I'm not a huge fan of crepes (long story), but was convinced to try this place out. We went for lunch and, to my surprise, had a very positive experience. The place is small and was crowded at lunchtime, so it could be tough finding a seat during peak hours. Looking at the menu, I thought it was a bit pricey, but when the crepes were delivered to us, it turned out that they were large and substantive.
The savory lunch crepes were reminiscent of dosas -- apparently cooked through without flipping, so they had a nice crispness. They seemed to be made with buckwheat flour, which gave them a very nice flavor. We tried 2 different lunch crepes - one with an egg, ham, cheese and tomato, and one with mushrooms, bechamel, ham and cheese. They were both delicious & very satisfying.
We'd definitely go back to have them again! -

I'm not the worlds biggest crepe fan, I'm just not. But a friend convinced me to try this little place at the Jean Talon market.
They do something very different. They use buckwheat. I'm not sure what to make of it. It was tasty enough. I would go back. -

Whenever I travel to a foreign country, I always hope to find those truly authentic, special dining experiences. Crêperie du Marché in the Marché Jean-Talon did not disappoint in this respect. For a comparable experience, think Eastern Market if you are in DC or the Ferry Building Market in San Francisco or even the new revamped French Market in New Orleans - bustling, colorful and vibrant.
Marché Jean-Talon is a local's food market, but well worth the hike up to Little Italy. Crêperie du Marché serves DELICIOUS gluten-free (!) buckwheat flour savory crepes and equally DELICIOUS wheat flour sweet crepes. My traveling and dining companion ordered a savory crepe with egg, swiss cheese, caramelized onions, and semi-cooked seasoned tomatoes and spent the meal raving. Meanwhile, I went with an apple and cheddar cheese sweet crepe (my all-time favorite) and pretty much died happy.
You can find the cute little booth housing the Crêperie tucked into a corner of the market, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for it - you won't be disappointed in this small, cozy slice of French-Canadian cuisine. -

4 stars for the crêpes, 2 stars for sides.
We ordered a "spéciale" (ham and cheese crepe with a side salad and a water) at CAD 12, planning to come back for another crepe after a tour of the market. It took over 20 minutes to make the crepe and the side salad was completely burnt/frozen. When I complained to them about it, they said the fridge had gone too cold during the night... Granted, this was during the heat wave, but with all the fresh produce at the market, this was quite disappointing. We did not go back for a second crepe but I would go back for a very simple one (no fresh ingredients involved) next time we're in Montreal.
