Caprice Croffle et Crêpe is a dessert restaurant in Montreal, Canada, found at 160 Rue Notre Dame E in the city's historic core. It is a place for something sweet, serving two French-inspired specialties: the croffle and the classic crêpe.
What to order
The croffle is the house signature. It is a croissant pressed in a waffle iron, which gives it a buttery, crisp outside and a soft, layered inside. Guests who have never tried one will find it a fresh take on a familiar pastry. Alongside it, the menu offers traditional crêpes, thin and delicate, in the French style.
Who it suits
- Travelers on a sightseeing day who want a midday pick-me-up.
- Anyone craving an indulgent break between museums, churches and streets of the old town.
- Visitors interested in French-inspired food, which the restaurant draws on throughout its menu.
The setting is cozy, which makes it a comfortable place to sit for a while rather than a quick stop only. Because it sits on Rue Notre Dame, it fits naturally into a walk around the older part of the city, where there is plenty to see before or after your treat.
If you want something sweet in Montreal and a lighter French touch on your day, Caprice Croffle et Crêpe is a straightforward choice. Go hungry for the croffle, and let the crêpes be the second order for anyone sharing.
