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.
Absolutely love Muru Crêpe! The owner is incredibly kind & welcoming, & I really appreciate that it's a pet-friendly spot. The Muru matcha latte is hands down one of the best I've had-so smooth & flavorful. A cozy gem in Montreal! 💚🐾
Visited this adorable café during a trip to Montreal & absolutely loved it!
We went on a weekday & got a table right away. The food was delicious, the service was efficient & friendly, & the latte art was seriously impressive. A cozy little spot that's definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!

Cute & small cafe, not many seats available so there could be some wait time depending on the day. Food was ok, great staff very welcoming & cute latte art, that's the gimmick of the place.

This is by far one of the best cafés in Montreal, located in the heart of old Montreal. I've tried the rose latte for the first here & it was absolutely amazing. I came back again & tried the creame brûlée crepes & it blew my mind. Whenever i will visit Montreal, this place is on my list.
TOTORO themed cafe! とてもかわいい！The crepes were really flavourful. We tried the Chicken white wine crepe, & the Banana Brulee. So good!! The drinks were also really good. Nice touch with the totoro latte art!
This is the BEST place for breakfast/brunch/lunch in the world. The staff is so kind & attentive. Not to mention, super talented with the latte art. Every single thing I got from the menu was soooooo good. You can't go wrong with anything. Merci beaucoup, Emily!

Nice & cozy, but you might need to wait a bit before getting in! When we got there, there was a big line. But the crepes were tasty & the lattes were soooo cute 🥰
My partner & I had breakfast here this morning. The food was mediocre & the service was not good. Upon arriving we asked the waitress if they had any gluten free options. She said no. This was obviously not true, so we ordered an omelette with potatoes, tomatoes & fruit (all gluten free). We also ordered a croissant & two lattes. The omelette was pretty basic. The croissant was dry & tasted stale. My latte was lukewarm. I asked the waitress to microwave it. She said they don't have a microwave & will make me a fresh cup. Yet, the cup she brought back was the one I had sent back, which was slightly warmer. I don't recommend this restaurant.
Everyone else's latte art is that Totoro chinchilla, & I got this angry hamster 😂 my husband always calls me an angry hamster, what a coincidence 😃😂 nice food & atmosphere!

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.
Absolutely loved this cafe!! Food unbelievably delicious. Lattes with Totoro portrait in the foam, unbelievable!!! Totoro is my daughter's favourite film. It was such a treat to find this little gem of a cafe. I cannot recommend it highly enough!! If you are in Montreal this is a must do!! Crème Brûlée crepe was the best thing I have tasted in a long time.
