Crepe N Tearia
“Started going here almost everyday when it first opened, mostly because of the discount they offer to St. John's students, and I came to love it.”
“They will give you your crepe on a paper plate, but I would take it as "they focus more on the food, not the decoration."”
“Peach Lychee green tea with bubbles, star jelly, and fruit jelly.”

Locally owned neighborhood tea shop that just happens to serve crepes. Apparently this spot's been around for years, to my astonishment I found my way here through yelp just a few days prior.
Though I have to agree with fellow yelpers that they could work on being more time efficient, these guys do hand brew the teas as the orders come in, depending on the situation, this could be a love or hate.
They were out of some the fruit teas that I wanted so I settled for a lavender bubble tea, sweeter than I'd like. Meh. But the best bubble tea in the neighborhood by far!
Crepes will suffice.
Ordered with high hopes of finding the new crepe spot only to be overwhelmingly disappointed.
We both ordered the same crepe with the exception of mine having teriyaki sauce and G had the pesto sauce. The savory chicken crepe with a bunch of stuff I have never heard of in a crepe, plus there was lettuce in the crepe? What?
First off the crepe itself was over done and sweet flavored and was all around horrible. There was some diced chicken pieces in the thing with some spinach, lettuce, corn and some cheese, then doused with teriyaki sauce. WTF is this? I told G I was not eating it. The girl that took the order then brought over G's crepe and I told her to throw mine away, that I did not like it. So she picked it up and threw it away. Nothing more. Not a can I make you another, NOTHING! G then got into his and decided that better safe than sorry and tossed his out and paid over $20 for the lousy experience.
If I could give this place a zero I would, so 1 star it is. I would rather stay home and have Alpo or Friskies on toast rather than to come to this place. Does that tell you something?
We left this place and headed down to the Thai restaurant two blocks down for a better meal.
How this place has stayed in business with this not fit for human consumption food is beyond me. Enjoy no longer getting our money Crepe N Tearia. Oh the power of choice, its a good thing.
I was craving for crepe and decided to stopped by to this place . Food was good but did not find it appealing as they use paper plate to place my crepe. A turn off. Price is reasonable for the taste and amount of serving.
Service was excellent .
The crepes are okay. I got a strawberry + nutella and an earl grey tea while waiting for a friend. The service was very quick and the mother-daughter duo running the place are very helpful and friendly. It's also a pretty large crepe for about $6.
Parking in the area is possible, be prepare to pay meter though!
If you're in the area and strongly craving crepes, this spot is OK. I got the banana – strawberry – nutella crepe for take-out, which came in an aluminum rectangular take out container. I enjoyed the crepe only because it contained nutella. Otherwise, the dessert wasn't exceptional, since the crepe batter was rather thin and it was hard to cut.
I give Crepe N Tearia two stars, because nothing about my experience there stands out or jumps out to me. I remember walking into the space, and the temperature was way too hot and it felt stuffy inside, so after initially telling the server I'd eat in, I asked for my crepe in a to-go container.
Also, I didn't realize until I went inside that this spot only accepts cash, which was an inconvenience. The staff worker behind the counter clearly saw me pausing and regrouping my thoughts when I realized this, and she didn't offer any suggestions or help– in this situation, a staff member might try to help by saying, "We have an ATM here", or "there are banks across the street that you can go to". I didn't hear anything like that from the staff worker behind the counter, which was disappointing. I knew there was a Citibank across the street, so I had to go across the street to get cash from my bank, and then come back to order.
If you're in the area and are craving crepes, one of the nutella crepes here will adequately do the trick. If you can wait and opt for a better dessert experience, I would go to another place.
I went here to satisfy my bubble tea craving. I ordered the jasmine bubble tea and it was too sweet for my liking. I couldn't even finish it. We ordered the smores crepe. They put it on a paper plate which I didn't mind. The crepe tasted delicious and they didn't skimp on any of the ingredients there. I would come back just for the crepes.
Crepe N Tearia would've received a solid 4 stars from me for their good bubble tea/crepes and excellent service but the prices are just too high! I've come here twice; once for the bubble tea and the 2nd time for their crepes. The first time I came here I ordered 3 bubble teas and ended up paying $10+ for them which I thought was slightly expensive. In my mind, 3 bubble teas should only be at most $9. I got the mango milk tea with star jelly and thought it was really good and my friends also like the ones that I got for them. However, when I came back the 2nd time to order the strawberry, banana, and nutella crepe, it ended up costing me $8+ for one crepe which I find completely unreasonable…This place definitely isn't one of those famous crepe places in Manhattan so the fact that they're charging so much for 1 crepe is just ridiculous. I could buy the ingredients and make my own crepe for less than $3…However, I did think that it was a pretty good crepe though.
Don't get me wrong, the food/drinks here are good and the lady in charge is SUPER nice! She even asked me how the crepe was when I was eating it and said bye to me when I left! It's just the prices that I'm not a fan of.
I love coming in here just because it smells so wonderful inside!
Other than that, the crepes are pretty good. I've only ever had their sweet crepes, which are absolutely delicious, albeit it's a little pricy. The bubble tea here is pretty great too! I totally recommend the Taro bubble tea–it's so yummy!
