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.
As a matcha lover, I would not recommend the matcha latte. The flavor does not taste like authentic matcha, but more like a green tea blend you can easily find elsewhere. The star is for the latte art & atmosphere.
Stayed at a hotel 5 mins away (fate??) & obviously dragged my boyfriend here. The latte art was even cuter in person, the portions were huge, & the whole place felt like a warm hug.

Super cute cafe in a great area. The whole cafe is decorated in Totoro! They also have quick service with yummy fresh food. Simple ingredients nothing too crazy. My caramel macchiato also came with latte art!
If you or someone you know is a fan of My Neighbor Totoro, this is a must-visit. The crepes were amazing & the decor was absolutely adorable, from window decorations to the blackboard to plushies & pillows on the seats. They were full when we arrived but within 10 minutes we were seated & had the best breakfast of our trip.
Charming crêperie serving a mix of sweet & savoury dishes. The drink menu is extensive. The inside is decorated with kawaii plushies & other Japanese motifs. The staff are kind & professional.

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! 💚🐾
All-round great spot to get breakfast. Service could be slow depending on how busy it gets. For example, we arrived during a bit of a lull but 15 minutes later 4 or 5 tables arrived in quick succession. The table of two beside us left because the sole server didn't quite get to them fast enough. Nevertheless I found the service to be efficient. Would definitely return for breakfast.
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!
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!
