The sounds of soft jazz and French chanteurs filter through the room, whisking diners away to another place.

Trois Crepes Patisserie
It started with three friends and their passion for crepes and traditional pastries. During a Crepes party they decided to share their love for this French dessert with New Yorkers. By nature, Crepes are best when made and consumed within the same day. Trois Crepes is planning to open a Manhattan based Patisserie in 2006. Meanwhile, our fresh Crepes are available through our catering services, or if you prefer to prepare them at home, you may order our crepes mix. It is our pleasure to serve you Crepes in the pure French tradition.

Details large and small - from our spacious wine bar to an entire dining room filled with wine bottles to the little list of 30 wines by the glass - show how we feel about wine.
