Editor's Description

La Creperie does indeed serve crepes. From hum-drum Nutella filled dough to the tangy seafood/salad crepe, main courses run the gamut. Some crepes are more successful than others, but the all wood decor, fully bar and English speaking servers make for a fine experience.

The ultimate in late night partying, one could actually go to Dragon for a couple hours, have a good night's rest and then return early the next morning to continue...no one actually does this. Cocktails are pricey but two-floor, French Concession so.. View listing »

We were 14 Europeans (from Denmark) who arrived with short notice. Everything worked. Food was delicious and the cidre excellent (and expensive). After 3 weeks on Chinese food this was a great choice. Service friendly and fast. The children (aged 10-17) loved the place. So did we. Morten, Denmark

*THIS PLACE SUCKS!!! READ BELOW!!* I don't really take reader reviews seriously, so obviously I still decided to try La Creperie out. I should have listened to the reader reviews above. Service indeed is horrible... I called to make a reservation. She asked me "what time and how many people?" I told her "6:30, 2 people." She then told me to hold... Forgetting to cover the speaking part of the telephone, she asked someone "Do you want to take this reservation? Two people" The person must have said no, and the waitress went on to lie that they had some sort of event and will not be opening for business today? It is obvious they are open and do not want to take a reservation for 2 people. If they truly were closed for business, or had an event, they would be able to have told me right when I called and asked to make a reservation. I have never written a restaurant review because its a pain in the ass to have to sign up for smartshanghai to post something. But I had to signup to warn everyone about this place. BAD SERVICE! DO NOT GO!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm usually quite easy about my food, and I don't usually write reviews on webzines, but I just had to tell you how really dreadful my experience with this place is. I arrived at 22:25 with a party of 4 last Saturday, (I'm french by the way) only to be told that there was no ham left and they closed the kitchen at 22:30 so we should go eat somewhere else! 22:25 on a bloody saturday night in the city that never sleeps and they stop serving!! Nevertheless, hiding my pride away and in great need of beloved crepes I returned the next day for a bite at 13:00. And to my surprise they were open!! lol. So we each ordered different dishes and the result was rahter poor. The food was light, not enough cheese in the crepe, service was...well.. French! and basically I wasn't happy to be paying 290RMB for it all. Let's say the place is basically... well I'm not gonna recommend it to anyone. Neither are the 3 other people that went there with me. Promise my next review will be a positive one!

Dear Malcom, We just discovered your message on Smartshanghai, and we're very sorry for what happened to you on Jun.4th. We understand your feeling. It's for sure very unpleasant when you try to make a reservation and get the answer in this way. After checking with our staff, we understand our staff did not lie to you. We were open on that day, but we closed for an exceptional staff meeting for around one hour, for which I guess the staff used the word “Event”. Your reservation time was just in the middle. It's true that the staff could have proposed you to postpone the reservation time and she probably did not use a proper way to explain you the problem. We recognize this as our fault. But please don’t think we refuse to book tables for 2. We have many tables for two people in the restaurant, and many couple enjoy it. We are sorry for this miscommunication and we will take this experience to tell our staff the way they should answer in such a situation. We hope we have the chance to have your visit in the near future, so that we can show you how much we usually care about our customers. We guarantee you a warm welcome for your visit. Sincerely Yours, La Creperie

Had lunch there on Sat. Dec 29th, and loved it. I had read a few negative reviews so I was a bit skeptical, but it turned out great. I had the Reblochon crepes (a strong smelling french cheese), and it was even stinkier than I was expected, which I loved (I am french :D). The savory crepe was so good that I had to have a sweet one. I tried the salted butter caramel one and it was great. The crepe spring roll is a fun appetizer, the spicy chicken one was very good (quite spicy, make sure you like it hot). Price for 2 (1 spring roll appetizer, 2 crepes each and 1 bottle of cider): 400rmb.

I came here with some friends and all of us were so disapointed by the quality, service and the price. All of our crèpes were burnt, and bad taste in the mouth. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone. By the way i love bretagne ! :)

I had a salad crepe with a glass of white wine and a sweet crepe with apples drinking a calvados !! If you have the taste of life...you cannot lose them
