We sat outside by the parking lot, but they have a nice little area with big, comfortable tables. There's a QR code you can scan to see the whole menu, which was very handy, because the menu is huge! It took us a long time to scroll through the entire drink menu because there were so many choices! For dinner, we decided to get 12 inch pizza so we could try a bunch of different kinds. We thought that the barbecue chicken pizza was one of the best we've ever had! The pesto pizza was also outstanding!

The drink menu is extensive and definitely warrants more than one visit to try all of the ones you want. Great place for a group or if you want some quiet space to yourself. Looking forward to my next time.

When I arrived, someone was teaching a kid to play chess. I don't know if the chess board is a regular thing but the books, art, and wifi are all part of the appeal.

It's flavored with capsicum, in addition to ginger.

Once again Fox 2 News in Detroit has done a nice job highlighting a local business that I would not…read morehave known about otherwise. I ventured out within a couple of hours of viewing to experience Le crepe on Washington Avenue in downtown Royal Oak. I was greeted upon entering while my 2-high top table was arranged. The ambiance and vibe in this small space was extremely relaxing and the staff friendly. Tiekeya, the owner, was helpful when I explained that it was my first time. My server was her niece, a young lady with a tremendous smile who shared she was a student at MSU as I was wearing a pullover displaying her Alma mater that I know well from paying so much tuition over several years for my children. I started with an enjoyable vanilla cappuccino which was prepared to my liking. I did not feel rushed at all, but the service was attentive and consistent throughout my dining experience. The restaurant was quite popular on this morning and I heard others mentioning the segment on the news. It was funny, as I was texting a couple of friends (foodies) from work who were very curious to hear about my experience. I was sharing quickly upon sitting down as this was a nice treat. I reviewed the menu which had several unique choices and I decided to order The Green Goat which was a crepe containing pan-seared chicken, bacon, Granny Smith apples, and caramelized onions with goat cheese and a little arugula. The combination of flavors was delicious in every aspect! Wow! As wonderful as my main course was, the sweet crepe favorites were even tastier. I chose the Cinnamon Sweet Cheese with bananas which included a crepe containing the bananas and a house cinnamon cream cheese icing that was fantastic! Thanks again to Fox 2 News as I will gladly make the 24 minute drive to enjoy this experience again. I also was thrilled to meet Chef Dennis in the kitchen who I had seen on the news. Do enjoy if you venture out and there is free parking for the first two hours in the nearby garage. Le Crepe was so good that I returned the next day and enjoyed a wonderful local brewed enjoyable coffee while I waited for a table. On day #2, I was really struggling to decide which crepe to try from so many descriptive choices on the menu. I chose the James Dean which was also fantastic once again. It was a delicious combination of flavors of scrambled eggs, a slightly spicy homemade sausage that was a perfect complement, and red skin potatoes with a cherry sauce drizzle. Tiekeya assured me that I can try one of the others when I come back on Tuesday . It is wonderful to meet such a kind business owner and it was refreshing to experience the staff interaction and she shared that I have now become one of her "regulars". I can't wait to come back and introduce family and friends to this amazing menu of tasty treats.

Recently wanted to try something different based on the drink flavors that were on the menu. I was…read moredefinitely intrigued at the authentic flavor that it was giving for the Pineapple Slushie and Grapefruit Slushie. It wasn't too sweet but, it did give off amazing flavor. Will definitely be ordering again. I did also try their Mochi Waffle and Egg Puff. The egg puff that I got was Matcha and through every bite you were able to taste the matcha almost a caffinated buzz in each bite. The mochi waffle flavor was Oreo and though I would prefer more oreo that was the best flavor I was too try. I would definitely recommend for a family outing or even if you have kids to bring them here to get a slushie for the hot summer heat that will be rolling in with us soon.

Though the coffee shop is a bit cavernous inside, my companion and I were able to quietly converse because of the clever noise-reduction ceiling craftwork that damped down the echo. The barista was very pleasant. We found seating easily. There are a variety of options to choose from. The tables and chairs were clean and free of crumbs and spills. I noticed free WiFi is available as well. My companion enjoyed his Cortado. I ordered brewed coffee, and asked if my clean personal cup might be used instead. Not only did the staff oblige, but i received a $0.25 discount too! I think i love this place for its commitment to a greener planet! Coffee was from a flavorful, fruit-forward Costa Rica bean. It was a perfect pairing with the large, flakey, chocolate croissant my companion and i shared. Price point is what would be expected for the quality of the food and coffee.

We entered in on Mother's Day expecting a full house, but found ourselves confused when there was no one in the store.

However, I must say I absolutely love the aesthetics and delicious goodies themselves!

Ordered a Honey ginger tea and Arasi smoothie. $13.48 A staffer had us try their zero sugar ice cream, vanilla and mango. I am not a big fan of vanilla, it's too plain to me. They have an Oreo cone, that's unique. Pastries look interesting, but not appetizing though. The ginger honey tea is quite odd, not a big fan. The spices are not so good. It's got an odd taste that hits the back of my tongue and throat and makes it taste off somehow. My husband likes it less than me. This tea would have been left ad ginger and honey only. The odd concoction of spices made it really tough to drink. Like a bad medicine going down. They gave us a Boba straws and it doesn't fit inside the slot for the smoothie at all. The Vimto isn't for me, tastes like syrup to me. Smoothie would be better with mango only. We swapped drinks, since each of us could tolerate one drink over the other.
