I looooveee Torchon. I take all my friends and family there! I love the food, atmosphere, being greeted with a bonjour mademoiselle and the price is affordable ranging from around $5 for like a lemon sugar crepe to $15 for the more fancier ones. I have tried most of the crepes on the menu and so far so good! I’m definitely going to keep going

I’ve been here twice now and each time has been absolutely fantastic! The first time I came was for a dinner with my classmates in my high-school French class. There were about 30 of us total and service was not compromised, they went out of their way to treat us with great service and French charm (one of the waiters particularly stole one of my friend’s heart!).

I came back here yesterday to have the Latine galette, which is a vegetarian savoury crepe with a ratatouille and pesto filling and yes, it was just as delicious as it sounds! My two friends both had the banana, honey and almond crepes and they were practically licking their plates.

It was lunch hour when we went and the cafe was pretty full, it took a while for our menus to be brought to us but they nonetheless made up for it with friendly service. And who doesn’t love being called “Mademoiselle” by a beautiful Gallic man every now and then ;)

Absolutely love this restaurant. Makes me feel I am back eating in Paris. The three cheese galette here is heaven, wonderful pate also.
Try to meet people for lunch or dinner here as much as possible, love the atmosphere – the cobbled path and decor is all part of the enjoyment.

We took a group of 8 for Sunday breakfast. Coffees took more than half an hour to make and were cold. Two breakfasts were completely missed out and guests had to sit and watch everyone eating. Two other orders were incorrect. Galettes were like cardboard. Staff rudely argued when we paid to leave. Avoid this place at all costs!

I went for lunch there with a friend during the week. The Salad Nicoise was really delicious and good value for money – a good size and just right for lunch. And service was quick. Very friendly and pleasant staff. Will be going there with my husband to try the Beef Bourbignon tonight.

Just an average Saturday lunchtime but wait for 1 hour to be served! Others came in after seemed to be served first (really annoying). Cant say what the food is like because we couldnt wait any longer. may be the place to go if you need somewhere to sit for a few hours!

Tried this place last week – nice warm haven on a rainy Auckland day. Have seen it & been meaning to go. Lovely french staff – very authentic. Authentic french menu (prepare for rich food!) Crepes were extremely tasty.

Run by the French, despite that food very good. View of possibly the hardest working meter maid in town. Saw the guy ticket 4 vehicles while we were having crepes. Only there 20 minutes. Don’t park outside.

Suggest you don’t arrive at closing time otherwise you’ll get a lot of woo woo woo & la la la. Nice people wish them best of luck with their venture.
