The most adorable little place! We had two savory crepes and one dessert crepe, and they were all absolutely fantastic. They use fresh ingredients and prepare them flawlessly. It's a tiny place but it's absolutely charming - very friendly, independent, and cozy. There are also plenty of nearby parking options. Can't wait to go back!
We tried several of the menu items, and wow - everything was so fresh and tasty ... a great mix of flavors in all dishes. And the French onion soup is out of this world.
Cefran was very flavorful, highly recommend the Teuf, it was sooooooooooooo good 👍 the chestnut puree has the perfect amount of sweetness, will definitely be back 😋
What a great little brunch spot! Everything was amazing. The service, the ambiance but most importantly the FOOD! The portions are perfect. I had the kalifornication toastie with a poached egg. The kiddos had the Nutella and banana crepe which they loved.
A great little downtown Hamilton spot serving up Aussie-French fusion cuisine. We had the Teuf, a sweet creation, and the Aussie, a delicious toastie. We rounded our brunch off with a fantastic cafe au lait and French pressed coffee. The service was excellent, and the vibe was laid back. Check this place out; highly recommended.
Fantastic spot! Service was delightfully awesome and food was phenomenal 👌 I had the Meuf crepe and my friend got the CBA crepe and they were both divine!!! 10/10 we WILL be back!!!
This is a very small Aussie-French style bistro. Please make reservations before arriving. We were driving around looking to try a new place and did not expect that - but we were happy to come back 30 mins after a nice walk around the block. If you are driving, you can park on the street or use the public parking lot at the corner. The food and service were excellent, the two ladies working there were very cordial, and the menu looked very inviting for two hungry people. I got the Aussie breakfast while the missus got a special sandwich - we both got some boozy coffees to keep us going while the food was being prepared. We got one with Kahlua and one with Baileys. The food and drinks were delicious. The prices are slightly on the expensive side. Everything came up to about 75 CAD, including a 15% tip.
My last stop of this visit - a short week to see my family before I get to work on the other side of the world. I was so glad to be brought here because as I told Trish (the owner and chef of Verlan) this is THE BEST meal (CRÊPE TÉVÉRI) I've had this visit (considering all the other ones were not bad either) The crepe was beautifully crafted with spinach, mushroom, goat cheese, avocado and egg, it was rich in flavor, leaving your stomach a nice satisfaction as you walk out of this little cafe. Love this hidden gem in dt Hamilton, I would def ask to come here again on my next visit!
Stopped here for breakfast last week. The experience was wonderful, the food was wonderful. My only gripe was that the croque Monsieur was prepared with an (Australian toastie?) bun that reminded me of a hot dog bun. Not unpleasant, but I was saddened to have to continue the search for the perfect French croque Madame.
I love coming here with my friends for brunch - its such a lovely, welcoming environment. Service is always great. Above all, the food is sooooo good. I got savoury crepes both times Ive come here and they are amazing. I also got the french press coffee and crème brûlée both times. 10/10
What a little gem. I stumbled across Verlan and wow am I ever glad. I dont go to Barton Street often...but that will change. Fabuloys food, amazing service and a quaint setting. Give them a try! The Hamilton food scene is still alive and well. Parking: There is a lot beside and plenty of street parking. Not expensive.
Is this Hamiltons best kept secret? 4 of us dropped in for lunch. I ordered the crepe special with ingredients that included serious amounts of double smoked bacon, mature cheddar, an egg, and a blue cheese aioli. Never have I had such a delicious crepe. It was preceded by an appetizer-sized French onion soup that was outstanding. The dessert crepe did not disappoint either - salty caramel and walnuts. I cant recommend this place highly enough.
Im proud to say that i chose this place for brunch. Would highly recommend based on service and quality of the food Food
Ahhhhh que la vie est belle! Want a Paris vibe and a French connection? The atmosphere is warm and cozy and inviting! The food is to die for. Until I can return to visit Paris, I ll be stopping in this amazing local resto for my fix. See you there :)
The crepe gratinee Aussie and Le Jardín are absolutely amazing!!!! Great service, clean! Love the atmosphere!
Love this place. Food is delicious, made from scratch, service is great too. Very personable
It was average, had the vegetarian crepe cant say it was the best thing Ive ever had. The mother/daughter were kind and courteous.
Trish was absolutely lovely, helped explain the menu and everything. Its such a lovely little place and it smelt amazing from the moment I opened the door, and not surprisingly the food was even better
Really like their food and services. Must try French Onion soup Food : 5/5
Love the savory and sweet crepes here! Got the Kainri and really enjoyed it. Followed up with the fruit crepe. Great brunch spot. Very friendly service
I visited Verlan with a friend and it was lovely. The atmosphere was really quaint and the decor is lovely. The food tasted good and the service was excellent. It is a higher priced menu for such light items but that seems to be the case with many restaurants these days. I would definitely return for a special occasion. The only downside was that the tables are quite close together so you couldn t have a very private conversation - and could hear your neighbors conversations quite easily. Parking was a little trickier to find and we ended up using a local lot which was easy to access but on the expensive side.
Im so glad I discovered this amazing gem. Went to try a new brunch spot and have been going back quite a bit. Atmosphere is quaint, service is awesome. They know me by name now I love the food here. The flavours are so harmonious, they almost sing. GET THE BAKED CREPES
What a lovely breakfast! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The ambiance is so cute and reminiscent of a little French crepe shop. The French press coffee was delicious. We had an assortment of crepes and they were all delicious. CBA and Teveri were some of our favorites. Absolutely would recommend coming here, we will be back again anytime we are in town.
Nice little cafe/bistro. Had the onion soup, the kimchi panini and the lemon-sugar crepe. The kimchi panini is like a spicy grilled cheese that was entirely satisfying. Ill be thinking about that lemon-sugar crepe later on - and will likely be back for it again. The staff are lovely and personable. Vegetarian options: The k-pop toastie is a kimchi grilled cheese - its very good.
The place is really small, but has a wonderful atmosphere and delicious food!
Amazing.
Went there today for lunch 12pm Excellent service. Great menu choice! Table had crepes- different kinds. Croque Monsieur was excellent. Very clean washrooms- Cute little spot. Make a Rez- limited Seating
A lovely brunch at Verlan. Catching up with a friend on a rainy Saturday, we felt well taken care of without intrusion. The food was delicious, fresh, hot, and beautifully presented. What more can you ask? Parking: There is a large (pay) parking lot steps from the restaurant. Very cheap on the weekend. Theres street parking too but the lot was more convenient in the pouring rain!
I eat food from here often. Highly recommend the Ouf Toastie. The crepes are great too!
Definitely one of my (and my boyfriends!) favourite restaurants! Do yourself a favour and get the Aussie Breakfast with the tomato jam thats made in-house!
We needed a break from the hospital, and walking into Verlan was like walking into the hug we really needed. The food was so delicious, but what we loved most was how welcome we felt. The owner offered us some lively conversation and an experience we will remember.
I stopped in while waiting for my dad at the hospital and had the pleasure of being served by Trish. We had a lovely chat and the food and coffee were even better. It s rare to find a local place that encompasses quality food and quality folks all in one go, and Verlan fits the bill. Give these folks your money, and as Trish says: make a reservation for the weekends!
Excellent service and food. They really care about the quality of the meals!
Restaurant feels like home. Food is amazing, staff are incredibly nice. Couldnt ask for a better breakfast or a better atmosphere. Ive been here a second time now. The feature crepe I had today with the avocado was amazing. The food is so fresh and tastes extremely good. I love restaurants that offer something so unique that is impossible to replicate at home.
It was amazing, my partner and I stopped by around noon and it was divine. Amazing food, great atmosphere, definitely we are coming back to this hidden gem. Food
Amazing food and incredible service. Trish was very kind and took her time to make me feel taken care of and looked after. I m from out of town for work and will be back to bring friends/family to eat at Verlan. Keep being awesome, guys!
Absolutely fantastic!!!! I ve been a few times now and the food and service are consistently excellent. Highly recommend
So cute, cozy and wonderful staff! The food was absolutely delicious. The staff helping us were so warm and delightful. It was a joy to have a late brunch here, will definitely be back. Thank you!
I went to Verlan for the first time on Sunday and oh man, why did I wait so long? Right from the get-go, it was great. I called last minute for a reservation and was told they would hold a table for me as I d be there in about 20 minutes. When my husband and I walked in we were greeted and seated and it was very welcoming. The owner is so nice and friendly and accommodating to a minor substitution on my husband s crepe for a dietary need. These were the best crepes I ve had outside of Paris. I ve been to a few places in Toronto and Niagara Falls and this was the best. They were light and slightly crispy, filled with delicious ingredients (we both had the apple cheddar bacon crepe) and for me I had a perfectly poached egg on top. The grapefruit mimosas were also very good. The whole experience was fantastic and we will most definitely be back and will also be trying their sister restaurant Reunion in Morristown. Thank you for a wonderful brunch. We will be back!!
If you re looking for a crepe, this is the place! Crepes were fantastic, had the CBA, 14/10, highly recommend! Mimosas a plenty and French pressed coffee made this a great meal. The service was also great, very enjoyable and friendly, highly recommended (and the price was right).
My mother and I came here for brunch. The place is super cutely decorated. The owner was very nice and made us feel at home. The server was cool, they had a fun personality. The crêpes were delicious, we got the Aussie breakfast with poached egg and tomato jam. Highly recommend this place and would definitely return to try more of the menu.
Hats off to the chef!! I brought my family here to try their crepes and toasties before my sister flies back to HK; and they did not disappoint! We ordered two crepes: Kainri and Teveri - The crepes had just the right thickness for the savory bacon and sautéed mushrooms in my Kainri. Together with the homemade Tomato jam, the crepe had a perfect balance between sweet and savory. Teveri was on another level, it was very unique and hard to explain. Each bite was creamy and flavorful but not too heavydue to the ingredients such as Avocado and goat cheese. I will definitely order this again even though im not a huge fan of goat cheese. That should explain a lot Soup: French Onion soup was our first taste of the menu, but it depicts whats to come. Most french onion soups that Ive had are usually salty and leaves you drinking lots of water afterwards but not this one at all. The cheese was nice and crispy until you dunk it into the soup to add the umami, essence of the soup, which was a flavor explosion! Toasties: Ouf was good, chicken was juicy and tender, each bite was satisfying and heart warming. It was 3rd on my list today because the crepes were just THAT good, but you cant option this one out. If you want a good afternoon sandwich in a nice and cozy restaurant, I recommend this one. The staff was super friendly, full of smile and made us feel comfortable dining here. Thank you for giving my sister an amazing meal before she has to fly for her business trip and eat some horrendous plane food.
A lovely cozy spot for brunch. My husband and I enjoyed the ouf toastie, cba and trome crepes which were all delicious. We will be back.
Honestly love it. Food is amazing, and they have some really cool pantry items. Vegetarian options: Lots of options and they are super flexible. Food : 5/5 |
The food is delicious! The only drawback is the limited space; its more suitable for a small team lunch. Perfect for a couple of people, or youll need to call and reserve. I believe it can accommodate a maximum group of 10 as it has only 4-5 small tables.
My friend and I went to Hamilton for the day and were looking for a place for breakfast... could not be any happier with the choice we made!! VERLAN was absolutely perfect. Food was delicious and the people were so welcoming. Would gladly go back!!
Dont waste your time. Place is tiny. Cant get a table. Showed up when it opened. Restaurant was empty but still got turned away. Im not going to try anymore. Been turned away from this place more than Ive gotten in.
Great quaint spot with delicious comforting food! The owner and staff work very hard to please everyone in this small venue. If you have to wait to get a seat it is well worth it. This ain t the Mandarin!! Food
Amazing owner and staff, the food is delicious! Definitely a place to check out and revisit.
Wonderful experience. Everyone who works there is very kind and the food was fantastic! Such great flavours and made fresh. One thing I d note is that it is quite pricey for the amount of food you get, I would definitely say I was hungry after my meal. I do understand that food costs are generally high these days
Amazing, cozy little brunch spot with the best crepes and coffee! The staff are so sweet and you can literally watch them make your food. The offer savoury & sweet and have daily specials. The seating is limited, you might want to make a reservation on the weekend.
Verlan is one of my favourite breakfast restaurants! They have something for everyone; whether you are a savoury person or sweet person. The service is amazing too. They make you feel welcome and comfortable. Will definitely be back!
The best savoury crepes I have ever had! Have not tried the sweet crepes but they often bake these delightful small almond flour cakes that are absolutely irresistible. My favourites are the tévéri and the kainri crepe. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the service is very friendly.
My niece raved about this place and couldn t wait to introduce us to this gem. Trish is so friendly and so accommodating. The service was impeccable and the atmosphere was wonderful. To top it all off the food was dancing on my tastebuds. The right amount of food so you re satisfied but not gorged. FYI the Ginger crème du brûlée is amazing
Quint and lovely restaurant. This is also a great place to grab a coffee or go for coffee to. They have a lot of good things here to purchase as well (nice mustard, sodas etc). This place is well worth the visit, has a great atmosphere and the staff are incredibly amazing.
Went here for the first time over the weekend, and the disappointment is that I hadnt visited sooner. The space is beautiful, Trish is the sweetest person ever, and the food was amazing. Several awesome vegetarian options, and an awesome pantry section to pick through.
Verlan is simply lovely. The atmosphere is very modern, clean and cozy to come alone or with friends and family. The owner and staff are very welcoming, and friendly. The coffee and food is amazing, delicious and reasonably priced. Have recommended to family and friends.
My kind of place, casual quaint vibe, friendly service and very delicious food. I only wish it were closer to me.
If I could give this place 1000 stars, I would, I just finished having surgery during a snow storm, and this place shined like a beacon of hope after fasting for 36 hours. The staff was incredible, friendly, informative, and just simply wonderful. The food, oh my goodness, I could eat there for the rest of my life and die fat and happy!! We have agreed to come back at least once a month, we promised!!
10/10 Will definitely be back. Food was stellar and service was wonderful. Highly recommend the ABC special!
Tired for the first time. Great food, also good jams etc to buy
Wonderful selection of crepes! Delicious... cozy atmosphere
Unfortunately, I wasn t too thrilled with my visit. No iced coffee option, which I ve yet to experience before at a brunch restaurant. Very overpriced ($18 crepes) that are tiny. Small selection of food. Bad service. Tight space. You re practically 5cm from strangers on either side. My group ran 15 minutes late, which I totally get is inconvenient and apologized profusely over the phone. Upon arriving, rather than a normal greeting, the waiter rudely mentioned the lateness first thing after we already spoke to the owner on the phone. I didn t end up ordering anything after that service and lack of options, I won t be back.
Super delicious crepes and friendly staff!
I had a bunch of time in Hamilton today as my Mom has some work done at Hamilton General. So I went (as Mick Dundee once said) on Walkabout. I found a WONDERFUL little French inspired lunch spot called Verlan. I had THE BEST French Onion Soup I ve ever had and Toastie served with charm and care by the Australian Mother In Law and Mom of the owners. It was a heart warmer on a cold day in every sense of the word. These folks opened up just as the Pandemic hit so it was a real pleasure to find it and revel in their warmth today. Highly recommended. 304 Barton East.
Absolutely phenomenal. Such a cute atmosphere with high quality ingredients. Best crepes I have ever had. The cheese, jams, béchamel, everything is amazing. Trish is so friendly and attentive. The personal mini French presses are genius and I love that the crème brûlée flavour changes! Only five tables inside so if you want to come I d book a reservation especially if there s more than 2 of you but it is well worth the wait.
Lovely place, friendly, toasties are excellent, home made condiments, only thing that could be improved is the French onion soup required more flavour. Check em out for sure.
This place is a delight! Everything from the decor to the food and the quirky and chatty waiter was exactly what I needed to brighten my day after visiting a sick family member at the hospital.
If lots of butter and cheese is your thing then Verlan is the place for you. I went to have a crepe but since everything looked and smelt so good I ordered one ot there custom sandwichs as well. I had no regrets because both were amazing. Combined with their extremely friendly staff makes this restaurant is a winner.
Lovely owner and staff, great service, fresh and high quality food. The cafe is very small so not a place for large parties but it is perfect for dates!
First time, great atmosphere, great friendly service and great food.
It will be important that you plan to be decisive. There are so many delicious options. Make your selection and either plan to come back soon or influence your companion to order one of your other choices...odds are they will have a hard time making a decision and will appreciate the help so much they will gladly trade you bites.
Fantastic service and food!
We celebrated a friends birthday at VERLAN and were totally satisfied. What a gem of a place...the food was fantastic...the ambiance was relaxing...the hospitality was wonderful.
When I think of breakfast, I want Verlan. There are no bad choices. Perfectly composed plates with multiple iterations of your favourite breakfast friends ( like double smoked bacon, jammy poached eggs, aged cheddar, local maple syrup, buckwheat crepes and so many more). This place is a gem, as is its captain and caretaker, Trish. Youll only be disappointed if you dont make a reservation (reso!). Lastly, put tomato jam on everything!
Very delicious toasty and crepes!
Absolutely amazing food and top notch service. 10/10
Visited for brunch on a sunny long weekend Sunday and thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Cozy atmosphere, super friendly & attentive staff, and fabulous food. Great coffee served in individual French Presses. Try a fresh-baked Friand (we had the lemon blueberry) - so delicious! Can t recommend highly enough. We ll be back!
Go here! This place is amazing. Food and drinks were exceptional. Trish and Anika were so lovely and served us with a smile. Very clean. Very welcoming environment. 10/10 would recommend.
Trish and Anika were lovely and welcoming. Anika went above and beyond to make sure we are taken care off, (thank you!) We went on a rainy sunday afternoon, perfect ambiance, the place is just as lovely and charming as the reviews mentioned. the food amazing, highly recommend the Aussie Crepe with Bechamel and get the tomato jam!!! delicious and decadent. Save room for the suzette for dessert! love discovering local hidden jems like that <3
Best crepes in Hamilton.
Delicious food. Enthusiastic & friendly service. Small outdoor patio. Food : 5/5
First time coming here and I love this place. Everything we tried was delicious and we will be back to try more for sure!
Impeccable service, incredible food and great atmosphere! Wish I could eat brunch here everyday!
Incredibly delicious. Lovely little outside patio, great service. Super awesome servers!!! And did I mention DELICIOUS!
I cannot say I agree with the high rating on this establishment. Absolutely do not believe the hype. The food and service is not exceptionally topnotch but standard to ordinary. There are far more better establishments to visit with similar steep price but with extraordinary menu to highly professional and trained staff e.g., staff are not even wearing any food handling protective equipment as observed nor have seen any hand washing in between handling different foods. How convenient it would be since the HGH ER is across the street. So I would take caution on visiting this establishment. Note: Review is based on real time objective observations and experience during visit. Review is meant as positive criticism for improvement and prevent food related illnesses in the community.
This place deserves all the stars! The food and coffee were amazing and the wait staff was so polite and hospitable.
A wonderfully authentic creperie, the food is delicious and there are many excellent choices. The staff was very friendly and took a lot of time to speak with the diners. The prices are fair, and the atmosphere very inviting. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our visit.
Good options for vegetarian and meat eaters. Small side patio in summer. Menu is mostly crepes and toasties, with many savoury options (not just sweet). A nice change from the standard diner breakfast
Really amazing food and the sweetest owner/staff. A perfect slice of Paris brought to you on Barton St
The best French Onion soup I have every had. Crepes are spectacular and service is extremely friendly. Its like going to a friends house who happens to be a great cook.
Verlan deserves 5+ stars!! The staff are amazing, the food is out of this world ,and the service is fantastic! I cannot say enough great things to describe our experience there. If you are looking for true Parisian crepes & amazing French Onion soup - you will find it at Verlan! Thank you Ladies for a wonderful lunch and exceptional customer service! We will be back!
Spectacular!! Scrumptious crepes! Wonderful service! Will spread the word and be back for sure! Thank you!
We were fascinated everything was delicious. The service was great! It was a little busy but the coffee made it easy to wait. They even serve my kids plate before. Guys, you are great!! Absolutely want to come back and try everything. Kid-friendliness: They have a menu for kids with delicious and smaller options.
Food was great but i ve never had a more rude and unpleasant server in my life. The Wallace from Wallace and Gromit looking server told me to keep my parking money on a 20% tip. Etiquette is lost on this jabroni as she was also trash talking former employees to a table that did not seem to care and wanted to eat their lunch. The server made multiple insulting comments through the duration of my meal, directed towards me. I didn t say a word as I d probably end up climbing on the grill and burning myself to death if I has to interact with such an unnecessarily rude server. The nutella crepe is delicious by the way! Would recommend just maybe get takeout instead.
Amazing crepes and service!! Trish and our server were both so friendly. I can t wait to come back :):)
Food was amazing. Everything is made fresh right in front of you and you can tell the owner has a passion for what she does. Highly recommend anyone to check this place out. There is limited seating but its worth the wait Food
Visited with my partner based off of the great Google reviews during a day trip to Hamilton and our expectations were exceeded! Such a cozy atmosphere, with the modest kitchen open to the space - the highlight however was the service and food! Trish was warm and welcoming - we made some small talk during our visit and she engaged with genuine interest. We ordered the specials (a crepe and a toastie) plus the french onion soup. All were winners! We liked the tomato jam on the crepe so much we bought a jar for ourselves (will be great on burgers!). Will be back next time were in the Hammer for sure.
This is a hidden gem in Barton St, the service is the best, the staff is super friendly and you feel welcomed since the moment you step in. They have a nice menu with savoury and sweet options. Their drinks are nice too and although not a big place it feels cozy. The music selection is great.
Really good crepes! First time going there will come back again for the food. The service my family received was kind of odd. The server we got seemed like she had an issue with us for some reason. When we we re ready to order one of my family members was just asking the server questions about what s in the food and said in a rude tone that if we re not ready to order they ll come back. We were all ready to order I didn t realize asking questions about the food meant we were not. For some reason that server didn t come back we got someone else who was really nice I m not sure if it is the owner but they had a English accent.
Nice little gem of a place. Recommend the CBA.
Always enjoy my visits to Verlan. The staff are all so friendly and always create a welcome environment. The food is sensational! The tomato jam is out of this world!
Ive been to this cozy little gem a number of times now and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is so chill, the food is excellent and the staff and Owner is so welcoming that you feel like you never want to leave. Today I had the toastie du jour that boasted crispy bacon, avocado, aged cheddar, spinach and grilled pineapple and it was superb. I literally couldnt stop saying mmmm out loud. Seriously. go. now.
My wife and I enjoyed our first of many brunches here this morning. We loved the vibe of the place, the food was delicious, and we found the service genuine and warm. The mimosas were delicious, as was the cafe au lait. We traveled to Paris this year and this place 100% took us right back there for an hour. Definitely recommend and will definitely be back.
Love the food, atmosphere and service. Great for a weekend branch! Dietary restrictions: Offering buckwheat option for gluten sensitivity. Parking: Located on a medium traffic street.
The Aussie dish was delicious! Service was friendly and the decor was quaint. I will be back for sure.
Highly recommend! Ordered a latte and a toastie, both delicious. Will be back for the french onion soup! Great place with nice ambiance and friendly staff!
I love this amazing little shop. My wife and I go or order often! I ll always get the Ouf Toastie OR the Toastie Du Jour. I went for crepes but I came out a Toastie fanatic! If you haven t been here, you need to go!!! Also their tomato jam is a must take away!
The first bite was all I needed to know Id visit Verlan a second time.
Great little place. The food was great and the service was amazing. Even put up with me not knowing much about crepes lol. Cant wait to go back.
French cuisine and crepes. Whats not to like. Wonderful staff.
Great atmosphere, service, and food. The perfect trifecta for treating yourself.
Thank you ladies at verlan!! The food is just too amazing to even describe it in words, so great to have a cafe/creperie like this in Hamilton!! And the service is just extraordinary, will recommend it and definetly will be visiting again!!
Lightest crepes Ive ever had and delicious...customer service was fantastic... really cute place and ambiance...my only critique is that the $$ was a bit high for such a light meal
This place and its staff were absolutely fabulous! My new favourite place for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a coffee! Definitely recommend! They do takeout also!
Went here for breakfast crepes. Cozy spot inside and welcoming staff. Quality ingredients, lovely place. Will definitely be back.
Such a quaint place. The Ladies there were fabulous . They took pride in how they treat their customers and the crepes are definitely the best Ive had. Good service , good food. Cant wait to go back
Superb food!!
Absolutely beautiful. Outstanding food and service and fun people to talk to.
Charming & compact atmosphere for simple French dining. Service was prompt and sweet with engaging dialogue. The French onion soup is a must: deep & rich broth with Gruyère cheese that s the perfect bronze, has a stringy stretch. Croque Monsieur crunched and oozed with just a touch of Dijon. We topped off our meal with sweet apple crepe with caramel. We requested our severer to deliver extra sass and we really had fun with that!
They offer savory and sweet crêpes. Authentic French taste with a bit of Aussie influence from the owners. Reservations are highly recommended as seats are limited.
Amazing food and fun creations. Daily specials and friendly staff. Great options for local items to purchase as well.
I find it quite difficult to put into words how wonderful this place is. You feel such a unique warmness upon arriving as if youve stepped into a fairy tale? Anyway, you even forget to sit down because of how mesmerizing the decor is. The amount of effort and detail they put into their space (down to an adorable feather duster!!!!) truly reflects how passionate they are about what they do. You will very much be enthralled in how beautiful the place is and this will only be the beginning. The hospitality was so incredible I wanted to cry. Trish is why this world is still good, and that is an understatement. We were taken such good care of, I cant even. Still cant. Sufficed to say the food was life changing and we left feeling like we did not deserve how good that food was. We split the French Onion soup and the only time Ive ever felt that way was when my husband proposed to me, this was akin to how it tasted. Amazing amazing amazing!! Both of us had the savory crepes that were both served with housemate tomato jam. Flavour profiles were so on point and the dopamine hit real hard with every single bite. Incredibly tasty and rich in taste. Perfect tbh. This place deserves so much recognition for what they bring to Hamilton. Thank you so much for such an experience! Will always be back if you are there
Staffs are nice and quality food
Great quality of food, people are very nice and lovely atmosphere.
Croque Monsieur hit the spot. Side salad was lack luster. Mamoso on point. Check em out.
Delicious food, amazing staff!
We had memos. I had the french onion soup and Aussie breakfast skillet. My partner had Le Jardin. Both were superb. The soup, came hot out of the oven oozing cheese. The skillet was filled with bacon, mushrooms, spinach, bèchamel sauce and cheese with more sauce and cheese on top. Then baked. The flavours linger pleasingly on the palate, its an experience of dining pleasure. Ive had deserts as well, tho not today. The memoa were also lovely. Trish is amazing so friendly so kind.
First time there. Had a fantastic brunch. Great service!
Absolutely fantastic, great food, great service
A really quaint location on Barton. The staff were friendly and informative. My wife had a crepe with Black Forest ham and cheese. I had the chicken toasti. Both were excellent but I found the salad offered with my sandwich more of a garnish than a proper salad.
Verlan is legit! I doubt you ll get a better crepe in Paris. Friendly service and a very cute patio as well. Strongly recommend this little gem.
Wow!! If i could give more than 5 stars I would! My partner and I had brunch here this morning, I got a sweet crepe with nutella and bananas with roasted almonds! Wow it was delicious My partner got the Ouf toastie it was delicious, he didn t want avo though so she came and asked what she could replace it with instead! We also shared the homemade french onion soup, which was absolutely delicious. We also had to purchase a jar of the in house homemade, tomato jam!! Such a cute shop and restaurant! I recommend trying this place for sure! Such amazing customer service! Delicious food and such a welcoming kind environment!
Hidden gem! Dont waste your time scrolling through restaurant options. Order from this place right now! My wife and I ended up here randomly after our original breakfast plans fell through. Lucky us! We loved everything about this place, from the intimate little patio, to the incredibly helpful and friendly staff. AND of course, the food! I didnt even know you could do these kinds of things with crepes! My wife had the aussie breakfast, and I will unabashedly admit I ordered BOTH specials-- a Toastie, and a savory crepe with apple, cheese and bacon. The food looked great and tasted even better. 10/10, will stop here the next time Im back in Hamilton. P.s French press coffee was also excellent.
I was very impressed by this creperie, the food was excellent and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The indoor ambiance was fantastic and there is a wonderful patio. A must-try!
Fantastic place! The crêpes are absolutely delicious and Trish is a wonderful and friendly person. The coffee is also incredible. Will definitely be coming back!
We had an absolutely amazing Lunch at Verlan! The service, cuisine and environment was spectacular! We got lucky as a 6 top without a reservation, and are so happy we got a table! Thanks for the awesome culinary experience! Highly recommend, this is a destination restaraunt! Tayo & Five Alarm Funk :)
This place is incredible! I had the Oef Toastie with a perfectly poached egg added on top, literally perfection! The staff were so down to earth and funny it was such a lovely time. Everything was incredibly fresh and tasty. We live in Vancouver, BC but will be telling anyone travelling to Hamilton about this place, you must east here!
First time with my daughter. Absolutely fabulous food to die for. Crepes sandwiches yum yum yum we will be back 4 sure!!!!
Was having a bad day, but then we found ourselves here and it got infinitely better. We were welcomed with friendly smiles as soon as we walked through the door, and had lovely conversation throughout our meal. The food was absolutely delicious; we had the Pecho crepe and the Crepe Cefran, and we cant wait to return to try some more. Would recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxed cafe atmosphere, humble conversation, and delicious food.
My husband and I went for lunch ! The service ,ambiance , crepes ,deserts, pressed coffee FRENCH Onion soup a must !!! We loved it . Great conversation with the staff . And bringing friends next time. Cute little spot and we suggest to make reservations.
Beautiful little place run by some really lovely people. One of the best crepes I ve ever had in my life (including in Paris!). Highly recommend.
Absolutely outstanding food. The Chicken Toastie was great. The French Onion soup is easily the best soup I ve ever had. Grabbed a jar of the homemade tomato jam and it s replaced ketchup for me.
Excellent. The crepes were delicious, and the service was excellent. Highly recommend the tomato jam! Trish was a gracious and interesting host. The restaurant is very unique and charming.
Lovely little restaurant with fabulous service and delicious food!
Jesse gave amazing service and the food is so so amazing
Delicious food. Our server, Sage was lovely. Cute little place. Reservations are recommended. They are busy.
Happened to chance upon this gem. Loved their crepes - savoury and sweet. Dont miss trying out the French onion soup. Worth every penny. If Trish is the one serving you, youre lucky. She knows how to take care of her customers. Lovely experience overall.
Got two toasties and a crepe to share with my wife and they were absolutely delicious. The toasties were crunchy and had tons of depth in flavour. Tastes like everything is made from scratch with tons of care! The staff was delightful. One thing was missed in our order but before we even noticed we got a call from the owner apologizing for the mistake. We will definitely be making more visits!
Chef Trish makes this French creperie the most romantic and delicious brunch spot in Hamilton! Magnifique!!
I tried this place for the first time yesterday and it was excellent! It s a small place but very cute inside and the food was incredible. We ordered the pécho crepe as well as the crepe du jour and a crème brûlée which was the dessert of the day. We were served quickly and everything was absolutely delicious. I will be returning here for sure.
The staff were so friendly and the service was wonderful. The food is spectacular as well, all around an amazing find!
The place is very cozy, every detail, the music... but the best thing is the warmth of the attention and of course the food, very delicious.
Good food, nice staff, and there is cheap parking nearby ( use the app), had the hearty meal, be coming back for the sweet crepes!
This place is amazing. Small but very cozy and welcoming. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. The food was perfectly prepared and great portions. Hidden gem for sure! 10/10 recommend
Trish is incredible! The food is soul-nourishing, the atmosphere is delicious and and the service is fab! Best Sunday spot for sure Vegetarian options: Many good options.
Beautiful spot! Nutella crèpe was excellent & I cant wait to try my chestnut spread!
Amazing crepes. The owner even offered to make me gluten free - dairy free buckwheat crepes which were delicious.
Having moved from Oakville to Hamilton, we were very excited to see that a sister restaurant to Brontes La Parisienne opened in Barton Village. We finally had the chance to try their amazing take out brunch menu. We cant recommend it enough, their savoury crepes and toasties were amazing, but dont forget to leave space for dessert. The Teuf is divine! This will be a regular spot for us.
Everything about this place is spectacular! Very cute and spacious patio. Super friendly staff. I love the individual French press coffee I got and the berry crepe (I can t remember the actual name of it but it was delicious!) with a scoop of ice cream. Will definitely be visiting this place again soon
Im glad I was able to try out this place that I pass by everyday. The staff was very friendly and the food was amazing! 10/10
Lovely customer service, cute atmosphere and the most delicious crepes.
Came w/ my girlfriend since she had a craving ;was not disappointed! The crepes were fantastic and so was the coffee (or so she said). Service was friendly and the patio was a great place to enjoy our meal. Well be coming back for sure!
What a great experience! Its a small place so you can feel safe going with a friend. The crepes were fantastic! I had the Trome crepes and a mimosa. I will be back!
Delicious food with the most kind staff and owners. Definitely must eat here.
Excellent customer service. Great tasting crepes. Good price. We had the special of the day which was a ham and Swiss crepe with avocado. Sat outside on the patio. Nice experience all around.
Great friendly service, local good, and delicious coffee
Great staff! We were on the patio and got caught in a torrential downpour. The servers quickly helped us move inside. They handled the situation with a great attitude and a good sense of humour! They quickly found a spot for us inside. The place is fantastic in every way! The décor is very class. The menu has a great variety of crepes. Our party of four thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Check out the daily specials: they are great crepes to try! Definitely a place to visit in Hamilton and à place to return to again and again!
Met a friend here for lunch yesterday and we ate outside. Staff was so friendly and we tried some local drinks. We shared a toastie and a crepe both of which were yummy. Then I had the blueberry parfait and it was delicious! I hope it stays on the menu (even if they change up the fruits). Will definitely be back!
Best crepes in the city, and if you have a chance to try the Dark roast coffee, do not hesitate
The most charming little spot. Had a savoury and a sweet crepe and both were equally delicious! All the staff were wonderful, too!
Beautiful experience in this little cute spot! Emilia served us so well and we had great conversations while enjoying our delicious toastini and crepes! We will come back for sure!!
The food was fabulous, the service: spectacular, and the ambiance was amazing. The only regret I have is not going sooner! Definitely go in hungry and get something different than your dining companion, this is a menu where you want to try everything at least once!
Great crepe place for a special occasion. I ve tried three sweet ones (Chamer, Cimer, Teuf), my favourite is the Cimer. The Chantilly cream is so tasty. The interior is gorgeous - if you wanted to impress someone I would take them out for dessert here. But a bit on the pricey side with $10 a crepe.
Delicious authentic crepes and good coffee!
My spouse and I went for lunch last Sunday and well definitely return. Excellent service, atmosphere and our lunch was absolutely delicious! Thank you Verlan staff for making our Sunday extraordinary Cheers!
Excellent crepes and wonderful service. THE place to go for a special Sunday brunch.
Always a great experience! Everything on the menu is delicious! Highly recommend.
It is our first time eating here and just to say that these are the best crepes I ever tried they are really delicious, staff are really friendly and welcoming please if you have the opportunity to stop by, please do.
Excellent staff
I ate here with a friend about a month ago. The crêpes were sooo delicious. A must try. Inside both of ours were the most perfectly browned sautéed mushrooms I have ever seen. They also had a cool selection of drinks. The service was very friendly as well. I will definitely be returning here.
Flavourful meals, cozy atmosphere, amazing service. Will definitely be back!
We had the toasty and the savoury crepe, they were delicious!! The chefs in the kitchen made you feel welcomed. I can t wait to go back! This restaurant is a 10 karat diamond in the rough!
The food, the coffe, and the staff were increadible amazing. I will come back to taste other options.
A must-go weekend brunch spot. Everytime we eat there we leave full and happy
Found this beautiful little gem in the heart of Hamilton, and spent the happiest afternoon enjoying a delicious savory crepe with the best tomato jam! The staff were SO kind, and the chef brought me some vegimite on toast to try because I had never tried it before (it was also delicious) I highly recommend that you treat yourself to this cute little nook when you can. I for sure will be back!
So we joined friends here and I must say it was enjoyable from the moment we entered. After a terrific meal and dessert all accompanied by excellent service we left feeling like one of the family. There is no doubt that we will be back.
Nice atmosphere, excellent service, fantastic food.
Honestly the best brunch / lunch in town. Welcomed at the door, nice cosy eating space. Delicious and varying menu, have already been back twice in the last few weeks. Such a great atmosphere, and brilliant quality of food and service. Cant recommend enough. Take your time and enjoy.
I love checking out new places to eat so I was delighted to discover my favorite creperie in Oakville had expanded and opened a new venture right downtown in The Hammer! The food quality is just the same! You really cant go wrong with savoury crepes loaded with gourmet fillings and the presentation is just beautiful. My son was with me and he was able to choose from a kids menu, although he loves mine too. Unsurprising really with the amount of brie and chicken in it! I did see lighter options, which was nice but i was in the mood for something a little more decadent. If you have room left, sample one of their home made desserts with a french press coffee for that real Parisienne experience.
Amazing food, staff and ambiance. This creperie is a true gem in Hamilton!
First time at this place found it by accident and a great find had the crepes with berries. Being from Montreal must say the best crepes I have had in years. The owner is amazing and was able to accommodate me not wanting butter and dairy. Will definitely go back
Nice and yummy crepes
Super friendly staff, and delicious varieties of crepes . Sweet and savoury
