Risto K., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on September 29th, said: "Wonderful place!!! I love crapes and this place has many, and they are fantastic. The menu has few standard ones and pairings of flavors are good. I love cheese and blue cheese in particular."
Yelper Samantha J. added: “Came here to get a little studying done and I have to say I really loved the space! I was able to study without headphones in while enjoying my matcha latte and the breakfast sandwich.”
And Michael M. said: "Crepes, crepes, crepes! I love me some good crepes! I was pretty excited when I read about Merchant on Eater Houston. I love coffee and crepes, and the best part, and they have an interesting selection."
