The Normandy French Creperie, Canggu

Reza

The NORMANDY French Crêperie, nestled in the serene surroundings of Jl. Semat Raya No. 8, Canggu, Bali, is a delightful culinary gem that promises an authentic taste of France. With a menu that features a variety of crêpes, including the classic Crepe Butter and Sugar with a refreshing lemon wedge, and the indulgent Crepe Nutella, this eatery has quickly become a favorite among locals and tourists alike.

One visitor shared their initial skepticism about the restaurant’s bold claims, stating, “This place has a sign outside boasting ‘The crepes are better than in France’ and ‘The best crepe of the universe,’ so reading that I scoffed and walked past. Something stuck in the back of my mind, and when my friend and I needed a quick dinner we figured we’d give it a go.” To their surprise, they found the crepes to be “really excellent, with the crepes light, with simple but delicious fillings.” The relaxed atmosphere, complemented by minimal road noise, made for a pleasant dining experience. They concluded, “Definitely don’t regret giving this place a chance.”

Another patron expressed their love for the establishment, stating, “Loved this place! Was craving eggs without heavy bread and the galette hits the spot for this, delicious, perfectly crispy and good honest food without fuss.” They did wish for earlier opening hours for breakfast but were eager to return for the sweet crêpes.

A lunch visitor raved about their experience, saying, “I ordered Oceane for the first time and wow it’s tasty! Love the buckwheat crepe or galette! The vibe is nice, chill, very friendly chef originally from Normandy. Really, a good experience! I recommend!”

Another review highlighted the mouthwatering flavors of the crêpes, noting, “Although I am not French and not familiar with authentic French Galettes, the taste of their crepes is so mouthwatering! We have tried ham and cheese, salmon, beef (tastes like a crepe burger), and tuna (for capsicum lovers), butter sugar, and chocolate—all of them so delicious.” They appreciated the slow-paced lunch atmosphere, especially with the Thursday promotion of a free sweet crêpe and lunch bundles until 3 p.m. The reviewer praised the reasonable prices for Canggu, stating, “In addition, atmosphere, service, parking—everything makes you feel welcome and pleased. Definitely must try food and place.”

With a perfect score of 5.0 for both food and service, and an inviting atmosphere rated at 4.7, The NORMANDY French Crêperie is a must-visit for anyone seeking a taste of France in Bali. Whether you’re in the mood for a savory galette or a sweet crêpe, this charming spot is sure to satisfy your cravings.

Hey there! So, I recently checked out The NORMANDY French Crêperie in Canggu, Bali, and let me tell you, it was an absolute delight! This place has got some serious vibes going on. The food? A perfect 5.0/5.0! The service? Yep, another 5.0/5.0! And the atmosphere? A cozy 4.7/5.0 that makes you feel right at home.

I went there for lunch and ended up ordering a few things: the Crepe Butter and Sugar with Lemon Wedge, an Aqua Bottle (600ml), and of course, the Crepe Nutella. Everything was delicious! Seriously, I’ve never had a crêpe like that before—kudos to the chef! It was just perfect! Oh, and I forgot to mention my drink preference (hot/ice tea), but the restaurant reached out to me via chat to confirm. Plus, they even gave me honey as a gift because I mentioned I was feeling a bit under the weather. How sweet is that? It totally made my sick day better!

Other diners were raving about their experiences too. One friend mentioned, “I went with my friend to try the galette. I wasn’t familiar with this dish, and I thought the portions would be small, but turns out they were huge! I had the smoked salmon, and I loved the cheese. I’ll definitely try the sweet crêpes next time!”

Another guest said, “The crêpes are really good, just like you can find in France! Highly recommend this restaurant if you’re craving a good French crêpe. Both galettes and crêpes are great. My personal favorite is the special! The owner is super nice too. Thank you!”

Someone else added, “Loved this place! I was craving eggs without heavy bread, and the galette hit the spot—delicious, perfectly crispy, and good honest food without fuss. Just wish it opened slightly earlier for breakfast. I’ll be back to try the sweet crêpes!”

And I couldn’t agree more! I’m so glad I stumbled upon this gem. It’s a lovely escape from the hustle and bustle of Canggu. The atmosphere really makes you feel at home, and you can tell there’s a lot of love put into the food. The crêpes are cooked to perfection—light and airy with plenty of toppings to choose from. The best part? The owner, Greg, is super friendly and goes out of his way to make sure every guest feels right at home. 🙂

All in all, if I find myself back in Bali, you can bet I’ll be returning to The NORMANDY for another round of those amazing crêpes!
