We went for ice creams which were quality (so many choices - the Smarties one delighted my 2 year old daughter :-)) and I really want to return soon to get stuck into the waffles. Yes - I will be back, very very soon! *This area is a great setting to take a chilled family day out in - lovely park, lots of games for kids to play, slides and swings etc. Park down by the campsite for £2 all day parking.

Located in the corner of the outside area of Altrincham market, these guys seriously know how to put a pancake/crepe or galette together. It took a little while to order at first, but that just gave more time to look over the sweet offerings - nutella, cinnamon, cream, sugar, lemon curd - they have whatever it takes to please your sweet tooth. Ever the one to make the most of a situation, I went for nutella, marshallow and cream. Served straight from the griddle, these things are hot, so grab a napkin as well as the cardboard cone it's served in. The cream quickly melted into the rest of the pancake, but the whole thing was a messy treat, so this didn't impact the experience whatsoever. Tackled both with my hands and a fork, it took a while to get the eating style right; seems the 'shove it in your face and hope no one is taking a photo' trick is the way to go! Chocolate, marshmallow-y, and creamy. What more could you want?

The feel of the place is european yet homely, with mismatching chairs, bare brick walls, outside seating and cute traditional china for their delicious teas. On our most recent visit, I had a "zesty orange" crepe - that's caramelised banana in an orange and cardamom sauce, topped with mascapone cheese - and it was absolutely delicious. My partner had caramelised apples with cinnamon, sugar, creme fraiche and honey on her crepe, and wouldn't stop raving about it. They also do great savory crepes and the entries on the specials blackboard are always worth a try! Considering it's a crepe, and probably not a substitute for a meal, Aubrey's is not inexpensive. It is, however, a delightful and delicious experience, and the staff are fantastic too.

We found this city centre creperie by accident, not design, in the hunt for a good savoury lunch…read more The menu looked perfect and all three of us agreed instantly to go in. It's been a heck of a long time since we were last in Chester. In fact, there was no such place as Starbucks or Costa and a Frappuccino wasn't even in the language it's that far back. Starbucks, a second wave coffee provider, was only venturing into Canada when we were last there. Creperies too were places you'd find only in Brittany and Normandy. The great British public would have eschewed, nay nay, pooh - poohed the very thought way back when. But all change; doncha just love it that the only constant is change? Having enjoyed many a good savoury and sweet crepe - doesn't everybody enjoy a good crepe? - in Brittany and Normandy with calvados and crisp, light, sweet cidré we knew done right it would be tasty. So I had the crisp bacon & maple syrup crepe (just over £5) and being moi (well we must nod to the French) I had only one question. Is it maple syrup or that artificial flavoured sugar rubbish pretending to be maple syrup. The reply was instant and welcome: the real Mc Coy. Great. I did have a moment of weakness mind as there was a goat cheese choice but I stuck with bacon. My companions chose an all day breakfast crepe and a Mexican chicken crepe respectively (just over £7 each). We all had cappuccinos (large at under £3 each) and Welsh sparkling water (£1.8), none of yer Perrier or Badoit here, just right too. The service was darn good. The food was tasty, light and perfect - ooh la la - as our French cousins might say. The coffee was alright and more third wave but I'd prefer a much more punchy coffee, but disappointment aside I'll leave it five star for the great service and tasty food. It might even take us back to Chester one day, but I did notice a divine looking (and smelling) Yorkshire pudding sandwich shop, so it might be there next time - now you certainly won't find one of those in Normandy or Brittany, vive la difference.

They have both savory & sweet crepes to try from (as well as various baked goods, ice cream, milkshakes and coffee/tea). Lots of toppings to choose from and various ways they will make a crepe for you. If I had to make any suggestions, it would be to only clean up (maybe 'polish' is the better word?) the inside appearance: turn the glasses over so dust doesn't settle inside, have containers set up along the inside of the display case to show ingredients available to choose from but not ones too big as to cover up the crepe making stations b/c it's interesting to watch, and laminate the menus once they're set. Just a few minor adjustments would have it looking professional but still unique! The folks who worked there are great too: didn't mind talking to us yanks about the shop while we sat there and watched crepe making in action. I'll be paying them a visit again soon!

I've had the savoury crepes. They are really nice, full of fresh ingredients and flavour. Along with the excellent coffee, this makes for an ideal lunch, far healthier than many of the other options in Trinity Leeds. On the less healthy side, the deserts look very tasty indeed, and certainly seem to generate a lot of smiles for those receiving them. I have to add, I haven't personally tried them. I'm a savoury rather than sweet person. Crepe Affaire is situated nicely within Trinity, with a glass floor and with a big glass window looking out towards the railway station. One part of the glass floor has a lot of cracks in it, which makes me slightly nervous, so I don't sit near there :) The staff have always been friendly, and I'm sure I will go back many more times.

My sister introduced me to Crepe Affair, and we pop in during shopping trips regularly now. It's in Trinity centre, not as obvious as other food places, but you are drawn in by the wonderful smells. You order at the till, and the staff make the crepe right in front of your eyes (like they do on crepe stalls at markets and stuff- no microwaves in sight!) and you can have sweet (I recommend strawberry and the banana and Nutella- yum!) or savoury, with plenty of vegetarian options. The price is reasonable for a city centre sweet tooth's dream, and the coffees nice too! Check it out next time you're passing! Pros: SO GOOD Lots of fillings, and you see the food made from fresh in front of you Savoury crepes, with plenty for veggies Student discount Cons: Seating always packed when it's busy Occasionally there's only been one person making the food and on the till one order at a time, so service can be slow. But it's worth it ;)

Alarm bells should have been ringing when I saw the half attempt at an outdoor seating area, but I thought let's not judge a book by its cover. However inside is worse. The staff member who greeted me was smiley enough but she couldn't make a coffee to ace her life, the look of panic when I thought about ordering a crepe was enough to put me off. I stuck to a latte and sandwedge on her advice but it seemed she'd never made a coffee before. It does strike me as odd that anyone should open a business that coffee must be a large part of yet employ some one who though has obviously been stuck in the cafe trade for many years has managed to avoid learning anything about coffee. The ciabatta was undercooked and soggy the coffee was like warm and had almost no trace of coffee in it, and the price was far to high even if the coffee and sandwege had been good. Failing on every level, it really is a mystery why there wouldn't be an employee on the premesis who could make a decent cup of coffee or who knew one side of a bread knife from another. A sweets shop here is just what the area needs but this place is a complete dive.

This tiny, Parisian themed cafe is situated on the Albert Docks in Liverpool and after hearing my best friend describe their pancakes as "the best in Liverpool" I had to go check out this place for myself. I took an old friend there when she came to visit me and ordered the cheese, tomato and egg crepe but asked to swap the egg for ham whilst my friend opted for steak and chips, which apparently was actually quite edible unlike my meal. The crepe looked pretty impressive when delivered to my table but was one of the blandest meals I've ever eaten in my life with next to no flavour, even with the several toppings I ordered, even adding sauces, salt and pepper to the dish. I haven't eaten crepes since, I really think it's put me off the dish for a long time.

The place looks very classy indeed from the outside and as though it is the kind of place a formal dinner should be had or something for a special occasion. The place proclaims a lot of itself which I suppose is a typical sign of French arrogance which is not a bad thing at all as long as you deliver on the bold promises that are being made. The problem here is that I do not believe this place does deliver to the level it could do. I have eaten at many French restaurants and recently returned from a few days in the wonderful city of Paris and unfortunately this place does not quite measure up. In fact I believe places such as Bistro Franc and Cafe rouge which are slightly less central and expensive both offer a closer experience to that of France itself. This place promises much but unfortunately delivers little.

We enjoyed the New Mexico pancake, which I'd definitely recommend - great flavours and very filling. On my second visit, we were seated immediately, and decided what to order within 30 seconds. Unfortunately no one came to take our order, and we had trouble flagging down a staff member due to the position of our table behind a partition wall. Eventually, a lovely staff member named Lynne came over, advised she'd seen us sit down a while ago and was sorry that we hadn't been served. She immediately told us our meal would be free of charge, and continued to serve us very quickly for the rest of our visit. I had the Cookie Monster pancake, which was delicious but, again, very filling - I'll likely have the smaller portion next time. I would always recommend The Pancake House, and will take advantage of their great food every time I visit Center Parcs.
