Reviews describe Muru Crêpe as a charming Totoro themed café in Old Montreal with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that suits families and travelers alike. Crepes are praised for being light, golden, and slightly crisp at the edges, with standout options like the crème brûlée crepe and matcha tiramisu crepe, alongside a wide range of sweet and savory choices. Latte art and visually striking drinks, including rose latte and hojicha and matcha beverages, appear frequently in praise along with strong coffee and tea. The decor is repeatedly noted as adorable and Instagram ready, perfectly matching the Studio Ghibli Totoro theme. Service is described as friendly and efficient, though the small space can lead to wait times and occasional slower pacing when busy. Some reviews mention prices as a bit high for portions, but many feel the quality, atmosphere, and experience justify the cost. Fans of the theme often call it a must visit and say they would return for the charming environment and tasty crepes.
The cutest ghibli cafe in Montreal! This place is mainly for breakfast, lunch, & dessert. They have plenty of drink & food options. We tried their signature creme brulee crepe & also their matcha latte with a special totoro latte art. Everything tasted super delicious . The atmosphere is super cozy & the decorations are so cute! Theres mainly totoro stuff. Would totally recommend if you're walking around old port
We chanced on this delightful eatery & we we're served the most delicious crepes surrounded by super cute Studio Ghibli decor. The service was friendly & speedy plus their latte comes decorated with My Neighbour Totoro 😍. Make sure to pay them a visit you will not be disapointed.

Food was good & decor was ok (more a cafe with Ghibli decorations than a fully themed space) but the chai latte was bland & diluted. The drink tasted more like the cinnamon topping (does not include themed latte art) than actual tea & not worth the extra dollar you have to pay for alternative milk. Food was ok but the drinks are 50/50 told staff about it but were dismissive & cared more about checking out & getting us out the door than dealing with comment.
C'est une très belle expérience a faire lorsqu'on est fan des films du studio Ghibli, même si en vrai les décorations etaient principalement Totoro.
Les déjeuners n'avaient rien de sensationnel, mais je crois que cet endroit pourrait avoir plus de potentiel si c'était plutôt un Café/Desserts.
Quand même, un coup de coeur pour la crèpe crème brûlée !
Un café ghibli on adore ! Le premier jour que j'étais venu c'était malheureusement fermé mais je suis revenu & j'ai adoré ! En plus sur le theme ghibli
Cute place very close to the port of Montreal. Ghibli themed. Nothing special about the food or drinks but prices are way inflated. Small portions for big bucks. We got 1 crepe & 3 drinks & spent $45 with tip included. The drinks were served in small glasses with lots of ice. The service was good though.
Delicious food especially the cold brew ice cream float & both crêpes we tried. Crème brûlée crêpe was awesome! Love the studio Ghibli decorations & Totoro is so cute! Very friendly staff as well! & accommodating. Thanks so much!

Le décor n'est pas très bien entretenu & on sent que c'est un peu déchu. Pas tout à fait à la hauteur de Ghibli. La bouffe était bonne, sans plus, mais très dispendieuse.
Amoureux de l'univers de mon Voisin Totoro des studios Ghibli ne passez pas à côté de cette crêperie à l'ambiance adorable. Attention toutefois, le système d'accès mis en place impose une attente en extérieur significative lorsque la salle est pleine. Nous avons personnellement attendu 15-20 min avant de pouvoir passer à table mais le service a ensuite été très rapide. L'équipe de service est dans l'ensemble très agréable (à l'exception de la gérante (?) qui même si elle a été courtoise n'a pas été très souriante) Le repas & les boissons sont très bons & ont un bon rapport qualité-prix.
Went here on the final day of my trip to Montreal. It was really pleasant, my friend had recommended the place & the first thing I noticed was the decor. As a fan of Ghibli I really enjoyed a lot of the My Neighbor Totoro decorations. As for the food, it was my first time having a crepe & I really found it delicious. The M12 was packed which allowed me to taste almost all of the ingredients. Their matcha latte was also pretty good & I liked seeing latte art in person for the first time lol. If I ever come back to Montreal, I'd take my friends here, it was really good.
For Totoro Fans, Muru is a must visit! The cafe is colorful, cute & cozy with themed art from Studio Ghibli's Totoro. We reached the cafe at 1.40pm in the afternoon & they close at 2.30pm. & so, the kitchen wasn't taking any more food orders but we ended up getting an iced coffee, just to spend time with the little Totoro-world in Montreal. We weren't disappointed. The staff is warm, friendly & accommodating. We will come back for the crepe!
Great place for a lunch date, we tried their Crêpe Crème Brûlée & it was excellent. You could share it but you may not want to. We liked the Studio Ghibli theme especially the castle in the sky art. The service was great for french & english speakers, didnt wait long for a seat, a hidden gem of the city.

Highly recommend! This little Ghibli themed cafe is very cozy & the food is great. The chocolate hojicha is amazing. We had sandwiches & omelettes, the savoury options were great too, tho slightly smaller portion wise. We also ordered the crème bulee crepe, tapping the caramel on top was so satisfying! Would definitely come back again.
Amazing idea of using Totoro to attract tourists & locals alike. Impressive crepes & good choice of drinks. Including dietary restriction options. Some Studio Ghibli puzzles & toys can be bought as souvenirs. The big plushies of Totoro was a nice touch.
So glad there was room for our large party to have brunch here. The food, especially the creme brulee crepe, was all so delicious, & the Ghibli decor was so cute! Service was also fast & friendly
