About this spot
L'Orangerie serves massive, buttery crêpes that are far too big to fit on a standard plate, forcing you to share or eat standing up in the bustling Chartrons neighborhood. The kitchen flips these thin pancakes with practiced ease, offering everything from classic Nutella and banana combos to savory options filled with ham, cheese, and fresh vegetables.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'Giant' size if you want a meal that lasts for an hour rather than a quick snack.
- Bring your own fork or ask for one immediately, as tables often lack cutlery for this casual dining style.
- Try the savory crêpes with ham and cheese to balance out the heavy sweetness of dessert options.
