★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Caden D. · Feb 2026

Absolutely not for me. I’d rate it 2/10 at best. Another $20 wasted. The food was bland, the service was nonexistent, and the atmosphere was mediocre. The prices were outrageous—$20 for what? I can go to East Cuisine, get great service, flavorful food, and be full for $10. This place might be okay for alcoholic drinks, but that’s it. The tea was over-brewed and burnt. Have the owners even tasted this food? It’s horrendous. What happened to putting effort into making food taste good? I wouldn’t be surprised if this place closes soon. The crepe was dry, chicken way overcooked, there was no cream or sauce?! What are yall doing? Good luck.

I was there off season, mid-week, so it was very quiet. Located in a repurposed commercial laundry from the last century, it is a funky, but welcoming location. Food selection is a bit different ("no fried food, no seafood, our specialty is crepes" per the personable outgoing owner). On the owner's advice, I ordered the Parisian crepe (chicken, apple, onion, brie, Dijon cream sauce). Memories of Normandy! It was delicious! Can't wait to return on a Saturday evening, when they also have acoustic music.

What a great find for us! Heading to Morehead from a few hours out we wanted to break up the drive for a bit and grab a bite, with our doggo in tow, so we found this spot on Google Maps and it was a great fit! Shawn, the owner, personally welcomed (all three) of us. Our lineup included a rose on tap, a canned porter, and three (very reasonably priced) bites from the all-day menu. We could not be more pleased with our quick visit and look forward to visiting again soon when we are back for a longer session.

From the outside, it looks like any other unassuming cafe. Inside is a spacious place with several nooks of sofaa, perfect for teleworking. I'm always on the lookout for one around here. Tasty smoked salmon pasta and their version of shepherds pie. Will try the crepes next time.

★★★★★ 5.0 Cecillia Berger · Aug 2025

If you want to satisfy your crepe fix look no further! The whole vibe of this place is quant and charming. The staff is very attentive. We had the love potion crepe and the Mediterranean with tofu. Very nice to have vegetarian friendly savory options. We look forward to visiting again.
