Crepes & Waffles



One of our favorite restaurants here is Crepes & Waffles.  If you come to Bogota, we promise to take you there!  The first restaurant opened in Bogota in 1980.  It began as a restaurant that served crepes, waffles, & ice cream, but they have extended their menu to include soups, salads, crepes of all different kinds (my favorite is the Mexican), bread bowls, & pitas of all different varieties.  Without a doubt, they have the best ice cream in town & everyone agrees on this!  They also have delicious fruit juices. The restaurant has now extended to other cities in Colombia & other countries:  Peru, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Venezuela, & Spain.  I think it would do well in the USA too, but no locations yet!

One other interesting fact is that all locations in Colombia only employ women, so there are no male cooks, cleaners, etc.  This is aimed to employ single moms, or other women who are head of their households.  Below is a combination of photos from our collection & the internet!

Some locations are in a mall, but not all, & there is a location in the airport & in the US Embassy here!
