Crepes & Waffles

Why we recommend Crepes & Waffles

Crepes & Waffles is the most Colombian restaurant in Colombia, which is a remarkable thing to say about a creperie founded in a Bogotá garage in 1980. Over 82% of its employees are women, the majority of them single mothers and heads of household, many of whom face significant barriers to employment elsewhere. The company is a certified B Corporation that pays above minimum wage, provides healthcare and housing support, and sources ingredients from small farming communities. Every meal here supports something real.

The brunch menu is the highlight and the value is genuinely hard to beat. The savory crepes are the move, the sweets tend toward the overly sweet side. Kids love it. The La Serrezuela location near the walled city is our recommendation. The restaurant gets loud and busy, service can be slow when full, and brunch has a cutoff so check current hours before arriving late. But when the bill comes, you'll be surprised at how affordable it is for how much you enjoyed it.
