Le Metro Creperie

This location is now closed :(So sad.

This was a great choice for lunch… The customer service was good as well! It was very good, quick and light. Perfect for lunch…

The staff were friendly and attentive. A worker there realized I had vision problems and handed me a menu. I ordered the Lemonette crêpe with strawberries and whipped cream. It was glorious.

The crêpe was good. Ordered banana and strawberry nutella crêpe that comes with free chips on the side. The staff are so friendly. And the place is quiet, just perfect for chilling.

I venture out to the Auburn Market quite a bit, almost daily. I noticed that Le Metro Creperie was always a bit slower than the rest of the market, but something today caught my eye. «Banh Mi Crêpe» was written on a sign near an entrance. «Oh, that’s interesting, I could totally see that working.»
Convinced that this banh mi crêpe was going to be amazing, I quickly ordered and grabbed a seat. It wasn’t long until it was right in front of me. I couldn’t believe it after my first bite. It was pretty disappointing. The chicken tasted like processed meat, like packaged lunch meat. It wasn’t even Vietnamese BBQ styled like banh mi. Banh mi is a Vietnamese pork barbecue sandwich. The traditional toppings include pickled carrots and radish with cilantro. The crêpe did have these toppings but nothing else tasted like a reinvented banh mi. Call it something else. I’m unsure why they added sriracha… maybe for the lack of Vietnamese seasoning. They also included regular white mayo (which is very unlike a banh mi) instead of the French inspired eggy Vietnamese mayo that is on most banh mi sandwiches. It basically tasted like a ham sandwich with pickled carrots.
I certainly hope that Le Metro Creperie takes notice and tries a little harder on their banh mi crêpe, because I’m certain that it can work… just with effort.

This place is amazing. The gentlemen at the register was so kind and held an awesome conversation with my mom about basketball and living in Atlanta for a long time. Super cute decorations as well, especially for being inside Sweet Auburn Market.
I had the Campfire crêpe with marshmallow, chocolate chips, and Reese’s sauce. My mom had the Nutella and fruit crêpe with bananas and strawberries. We watched the girls behind the counter make them, and they were so delicious.
I’ll definitely come back and bring my friends!

The service was great, the bubble tea was decent, but the crepes stole the show just as they should. I can’t wait to go back and try their breakfast crepes.

You get a decent meal here for $ 7 and on Mondays and Tuesdays, health professionals get 10% off! I prefer the savory crepes. They are made to order and have anything from turkey to gruyère to peach jam. You can even create your own. The actual crêpe is not your traditional crêpe. It’s gluten free and thus made with what looks like something entirely too healthy to be this delicious. Personally, I prefer the traditional white crepes, but I respect their uniqueness.
If you get your order to go, they box it up nicely and give you a cute little set of silverware, wrapped up tidily.

You don’t find crepes at too many restaurants in Atlanta. My ex and I had tried crepes at a place in Sandy Springs and had a good experience. So when I saw a voucher deal for Le Metro Creperie (which is by my home), I decided to jump on it.
Note: Located on the far side of the building (from the parking lot) on Edgewood side. Over in the corner by Grindhouse Burgers.
Order: The ex ordered The Gentleman (gruyère cheese, ham, sauteed mushrooms, and onions) while I ordered the Nutty Monkey (Reese’s peanut butter sauce, bananas, and honey). We shared a bubble tea (coffee with half and half and milk).
Staff: Very helpful and very nice. We had no idea what to order in our bubble tea. The bubble tea «guru» guided us through what combinations would work well together. Also, the cashier reminded us to check our receipt for a survey with chance to win a $ 25 gift certificate. Cool.
Food rating: The crepes themselves were not very tasty to me. You really want to count on the flavors of your fillings. I acyually like the Gentleman more than my order. For my Nutty Monkey, the peanut butter sauce overwhelmed everything else. I really didn’t even taste the honey. The bubble tea was decent and the balls were tasty.
I would try them out again, but would likely do a create my own version instead of their standard combos.

I am so very convinced that there is something here for everyone. Do not be afraid to try! Every time I have walked by I have always been greeted by a super friendly face. It was not until recently I decided to take them up on their offer and have a look at their menu. Talk about a variety. I tried the French Italian Border and I have been hooked ever since. The chicken is oh-​so tender, the goat cheese isn’t overbearing (surprisingly) and the mushroom sauce is a perfect addiction!
These things are filling and well the worth the price.
A MUST TRY IN THE CURB MARKET!

Wonderful crepes! We enjoyed the lemon crêpe for desert! The pimento with bacon is just brilliant. I’ll never think about pimento cheese the same way!
Can’t wait to go back.

Great place even though it seemed like it was in a sketchy part of Atlanta. Gluten-​free everything! Nice family! Unique flavors. I suggest a Nutella crêpe with strawberries and bananas! So delicious!

Wow. Amazing. Gluten free everything! And let me tell you gluten free crepes are amazing. I’m not sure what grain they use but I think I like them better than regular ones! I got Greg’s favorite which is spinach, feta, and Turkey and I have to agree with Greg, its amazing. I also got one of the best nutella crepes I’ve ever had. Dripping with nutella just how I like it. Nice family business. Cool location. Be forewarned. As someone not from Atlanta the location seems very sketchy to me. Bums all over etc. But the building is actually very nice. It is part of a sort of permanent farmers market indoors. Good clientele. Clean safe environment.

Amazing! First off let me start with the fact that everything they offer is Glutten Free. Don’t let that slow you down from stopping by. Everything they offer is delicious. It’s nice to know they offer a real GF meal for the GF conscience,(I“m not GF but many of my friends are).
I got the perfect pimento, just the right amount of cheese and bacon in a crêpe. They have a little bar with stools you can sit at and dine but I was in a rush so I took it home. They offered me a mint, cucumber water (free of charge) while I waited, the people at the register are so sweet.
They offer an assortment of crepes and have specials every day. Most are in the $ 8 – 10 range. That’s pretty good for Atlanta. If you ever stop by the Auburn Market, you have to stop by here. My new ritual at the Auburn Market will be Sweet Auburn Bakery and a Crêpe to go.

I was so excited to finally try this place after hearing that it opened and I was not disappointed!
The staff members are incredibly friendly, happy to strike up a conversation, see if you have any questions, and to make sure you are happy with the food.
The place was adorable, very well decorated and clean. You can watch them making your food sitting at their little bar. I tried the «Simply Sweet» and my boyfriend had the «Limonette». Both were absolutely delicious and surprisingly filling. We also ordered the «Campfire» because it sounded too good to pass up. It was also absolutely delicious and we had enough to take home with us.
I actually really enjoyed the gluten free batter. Though I don’t have a gluten allergy, I have several friends who do and I can always appreciate a good restaurant coming up with delicious gluten free foods that my friends would be able to enjoy.
I highly recommend this place! My boyfriend and I will definitely be going back!

I give them five stars because 1) the employees are always warm and welcoming. Out of the three times we’ve been there they always strike up conversations with us. 2) they’re crepes are amazing. You can see them make them through the window. Everything is handled with care. This is the only place in Sweet Auburn Market we can’t get tired of visiting. Keep up the good work!

I’m so glad that a scoutmob coupon finally lured me in to try this little crêpe place inside the Sweet Auburn Market. Le Metro is located near the back of the Market, between Panbury’s Double Crust Pies and Grindhouse Burgers. Though just a stand, it’s quite adorable, with Parisian lettered signs and pressed flowers adorning the walls.
I went with the «Grandma Prince» crêpe, whose menu description of peach jam, brie, prosciutto, arugula and freshly cracked black pepper I just couldn’t pass up. I also split a special dessert crêpe with chocolate, peanutbutter, and marshmallows («The Campfire») with my friend. We took our seats at the little bar they have attached to their stand and enjoyed watching our crepes being made through the window to the kitchen.
When our food finally came out (savory crepes first) we were wowed by the presentation! This is food as art for sure. Though I didn’t love the gluten-​free batter (as others have mentioned, it’s a bit tough and sour for crepes), the filling was so flavorful and in such abundance that I didn’t mind that the exterior was a bit «meh.» The portion size for the savory crêpe was also quite large — one crêpe is certainly enough for lunch.
I thought I might already be a fan of this spot, and then I took a bite of the dessert crêpe and knew I was a fan! The combo of melty peanutbutter sandwiched around warm and gooey chocolate and marshmallows was a true winner. I wish both crepes were wrapped cone-​style as they would be on the street in Paris (they’re a bit tough to eat with a fork and knife), but the difficult to eat presentation obviously didn’t interfere with my consumption too much, as both plates were nearly licked clean.

I am with Annie C. on this… The crepes here are not bad, but after having had really good ones (Inman Park, hint, hint…), these pale in comparison. The one thing that these crepes have going for them is that they are apparently gluten-​free. I cannot confirm this for all crepes and since I don’t have any gluten aversion, I cannot judge based on any bodily reaction.
I have built my own (sautéed arugula, prosciutto, and tomatoes), as well as ordered the daily special (I think it was called California something or other and I believe it had turkey, avocado, bean sprouts, and maybe some cheese?) and gotten a plain crêpe with brown sugar and lemon.
The first time I ordered (the build-​your-​own crêpe), I found the crêpe to be pretty good. Fresh fillings and a pliable, thin crêpe. The meal was light but satisfying. Upon returning with my childhood friend visiting from Bavaria, Germany, I got the California crêpe because avocados scream my name. I also got the salad, which was part of the daily special. When the crêpe was brought to my table, I was surprised by its girth and was quite excited to dig in. So… admittedly, I did not notice that there were bean sprouts (rather than spouts, as in alfalfa sprouts, which I like) in the crêpe and was a bit disappointed when I found the little pale rods inside my crêpe.
Anyway, what is knocking off a star or a star and a half from this review is how tough the crêpe was! This crêpe was much harder to cut through than the first one that I had and the plastic utensils could barely do the job. I noticed that this crêpe had a much darker color than the first one, which I am unsure is due to the flour used or the cooking time. The brown sugar and lemon one was easier to eat, as there was no filling, which enabled me to just pick at it with my bare hands. Because I’m barbaric like that. And after I completed it, I licked my fingers. What now?
The service here is always especially friendly. I have seen the same pair of ladies the two times that I have stopped by and they are kind and helpful. I am hoping that the crepes will improve and maybe stronger knives/​forks can be provided?
If I could not eat gluten, I would probably bump this rating up another star. Take that however you want to.

This crêpe place is totally gluten free!!! The other great thing about it is that you can create your own crêpe by choosing from a list of ingredients. I would come back here again! Yummy!

I know, two stars seems a bit harsh, but honestly I have had better.
Le Metro Creperie is one of the newer additions to Sweet Auburn Curb Market, and I had been looking forward to trying it for quite awhile now. The concession stand is adorable, it’s like a little piece of Paris in the middle of the Curb Market.
The menu is divided into two parts, «pre-​designed» crepes, and various specials (both sweet and savory) and then a ‘build-​your-​own’ section, with a list of ingredients to add. I went for the BYO, and honestly, it was a bit more pricey than I was expecting: The crêpe itself, is $ 3.95 and the various ingredients range from $ 0.50 to $ 1 and some change. I chose to have a more savory crêpe with arugula, prosciutto, and gruyère cheese — a seemingly delicious combination, at least to me. It took about 10 minutes to come out — a bit of a wait, but this was on a Saturday and they were busy. After the first few bites, I knew: I didn’t like it. At all. It’s on me, yes, since I chose the ingredients. It was salty, too salty, I should’ ve added something else to cut from the saltiness of the prosciutto. Keep this in mind, if you’re doing BYO: the crêpe is rather thin, there’s no sauce/​condiments, so the selections need to be more balanced.
The boyfriend, went for their savory special, which was the ‘pizza crêpe’ — and I did like it a lot more, but was it better than an actual pizza? Not really.
I haven’t given up on Le Metro yet, I think the dessert crepes, will be more up my alley.
