Crema's Take

Tucked right next to Key West's legendary Blue Heaven, this charming French café holds its own with exceptional crepes and paninis alongside solid breakfast fare that keeps locals returning for their morning cappuccino ritual. The real magic happens on the patio, where friendly staff and stellar people-watching views create the perfect slow-sit atmosphere for lingering over wine happy hours or a leisurely breakfast featuring standout dishes like salmon-filled omelettes and the divine La Biquette salad. It's the kind of place that feels like a genuine neighborhood gem rather than a tourist trap, earning its reputation as a family-friendly spot where exceptional service matches the food's quality.

Went for happy hour, buy one get one glass of wine - great deal! The salad I got was absolutely divine - La Biquette. Sat on the patio people watching. Very friendly staff.

This small French restaurant somehow manages to survive right next to the legendary Blue Heaven, which naturally made us curious enough to stop by and see how it compares. We came in for breakfast and ordered the eggs Benedict, a salmon and brie sandwich, and a sweet crepe with fruit. The crepe was easily the highlight - nicely done. The rest of the dishes could use a bit more finesse. The sandwich arrived with onions even though we had asked for them to be removed, which felt like an easily avoidable miss. The eggs on the eggs Benedict were also overcooked, lacking the runny yolk that usually makes the dish. Overall, if we stopped by again it would probably be for the crepes. For the rest of the breakfast menu, the neighbor next door at Blue Heaven still has the edge.

The La Mar omelette had chunks of salmon in it and served hot! I added spinach to it for extra flavor. The bread was room temperature. I always enjoy a salad for breakfast with a wonderful dressing. THE BENEDICT GALETTE is a whole wheat crepe with sliced salmon. It was tasty, but real salmon meat on the La Mar was better in my opinion. Fresh squeezed orange juice with pulp complemented nicely. Great patio tables to watch the world go by.

Great crepes and even better paninis — this place was a pleasant surprise. We absolutely loved the smoked salmon paninis — easily the standout of our meal and something I’d happily come back for again. The sweet crepes were also excellent and hit the spot perfectly. The savory crepes we tried didn’t quite shine in comparison, but they were still good and enjoyable. Croques and coffee were solid as well — no complaints there. Overall, the food delivered, especially for breakfast or a light brunch. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the service was genuinely warm and attentive. We sat inside, but there are also nice street-side seating options if you want to soak in the vibe outside. One small but important heads-up: bathroom availability is very limited. So this is not the place to count on for a restroom stop before, during, or after your meal — plan accordingly and find another spot nearby if that’s on your list. Bottom line: Great spot for paninis, sweet crepes, and coffee in a friendly setting. If we’re back in town during breakfast hours, we’ll absolutely return — mainly for that smoked salmon panini.

A beautiful setting with outstanding service! The food is remarkable and excellent! We went there every morning for cappuccino and pastries, and sometimes a bigger breakfast. Do not pass this place up! Our favorite breakfast location in Key West!!
