The Perch

My wife and I went to the Perch earlier today for the first time. We ordered the Perch, the Mexicana, ane the Lemon Sugar crepes. The crepes were consistently well made, and all three were delicious (especially the latter two)! The atmosphere was nice and cozy. We would most certainly become regulars if we lived on that side of town!

This place has become a favorite mother-daughter brunch spot for my daughter and I. The menu is simple, but offers every permutation of crepe or omelette you can dream of. I was sad when they took the sauce out of the mushroom crepe, but I just dont order that anymore. The grits are also fantastic. Update for 2022: still consistently great food at reasonable prices.

Was staying at a hotel nearby and wanted to grab some breakfast and Perch popped up while doing a quick search. It's a small location with outside dining. I ordered a mexicana crepe that included chorizo and my wife had the cinnamon apple crepe. We both ordered a coffee, I had a pour over and she had an iced caramel apple coffee (or something like that). We were given a number and sat at a table and waited for our food. Once the food and coffees came we were both every happy and I have to say neither of us were disappointed! Food was excellent and the staff was friendly. I would go back again in a heart beat.

Their drinks are a scam. I recently went in and ordered a chai tea latte. They have these massive coffee machines and a huge prep space, and for about $5+ I thought I'd be getting something new. Nope. The girl pulls out a box of Oregon chai tea latte mix, adds some oatmilk and ice, and there's my $5+ drink. Mind you, a box of Oregon chai tea latte mix is literally $4, and makes over 10 servings. What's the point of all the coffee machines if you're using boxed pre-made drinks? What other coffee drinks do they make that are just pre-made? Used to go here semi regularly, refuse to go back since. Their crepes ARE delicious though if you're wanting just food. Don't support their beverage scam though.
