“Great lunch options”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

I had a spinach-mushroom-cheese crepe with a side salad that was amazing. Very tasty, fresh, and cooked perfectly. I sat outside on the patio and there are inside tables as well. Prices weren't too bad - under $10 for most breakfast and lunch items and generous portions.

“I could eat here every day--”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 1, 2012

I'm glad that I was traveling for work and that Crema is not in my hometown because I would weigh a few hundred pounds. I savored every mouthful of the crepes, the incredible roasted potatoes....and the coffee was good too. Someone with more restraint could choose from much healthier selections. Great breakfasts are a treat (eggs bene, crepes, omelettes) and I would choose Crema as one of the best breakfast/lunch places I've ever visited. The best part is you can walk it off on the long beach after!

“Crepes well worth the wait!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 17, 2012

Everything I've had here is good, but the exceptional crepes prompted me to write a review. They are delicate, and just a little crispy. Delicious variety of fillings, even option to create your own combination of ingredients. You gotta try these!

“Would drive here just for the Crepes!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 13, 2012

We usually get a variety of crepes, although 1.5 is all we can eat. Very generous portions of fresh side salad and savory fillings. You can get a special crepe from the menu, or create your own. Follow up with a Nutella Banana Crepe, and you will want that as a dessert after any meal. I also love their Iced Green Tea Latte. Kids crepes are also larger than expected.
Outside seating under umbrellas, or a few inside tables as well. Gets pretty busy with a 20 min wait Sunday mornings, but definitely worth the wait.
