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.

Spanel Crepes & gourmets was a fantastic find after our other favorite crêpe shop in Montreal has closed. The crêpes were absolutely delicious. Light & tasty. We ordered the IDS for the savory & the Titan for the sweet. The owners were very friendly to a couple of hungry Americans. Mercy, au revoir Montreal. We would highly recommend eating here.

The restaurant entrance looked quite simple, but as soon as we walked in, we felt a special warmth & friendliness - & the hostess definitely played a key role in that. We started with delicious mimosas & pour-over coffee, & the two crêpes we ordered from their diverse menu were, in my opinion, the best we've had in our three years in Montreal - they truly made our day. Highly recommended!

What a hidden gem in Montreal! The crepes here are truly amazing…one of the best we had so far (highly recommend the Martiniquaise). We also tried two savoury crepes for breakfast, & everything was fresh, flavourful, & beautifully prepared.

You can feel the care & hard work in every detail. The service was warm & attentive. The owner was very kind, honest, & offered us great recommendations from their menu, & made us feel welcome.

A wonderful experience all around for me & my partner! Highly recommend stopping by if you're in Montreal

A cute & charming restaurant with one of the best selections of crêpes in town! Everything was absolutely delicious, & the staff were incredibly friendly & welcoming.

I especially loved the little garden in the back-perfect for enjoying a quiet moment on a warm day.

Highly recommend for anyone craving a delicious sweet or savoury crêpe.
Enjoy!

Spanel did not disappoint!

The ambience was lovely, & the staff were both attentive & knowledgeable. I had the special crepe of the day, which came with a mimosa & a delicious soup-such a great combo.

The crepe itself was next-level: Serrano hamon, roasted cherry tomatoes, spinach, arugula, goat cheese, all wrapped in a buckwheat crepe with a perfectly fried egg on top. The staff recommended adding maple syrup-& wow, that took it over the top!

I'm definitely going back to try more from the menu. Highly recommend!
