Once in a while, the craving for something sweet and comforting hits in the middle of the day—and when it does, a good crepe is hard to beat.
That’s exactly the kind of treat we were after when we stopped by What’s Crepe, a cozy creperie tucked into a quiet shopping plaza on Flamingo and Durango.
Small and unassuming from the outside, this little spot serves up big flavor, friendly vibes, and a few surprises that make it well worth a visit.
A Local Secret Worth Discovering
What’s Crepe has been around for a while now, quietly building a loyal customer base in the southwest Las Vegas community.
It’s located next to a hookah lounge, and many of its guests grab a sweet bite before or after a hookah session, often gathering casually in the lot outside.
The space inside is modest, with only a handful of seats, so it’s more of a pickup spot—but that hasn’t stopped it from becoming a local favorite.
Despite the size, there’s something comforting and familiar about the place. The vibe is chill, the staff is kind, and the smell of fresh batter and sugar makes you instantly glad you stopped by.
Fresh, Fun, and Made to Order
The menu at What’s Crepe goes far beyond your basic crepe shop.
They serve Belgian waffles, ice cream parfaits, refreshers, and matcha drinks, all made to order with fresh ingredients.
You can see your crepe being prepared right in front of you, which adds a nice personal touch and builds anticipation for that first bite.
And if you’re not in the mood to dine in—or if you’re in a hurry—they offer online ordering for both pickup and delivery, making it easy to get your treat fix any time of day.
A Classic Favorite: Nutella, Banana & Strawberries
We began with a timeless option: the Nutella crepe with bananas and strawberries.
It’s a popular combo for a reason—rich, sweet, fruity, and incredibly satisfying.
The crepe was delicate and thin, just slightly crispy on the edges, and folded around generous portions of gooey Nutella and fresh fruit.
Each bite was warm, indulgent, and perfectly balanced in texture and flavor.
The Star of the Show: Crêpe Brûlée
Looking to try something unique, we asked the staff for a signature item.
Without hesitation, the girl at the counter smiled and said, “You have to try our Crêpe Brûlée. That’s what we’re known for.”
This special crepe features fresh strawberries, luscious crème brûlée custard, graham cracker crumbs, and whipped cream, all topped with a layer of torched sugar—just like the classic French dessert.
Watching the sugar get caramelized to a golden crackle right before your eyes is worth the visit alone.
The flavor was every bit as impressive as the presentation.
It was warm, creamy, and crispy with just enough crunch from the brûléed sugar to make each bite feel indulgent and special. A standout dish that truly lives up to the hype.
Fun Touches: Board Games for All Ages
One of our favorite discoveries at What’s Crepe? They offer a selection of board games for guests to enjoy while waiting or eating.
Whether you’re visiting with kids, friends, or on a casual date, this thoughtful addition adds a relaxed, community feel to the space.
Games like Connect Four, Uno, or classic card decks are on hand to turn your visit into more than just a quick snack stop—it becomes a small experience.
It’s a perfect way to pass the time and connect with those you’re sharing your treat with.
Friendly Staff and a Warm Welcome
Another highlight of our visit was the warm and friendly service.
The staff was helpful, approachable, and clearly passionate about the food they’re preparing.
They offered great suggestions, answered our questions with enthusiasm, and made the experience feel personal and inviting.
I love when a simple food run turns into something memorable. The girl behind the counter wasn’t just doing her job—she was excited to share their best dish, and she made me feel like a regular, even though it was my first time in. That’s the kind of local touch that keeps people coming back.
Final Thoughts: A Must-Try Local Gem
In a city known for glitz, glam, and big-name dining, it’s easy to overlook the smaller spots quietly making magic on a smaller scale.
What’s Crepe is one of those places—a charming, locally owned gem serving up delicious food, friendly service, and a little something extra that keeps it feeling special.
Whether you’re in the mood for a Nutella crepe, curious to try their signature Crêpe Brûlée, or just want to sip a matcha drink while playing a round of cards with friends, What’s Crepe delivers.
It’s sweet. It’s satisfying. And most of all—it’s local. Add this spot to your list of Las Vegas go-tos, especially if you’re in the Flamingo and Durango area looking for a feel-good treat that hits the spot.
