Working across the road from the Elliot Street Stables is a definite bonus, especially when you have a boss that likes crepés as much as I do. Many a work breakfast meeting has been held at Torchon, the service is fantastic, the food is to die for and the coffee and cider are delicious. However, I think the most important thing to note is that the staff are all French and they don't laugh at you when you attempt to pronounce things in French. I first started coming here a year ago when I fell madly in love with one of the waiters - he has since gone back to France but the crepés here are too good to not have, and so, I put on a brave face, sit down and order from a wide range of crepés and galettes to ease the pain. The rubharb and cream crepe is especially good and the old fave , lemon and sugar is good to....oh, the list goes on. The French cider is divine and definitely worth a try.. and don't get me started on the wines. Go there. It's a must.

Superb :)

A French restaurant with French waiters is instantly more appealing. Torchon is full of charm and perfectly situated inside Elliot Stables. A small menu but full of the classics. Have tried both savoury and sweet crepes and not sure I could pick a winner of the two they were both so good. They're not skimpy on the fillings either which is a bonus. Bonus points: they have crème brulee on the menu which is my favourite.

Great :)

A highlight of Elliott Stables with quick service and a nice selection of crepes. Authentic feel with French waiters. C'est bonne!

Neat :)

Nothing beats a good crêperie, especially one that does fantastic galettes and Torchon does both, brilliantly. As well as the food, you'll find yourself swimming in it's wonderfully authentic French atmosphere.    Tip: Galettes are gluten-free, handy if you're a coeliac

Another great one is La Cantine on Ponsonby Rd. Creperie during the day, full restaurant in the evening. They also have amazing escargot.

Torchon is in the elliot stables complex; the parking can be a bit of a pain but you can get free parking at Atrium on Elliot with purchase. The gallettes are beautiful with simple authentic fillings and good value at under $20 a throw. Not sure if they still do their raclette nights but I'd heard from friends that they were great
