Cafe Breton

Update June 22, 2019: Rating 4
I had a better and more relaxed experience this time around. I arrived early for the Park Bo Gum Fan Meet at MOA Arena so my friend and I decided to have merienda at Cafe Breton from 4-5pm. We were seated immediately, it wasn’t as packed as my experiences in the past when watching concerts, the staff were attentive.

My first time to try this savory crepe with hungarian sausage, egg and asparagus and I enjoyed it very much. The different components tasted well together and it was filling as well. Definitely ordering this again next time.

Late post, visit was last month when we ate here before the Josh Groban Concert.

Luckily we were there early around 5-530pm. It good packed and had a long line starting around maybe 6 or 630pm because the concert was at 8pm.

We were seated near the door, there were quite a few mosquitoes even if we were seated inside. Good thing I always have me an all natural anti mosquito cologne otherwise it would really be (majorly) bothersome.

The food quality was okay. Still the same as other branches. I still enjoyed my Butter Sugar crepe. However it was saddening when I requested the server to make it a bit more tostado (this is my common request whenever I’m in a Cafe Breton) and the server automatically declined. He said they couldn’t accommodate it because there were a lot of customers. Huh? Wouldn’t my request only add a few seconds or max a minute to the cooking time. I didn’t want to argue anymore as I didn’t want to spoil my (concert) mood and also always scared they might do “something else” to my food.

I also ordered the Poseidon. I love smoked salmon. I haven’t ordered this in yearsss. And I was reminded why - the smoked salmon ended up being cooked! Maybe better if they just top the smoked salmon after they’ve cooked the crepe. Just some (unsolicited LOL) feedback.

Understandbly, since the place was super packed, service was slow. Good thing we were early, as previously mentioned, so we didn’t wait long for our orders. The “slow service” came when we were asking for the bill. It was no use asking the bill from the server/s. It never came. I then noticed a line of customers at the cashier. Apparently everyone was lining up to pay instead of waiting for the bill at the table. So that’s what I did too because I was afraid we might be late for the concert. Lined up at the crowded / narrow hallway for maybe a good 15-30 minutes. Hassle. Hoping Cafe Breton MOA can fix the system every time there is a concert at the arena.

I still gave a satisfactory rating of 3 because food wise, it was still consistent with other Cafe Breton branches.

My friend and I decided to walk around and check the restaurants outside MOA for a change. On the ground floor of the parking building (?) of the arena were restaurants that couldn’t be found inside the mall. So we settled in Cafe Breton (I was craving for crepe too). My friend ordered Tuna Melt sandwich and I ordered Chicken Orange & Almonds salad. Lastly, we ordered the Le Delice crepe for dessert

Our go-to place for crepes and coffee. Been coming back to this place for years and years now. For dinner, we usually get galette americain or hamburcrepe. For merienda, you can’t go wrong with butter, lemon and sugar. The relaxed Parisian ambiance makes your stay here great as well. However, serving time for this branch seems to be slower as there is only one working crepe pan.
