Whether you’re celebrating Bastille Day or just need an afternoon snack, head to these spots for craveable crêpes in Westchester.
Celebrated every July 14, Bastille Day marks the storming of the infamous French prison of the same name and the beginning of uprising that paved the way for France’s new republic. While Paris celebrates with parties and military parades, treat yourself to crepes — sweet or savory, we won’t judge — at these local spots around town.
Little Crepe Street
29 E Main St, Mt Kisco; 914.242.0200
One of Chef Bonnie Saran’s “little” marvels, this chic and cozy exposed brick eatery gives crêpes a new spin (tikka masala, anyone?). Accompany your meal with a fresh, in-house-made lassi.

Petite Bretagne
152 Mamaroneck Ave, Mamaroneck; 914.315.1157
If you’re craving an extra authentic French experience, you’ll find it in a quaint café in Mamaroneck that satiates the need. With cooking that comes from the French region of Brittany, there is no shortage of delights to be found. And if you walk along the shoreline of Harbor Island Park with one eye closed (crepe in hand, natch), you maaaaay just fool yourself into thinking it’s the Seine.
