. The craffle is something I hadn't had before, a savory take on a waffle that is fantastic.

OMG just ordered and devoured eggs benny and fried buttermilk chicken poutine from Craffles...Delicious and hot...YUm YUM!!

The food is excellent! Eat here almost once a week. It's a fun, creative, tasty menu.

It's named Craffles so you know we had to order the crepes and the waffles! I got the goat on the roof crepe and my friend got the chicken crepe - both were great!! The goat one had a lot of mushrooms though so be prepared. Then we ordered a Nutella waffle to share... so crispy and delicious! Our server was very friendly and attentive. Only downside was that the space is a little small. read more

ARE U KIDDING ME. I stumbled upon this place by chance and it completely wow'ed my partner and I. Our original plan was to go to the popular OED, but the wait time for a Sunday Brunch was just too long for our hungry tummies. We were looking for a close-by place in Yaletown, and saw Craffles on yelp - called ahead and there was zero wait time. We were initially drawn to it because the waffle combo looked yummy yummy. We saw the pics on yelp of the Tapioca Crispy Chicken and knew... this place knows what they're cookin! When we walked in we noticed it was a smaller, cozy restaurant. The seats were comfy, even if you didnt get the booth side of the table. They had really cute chairs. The decor was simple. Still aesthetic and clean. More minimalist but beautiful! You can def get some cute pics here. Warning: this place has way too many good options. It was very hard to choose. We got the waffle combo to start because we knew it'd be out fast. We got the ferrero, kinder bueno, and matcha flavors. They were all ah-may-ZINGGGGGG. The flavors weren't too over whelming or sweet. The waffle itself has its own naturally sweet flavor as well. The texture was soft and chewy, as if there were layers of dough inside - but not heavy. It's definitely a good sharing item, we ate half of them and didn't finish the rest until the next day. My partner got the Tapioca Crispy Chicken. The crepe was like a Banh Xeo. It has a nice fluffy crisp texture that goes well with the crunchiness of the chicken. And wowwww the buffalo and blue cheese inside of the crepe was DELICIOUS!! I got the Hot Honey Chicken and French toast. Did. Not. Disappoint. Every bite made up for the bad dinner I had at the Eatery the night before (lol). The chicken never got soggy, even when I took some home to eat hours later. The flavor was sweet, and not spicy at all. I would say the heat is comparable to Sweet Chili sauce, if not more mild. The french toast was very very soft and fluffy. And had a creaminess to it that went well with the hot honey sauce. Overall, coming here again. There were so many other items I wanted to try. I had a great experience and walked out feelin GOOD! read more

Out of vegan waffles? As I ordered something I had been looking forward to, the vegan chicken and waffles, the waitress says, "Oh, didn't I tell you that we were out of the vegan waffle today?" No. No you did not. And if you had, I might have not eaten here. How do you not have the vegan waffle when all the regular waffle has in it that isn't vegan is a little bitter? Honestly, wtf. That's sloppy, lazy, and dumb. Also, the waitress had the audacity to also ask, "Are you actually a vegan or just a vegetarian?" Bitch, it ain't none of your business. You don't have what I ordered. You don't need to know shit about my eating preferences. The vegan tapioca is what I had. It was pretty good. But I didn't come to a waffle place for that. We were sat at a four top for a party of two and halfway through waiting for the food to come, we were asked to accept that the table we were at would be split, with our permission, to accommodate a party of 3. Come the fuck on. Pretty standard, but you'd already failed pretty hard. Don't keep fucking up. So, basically, here's the deal: I'm a tourist, so I will more than likely never come back. If I lived around here, tho, I could see really being into this place and then deciding to never come again based on this experience. The staff was nice enough. Do better, tho. Honestly. read more
