New York has every kind of crepe you could want: Breton galettes made by a chef from Brittany, late-night crepe counters, Japanese-style crepe cones rolled around cream and fruit, and the city’s most famous layered crêpe cake. Here are eight places across Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, grouped by style.

Updated October 2026: every place below was confirmed open from its own website or recent listings. Several well-known crepe spots have closed over the past couple of years, and hours change often, so check before you go.

French and Breton crêperies

Café Triskell, Astoria (Queens)

33-04 36th Avenue · cafetriskell.co

A small, long-running crêperie run by a chef from Brittany, serving savory buckwheat galettes (ham and Swiss is a classic) and sweet crêpes such as poached pear or chocolate and almond. It’s one of the most traditional Breton options in the city. Opening days are limited, so check the hours first.

Le Gamin, Greenpoint (Brooklyn)

108 Franklin Street · legamin.com

A French café with roots going back to 1992 in New York, serving organic buckwheat galettes au sarrasin with your choice of fillings, sweet crêpes, and bistro dishes like croque monsieur and moules. It’s open daily from breakfast through dinner.

Délice & Sarrasin, West Village

178 West Houston Street · delicesarrasin.com

A family-run French restaurant with a fully plant-based menu, including buckwheat galettes and sweet crêpes such as a crêpe Suzette. It’s a rare chance to eat classic French crêpes made entirely vegan. There’s a bakery alongside.

Casual crepe shops

Creperie, Lower East Side

135 Ludlow Street · creperienyc.com

A casual counter with a very long menu of sweet and savory crepes, from Nutella and peanut butter and banana to prosciutto and mozzarella. It’s open late into the night, especially on weekends, which makes it a Lower East Side favorite after dinner or a show.

Village Creperie, East Village

445 East 9th Street · villagecreperieny.com

A small neighborhood spot with sweet and savory crepes, sandwiches and açaí bowls, including gluten-free and vegan options. The apple walnut crepe is a frequent recommendation.

Japanese-style crepes

Crepe Master, East Village

123 East 7th Street · crepemasternyc.com

A Harajuku-style crepe shop where every crepe is gluten-free. You’ll find sweet crepes rolled with cream and fruit, matcha flavors and a crêpe Suzette, plus savory options like teriyaki chicken, along with smoothies and matcha drinks.

Eight Turn Crepe, Dekalb Market Hall (Downtown Brooklyn)

445 Albee Square West · eightturncrepe.com

Japanese-style crepe cones made with a gluten-free rice flour batter, inspired by the crepe stands of Tokyo. Sweet cones are rolled around cream, fruit and cake, and there are savory options too. It’s inside Dekalb Market Hall, so it’s easy to pair with other food stalls.

Crêpe cake

Lady M Cake Boutique, several locations

Flagship: 41 East 78th Street, with boutiques at Bryant Park, Rockefeller Center, NoMad, the World Trade Center and Columbus Circle · ladym.com

The bakery that made the mille crêpes cake famous in New York: about 20 lacy crêpes layered with light cream. Besides the signature, there are seasonal and flavored versions. It’s pricey, but it’s the benchmark for crêpe cake.
