The food is delicious, however the service is awful, I was waiting for 1 strawberry banana crepe for 35 minutes, although it was not busy AT ALL!I was sitting outside and when I went in to ask about my order I saw other families who came after me are eating their food, I believe they completely forget about my order, they gave me my coffee after 10 minutes and I went in and told them my coffee is cold and I still dont have my crepe they she told me she can reheat the coffee, she came back with my coffee and crepe after 5 minutes, the cup was so dirty and sticky, I told her to double cup it because it was gross!!! Then she put the crepe on table ( the whipped creams was completely melted) and when I asked about knife and fork she said its inside you need to get it!Never ever come back, because I believe sometimes service is more important than food!

We love Wholly Crepe! They have an awesome menu, and our crepes were phenomenal! We got the Strawberry Banana Nutella crepe and the Banana Caramel crepe. The owner is also very warm and friendly. We’ll be back!

I’ve been going to this restaurant for over a year now. They consistently have excellent food, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. Sweet crepes range in price from about $6 to $10 and savory crepes average $9. They also showcase beautiful artwork for sale or to admire.

Tried a perfect balance of a savory crepe and a dessert crepe - the pesto chicken and the strawberry bananutella crepe. Both of them were brilliant and were the perfect brunch.They older gentleman who made our crepes was delightful and they also have open mic nights on the first and third Friday of the month. This quaint place is tucked away in a fairly old school and quiet part of town. I highly recommend it.

Great food.. great service. Went here with a friend and our 5 kids. Everything looked so delicious. The kids had the strawberry banana nutella crepe which they devoured. Me and my friend ordered the pesto chicken crepe and oh boy was it better than I expected. I just never thought of having a savory crepe because crepes are supposed to be sweet right? It was really flavorful and I aint no plain, bland kind of person. I also ordered the liege waffle to take home as my something sweet but it never made it home. The waffle had this light sweet crunch to the outside of it and the whipped cream and strawberries were not overly sweet. We will definitely be returning soon.

We discovered Wholly Crepe in Poway late last year and have returned several times. The restaurant is cute and welcoming and the staff is very friendly. I have had the veggie crepe which is delicious as well as a veggie sandwich which was outstanding. My husband has tried several crepes including the chicken pesto crepe which he really enjoyed. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a delicious meal.

This place is excellent! I visit Poway a couple timse a year from Wisconsin and finally got the chance to stop in here after visiting the Farmers Market. I ordered the Classic breakfast Crepe and my husband ordered the Kitchen Sink crepe. We were both overwhelmingly impressed by flavor and portions. They give you enough stuffing in a crepe to make you full for hours. I hope to try a dessert crepe on our next return to town.

I frequent this place every time I’m in San Diego! It’s small, comfortable, friendly & family owned. The service is wonderful, ingredients always fresh, and the crepes are Superb! I assure you, if it’s busy, it’s absolutely worth the wait!

We accidentally ordered takeout from the wrong location and they immediately helped us cancel the order then called the Poway location to get the order started for us to be able to pick it up faster. Super nice people! The food was delicious. We got the chicken pesto crepe and the majeztis panini and both were very tasty!

This was relatively a neat place to visit. Located in old poway. The interior doesnt look as nice as the current picture would have you believe - probably changed due to covid19. There is no air conditioning so hot days like the one we had does not make for a comfortable dining experience. The crepes we had were quite delicious however. Had the egg and bacon crepe and it was better than any omelette I have ever had. The crepe is light. You could really taste the generous portions of the filling. Overall I would say worth the visit and worth coming back- on a cooler day.

Really delicious crepes. Currently open for takeout, and the guy was able oto make an order for 3 fairly quickly (15 minutes). I can recommend the turkey pesto, chicken pesto, kitchen sink, Monkey Turtle, and mixed fruits crepes. All were delicious.

It was a beautiful day for a stroll to Old Poway Park. We stopped at Wholly Crepes. It was busy. I had a Turkey Pesto. Delicious! Too full to get a dessert crepe. Been there before, so I know they’re good.

Was visiting Poway and stopped here for breakfast. It was very good, and the man working was very sweet. I loved my strawberry banana Nutella crepe and my sister said her Rocky sandwich was really good. But I do have to say that the door was left open so there were flies everywhere. They are currently open for outside fining and takeout.

The environment and food was amazing. The people working were very nice and they made the food quickly. We tried two savory meals and one sweet. So good and we would definitely go back. The price was a little much but for the location, its understandable.

I have NEVER had a crepe experience like this! I had the bacon, egg hearty crepe and my son the cinnamon and sugar. We shared the food and the amazement. I would definitely recommend eating here. Great food, service, and ambiance. Two thumbs up

Review №41

Underwhelming but nice service.Friend and I both grabbed Chai. It was large but tasted like flavored hot milk. She got the caramel monkey. Slightly soggy with perhaps 2 walnuts. I got the chicken pesto with avocado. The chicken bits were cold. everything else was flavorless to the point that I put my chips in to try and get some flavor.Dude was running the place by himself and was very nice and courteous though. Pretty place. Lovely outdoor seating.

1st time here. Had a crepe with Nutella, banana, strawberries, whip cream, and powdered sugar and chocolate sauce on top. Yum!! Owner of restaurant was very nice. Checked to see if we were enjoying our meal and if we needed anything. I appreciated that. Owner told us that he had a location in San Marcos Ca. This is closer for me, so in the future I will go there when Im in the mood for a crepe.

Review №45

$10 for a crepe? That’s way overpriced. The crepes were tasty and the guy working was super nice- however, he was the only worker at the time, taking orders and making the food. So it took us half an hour to get our crepes. At that point, we had to get them to go and eat in the car. On top of that, it was super hot inside, like there was no AC. Even the water was lukewarm. Overall, just a one star experience.

What an amazing Place. Really great customer service. Its a family-owned business. Youve got the elders in the back and the kid run in the front. Has that awesome feel that I know everything is homemade. We tried a large amount of crepes. Smores, Reeses, bacon and egg, ham and egg, Turtle monkey, mixed fruit, in fact we got two of the bacon and egg. This place was super good and I definitely recommend it. I hope that they end up opening up more locations because we drove here from San Marcos its that good! Thanks again guys

Wholly Crepes is a place where you order and sit down. Its best to order a dessert crepe when ordering your meal. Id been looking forward to the day we were going to go to Wholly Crepes.The crepes were nice and thin, light and had absolutely no taste of grease .The choices available all sounded delicious and what we ordered was. The sauces were good but could have been heated up a bit more. The one disappointment we had was that they were so skimpy with the crepe fillings. It was like being teased. You want more!

We came in at 9 am on a Sunday with one employee and about 10 other people (not with our group). The opening employee was working his butt off and still got everyones food order taken and out in a timely manner.Delicious food and several options. Breakfast, savory and dessert crepes. If you like crepes and are in the San Diego area, this place is a must.

I got the kitchen sink crepe without meat. Very undercooked onions and mushrooms with mushy hash brown filling. So disappointing I had to drench it in Tapatio to make it edible.

Review №60

Delicious, but inconsistent open hours. Dont use their posted online hours after 4pm, some days they close early if they dont have enough foot traffic. Family showed up at 4:30pm on a Friday and found they were NOT open, despite online saying open 8am-9pm for Fridays. Food is great, but if in the evenings might want to call first to verify they will be open.Edit: Response to owner comment - this review is about 2 years old as I write this. Has open hours policy changed?

Went on a Sunday early afternoon. Crepes were thicker than normal, kind of a rubbery consistency. Taste was ok but nothing spectacular. Paid a bit extra for fresh lemonade that didnt taste any different than powdered mix with water. Location is alright but an overall disappointing experience.

Beep Beep, whats that sound? You better have your ticket, cause you dont want to miss the crepe-train.They crepe so good, they crepe-trained Paul Bocuse.In short, if you have a deep seated affair with crepes, sending your moth to heavens, while your jeans struggle to accommodate your increasing waistline, there is no better place.Be warned, however, their other food is bad... Doesnt matter, you came for the crepes, you stayed for the crepes, and you gained for the crepes. Now put on your big-girl spanx and get to it.
