 Enjoy the Good Things in Life |
476 Castro Street (between 17th & 18th Street) San Francisco, CA 94114 United States +1 415 558 0893 http://www.abonportsf.com info@abonportsf.com |
With comfy couches and large windows facing the bright and colorful Castro street, A Bon Port is the perfect place to lounge around with a cup of coffee and still catch plenty of daylight sunbeams. Not only that, this cozy French-Belgian Café sports some of the best crepes in the area. One bite into a crepe at A Bon Port will reveal their secret: They use quality ingredients, and you can tell. A taste of their goat cheese will probably send you to heaven. This and many other tasty experiences, both sweet and savory, makes A Bon Port a worthwhile visit. Just don't forget to listen to the pretty French music while you're eating. Review © 2007, Wcities |

The Butler & The Chef Bistro |
155A South Park St. San Francisco, CA 94107 United States +1 415 896 2075 http://www.thebutlerandthechef... Wayne@TheButlerAndTheChefBistro.com |
This authentically French neighborhood oasis provides respite to SoMa professionals in need of breakfasts more pleasurable than a stale danish - and lunches more moving than a microwave burrito. The Butler & the Chef offers an elegant menu of salads, pates, quiches, crepes, croissants and more. The sandwiches (both hot and cold) stand head and shoulders above typical deli fare, all served on freshly baked bread and chock full of specialty meats, luscious veggies and exotic greens. For dessert, enjoy decadent standards like creme brulee, or opt for the simple but stunningly good maple-pecan cookie. Beer and wine are available, in addition to a full list of coffee specialties. See website for menu. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Street Crepes |
350 11th Street San Francisco, CA 94103 United States +1 415 503 1294 |
Crepes A Go-Go truly lives up to its name. Fast service in small quarters means eating on the go. This no-nonsense creperie features a wide array of stuffings for their deliciously light crepes. From eggs and avocado, to strawberry and nutella, there is a flavor for everyone here. After a long night of dancing downtown or on a lazy weekend morning, a filling, floury wrap just hits the spot.

Mighty tasty |
100 Carl Street (at the corner of Cole Street) San Francisco, CA 94117 United States +1 415 664 1800 |
A Cole Valley neighborhood favorite, this place sells delicious crepes by the bundle. The restaurant's popularity is due to low prices, great service and a specialty menu. In a somewhat casual, even funky, environment, it is certainly not a place for a fancy dinner but rather one for a quick treat. Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the thin, pancake-like delicacy can be topped with a variety of goodies from fruit and powered sugar, to cheese and onions. Breakfast crepes are served with a side of house potatoes. Note: Cash only. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Creative crepes & sandwiches |
624 Irving Street (between Seventh and Eighth avenues) San Francisco, CA 94122 United States +1 415 681 5858 http://www.thecrepevine.com/ info@thecrepevine.com |
The appealing combination of fresh ingredients, hefty portions, and inexpensive prices fill this crepery/coffee house for lunch daily and brunch on Sunday. The wood-paneled walls and heavy wood tables create a dark atmosphere inside. For those who prefer more light, several tables are set up outside on the sidewalk. Names like the Bombay, Santa Fe, and Tuscany make it difficult to choose just one item. Both savory and sweet crepes (including ones with pears and chocolate with ice cream) are served, as well as sandwiches and omelettes. Note: Cash only. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Fries for Frie's Sake |
590 Valencia Street (On the Corner of 17th Street) San Francisco, CA 94110 United States +1 415 863 8272 http://www.frjtzfries.com/ |
Ever realized you liked the side of fries that came with your dinner more than your entree? Head to one of Frjtz two locations and you will see that fries constitute a meal all on their own. A large basket of crispy fries that melt in your mouth at the first bite can be accompanied by any number of dips featuring flavors from Thailand to Italy. Now Frjtz has two locations, a tiny cozy spot in Hayes Valley and a larger restaurant in the Mission District. The large Valencia street location has an aura of decadence with its high ceilings and art installations, but this doesn't stop everybody and their mother from going there. You're only eating fries after all, and everyone loves fries. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Quick and Tasty |
Westfield San Francisco Shopping Center 865 Market Street San Francisco, CA 94103 United States +1 415 512 6776 |
It's a trend and it's catching on, the combination of Italy's best dairy-based dessert, gelato and France's best tasting flour-based food, the crepe. Even though both are common fare in Europe, crepe and gelato stands are rare in North America, as if the food is not recognized as a great tasting, quasi meal. However, there is hope. California is breaking the mold with the franchise Melt Gelato & Crepe Cafe, now open in the Westfield San Francisco Shopping Centre, offering multiple flavors of gelato and spectacular crepe creations to fill you up. Take a chance on sugar and flour, it won't hurt, it will just taste really, really good. You will say goodbye to the Atkins and South Beach diets for good. Review © 2007, Wcities |
