While Creme de la Crepe has spread across Southern California, opening outlets as far south as San Diego, the Hermosa Beach-born restaurant is still the crepe king of the Beach Cities.
Creme de la Crepe offers 38 varieties of fruit-filled breakfast crepes, decadent dessert crepes and savory crepes from morning to evening. The rest of the menu is filled out with waffles and quiches, sandwiches and salads, and house-special entrees.
