Cute and delicious

There was a good variety of vegan crepes to choose from. I ordered the pumpkin crepe special which I was unable to get, they came out to check with me as the cream cheese is not vegan. I told them to make me whatever is vegan that they thought would be good, and they brought out my pb & j crepes which were delicious!!! I appreciated their double checking of my dietary needs and thinking on their feet to make me something good.

Best Crepes in Town!

Brown Butter Creperie is a highlight of Grand Rapids’ Eastown. From its distinct windmill exterior, it holds itself as something unique to the city.

The restaurant has transformed through the years into a place with a welcoming atmosphere. The paint is fresh, the windows are new, and the curtains shade throughout the interior from the greenhouse-like seating area. As far as ambiance, Brown Butter has the finesse you would expect in a French-American style creperie.

There are a few vegan options for crepes. I recommend the sweet options. They are delicious, and It is nice to have this as an option locally.

Brown Butter has grown in popularity recently, so expect to have to wait for a seat on the weekend. The addition of their outside seating has helped ease the wait.

I highly recommend Brown Butter for a sweet breakfast date.

Cute crepes with many vegan options

This place is adorable- housed in an old windmill with a pretty outdoor space and very nice staff happy to help vegans with menu. I recommend going with the sweet as opposed to savory crepe!

Pros: Cute space , Kind staff , Many vegan options

Cons: Cold brew tasted old , Pesto here is not vegan
