About Us

Yann Bris, owner and chef, originally from Brittany in France, more precisely from the city of Paimpol, a small fishing port in the Cotes d'Armor, settled in Quebec in 2005. After earning his degree in hotel and restaurant management, he worked for the Accor Group as director of hotel-restaurant in the southwest of France, a bastion of French gastronomy. He opened his first crêperie in Fort Lauderdale, on the coast of Florida, in the United States. This success and some leisure travel to the beautiful city of Montreal, prompted him to return and try the Quebec experience. He opened a decoration boutique in downtown Montreal, on Amherst Street, which he calls Karactère with a "K". Despite the success of this enterprise, he misses restauration. He decides to close the shop and starts a project that is closer to his love of gastronomy by opening a crêperie in the now trendy district known as Griffintown. He sets his sights on a former hairdressing studio that he completely transforms to create Spanel, the Breton word for "spatula" Spatula for turning pancakes. Spanel's philosophy is based on a cuisine made exclusively with fresh, quality products. Thanks to the proximity of the Atwater Market, Yann can fulfill his wish to serve his customers crepes and gourmet dishes. Spanel is also committed to offering its customers a warm and friendly atmosphere. The choice of a shady terrace, surrounded by trees and equipped with heaters, allows them to make the most of outdoor dining, from the first days of summer until the arrival of winter. The chef hopes you'll enjoy discovering Spanel and come back often to spend pleasant moments.

With a large faithful clientele of happy customers (I am a regular), this is a bustling-busy restaurant. The staff is friendly + professionally attentive & does everything to satisfy their customers. Their extensive menu of creatively imagined crepes are out of this world excellent. Whether you sit inside or out on the terrace, the atmosphere/ ambience is lovely.View more

Prepare your taste buds for delight at this crepe haven! Their crepes are so good, they should come with a warning label:'May cause uncontrollable happiness & cravings for more.' The service is like having your own personal crepe concierge-attentive, friendly, & always ready to fulfill your wildest crepe dreams. Plus, the place is so quaint, you half expect fairies to sprinkle powdered sugar from the ceiling. In short, Spanel is a must-visit for anyone who enjoys life, laughter, & layers of crepe perfection.View more
