I really want to like this place more, the pastries were amazing. However, they don't accept credit cards. I was in just to visit the bakery on Sunday morning, it was a packed house, I had no cash. Of course they do have an ATM in the lobby, but why should I have to pay even more to eat here? They seem busy enough to handle the 2% or less credit card fees they would pay to accept them. In this day in age, I simply find it rude for busy businesses not to accept all forms of payment. It should be considered a cost of doing business, plain and simple.

I must say I was disappointed to see that this place only has 3 stars. For a place that isn't so good we had to wait 30 minutes for a table and the house was packed! We all must have bad taste buds. Haha Well worth the wait!!! Great place to come and get breakfast or delicious desserts!

We came for breakfast - it was Mom's birthday! It was good, and the staff was friendly. Between the 3 of us, it was $54, though. All we had to drink was coffee (GOOD coffee - pot on table, a nice touch!) and an entree. That's it. DO the math. The food was pretty, the omlettes large, and the choices varied enough. No low carb option though. Or light. I did decide on a "GALETTES savory paper thin organic buckwheat crêpe" with about 3/4 cup filling, "Californian: avocado, cream cheese, black olives, tomato, scallion $11.00" What is worth the money there?

MMMMM! I relish La Creperie as an example of Frenchness in Northern Colorado. I'm not a sweets person, but I come for the galettes and have never gone wrong. The service is usually about average. Be warned that folks come here to ENJOY breakfast, and that may mean sitting with coffee 1/2 hour after they've finished eating. The adjoining sweet shop/bakery can help you placate your wife/girlfriend if you've managed to piss them off. Many of the disparaging comments about this place seem to come from the folks who can't be bothered to plan for a 30-second stop at an ATM on the way in. I don't think you CAN make these types of folks happy.

I haven't eaten in the restaurant, but I am a huge fan of the bakery side. The kouign-amann is our favorite, followed closely by the salted caramel macaroons. The eclairs, fruit tarts and nutella beignets are all wonderful. It can get pricey, but for the quality it's worth it. The people who work the counter are always very friendly and helpful.

One star for decent service, one star for a good croissant. The pastry counter looked good and picked up a few macaroons to bring home. This place may make it as a bakery, but I won't be back for breakfast because: 1. They only accept cash or checks. It's 2014. C'mon. 2. Our server said that they "can't" soft boil eggs. Really? "Can't" put an egg in a pan of simmering water for 4 minutes? 3. Crepes were all over done - crispy and black on the bottom. I was disappointed because I really wanted to like this place.

Love this place. Delicious fresh, everything I have had has been good and service has always been great.

Good things: Almond croissant Croissant Nutella and banana crepe Turkey on baguette and croissant Sunny side egg sandwich Gave our coffee for free, see below Bad things: Plastic coffee cups Noisy Missing salad dressing in salads Milk in the little containers, from a French bakery you would expect nicer, plus it had gone bad H

***this review is for the bakery only*** Probably the best french macarons in Colorado. Certainly you cannot beat the price vs how big and yummy the macarons are. And the selection of macarons is endless. I also tried other items from the bakery section, and was never disappointed. A must place to visit for baked goods addicts like me. The cash only model is frustrating. While they do have an ATM inside, none wants to pay the withdrawal fees. I do not tend to carry any cash on me at all, and always forget that the bakery does not accept cash.

Lunch time with a girl friend and we walked here from CSU. We were quickly seated on the patio and even though it was nearly closing time were treated with great service the entire time. I had french onion soup - great, not too salty and good cheese ratio. I also had the lemon crepe and this was very good and I rounded out with a chocolate eclair which was fabulous slightly warm. My friend had a savory crepe and an eclair and also enjoyed both. Not too expensive, good food, great bakery - thankfully I don't live too close or I'd be going daily!

Enjoyed the Crepes Beignet with creamed spinach, swiss cheese, tomatoes and ham! Have enjoyed anything served so far and the coffee is great! Don't forget to visit the bakery on your way out! Yum!

The French chefs here make the best croissants and pastries I've had outside of France! You can sit down for a full breakfast, brunch, or lunch, or just go straight to the take out counter for bread and pastries. The service can be a little slow and disorganized (we've had incorrect orders and charges a few times) and they won't split checks, but overall the food and atmosphere is great.

I went to visit a good friend in Fort Collins in July. We were running errands and thought we deserved some dessert after walking around in the heat. So we ordered a sweet crepe and some macaroons from the bakery. We waited quite a bit for some service. We were happy to see the giant crepe to come out but were disappointed in the way it tasted. We both agreed that we have had better from the one at Pismo Beach and San Francisco. I was even more disappointed from the macaroons because I had hyped up what macaroons were to my friend that's never had one. Overall, we were not impressed with their dessert options.

Our favorite spot on Sunday mornings. The breakfast menu is great. We really enjoy the brioche. But, our all time favorites are the pastries. The Kouign amann, the Croissants and the Pain au chocolat are the best in our book.

The food is good, but one star for not taking credit cards. A racket for the ATM company in the lobby I guess. When it works. When it doesn't, you have to walk across the street to the 7-11 to pay your bill. I feel like I'm buying drugs. Wait. Maybe that's why they only take cash. They are laundering money for Walter White.
(1)Sarah B.
Love this place. Service is a tad slow but they are small and get packed. Food is excellent! I have been here many times and I am always impressed. This is my go to place for out of town guests. One thing- bring cash. They don't take credit or debit cards. They do have an ATM in the restaurant in case you forget cash.

Everything is so delicious. I just love the atmosphere of this cafe-bakery with its colorful paintings, displays, and cute decorations. I've never been to France but I imagine this is what it would be like, a busy corner cafe with character and great food. We were first drawn to the bakery, and really loved their recommended cinnamon nut roll. Then we tried their breakfast-brunch selections and it was also amazing. This time, he got the French toast croissant and I got the pancake crepe. Their presentation is so pretty I can't help take pictures of it. So far, our wait times have been under 15 minutes too, not bad really. So far this is my favorite bakery and cafe in the area. Just remember to bring cash or check!

This place is so cute, a great menu, and very attentive and friendly staff; so why 2 stars you ask. Well the stars are for the decor, and staff. The food was very bland, and while I've never been to France I'm pretty sure they use salt, and seasonings there. I had the Enzo's Fav, which is a roasted (bland)!chicken and (bland) mushroom sandwich with lettuce, and mustard sauce (aka, watered down mayo, with no flavor). Thankfully I remembered seeing a Pablano sauce on the menu, and requested a side to see if that tasted of anything other than air. It was much better than anything else, except I had to share it with rest of my table, because their sandwich "avocado cream cheese" was equally bland. This place would be a great dining experience if the food had flavor. What a bummer!!

I enjoyed visiting La Creperie last week. My parents who were from out of state enjoyed visiting La Creperie, especially the bakery side. We ordered about $60 worth of treats. However, I do have one complaint...on the bakery side you either sit at the counter or outdoor seating. There is not enough seating on the bakery side. There was not an available table outside on the patio when we were there, so I asked the waitress over in the restaurant if we could sit at one of the booths, order drinks from them and snack on our treats we bought from the bakery side. She said "no". She said it was only for folks wanting to order a meal. La Creperie you need to improve your seating and stopping turning folks away who want to sit over in the restaurant area. I should be able to sit over there even if I'am ordering something, whether it's a food item or drink.

Update: Well, knocking them down to one star now - there was a public discussion yesterday on a Facebook page about this place, and the owner of this restaurant, ignoring everyone's valid concerns, choose to instead jump into the conversation with a very poorly written, unprofessional and childish outburst against one tiny comment made about whether or not they actually donate their would-be card fees. This was an opportunity for them to write up their own explanation for why they don't use cards, what their business model is, apologize for any poor service, etc. - instead we got a teenage-text-message-esque rant complete with a dozen exclamation points. If that's how they choose to publicly promote their business, I choose to have no more business with them. Fin... Original review: I've been on a 3-star review roll lately here on Yelp.... Huh. Well, I just can't justify give La Crepe any higher for now. This is another of those places I really really want to love, but just can't. Problem 1: I don't carry cash, and this place does not take cards (though they are happy to provide an ATM w/ fee charge by the door... plus your bank's fee... worked out to be about $3.50 for me last time. Ugh.). Can't tell you how many more times I would come here - except as I'm driving by I realize I don't have cash and don't want to deal with the hassle of getting cash elsewhere and coming back, or dealing with the cost of using their ATM. The macaroons are amazing, and irresistible if I'm standing in front of the bakery display with cash in hand - but I've learned it's also fairly easy to drive on by with the promise of "another time maybe"... Ok, ok, #firstworldproblems for sure. But still a problem. And that means they don't get my business very much. They seem busy though, so I guess other people still carry cash or don't mind. Problem 2: When I have eaten here, the prices are high, the food is of varied quality, and the service has been lousy. Kind of like France! Haha! Seriously though, I took a friend out for breakfast here for her birthday, we spent close to $50-55. Plus the ATM fee. Argh. And while the crepes and galletes can be amazing, they can also be "meh", dry or unflavorful (or, in the case of the last time I went, so oversoaked in liquored sauce that it was basically an alcoholic soggy mess). The macaroons are the only thing that I have consistently experienced as amazing, and it's true, I do dream of them sometimes. But for me, I will continue to get my French fix by making a day of it and driving down to Longmont to go to the wonderful Cheese Importers shop and restaurant -- equally fun ambience and family-run feel, delicious French onion soup, fantastic cheese refrigerator (the size of a shop itself! And with free samples!) and a European-style shop that will keep you busy for an hour at least just looking around. And impulsively buying things. With your card. ;)

I've always had an amazing experience here- the staff is very friendly and the while the service is sometimes slow it's because this place is always packed! Food is delicious and the bakery items are to die for! One of the best restaurants in Fort Collins but remember to always bring cash as they don't take cards!

Great variety and gluten free options!!! I love the gluten free organic buckwheat galette with smoked sausages and 4 cheeses and herbs de provence - super yummy :-)
