What is Marion Crepe? The Birth of Japan's First Crepe Specialty Shop

Marion Crepe started out in 1976 with a small wagon in a parking lot on Park Avenue in Shibuya, Tokyo, as the first crepe specialty store in Japan.

Later, in 1977, Marion opened a store on Takeshita-dori in Harajuku, and since then has been loved by many people for many years. The store is also known for being the first in Japan to offer "paper-wrapped crepes," and this style of crepe is now a popular staple of the crepe.

The secret of the crepe's deliciousness: sticky dough and aromatic original flavors

Marion Crepes' dough contains flavors that enhance the original sweet aroma.

The aroma wafting from the freshly baked crepes is so appetizing just by standing in front of the store that it is reputed to keep customers coming back again and again.

The dough's sticky texture is also appealing, and it goes well with a variety of ingredients, from sweets to meals.

Tried the new "Choco Mint Crepe"! A perfect balance of sweetness and freshness

We were served a new product, the "Choco Mint Crepe". The crepe is filled with chocolate mint ice cream and brownie cream in a well-balanced manner, and the sweetness of the chocolate and the freshness of the mint are in perfect harmony.

Because the crepe dough is sticky, the ice cream inside does not overflow even if you take your time to eat it, and we were able to enjoy it beautifully until the end.

An extensive menu of more than 70 varieties: from sweets to meals

Marion Crepe's menu has more than 70 varieties!

Not only sweet crepes with plenty of whipped cream and fruits, but also meal crepes such as chicken and tuna are available.

The menu offers a wide variety of crepes to suit your mood, from hearty meal crepes for when you are hungry to sweet crepes for dessert.
