Whether you're a Francophile or just a flat-ophile, Yelpers bring you a skillet full of ideas to butter you up for a truly great escape in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Crepe e Croissant
396 Byres Road, Glasgow
Marj C "always gets the sweet crepe with marshmallows and cream - every time I am given a generous amount of chocolate, enough to cultivate a massive belly over time! But it'd be worth it since they know how to make their crepes just right."
The Green Police Box, Lauriston Place Edinburgh
"The filling was generous and in addition to chicken there was spinach, avocado, peppers and cheese plus additional jalapenos," says Anita A. "I really enjoyed it and next time I want to try out the sweet 'Monkey Delight' that consists of bananas, chocolate and nuts."
Go Slow Cafe
452 Victoria Road, Glasgow
Liz K "just had coffees, which were pretty good, and helped cheer us up (along with the reggae playing) on such a dreich day. They have chocolate crepes, though, which is always a winner, don't you think?"
Fleur de Sel
61 Frederick Street, Edinburgh
"I selected the galette complete - ham, cheese, mushrooms, onions and egg," says Rayan D. "I added some black pepper and instantly I was transported to Bretagne, Côte de Granit Rose memories come to mind, the smell, the taste, the texture - very good!"
Russian Cafe-Gallery Cossachok
10 King Street, Glasgow
May D went for the "salmon blinis" - "they were not what I expected; the smoked salmon was tasty … and the blinis were more like large crepes. It was served with sour cream dip, and salad on the side."
126 Nicholson Street, Edinburgh
"Gluten free galettes available in both sweet and savoury options, they come as a decent size portion and are about £4 to £5 so budget friendly." Claire L says they're "tasty, filling and with a decent amount of both ham and cheese but not too greasy."
Cubatas
108 Elderslie Street, Glasgow
Tara W "love their tapas concept - we were able to sample 7 or 8 delicious menu items. We especially loved the chicken crepes and bacon wrapped chicken."
Pierre Victoire
18 Eyre Place, Edinburgh
"The trio of crepe suzette, sweet ice cream sorbet and chocolate souffle really was a delicious end to my meal, served alongside a lovely large glass of rose," tips Morven R.
Beanscene
1365 Argyle Street, Glasgow
"With a great array of food and drinks (chai latte!) your only difficulty here will be trying to chose between the pizza or the crepes" says Katie A.
Tanjore
6-8 Clerk Street, Edinburgh
"I had a masala dosai, something I'd never heard of before but which was recommend to me. So tasty! I couldn't help but get excited when I caught sight of the giant curry filled crepe presented before me with a range of sauces and dips," says Nicola C.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
