I had a wonderful breakfast from Crispy Crepes Café. I ordered their 2222 and a plain crepe. The portions were generous, and the food was tasty. In addition, you can't beat the price. Not only will I be back, I highly recommend the spot. read more

SO and I were feeling weekend brunch so we decided to try out Crispy Crepes Cafe. This is a super no-frills place that also does a bunch of seemingly random food like kebabs, shawarma plates, and pasta. I'm guessing drunk college kids go to town here. However, we are way past that demographic and simply went for some sweet crepes for breakfast. SO got the super crepe version of apple, cinnamon, and brown sugar crepe and chose ham and potatoes as his sides. I got a regular strawberry, banana, and Nutella crepe (i.e. no savory sides). The chef and (I assume) manager made them to-order and gave them to us at our table. These crepes were huge and stuffed full of filling. They used fresh pieces of fruit which were cut in large chunks. I really enjoyed my strawberry, banana, and Nutella crepe. The actual crepe had a nice soft yet chewy texture with a very slight crisp on the outside. I think it helped that my fruits were soft; my SO's crepe looked a bit unwieldy since it was full of large chunks of raw apple. I think for apples it would have been better to cook them down more. Overall I think this is a what-you-see-is-what-you-get type of place. Kind of like if you decided to make crepes at home, thought that would take a lot more effort than eating here. read more

Rounding up. Overall crepe quality was good. Appropriate chew. For apple crepe (3/5) apple pieces were a little large and hard to get the perfect bite. Was not too sweet though. Banana Nutella crepe (4/5) was more balanced. Overall scratched crepe itch and solid. Was like diner food but with crepes read more

Was looking for a good dessert place after a lovely dinner near BU but it's almost impossible because there's quite literally 0 things around except ice cream and this lovely gem. Nutella and strawberry crepe (10/10): affordable and packed, they do not skimp on the Nutella or strawberries. Had to share it with another person to finish it all! The cashier was really sweet. I appreciate him being patient with my indecisiveness. They have a wide selection of crepes, ranging from savory to sweet as well as other foods. It's a small cafe, but they made use of their space. It seems like the ideal place to come grab a treat with your friends and chat. Cozy yet very casual. I would love to come back and try their other options! read more

What I really like this place, is that it is all about the food and the college kids. When I went to college, which was a long time ago, it was all about value meals. Lots of food and well priced and this place delivers. Although the name is Crispy Crepes, they also have a really good selection of Mediterranean Plates, like falafel, shawarma and more. My mushroom, ham and cheese was good. Both the ham and mushroom were really fresh and you can tell that they were nice and fresh ingredients. The cheese, may have been the Velveeta kind, but I do believe that it made for a great combination with the ham and mushrooms, because it melted well in your mouth. My wife loved her Chicken Shawarma sandwich, which also had very flavorful and nice combination of ingredients. What she liked the most is how they press the pita sandwich, so that it comes out nice and crunchy. My daughter loved her Nutella/Chocolate Crepe, she said that there was plenty of it inside the crepe and the whipped cream was like icing on the cake. Service was fast, again, this is a college place and I think that this is being run to serve food fast and cater to the college crowd that keeps coming in and out. Parking can be challenging, because this is on Commonwealth Avenue a few blocks away from Kenmore Square. We got lucky, because it was Sunday and during Spring Break weekend and not sure about how the rest of the week would look like, but if you live in the area and you want a quick bite, this place is good. The place may need a bit of updating, but as I said in the beginning, this is about food and college kids. Great value for our meal and definitely one that we will come back, when we are in the area! Cheers! read more

Very good breakfast crepes and generous portions. Friendly fast service. Dining in accommodation is very casual and limited, a handful of shared common spaces at a couple of counters but it gets the job done. This place is small and the entrance is a walk up, not wheelchair compatible FYI read more

Yummy crepe! I had the tomato mozzarella spinach pesto crepe and it came with home fires on the side. Came out fast!

Lovely tiny cafe in the heart of BU. The owner was surprised when kiddo requested chocolate and ham for the crepe filling but managed to keep a straight face - and delivered! All in all, we enjoyed a great breakfast. read more

Update: they now take Apple Pay! Still a consistent lunch destination, but now you don't have to worry about paying with a physical card because who likes taking out their wallet anymore anyway. :) read more

I was in Boston for 2 days for some college visits. Had breakfast here both days. Oh my, it's soooo good! Good quality food, in a very central location -- It's right in the middle of the BU campus. The restaurant itself was straightforward and no-nonsense. Slightly crowded, always clean, with fast service. I Had pancakes and the Tuscany crepe the first day, good mix of sweet and savory. The Tuscany has an amazing pesto flavor, and the potatoes that come with the savory crepes are amazing: crispy, well seasoned, and not at all oily(despite being fried). The pancakes were wonderfully fluffy and sweet, with slightly crispy edges. The second day, I had a savory crepe with mushroom, onion, tomato, spinach, and cheese, along with the classic strawberry Nutella crepe. The mushrooms and onions were beautifully cooked and flavorful, and of course the potatoes that came with were amazing. The strawberry Nutella crepe was also awesome. The crepe was cooked beautifully, and it was not overwhelmingly sweet. Possibly the best crepe I've had in my life. I would happily come back to try all of the things on their menu. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. read more

Came here to get dinner before class. I got a small chicken shawarma dinner plate and a strawberry, banana, Nutella crepe ($20.71 total). For a drink I got a 20 fl Oz Snapple Diet Raspberry iced tea ($2.41). I really enjoyed my chicken shawarma plate. Everything was really flavorful and well seasoned. The rice and potato wedges were fantastic. The chicken was perfectly crispy and also very well seasoned. The diet raspberry Snapple isn't really related to this specific restaurant but I think it's pretty rare to find the 20 fl Oz bottles, usually they're 16.9 fl Oz. So that was kind of nice. The strawberry banana Nutella crepe was incredibly good. I would definitely come back here just to try more of their crepes. The service was super friendly. I got to watch my crepe get made as well. The woman making it did a great job. Overall 5 stars. Would definitely recommend. Great experience all around. read more

This place is located right on BU campus, making it convenient for students to grab a bite! They currently have outdoor seating. They're popular for their crepes, but they also offer Mediterranean food. My friend and I recently came here for brunch around 10:30am on a Saturday as a last-minute decision. It was pretty empty when we were there but once we left, a large group arrived. The worker there was nice and since we sat outside, he brought our crepes out to our table. The crepes were prepared pretty quickly - while we waited, we took a look at the plant store next door. I ordered the Banana Honey Almond Crepe and my friend got a Super Crepe (comes with 2 sides: Potatoes, Bacon, Ham, Sausage, or Scrambled Eggs). She chose the Banana, Strawberry, and Nutella Crepe with potatoes and bacon. They also came with some whipped cream. The crepes were very light, delicious, and sweet! I'd come here again if I'm in the mood for crepes. read more

This crepe place is So delicious! My boyfriend and I are visiting Boston and wanted to find the best breakfast joints in town while we were here and we found one of the best. The service was pretty good while the food and coffee was superb! Not pictured: the best vanilla iced coffee I've ever had that got slammed down just as quickly as they made it! I highly recommend the strawberry banana Nutella crepe and French vanilla iced coffee! read more

This is somewhat of a BU hidden gem. Sitting right on campus, this cafe is not a huge BU student lunch spot in the way it should be. I went in early on a Friday and it was empty (to be fair, it was 10 am) I ordered a Tuscan panini, which was chicken, roasted red peppers, mozzarella, spinach, and pesto. The panini was delicious and exactly what I wanted. Sandwiches are served with home fries, although it is a small portion of potatoes. However, since I personally was just interested in the panini, it seemed like something extra. The outside is so unsuspecting, but inside there's a few tables and counters to sit at. However, the look doesn't at all clue you in to the food which is fantastic. As a BU student, every time I am in here I question why I'm not more often - definitely will be back! read more

Ordered a lamb kebab plate and a banana/strawberry/nutella crepe. First the lamb kebab, the rice was really not flavorful nor was fun to eat-- it was hard and dry. The lamb was good but there was only a few pieces. Oh now the crepe, the crepe itself was too thick. It had the consistency of a corn tortilla. I wouldn't recommend it. Also the strawberries were a little overripe. read more

I've been to Crispy Crepes Cafe before many moons ago in my pre-Yelp days, so when it came to coming up with a dinner option before a movie at Regal Fenway Stadium 13, Crispy Crepes came to mind! Located around the corner from Mei Mei's still newish brick & mortar location, Crispy Crepes Cafe is a counter service establishment with a rather good sized dining area hogging perhaps 2/3rds of its footprint. Paintings decorate the walls and there's a rather cozy sitting area in the back corner. From the Signature Crepes menu, I selected the French Dip (roast beef, onions, au jus with brie) $6.95, while one DC requested the Lamb Kabob (Served with salad. Choice of rice, fries or couscous.) $12.50 from the Dinner Plates section. The nice lady behind the counter let us know that if we ordered two items off the Dinner Plates section that we'd get a nutella banana crepe free (deal not available on weekends). But we decided to stick with what we had ordered plus one of the strawberries and nutella sweet crepes $6.35 for dessert. All that plus a bottle of water came up to just over $29, but they also had water station available for those who were fine with good ole Boston water. The crepes were both good and well filled. The dinner plate was generous and prettily plated with carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, and a scoop of hummus topping the salad half. The lamb kabob plate could have potentially filled the appetite of a hungry individual, while the savory crepe the tummy of a lighter weight. But together, along with the sweet crepe, it quite satisfied the three of us, including our sweettooths. After we were done, we busted our own tables and made use of their rather chilly facilities that is available for customers only. Bring some cash in case you don't hit their $7 minimum credit card charge. I'd like to come back sometime to try their Tuscany (pesto-scented chicken, roma tomato, spinach, sundried tomato and buffalo mozzarella) Signature Crepe $6.95 or fruity french toast ($6.25 or $5.25). read more

I have been wanting to try Crispy Crepes and decided to come here to try it out since my friend and I were getting breakfast together to catch up. It's on Comm Ave, so it's perfect for any BU students. There are limited seating, so be aware! Crispy Crepes has a wide range of different sweet and savory options. I ordered a sweet crepe with nutella, strawberries, and banana, with a cute little dollop of whipped cream. The crepe was okay, wasn't horrible or wow me either. It really is "crispy" but does have a side of soft crepes. I personally like softer crepes, but that's on me! Service is really nice and fast. But I just don't know if I would be back. read more

This is by far my favourite place on the BU Campus.

I walked by before a Red Sox game. In need of a beer buffer, I had a lamb kebob wrap. It was a tasty foundation for some beers. --- note: no liquor here! Unfortunately, the lamb was on the tough side. A common problem in the US. Somehow, getting good lamb can be a challenge. Nevertheless, the taste was very good. Now reading the other reviews, I bet that they will get an upgrade when I am back for a crepe. read more

Real food at a reasonable price. Crepes were swept up and consumed quickly: eggs, sausage and cheese, Nutella and strawberries, strawberries. And cream. With a food allergy in the group an egg, cheese bacon omelette was custom made, potatoes with a little thyme were just right.Coffee was not so good but did the trick. Convenient across from BU campus. read more

Had the falafel and it was excellent. Others in group had crepes and shawarma and said it was good. read more

They are right about them being Crispy! I agree with other yelpers on this point. Not that this makes them bad, just kind of unusual. I still prefer Paris Crepes in Coolidge Corner (see my review) to this place, but if you can't stand to walk a little further up the street, this is a decent alternative. I also like the decor here a lot better than the decor at Paris. Here they have a cool exposed brick wall and funky Middle Eastern stuff hanging around. Much more interesting to look at than the faux-Parisian crap at Paris. But man, just thinking about crepes makes me sad. Remember the awesome ones at Marche and Le Gamin (RIP, tout les deux). read more

Just average. It's a small cafe. I ordered the apple, nutella, and coconut crepe. It was alright. The apples kept falling out and there was not enough nutella. But overall, it wasn't incredibly terrible or good. read more

I love crepes and am a little harsh on any creperie that doesn't do an excellent job! This is a very mom'n'pop shop but somehow the cleanliness isn't like your momma's kitchen! They are always out of ingredients and substitute them without even telling or asking you! We had the roma tomato-spinach-basil crepe as well as the strawberry-nutella crepe. They were good but not spectacular or very satisfying. The quantities are very small too given how thin their crispy crepes are! The french toast was very average and nothing to order next time! I hear Boston doesn't have too many creperies and thus this one is rgerefore a preferred choice, but they wouldn't survive long in Chicago with the strong competition around! read more

When life gives you late nights at photonics, crispy crepes is a sight for sore eyes for those living in south. Owned by the nicest people ever, they serve really good grilled sandwiches (paninis) from $6.50 - 6.75 and you can get an Arizona with a side of fries for $2 only. A meal here is definitely is not going to break your bank. One criticism is that they tend to be understaffed, so food takes a bit longer than other restaurants around BU to come out. Other than that, this is my restaurant of choice if one is around BU. I suggest the IL Roast and Rustico panini. read more

This place is literally right in the middle of campus but I've somehow only noticed it now. The cashier who took my order was super friendly which was nice. I ordered the Il Roast panini. The panini itself was pretty good. Not exactly what I was expecting from a panini but I still enjoyed it. The fries were not that good unfortunately. The price was decent and the location is just too hard to beat so I'll definitely be back. read more

The old fashioned glass cokes automatically makes this place AWESOME. Anyways, I hardly trek out to this corner of campus, but it's reallly a great place to be!

The portions are big too--perfect for a fatty like me. read more

You know when you hear great things about a place and you get this sort of fantastical anticipation for it and when you finally get it you wonder why you were so psyched to begin with. That's what Crispy Crepes Cafe was for me. Not to say that the food wasn't good just that it wasn't as good as I expected. I came here on a Friday night. I was really excited to try their Tuscany crepe. The place wasn't that busy and had plenty of seats available. I ordered my crepe for here and took a seat. 10 minutes later I got my crepe. Presentation looked great. It was stuffed with chicken, mozzarella and tomatoes. However the taste left a bit to be desired. The chicken even though it was supposedly "pesto scented" didn't taste like it had any seasoning. Even the pesto you couldn't taste much of. I don't usually put salt and pepper on a crepe but this needed some. Also the chicken was overcooked. It was tough cutting through it. The knife action I had to go through was akin to cutting up a well done steak. I don't think a chicken crepe should have so much work put into it. But that's just my opinion. I was full after my meal but it was underwhelming and a bit of a disappointment. I think this place would probably make a better schwarma roll-ups than crepes and would be trying one of those instead if I ever return. read more
