T-Swirl Crepe
“I was contemplating for awhile because they had a lot of yummy options (savory and sweet crepes), but I decided on the Matcha Azuki Bean.”
“Taste really good keeps you full there's no complain I got many people asking me where I got it”
“They put whipped yogurt cream in there which balance out the sweetness from the custard cream.”

With t swirl competing with eight turn in the city, I think my winner is t swirl. If you're more of a quantity person, eight turn tends to pack their crepes with a little more oomph than t swirl. However, I prefer the batter in t swirl more because the crepe is able to stay firm despite the ice cream and other toppings.
If you're thinking French crepe this won't be what you're looking for because they're pretty different. Though it might be a new type of crepe that you'll be seeking out more often 🙂
I got the blueberry NY cheesecake crepe (a little over $7.50, which was delicious! Crepe was perfectly crispy, and I really liked the custard/cheesecake inside with the blueberries – it was even better with the scoop of ice cream they put on top! My boyfriend also got an iced coffee (1.75) with soy milk, which was surprisingly not bad considering I'm not a big fan of soy milk.
One crepe is probably enough for 1 person because the way it's presented makes it hard to share with another person (it's a cone-shaped crepe with ice cream on top). Seating area is pretty minimal and apparently it gets busy at times so I guess their presentation was meant for on-the-go, which is convenient!
I love the they always welcome you when you enter and offer a menu to help you decide which amazing crepe you want to try. Another plus is the ambience, with the upbeat music, and the current festive decor. The second time I was here in October the crêperie was decked out with Halloween decor. Now it's Easter themed. They definitely keep the atmosphere fresh.
Pros: The cashier is always very friendly and helpful with the menu. There is a variety of sweet and savory crêpes. My favorite savory one continues to be the Teriyaki chicken!
Cute little creperie place. Tiny in fact, with about 6 seats overall. A short walk from Flushing-Main St station, T swirl crepes is convenient for a crepe on the go. When you walk in, the smell of coffee hits you. The have a small espresso maker so you can enjoy a coffee should you want to pair it with your crepe.
There are a number of crepe flavours, such as chocolate banana, matcha with azuki red bean, matcha chocolate, and mixed berry. They also have savoury flavours. But we were there for dessert.
We ordered the matcha chocolate truffle crepe with slices of fresh strawberries and crushed pistachios. We also ordered the mixed berry crepe with strawberries, blueberries, and custard cream. Both were delicious, with a great textural contrast between the crunch of crepe, sweetness from the strawberry and pastry cream, and softness of the blueberries or chocolate truffle bits. Neither of these were overtly sweet, which I appreciated. The matcha however could have been a bit more prominent and perhaps was lost in the combination with chocolate truffle.
I like that this place serves iced lemon water to cleanse your palate while eating their crepes. I also like that the crepes at T swirl crepes are made of rice flour, which makes it compatible for those looking for a gluten free dessert. Hope to come back to try more of their dessert crepe options.

I've been here once before and I wasn't blown away by the crepes, but I decided to give them another chance. I order the chicken teriyaki crepe which came to around $8 after tax. It was a lot bigger than I remember and what I was expecting. It was tasted really good and fresh, but kind of messy to eat.
The service could have been better though. I walked in and there was only one person waiting for her food and despite having ordered, I had to reorder after the girl got her food.
Crepes make Steph happy.
Made to order, sweet to savory and all fresh! They even put them in paper cones! Last time I ate a crepe out of a cone was in Paris, so as you can imagine, I was more giddy than a kid on her birthday to try this place.
It was dinner(ish) time so a savory crepe was in order. My thai shrimp crepe was in my hands before I could stay pattaya 5 times fast. It was GLORIOUS. The outside was crispy, the peanut sauce warm, and the shrimp seasoned and hot. I would image the bottom of the crepe gets super soggy in the cone, however It wasn't around long enough for me to figure that out.
The water to sip in the waiting area is a nice little touch. The store is tiny with not many seats so expect to roam around or hastily eat it in the car like me. I'll be back. The matcha chocolate truffle crepe was calling to my sweet tooth.
Five stars…and some more if I can! I could eat these crepes all day long, every day, for the rest of my life. The Matcha Azuki Bean crepe is like a dream. It has japanese green tea ice cream with a little bit of red bean on top of the ice cream; the crepe is layered with fresh strawberries, matcha cream, and whip cream of some sort. The crepe is soft but somewhat crunchy, and it's just the right amount of sweetness. If I describe any more I'd start drooling… you get the idea.
The staff were extremely friendly. The space is small, but clean and well decorated. The display crepes don't do the real crepes justice! I wish they open a store in DC! Yelpers beware! This store will ruin all other crepes for you, because it's so freaking good!!!
I was seriously blown away by the dessert here. 0.0!!! A must try if you are around the area!!
My sister and I came here and shared a Green Tea Azuki Bean crepe. What amazed me was that every bite was something different. All the crevices of the crepe was used.
So I'll walk you through the experience.
You get your crepe, grab a spoon. Start with taking a spoonful of the green tea ice cream in the middle. Mm.
After a couple scoops of ice cream, you decide to take a bite from the crepe. The layers are thin and crispy and the outside is subtly sweet. Yum.
You bite adjacent, and get a strawberry with cream. Nice.
Take another spoonful of ice cream and take a bite from the other side. Matcha cream cream…whoa. Maybe have a bite of kiwi with that, or maybe the pocky stick.
You finished probably half the height of the crepe, so you ditch the spoon, and just take bites until thing thing's devoured. The further down you go, the bigger the combination of ingredients you're eating, til every bite has green tea ice cream, matcha cream, yogurt cream, and fruits. Gahh it was just so good.
Can't wait to come back and the different crepes on the menu.
