The pelmeni and borsch were hearty, flavourful and delicious, not to mention super filling. I think they’ll get a lot more people coming in if the atmosphere was more inviting. Can’t wait to try out their savoury options too.

Normally I don’t write review but this place is so underrated. I ordered the banana nutella crêpe with a scoop of ice cream and it was super yummy. In the past I also tried their savoury crêpe (the mushroom chicken cream) and the borsch soup — both were really yummy. Service is fast and friendly. Highly recommend!

Visited Crepes Club again, this time I ordered the crêpe with salmon and cheese in it, and my boyfriend ordered the mushroom and chicken crêpe. We also had a borcht to share. It was nice that this place was pretty empty because we were served faster this time.
Never had borcht before and hated beets, but when I tried the borcht, it was so flavourful and delicious. I could barely taste the dirt taste of beets. Would have it again.
The salmon crêpe had a sweet sauce on it and I wasn’t a big fan of that. It was also less flavourful than the mushroom one I had last time. Still a decent crêpe though.
Boyfriend’s mushroom chicken was flavourful but the chicken was really tough and bland. I thought it was going to be grilled chicken but it seemed like it was the chicken they used for boiling stock. You’re better off getting the mushroom crêpe without the chicken.
Still good food, still would come back.

In the mood for crepes, I came in here this week. I was pleasantly surprised that it serves more than just crepes. It’s also nice that there’s a place near work that I can go to for something other than pub food, fast food, or Asian food.
I ordered a mushroom crêpe and a coke. The mushroom crêpe was OK. Surprisingly though, I guess no one gets water or anything to drink unless they order it. Though, I didn’t get the coke that I ordered. That’s ok because I didn’t get charged for it; but I’m somewhat accustomed to having something to drink while I eat.
There were two other tables with customers. There seemed to be one person working the front of the restaurant. I’m not sure if he was helping in the back as well. I think this impacted the service.

Service was great and a generous amount of fruits come with the crêpe but it could have used a bit more ice cream and whipped cream!

Read the good reviews and thought I would brave the cold to walk here tonight because I was really craving crepes. However, reached there before 9pm and everything was already closed down despite saying on the door itself it was open till 10pm. There was No sign stating that it would be closing early today or that it was closed on thursday.
Can’t say anything for the food obviously but I’d rather go to a more dependable place. One That’s actually open when it says it is.

Probably the best crepes I’ve ever had. I always get the Egg, Bacon, Tomatoes, Cheese one and my girlfriend gets the Nutella, Banana, Fresh Strawberries and whipped cream. They taste amazing, and the amount of food you get for the price is unreal — for a crêpe under $ 10, it can easily fill you up for two meals, or a meal and a half.

I am not a huge fan of sweet crepes. I find the over use of icing sugar and chocolate tiring. That’s why it was so nice to find this place. Their savoury crepes are to die for. The cottage cheese is a great addition to some of the more savoury and safisticated crepes. The salmon, cottage cheese with garlic and herbs is by far one of the best light lunches I have ever had. Now that’s not to say that the sweet crepes aren’t good too. I would recommend this place if you are into crepes and European food.

I feel like I’m throwing out 5 stars all the time now, but I have no reason not to.
Came in at a completely unassuming time of 1:30 and had the Borscht and the Pelmeni. They were both awesome.
The Borscht stock you could tell was simmered well as there was a lot of flavour, and coupled with garlic and whatever other spices they put in there, it was very enjoyable. I come from a family that makes Borscht and tasted like gramma would make.
As for the Pelmeni, these things were unlike anything I’ve ate before. Part shanghai soup dumpling, part pirogi, looks like a tortellini, served in an urn-like dish, and comes with a massive amount of sour cream on the side.
These dumplings were really good. You bite into them and there is some sort of broth that comes out, and the minced meat is flavourful, and full of garlic. So if you don’t want some wicked garlic breath after then that may be your only reservation; otherwise you gotta try these at least once in your life. The sour cream was mild and fresh tasting, and went perfect together. The amount of dumplings you get too will be more than enough for 1 person.
Other reviews have commented on the atmosphere and the décor and whatever, but I don’t have much of an opinion on there because I came for the eastern european food, and I left satisfied.
The timing and situation worked out to give this place 5 stars for the food.

This is a Ukranian crêpe restaurant which is a stone’s throw from the UofT campus (st george end). Their traditional soup, Borscht, is delicious and the crepes come out in generous portions with rich flavors.
Tip: Their garlic bread is par excellence
The service was fast and the pricing was just right. This is a great place for a weekday lunch.

It’s great to have a place that serves Ukrainian food in the downtown core. We tried the borsch, pelmeni and Olivye Salad. I liked that they have a vegetarian menu too since I try to limit my meat intake. I will definitely come back whenever I’m feeling home sick.

I went yesterday for Nuit Blanche with a friend of mine. Actually, we tried to go in. It was 9:45pm and apparently this place is open until 11pm on Saturdays. The waiter told us that they were closed when we went in at 9:45pm. What a letdown! You just lost 2 potential customers who will most likely never try to go eat there again. It’s a pity cause I was looking forward to checking it out but the really bad customer service on the part of that waiter for lying to us really just made all the enthusiasm for it disappear! I will definitely check out other crêpe places in the area, but not CrepesClub, thanks for NOTHING!

This place is great for the Eastern European food. Get «kvas» and «pelmeni», thank me later.

Dropped by last night with my girlfriend, really surprised at how little business they had, especially for a dessert place, downtown, on a Friday night. Double especially since it’s right next to Kinton Ramen, which is always packed and I would expect have at least a handful of customers hankering for dessert after their meal there. At first we thought it was closed because literally no one was in there, but then a waiter came to the door and told us it was open, so we headed inside.
They have a big TV in the window showing someone making a crêpe. They have a patio out front, decently sized and cute, but nothing to write home about. Inside was well-lit and nice enough, but again lacking in atmosphere. The only thing that gave it any sort of ambiance were the little candles on the tables inside, a nice and welcome touch. They had music playing as well, but it tended to go from a mellow, soft jazz mix and abruptly switch to Top 40 dance/hip hop, which was a little strange. Generally, the whole place felt pretty empty, and it definitely wasn’t just because we were the only ones there.
The service was good and attentive. There was only one waiter there, but that was probably because of the lack of customers.
Food wise, the menu has a great selection. Sweet and savory crepes alike, complete with several items in both categories that weren’t crepes. A number of soups, fries, milkshakes, etc. A classic array of soft drinks and juice, should your palette feel the need.
My girlfriend had the lemon and sugar crêpe, which she said was quote good. Her crêpe was sizeable; I had the chicken and dumping soup, which was good, but not the best soup I’ve ever had. I found the soup to be a little smaller than anticipated given the ~$ 9 pricetag. The presentation for both items was fantastic and lovely to look at, which only makes the lack of aesthetic attention paid to the rest of the restaurant confusing.
Overall, I really think décor is this place’s only problem. That sounds nitpicky, but it would honestly lift the feel of the space by a lot, and make it way more welcoming. Other than that, I liked this place and I would probably come back.

wish i could give this place more stars for their great service
but the dark chocolate & strawberries crêpe was not good
crêpe itself had a thick batter so it was rubbery to chew on
the strawberries were also sour
i left half the plate unfinished
maybe i came on an off day since the other reviews are so high

We had some warm drinks, and a crêpe.
Crêpe was good and size of the crêpe was large, but they were pretty scarce with the supporting ingredients. I think we were the only customers during our stay, so they could have been more generous. Reading the reviews here, maybe we were an exception.
Their coffee is standard, nothing outstanding. The specialty drinks come out pretty, like in that one picture someone posted here. No special shapes or anything though.
Great service. Interior and furniture is standard mid-high class café, and clean.
I would not make an effort to come back here. If I am in the area, I would try another place.
If you are a crêpe lover though, you might want to test this place out.

‘Twas one nice sunny day at the start of spring– I was hungry and desperately searching for late lunch at 3pm. I saw Crepes Club and my gustatory instincts said oh yes yes yes! From the outside I thought it was just a small café, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was actually spacious inside. Decors are minimal but charming and without unnecessary clutter. On my table was just a little mason jar with cheery fresh flowers, and a small pretty candle. I appreciate small details like these and it made me happy even prior to getting fed. I noticed though, that the music was a bit off that time I was there. They were playing Lady Gaga songs when I would much rather want to hear something more relaxing like jazz or classics, or perhaps some of those smooth French songs to go with crepes? Then again maybe I’m just an old soul when it comes to music and besides, it’s the food that matters. So there I was, once again confronted with a choice between sweet and savoury… The time being 3pm, I figured I might as well have an afternoon snack and chose the strawberry, banana, and Nutella crêpe with a single shot café americano. My order came within reasonable time– not overly slow but not too quick either as to wonder about its freshness. It was a feast for the eyes and I had to admire it for a few seconds before digging in. It was a bit too heavy for me though, and a bit too much Nutella– so much so that I didn’t need sugar in my coffee. I don’t know if that’s a plus or minus factor, but one thing’s for sure: they don’t scrimp on ingredients and they make their crepes with a lot of love. I think I may have gained 2 pounds after coming here but I have no regrets. Next time I want to try a simple lemon and sugar crêpe, or perhaps one of the savoury options. Better yet, I’m bringing my husband along to share with!

Came into CrepesClub for a quick dessert run. I was really excited to see a crêpe location so close to the UofT campus! I ordered the strawberry, banana and nutella crêpe which was good, with my only criticism being that there was a bit too much nutella for my taste (though I’m sure others may be totally content with it). For my palette though, the nutella made it to sweet and made it tiring to eat ’cause everything was sticking to my mouth. I did like the fact that my crêpe was made to order!
I also wish the ambiance of the place can be a bit brighter. We came during lunch time, but the lights were still relatively dim, and since we were the only table it made things just a bit uncomfortable. Even worse when heading down to the bathroom where the stairway and bathroom itself felt kind of creepy.
However from the looks of the savoury crepes and other European dishes CrepesClub offers, my interest is definitely piqued and I hope to come back another day to try out their lunch menu and update my review ;)

One or the best crêpe place we have tried in Toronto. Don’t let the front and interior deceive you. Once you’re in and plate is serving you’ll be surprised by how great the food is made. I just wish they would invest the decoration a bit more an ad gain more business
