Portland Street Creperie

welcoming environment, clean area, amazing food & super friendly/pretty girl at the counter<3 i ordered the chicken queso crepe and it was one of the best things i've ever eaten. if i wasn't just visiting from ontario, i'd be coming here daily! will definitely be returning here whenever i visit NS next:)

Amazing service and delicious crepes! Our group had three savoury crepes and they very kindly split a dessert crepe three ways for us, perfect sunny day walkabout lunch. The gluten free buckwheat crepes were also yum, spoken as a regular gluten-eater. Would recommend!

We stopped in here on an utter whim and were very pleased we did so. Big, lovely crepes with big lovely fillings! We had the Marais and Eat Your Veggies. Both were very satisfying and delicious, so out of sheer greed, we split a Queen as well. Super good. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful, and I am attaching the cat video, as promised. This is a newish business in Dartmouth, and they deserve all the best!

Crepes are one of the few things that can actually get me out of the house, and today was no exception. We had “The King” and “The Queen” – the perfect breakfast/lunch crepes loaded with eggs, bacon, veggies, and cheese. Absolutely delicious 🤤 But of course, I couldn’t stop there. A sweet crepe was a must, so I went for a classic Nutella with banana, and wow… just perfect.

My mother and I went for crepes as they opened on a Monday morning, and we were the only people there aside from the staff, so we perhaps received a little more attention than usual. We ordered the chicken queso and the le marais and enjoyed both.

Would Eat Again, Even If It’s Not Chimichangas!!!!! Alright, buckle up, kids. I walked into Portland Street Crêperie expecting deep-fried, cheese-smothered, grease-dripping chimichangas. I even prepped my arteries for battle. But plot twist—this place sells crêpes. Which are basically chimichangas’ sophisticated, thin, fancy-pants cousins. At first, I was devastated. Heartbroken. Betrayed, even. I was ready to give this place one star out of pure, petty spite. But then I took a bite… and let me tell you, these crêpes are so good, they almost made me monogamous. Also, I wear red so no one sees me spill my food, which is lucky because the raspberry crêpe I inhaled looked like a crime scene. That sucker didn’t stand a chance. I devoured it with the same enthusiasm I usually reserve for taking down bad guys and avoiding my own movie sequels. Bonus: Wolverine was there. Yeah, you heard me. Ol’ Claws himself. Probably showed up because he thought the place served raw meat and cigars. But he stuck around, which means these crêpes pass the Wolverine Rage Test™. So yeah, 5 stars. No chimichangas, but still worth the trip. Will I be back? Oh, abso-freakin-lutely. Will I still wear red? Obviously. I spill a lot.

This is a must try place. The crepes are amazing but the staff are also so incredibly kind. I highly recommend the Ham and Swiss crepe!

Delicious sweet and savoury crepes that the whole family enjoyed. The staff are super nice and make sure that your food is on the table within a few minutes. Will definitely be back!

Dine-in or outside tables available. Busy place Sunday at 12pm. Had to wait over 20min for this crepe. super fresh and tasty. Mushrooms are so flavorful and lots of brie cheese.

Six of us ordered a crepe each. I ordered ham and Swiss crepe ($9). The orders are ready in 8 mins. It is a very simple crepe and it tasted just as simple: ham, cheese, Dijon sauce. The price is a tad high for such simplicity. Overall: good to restore energy, but not that amazing.

Always amazing food and friendly staff! Really affordable prices for the size of crepe you get! One of my favourite spots in Dartmouth!

Always delicious, fast and friendly service, and great prices. A fav for brunch! Options for just about anyone.

Amazing! Very tasty and lots of creative crepes! Would love to have them a bit more full :) Had tried the; non matin, fruit salsa, pear & goat cheese. Missed out on the bubble ice creams this summer but looking forward to it! Went again: got the mushroom, Brie and garlic aioli - very full from it! It was stacked. Definitely need to love mushrooms for this one.

When you're living the car-free lifestyle (alas, not care-free) and live in central Halifax, it's a bit of an effort to make your way over to Dartmouth to try out the latest and greatest spots. However, with my generous work schedule, I was able to make my way across the harbour, via ferry of course, to try out one of downtown Dartmouth's entrepreneurial pioneers - Portland Street Creperie. Arriving slightly after the lunch rush, there were just a couple tables occupied in their relatively small space, with seating that tops out around 15. The design is pretty simple, with an open crepe-prep area behind a counter made of re-purposed wood, and other touches that give it a clean, modern feel that isn't overdone. Their menu consists of a few sweet, and a few savoury crepes that are posted on the wall, and frequently change. While their donair crepe was very tempting, I wanted to keep things relatively simple, so I got their honeycomb crepe. Coming with waffle bits and local honey wrapped up in a pliable crepe, it was a carb-wrapped-in-carb Siren song that couldn't be resisted. After a couple other crepes were cranked out, mine was soon ready for pick up at the counter. Lightly dusted with icing sugar and with just a hint of browning in spots, it was a tasty looking plate. The crepe itself was just the right level of pliable and not too sweet despite what was in/on it. The waffle bits were a cute idea, but were a tad on the dry side. They were however great for soaking up the honey that added a subtle flavour to the blank canvasses of the crepe and waffle bits. While I'm more for the airiness of a good pancake or full-on waffle, I appreciate what you can do with crepes and what PSC is doing with them and for the neighbourhood.

While across the harbour last weekend for the Dartmouth Makers Christmas Market, Dylan and I decided we could no longer resist the lure of Portland Street Creperie. We were strong for so long...but no longer. As it was a beautiful Saturday afternoon, the Creperie was hopping. We lucked out to get a table inside, but they still had their patio out too - and because it was so nice out there were people sitting there too. I need to make a mention of how delightful all the staff are. The gentleman who greeted us at the counter chatted with us while we decided on what to have (there are so many delicious choices!) and it didn't feel like small talk - it felt like an actual conversation with someone who cared, y'know? Not forced at all. It definitely made us feel great, and as if we were with friends. Now we both went for savory options - I had the bon matin and Dylan had the ham and swiss. OH MY GOD YALL. It was like a party of delicious in my mouth. I am not exaggerating much when I say that I almost fell of my chair when I took the first bite. SO FREAKING GOOD. Dylan was just as happy with his ham and swiss...but I am still dreaming of the garlic aioli on the bon matin. It's not going to be long before we're back, I think...

It was a lucky coincidence that we actually ended up going there. We wanted to eat somewhere else originally but that place had issues with the kitchen and this was the 2nd closest we could find. They have a nice selection of crepes with what seemed like a very good combination of ingredients. Seating is a bit limited, but it wasn't packed anyways. I tried one of their savory crepes and part of a sweet one. What I really like about Portland Street Creperie is that they put just enough fillings so the crepes don't feel too heavy. The pancake mix they use also gives a very nice texture. It was a really enjoyable meal to have. The service is friendly. Their coffee isn't the strongest but good still. I'll definitely go back again if I'm in the area.

The location is small and cozy, very little seating, and even limited standing room. But, none of that matters. I've never eaten in, I've always gotten my crepes to go. Let me tell you, they travel well! My advice: get the Bon Matin. It's multi-levels of yum! One crepe is more filling then you'd think. The garlic aioli is life. The mushroom crepe also has the same delicious garlic aioli! I've also tried the donair crepe, which I was excited for, but not in love with. It was tasty, but I found it had too little meat & too much donair sauce.

Portland Street Creperie was a great find! My husband and I were leaving the Halifax area to head north and needed a breakfast spot. You can't go wrong with crepes! I got the fruit salsa, added Nutella and my husband got the Cinnamon Girl. Both were some of the better crepes we've had. They also had some great local coffee!

So simple yet so delicious and the staff are so kind. We got The Jill, The Cinnamon Girl and the Caramel and I don't think I could pick a favourite.

Great place! Going again asap! The crepes are done well a d not soggy and chewy like Cora's

Crepes are delicious. If you didn't know. But they're not something I really foresee myself mastering in the kitchen. So when I heard that a creperie was opening up just a short distance from my home? Beyond excited. And this place lived up to my hopes and dreams. If you've never had one before, crepes are a fairly simple dish (that, yeah, you can spice up a bit) that give you that nice, satisfied fullness that you want. And the ... crepe-preparers? Crepists? ... The people who work here making the crepes make delicious ones. There's quite a range so you should be able to find something in your palette. Added benefit: you can choose between sweet and savoury crepes! The venue is nice but compact. Thankfully most people seem to respect that it's busy and head out after they've finished enjoying their meal. I admit that the first time I went in, I was a bit confused by the layout ("Where do I order? Where does garbage go?") but it's not that big a deal, you'll figure it out. Just look at the menu, make your decision, and head to register. A great addition to downtown Dartmouth.

Sunday brunch fairly busy. The crepes are pretty good nice selection. Not too many places to sit but it's nice to watch them cook. I had a ham and Swiss and it was solid.

2017 is the year that I am determined to get to know Dartmouth restaurants better. One of the places that I'd been meaning to check out, and that I kept hearing about, is Portland Street Creperie. Last week my sidekick (3 month old son) and I met up with a friend for lunch there. It's a little place, but it's awesome. We were greeted with smiles from the gentleman behind the counter, and discussed our options at a little table while other patrons weighed in. I love that they have the option for savoury or sweet crêpes. For lunch, I was feeling savoury so I opted for the mushroom. In the freshly made crêpe there were a couple kinds of local mushrooms, as well as brie and a delicious aioli. I also grabbed a cup of tea. My grand total, including tip, was under $10. And it was delicious. One of the best crepes I've ever had, hands down. Everything was fresh, the atmosphere was awesome, and the people were friendly. We enjoyed our crepesand stayed to chat for over an hour. Can't wait to go back and try one of the other delicious options!

Amazing crepes and for an affordable price. My family and I tried 5 different flavours and they were all fantastic.

There are a number of things this little gem of a restaurant has going for it. First it is in a neighborhood in the city that is filling up with wonderful shops, restaurants and watering holes. Along with some wonderful parks, the Dartmouth Commons and the Waterfront park. The restaurant itself is small but comfortable if you can get a seat, but if you can't it is a perfect opportunity to take a Crepe to the waterfront and enjoy the views. The food is wonderful, a mix of both savory and sweet. Stop for a light bite or some wonderful dessert, pretty much covers all of your bases. Plus the food is very reasonably priced and delicious.. If you live in Dartmouth walk on down and savour the delicious treats. But don't let living in Halifax stop you, a ferry ride across the harbour is only 10 min and worth the trip.

I read about this place on The Coast website, and had a craving for something different today. Holy Smokes its was tasty! Me and my honey ordered two Ham and Swiss crepes, one Classic Nutella crepe, and two coffees. I'm a little fussy about my coffee and it was great. The Ham and Swiss crepes were delivered quickly. I usually devour my food but I took my time with this, it was soooo good. The ham in the crepe was moist , flavourful and in large flakes. The Classic Nutella was a wonderful way to finish off the meal. The place was clean and tidy, the staff was friendly and engaging, and the restaurant had an overall nice feel to it. I came to the Portland Street Creperie today hoping for a tasty meal, I wasn't expecting to be as impressed as much as I was today!

The white woman who made and handed me my order was nice while their Asian looking staff dealt with me like I don't speak nor understood english, plleeease!

I don't want to say anything. I don't want this gem to become overrun and have the prices go up because it's perfect as it is. I've already said too much. I'll leave you with three words: Maple + bacon + crepe.

Me and my gf discovered this wonderful place this past winter and have been going there repeatedly. The owner and the staff are terrific (he remembered who we were after one visit -- which is very impressive since this place gets a lot of traffic), they're very jovial and it's got a very inviting atmosphere. The food is delicious. She prefers the sweeter stuff on the menu while I'm hung up on the mushroom and brie crepe with garlic aioli sauce (the batter is faintly sweet and the bitter/garlic offsets this... look for a crepe with bacon in it, you won't regret that combo!). Bitter or sweet, we both leave happy. The crepes are very affordable ($6-7 per crepe) and if you're a glutton like we are, this encourages you to share a desert crepe after. We go down there for lunch dates. We've always loved it and we'll definitely be going back there again!

Been wanting to try this place for awhile now and was not disappointed. So yummy and well priced. The staff was very friendly and great also. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could!! :)

Went here as I found about it on Twitter. Me & my husband tried the fruit salsa, the crepre was so bloody good, not too sweet & not too tart but just right. The price was right too with the food, sodas & tip it came to about 20.00 bucks. Will be back again for sure!!!!!!!!!

If I could give it 10 stars I would. My fiance and I go here at least 2 times a month and it is always perfection. Prices are right, coffee is good

Might have to go back to the basics and start by cooking the batter long enough so you don't have to proudly annonce 'here you go buddy" while offering two half way cooked crepes

Do you remember when you had those growing pains in your leg as a teenager? You were able to fall asleep at some point but it was a little uncomfortable. This sums up Portland Street Creperie in its teenage glory here. Formerly the Midday Bistro and a few forgettable other tenants (I can remember having corn sushi here at some point), the space in long on minimalism. The menu is simple, with a dozen or so crepes to choose from, most ranging around 6 bucks tops. Three crepe hot plates were on the go as I walked in 10 minutes after their 830 opening, as the spot quickly swelled with enthusiastic diners. Reclaimed wood and exposed bricks highlighted very simple bistro style tables and chairs. These sparse amenities have worked in keeping a high value product available at a reasonable price. The owner (I assume) enthusiastically encouraged the man at the crepe plate as he made two different orders. "A thing of beauty", he said as he took our orders. Among the sweet and savoury choices on the menu are vegetarian choices and classic pairings. I opted for the ham and cheese with dijon. A nice blend of Oultons ham, it was a perfectly salty foil to the gooey mozza style cheese. My lovely fiance had the candied bacon and walnut crepe, again using Oulton's famous smoked bacon. The candied bacon missed the mark entirely here. The spirit of the recipe is a low heat treatment when combined with the brown sugar gives it a slightly jerky texture. Unfortunately, the bacon was more in the spirit of a greasy spoon diner, and my partner wasn't too keen on the residual fat which should have rendered down. The walnuts were very nice, and the crepes themselves were cooked to perfection. They serve Zane's great anchored coffee, but it was foiled by an almost freezing bottle of cream which deep sixed the cup. With two crepes, a Perrier, two coffees, tax and tip came to 21.50, a steal. Kudos for opening on Portland Street. The space is sparse, the amenities pedestrian (plastic forks and paper plates), but the place has a heart. These people are working hard to bring a new product to the masses, and the families and lineup out the door showed that Dartmouth is ready for you. Tighten up a few things going forward, and you'll turn every Whiskey's Ten Penny swilling customer into a defacto Frenchman. I'll be telling mon amis.

Another great food place in downtown Dartmouth. I love it. The breakfast crepe was nice and tasty. Friendly staff, who make crepes at lightning speed. It's quite a site. Even when I don't have time for a crepe, I'll often swing by just for coffee.

I've wanted to try here for months, and finally got to on a sunny Saturday for breakfast in May, around 9am. Luckily, I got street parking directly out front. When I walked in the door, there was a couple ahead of me in line to order. You place your order and pay, they take your name and call it out when your crepes are ready. Seating for a dozen I think, four two-seater tables, and one four-seater table, so quite small inside and glad I got here early because it wasn't busy with 8 or 9 people there. Am assuming later in the morning, you wouldn't get a table. A couple of seats outside as well for the warmer days. A man was out walking his dog and popped his head in the door to see if he could order from the door without being the dog in, and the staff happily obliged, walking over to him to take his order and money. Anyway, the crepes are all listed on the wall so I opted for the Bon Matin (Oulton's bacon, egg, cheddar with garlic aioli $7). Not too big, and not overly filled with toppings, but still tasty and satisfying enough where I am excited to try more. It's fun to watch the friendly staff make the crepes right in front of you on two round grills. I may have waited 7 or 8 minutes tops, which is nothing. They only have two or three coffees in urns pre-made, but that's fine for me too. I also bought a baby Nutella jar at the counter for $2 because I thought it was very cute. lol I will be back!

Great food, great prices and the staff is very friendly! Lovely to support a great local business. Thank you!

great food, good prices, busy around noon, not a lot of seating, take out available, very pretty, nice atmosphere, recommend, good.

Just got to visit the Portland Street Creperie for the first time and Yum! I got the Chocolate covered berry crepe and it was one of the best sweet treats I e had in a very long time. The staff were all very nice and despite being lunchtime and being quite busy the service was quick. I will definitely be visiting music more now that I have discovered this local treasure!

Absolutely one of my favourite spots in Dartmouth! The staff are so friendly and kind, and the food is always amazing. It's not often that the food and the service are equally amazing, but this place has both. One time I ordered the wrong crepe (totally my bad, it had beef in it and I can't eat meat) and even though it was already made, they made me a new one free of charge. My week isn't complete without a lunch at PSC

My first time being There was recommended by a friend my boyfriend and I went there the food was good and When leaving that day we were both very happy and said we will come back this could be our lunch date area but then the next time I went we ordered the same thing but it came out very different didn't taste the same it even had chocolate in it which gave the whole cheesecake Oreo taste off , The person making it didn't give The cheesecake filling time to melt through it was just like a piece of cake with a wrap on it when the crepe we ordered has no chocolate in it I didn't like it I thought it was a waste of money and I was very upset because it was us going out in a very long time to spend our money that we have to earn. Not only that the crepe went from 8 to 9 dollars it's getting a little pricey.

Absolutely delicious, fresh, tasty, great ingredients... and a great deal! I had a the Bon Matin breakfast crepe and it was just the right amount for a medium size breakfast along with a coffee. There are a couple of sidewalk tables outside if you can snag one to enjoy the sunshine along Portland street. I am looking forward to going back to try a sweet or sweet and savory option. Yum!

There are so many things to love about this place! For starters the owner and employees are really approachable and friendly, which is a huge change from some of the surrounding restaurants. The crepes are well priced and delicious, good amount of options. My only complaint would be that something needs to be done to warm up the place the decor is a bit lacking, other then that these guys know what's up!

OMgosh can you spell deelish!! OK so I havent had crepes in eons and I havent been to this location since the Scottish bakery close...I was boycotting the address.... so my galpal takes me for lunch today OMGosh we had the crepe du mushrooms n brie n garlic...OMgosh then followed by dark choklit n strawberry crepe... ok this is my new fave place to feed my temple..the crepe is as simple as the decor but the secret inside each one is too_______ well it made this lady wanna lick the plate..I didnt ..I promise... or did I.... ;)

I absolutely love this place, you really cannot do any wrong in coming here. They have both savoury and sweet crepes all made fresh right in front of you. I highly recommend the Bon Matin, it's packed with eggs bacon cheddar and a spectacular roasted garlic aoli The coffee is fresh and delicious, prices are reasonable and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Great place to grab a quick bite and relax!

My wife and I tried it out last week as we recently bought a house in Downtown Dartmouth. We love being able to walk to these great new locations opening up. I must say, this place is now a new favourite of mine. Absolutely loved it. Their crepes are seriously delicious and the customer service is fantastic. Highly recommend if you're hungry and want fantastic food at a good price.

Recently tried Portland St. Creperie with some friends for Sunday brunch and what a treat!Food, coffee and service were all top notch what a great addition to Dartmouth's downtown we will definitely be back!

Drove from mic Mac mall area just to sit down and have crepes here. Paid for parking to find out they decided to close 45 minutes early just because. Was hesitantly offered to purchase take out. The guy at the counter was even the owner and it's pretty poor business to randomly close early when you feel like it. 1 star because I couldn't even try it. Not cool!

Had the ham and Swiss crepe today. Paper thin, delicate crepe, filled with tender ham, nutty Swiss and a bit of sweetness from the honey dijon. Excellent. Good coffee too. The place is small and always busy - it was packed on Sat. No place to sit down! But you can get your crepe to go. They have kept it simple. The decor and the menu. Six sweet crepes and six savoury. Coffee, tea or cold drinks. Just right. Priced right too. From 4 to 6 bucks. Great local alternative, friendly and relaxed. I will be back.

I have gone here several times but this last visit was wholly unsatisfactory. Ordered two crepes to go at 1125, counter person said it would be a 25 minute wait...ok, I'll wait. The actual wait was 52 minutes; I received my order at 1217. When I got home, one of the crepes was burned. Counter staff need to work on their time appreciation skills. Had I known I was going to have to wait almost an hour, I would have said no thanks, some other time.

The star of the show are the crepes and they're pretty fantastic! Coffee only ok, and the place was kind of cramped when I got there during rush hour, but a cool idea that works. Worth at least checking out!

We decided to try Portland Street Creperie this weekend after going to Alderney Market. The reviews of the food are very good, but unfortunately we did not have the chance to try it as they are either unable to, or uninterested in, accommodating allergies. I think it was disinterest as three of the four staff in attendance were too busy talking to each other to help us (even though it was obvious it was our first time there), while the fourth simply insisted that because the food is pre-made (!), my allergy couldn't be accommodated. I thought everything was freshly made at Portland Street Creperie, but apparently not. What was worse than my very easy to accommodate request being denied abruptly and without apology, was the complete disinterest on the part of staff to suggest options. Worst service ever.
