St. Louis Brunch Guide

The Best Brunch in St. Louis Starts with a Crêpe

Crepes & Treats in the Central West End — where every weekend morning becomes a reason to celebrate.

When St. Louis locals ask "where should we go for brunch?", one answer keeps coming up: Crepes & Treats. Nestled inside Hotel Indigo at 4630 Lindell Blvd in the Central West End, we've built a reputation as the city's go-to creperie for weekend mornings, slow Sunday starts, and midweek breakfast treats. Our menu of handcrafted sweet and savory crêpes is designed to feel indulgent without being heavy — the kind of meal that makes a morning feel like a real occasion.

What Makes a Great St. Louis Brunch?

Great brunch is about more than the food — it's about the entire experience. It's the warm welcome when you walk through the door, the smell of fresh crêpe batter on a hot griddle, the moment your order arrives looking even better than you imagined. At Crepes & Treats, we bring all of that together in a setting that feels both relaxed and special.

The Central West End is the perfect backdrop for it. The neighborhood's tree-lined streets, proximity to Forest Park, and eclectic energy make it one of the best places in St. Louis to linger over a late morning meal. Whether you've just finished a run along the park's paths or you're starting your weekend slowly over coffee and crêpes, our location on Lindell Blvd puts you right in the heart of everything.

Our Brunch Menu: Sweet, Savory & Everything in Between

Unlike traditional brunch menus built around eggs Benedict and bottomless mimosas, Crepes & Treats offers something more distinctive. The crêpe is the star — a thin, delicate vessel that carries flavors from classic French inspiration to bold American innovation. Our full menu includes options for every taste preference:

Bananas Foster Crêpe

Caramelized bananas in butter, cinnamon & brown sugar with house-made vanilla whipped cream.

Strawberry & Nutella Crêpe

Fresh strawberries, creamy Nutella, chocolate sauce, and vanilla whipped cream.

Ham & Cheese Crêpe

Black Forest ham, Swiss cheese, sautéed peppers & onions, Dijonnaise sauce.

Smoked Salmon Crêpe

Smoked salmon, goat cheese spread, red onion, everything seeds, and house salad.

Bananas Foster French Toast

Seasonal specialty with the same indulgent caramelized banana profile.

B.B. Crêpe

Black Forest ham, Brie, raspberry sauce, and a crisp house salad.

Not sure where to start? Our Bananas Foster Crêpe is the undisputed crowd favorite — caramelized bananas cooked in butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar, drizzled with caramel sauce, and finished with house-made vanilla whipped cream. It's the kind of dish that earns its own Instagram post. For those who prefer savory, the Smoked Salmon Crêpe with goat cheese and red onion is an elegant, satisfying choice.

Brunch Near Forest Park: The Perfect Pairing

One of St. Louis's greatest pleasures is spending a morning at Forest Park — and Crepes & Treats is perfectly positioned to be part of that experience. Whether you fuel up before a morning at the St. Louis Zoo or wind down after a walk through the Missouri Botanical Garden corridor, our Lindell Blvd location puts you at the park's doorstep.

We're also a short walk from the Forest Park–DeBaliviere MetroLink station and steps from Hotel Indigo's lobby, making us accessible whether you're a St. Louis resident or a visitor staying nearby. See our FAQ for full directions and parking details.

Brunch for Everyone: Families, Dates & Solo Diners

Brunch culture thrives when a restaurant makes every type of guest feel genuinely welcome. At Crepes & Treats, we serve families with young children (kids love our sweet crêpes), couples looking for a charming morning date spot, solo diners with a book and a coffee, and groups of friends catching up over plates worth lingering over. There's no dress code, no rush, and no pretension — just exceptional food in a neighborhood that knows how to enjoy itself.
