I appreciate them keeping the line outside so it’s not overcrowded inside but it seems ridiculous when it’s raining outside. When we got in we were told there were no seats so the only option was take out. My waffle was average at best and...Read More

Remember that you’re paying for the name and location. Would you get something that will fill your stomach, the answer is NO. Coffee or Espresso prices are pretty normal, as for other things I find it normal compared to other names like Starbucks. Like others...Read More

I recently visited a Nutella spot in Chicago, and while the service left something to be desired, the food more than made up for it. My favorite dish was the crepe perfectly made and generously filled with Nutella, it was a delightful treat. The flavors...Read More

Expensive, but if you love Nutella, worth the trip. The crepe was a bit chewy, and the iced mocha heavy on the mocha and non-existent Nutella flavor. The gelato flavor was incredibly creamy and delicious. If you don't have access to a good crepery, then...Read More

You have to wait outside for half an hour, even in the evening when it’s cold. After that, there’s another 15-minute wait inside. You can order for takeout or dine in. The service is quite fast (less than 10 minutes).The crêpes are very sweet, and...Read More
