I would like to preface this review with the following disclaimer: I have never been to Brittany…read moreand, therefore, am not intimately familiar with "Bretagne style crepes". Now with that out of the way.. YUM! This was my first actual restaurant-crepe experience, if you don't count that tiny cafe in Bellecour, the stand in Part Dieu, or that overpriced but super cute salon de thé in Vieux Lyon. This was the first time I had a full crepe meal. I ordered the Pacifique, which included smoked salmon, avocado, tomato, a mango sorbet, lemon, and chive cream. It was amazing. For dessert, I went with the banana caramel option and I ate it all, even though I was full and shouldn't have. I also ordered a green salad for my appetizer, (which was tasty,) and my husband chose the butter crepe for his, (which he said was awesome.) Both of us and his brother-in-law, who was dining with us, tried a glass of cider and we all enjoyed it immensely. I had the rose, my husband had the brut, and my brother-in-law had the original. Besides the specialty crepes, you can build your own with 1, 2, or 3 ingredients. Although there are no strictly vegetarian crepes on the specialty menu, you can easily build your own. My brother-in-law had one with tomato, onion, and mushrooms that he quite enjoyed. As an added bonus, the waitress and the chef were both super friendly and helpful and happy. We will definitely be back!

Having spent two months in Britagne (Brittany) recently, we had eaten some really good galettes. We…read morewere hoping for something good, and it was. Each of us (4) had a different galette (with cidre), and it brought back many good Breton memories. We finished with a salted-caramel crepe with glace and chantilly. Delicious finish to a good light meal. Recommend highly (x4).

La Marelie is a great place where you can tell locals go to. We ordered La Popeye, the Vegetarienne…read moreand a sweet crepe with chocolate. Although the cheese was a little rich on the savory crepes, the veggies were cooked well and the fried egg on top was a nice touch. The sweet crepe was simple but very delicious. Although our server spoke mainly French, it was nice she was patiently listening to us, as we slowly spoke their language to the best of our ability. I would be interested to try the other creperies and see how La Marelie stacks up against the others.

The savory crêpes (galettes) are all right, but I've definitely had better. There also was only one…read morevegetarian option (the other vegetarian option is only available with the set menu during weekdays). We were told to order a galette with meat and ask for it without the meat, but we still had to pay the same amount. Other than that, the service was kind and the sweet crêpes were good. The restaurant is only a 10-15 minute walk away from Lyon Part-Dieu, so it's a decent place to have an authentic lunch by the station.
