Simply Crepes Raleigh

Simply Crepes is a full-service casual restaurant on Honeycutt Road in north Raleigh, built around what it calls a progressively traditional French Canadian farmhouse experience. Recipes are made from scratch, the menu is seasonal and homespun, and the whole family is the audience here.

Despite the name, there is more than crepes: French toast, sandwiches, and beignets, plus a full coffee and spirits bar. Breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner are all served here, and the kitchen caters events as well. Every plate is meant to arrive fresh and handcrafted.

What to know

• Kids eat free at the restaurant on Fridays.
