Little Choc Apothecary

Holy smokes! I ordered the Burrito Crêpe the other day for Breakfast. DELICIOUS! And fast delivery! I look forward to trying everything on the menu! ALL THE CREPES! FTW!

Love this place!
Their coconut latte is the best ever with homemade coconut milk.
Also good juices, amazing pastries and great crepes.

Cute vegan spot in the middle of Williamsburg. The first floor is the café where you can order and simultaneously watch the baristas make fresh crepes and sweets. Their menu include crepes (both savory and sweets), various cookies/​scones that changes daily, coffee (from toby’s estate) and tea. You have to order here before you walk upstairs to the dine-​in area. We decided to order 3 crepes and went upstairs.
The café upstairs is quiet and has huge windows to allow the natural lighting to seep through (perfect for studying). They also offer free water on tap. The wait for your crepes was pretty long (about 20 – 30 minutes) even though there seem to be no wait whatsoever. However, it was worth the wait. Here was what we ordered.
Khail Seitan: A good amount of seitan (for the protein buffs). The seitan tasted like meatballs with the BBQ sauce
Pizza Crêpe (+Coconut bacon): OMG. Give me more! Everything from their cashew cheese to smoky coconut bits tasted absolutely amazing. Definitely our favorite.
Sweet crepes with Newtella, strawberry, & clotted cream: Did not taste as indulgent as we thought. Hazelnut flavor was strong and the clotted cream was a delicious addition.
Would I come here again? Most definitely. My boyfriend and I were fighting for the last piece of the pizza crêpe and contemplated if we should order another one. The crepes here also did not taste as heavy as other crêpe shops (made us feel not as guilty for indulging). The only downside was the wait for crepes was long and the lack of ice cream (I asked for a crêpe to be a la mode and they didn’t have any at the time). However, those are minor mishaps and didn’t really affect my experience here at the little choc apothecary and can’t wait to return.

I am new to the gluten free world and have never been a fan of crepes. My friend suggested this place, and it did not disappoint! I tried both sweet and savory crepes and they were amazing! So many healthy choices! Carmel sauce is healthy right? Doesn’t matter it was so delicious! Large tea selection, which you can purchase and brew yourself at home. Overall a great spot, friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Definitely coming back!

I’ve been wanting to try this place forever and recently had the chance too – twice! The first time, I ordered The Breakfast crêpe (because I’ve never had a non-​desert crêpe) and the newtella banana strawberry crêpe (because of course I had to try the vegan nutella). The Breakfast crêpe was very filling and although I did not really taste the bacon flavor, it was still pretty good. The desert crepes come with two toppings for $ 9.50 and additional toppings for $ 0.50 extra. I liked the newtella banana strawberry crêpe so much that the second time I came back, I got it again! This is definitely the place to go if you’re craving!
P.S– Don’t forget to check in for the 10% off during purchase!

Atmosphere is fun, wish the crepes tasted better. Crepes were a average for me, nothing special to it. You order your food downstairs and they’ll bring it up.

This is a cute place in Brooklyn thats definitely takes pride in the mood of the eatery. Theres a hipster style thats can be seen through the design of the restaurant and the workers who run the place. They are super friendly and make your plate look picture perfect. There’re a lot of juices to choose from and everything is really healthy.
I got the Garden of Eden Crêpe and it was great. My favorite thing here though was definitely the split pea and roasted veggies soup. That would be the reason I come back here and I hope they add that to the menu instead of having it as a special!

YES.
Cutest ambiance, set up, and décor ever.
Crepes are soooo lovely and crave-​worthy. Room for Mushrooms with cashew cheese is a must!!! Had to get seconds. Whether or not you are vegan, these are the best crepes, hands down.
Skip the Rosemary caramel coffee.

I originally wanted to come here to try their crêpe and tea but I was only able to get their tea since I was too full from brunch.
I ordered the Smiles & Sunshine which is according to their website, «A delectable blend of Sencha leaves, lemongrass, lemon balm, ginseng, and sunflower petals. Lemon balm and ginseng decrease stress levels, increase alertness, and increase cognitive ability. This light, citrusy flavor is sure to bring a smile to your face.» It was delicious and soothing. I thought they would offer cup or pot option but they just gave me a pot, not that I’m complaining because the tea was so good.
I also got a earl grey cookie because I like the earl grey flavor. I was a bit thrown off by the lemon in the center of the cookie but it kept the surrounding area moist. The cookie was good but I could not taste the earl grey flavor. Tasted more like a butter cookie.
There are seating both upstairs and downstairs. I would recommend sitting upstairs in the winter because it is warmer up there but it does get crowded.
Customer service is on point. Everyone here is very nice and do their job with a smile, can’t get upset when you are greeted with a smile from the get go.

This is a beautiful restaurant with a warm, friendly vibe and a lovely relaxed dining area upstairs. I went with the kale and seitan BBQ crêpe, which was quite tasty, especially with avocado. I also had the green juice, which was good, though I was bummed they didn’t have wheatgrass for the warm wheatgrass drink, which sounded really interesting (though possibly gross). Friendly service and good prices. I want that acai bowl!

I would recommend this place to anyone simply because of how adorable it is. My sister and I ordered the chocolate mud cake and earl grey cookie with our soy lattes. It was all brought to our table on cute dishes-it’s as though you’re having a tea party. The latte didn’t have a strong coffee flavor and had a little too much foam on the top. The pastries were good, though, especially the earl grey cookie; it is loaded with tea leaves and has a powerful taste.
Before dessert we shared two vegan crepes: the Garden of Eatin’ and Room for Mushroom. They both have a strange combination of ingredients but somehow remain balanced and delicious. I did unfortunately find a couple of lemon seeds in one of the crepes. They are also a bit expensive but it’s just the reality of economics! It’s not like there is many other vegan crêpe places.
We also got the Blue Haze smoothie. It didn’t taste much like newtella, which is odd since nut butters are usually a prominent taste in drinks. We didn’t get to sip much more of it before my sister accidentally spilled it on our table. Oh no she didn’t! Don’t worry, because my sister told the workers about it and they made us a new one on the house. I was glad for the replacement not just because it gave us back what we lost but because the second one turned out better than the first. Which makes me question their ability to produce consistent quality.
The place has a lot of seating upstairs and is a nice place to relax and enjoy vegan delights. And the workers bring your food to your table and in my case, remake smoothies that your sister tosses to the ground! However, the workers have bad attitudes and are a general turn off to customers.

My first Unilocal review because this place deserves it, and not necessarily a positive one.
A couple days ago I walked in with my friend to get a mocha and a latte to go. The place was empty, there was only one customer having something at the bar. Again, it was only me and my friend and two coffees, as simple as it sounds. There were a total of THREE GIRLS «WORKING» at the counter. They were like robots and hardly flinched when we approached the counter. It was surreal how absurd the situation was because they just didn’t give a $h!+ about our presence.
We walked in at 2:30pm and eventually walked out with our crappy, overpriced coffees at 2:50pm. You do the math.

Little Choc Apothecary has won my heart with delicately homemade crepes and cookies! My friends and I came here and ordered on the first floor and proceeded upstairs to comfortably seat ourselves and wait for our delicious meals to arrive. We arrived for an afternoon brunch and really enjoyed ourselves (well, at least I did). The wait time came out to 27 minutes.
FOOD:
Double Chocolate Chip Cookie (⁵⁄₅) = The double chocolate chip cookie was chewy and melted in my mouth.
Earl Grey Cookie (4.5÷5) = I expected the early grey cookie to be as chewy as the double chocolate chip cookie, but to my surprise, it wasn’t. The aroma of earl grey was distinct in the cookie and great tasting, but it wasn’t a chewy cookie and I’ve always had a strong preference for chewy cookies. Also, the earl grey cookie seemed a tad oily to me.
Room For Mushroom (⁵⁄₅) = This was the savory crêpe I had ordered! This healthy and hipster dish consisted of herb roasted mushrooms, spinach, walnuts, tahini basil sauce. From the first bite, to the last, I kept telling myself to savor every last bit! Little Choc creates chewy crepes (heads up!).
The Breakfast (Friend’s order) = This savory crêpe consisted of scrambled tofu, homemade coconut bacon, spinach, cucumber. My meat-​loving friend ordered this and he was not satisfied, but then again, who needs his opinion (haha)?
Newtella Strawberry (Friend’s order) = Another meat-​lover friend ordered this and she was content with her meal and found it unique that Nutella had a vegan twist to it. :)
DESIGN:
The exterior was very open and hipster, which was what attracted my friends and I (I love the open juice bar). The interior was very «Alice In Wonderland» to me and I really enjoyed receiving a playing card table number (this was such a fun concept)!
The bathroom aka «the loo» was cute and clean.
There is complimentary water available and clean up is on the customers (place your used utensils and dishes in the pantry box).

Very adorable place. I had a mighty mushroom crêpe which was a decent size and was quite savory and delicious. I definitely have to go back to try a sweet crêpe and maybe some tea and juices as well.
Update: came back for a sweet crêpe and tea. I got the crêpe with their homemade Nutella, which was delicious, and bananas. The crêpe was a bit doughier than I remember the savory crêpe being. Also had a pot of tea that they serve with a timer so you can keep track of how long you steep it for, which was helpful.

A vegan friend recommended this establishment and after hearing about this place, I took a few of my friends here for a light afternoon refreshment. First of all, this place is extremely cute. I love the yellow! (Kind of an obsession of mine at the moment) Second, it’s 100% vegan! This will be the place I’m going to bring my vegan friends to in the future. And there’s a great selection of crepes, baked goods, coffee and tea.
My friends and I were still full from an earlier brunch but decided to buy a few drinks and a crêpe to share anyways. For our crêpe, we chose the «newtella» and strawberry topping. It’s a classic that can’t go wrong. We also ordered a cappuccino, matcha tea latte and an iced mocha. After ordering, we went up to the second floor to find seating. There are a lot of seating but it was rather empty on a Sunday afternoon. With a good amount of outlets around and also free wifi, a lot of people were working on their laptop. Seems to be the perfect spot to get work done and enjoy some tea.
The newtella was delicious and not overly sweet. I would want to try their savory crepes next time when I’m not on a full stomach. My cappuccino had a beautiful bird on it, almost too cute to drink. The matcha tea latte was a little strong for my friend but the agave they have handy on the table gave it the bit of sweetness she needed. Both the matcha tea latte and the iced mocha were also served in glass jars.
I did however, take one star off because of the fruit flies that were constantly flying around. I think it is because of the bin they place on the table for the used juice jars and plates.
Nonetheless, this is the place I would come back again and again to try more of their menu. I’m already excited for my next visit :)
I use the cups app to get drinks. Get a $ 10 discount using the code: 18RS4 when you sign up that can also be used at many other coffee shops as well.

I LUV U SO MUCH LIL CHOC.
so much so I had to do it in caps so you know it’s real. this place is one of the few vegan friendly places that not only appeal to those who have vegan tastebuds but for for carnivorous animals like myself. yum.
I didn’t try any of their tasty vegan friendly crepes with toppings such as diff fruits, homemade jam, chia seed jam but I did have a small smoothie that was so delicious. And only 5 $! I forgot the name but it had kale, figs, pineapple and bananas. I had it to stay because I wanted to explore what their upstairs seating area was about. So effing cute.
I shall return shortly.

I’m pretty much in love with Little Choc; they have great cookies and cakes, and I got some to go when I stopped in the other day.
The crêpes are the stars of the show; when I went there today, I decided to eat in, and got the «Garden of Eden» crêpe – apples, kale, and homemade cashew cheese – and it was a perfect late-​afternoon meal. (Note: I hadn’t had a crêpe in over 14 years because Little Choc is the only place I know of that makes vegan crêpes, and I haven’t gotten it together to make them on my own.)
I’ve known about this place for over two years, since they had a table at a few Vegan Shop-​Ups and I sampled their wares. Plus, I used to live in this neighborhood, and more recently I used to travel over the bridge to Foodswings when it was on Grand street. Little Choc is a step up – delicate and delicious, organic vegan food.
I’ll definitely be making the trip much more often; the upstairs is a wonderful space to relax with a good book and cup of tea, or I can bring the cookies and muffins home. It’s just one subway stop over the bridge; I feel lucky to have it so close.

First off if you are a vegetarian, vegan, gluten free cruelty free kind of guy you should completely ignore this review. I am the kind of guy that would gladly bludgeon his dinner to death with sack of potatoes and then eat them together. That said I will also eat anything, and when this joint opened up a block from me I figured I’d go out on a limb and give it a shot.
So last night I walked in, feeling like a spy, to order my crêpe and juice. I opted for the seitan crêpe and the ‘red nose reindeer’ juice. Total came to just under $ 20 — not cheap. But then again I am getting all home made stuff and fresh juice. I sat upstairs which is a very well done and welcoming space. The coffee shop that was in the building prior was always dark and kind of sad. They opened it up with nice lighting, a podium for fresh water, and a small art space. Because hey, if you are going to be an all vegan crêpe place, gotta slap some DIY art in there. 5 – 10 minutes later a cheery employee dropped my food and drink off.
Let’s start with the positives. The juice was f***** amazing. I am never much of a juice guy outside of things I can put vodka in, but man this was perfectly balanced, fresh, light and juuuust sweet enough to not be bitter. I am definitely coming back to try their other juices and maybe a smoothy once it warms up a bit.
Now the crêpe was quite large, cooked to a turn and presented well. As for flavor, I guess it just isn’t my thing. I can see how it could be your thing, and I’m not docking this place points due to personal preferences. I am sure if you were vegan and this was your thing you’d be raving about this place. But as a steak bacon and butter kind of guy — it was just different.
Definitely coming back here for the drinks. I think it might be my first stop on the hangover express next weekend.
Oh yeah, and drinking beets makes your poo pink. Just an FYI.

On my never ending quest to kill myself with sugar, this deceivingly-​not-​small spot was a throwback option for my baked needs. Grandma’s house kind of atmosphere with items served on fine china (at least to me).
Was disappointed that my first option wasn’t there — brownies — but settled on an oatmeal raisin cookie and an almond milk latte ($ 7ish). Went upstairs with the cookies and pleasantly surprised by the well lit seating area that reminds you of someone’s dining room. Outlets on the walls definitely helped with my dying phone.
Cookie was soft and delicious (wish there was more of it). Coffee was strong enough to keep me up most of the night, so did it’s job. Would like to try their crepes some time.

Oh, there is a God.
Little Choc Apothecary just opened and claims to be NYC’s «first all-​vegan creperie.» I literally fell over with excitement. No cheese, no gluten, nothing to worry about. I can get literally anything on the menu without fumbling over explanations for why I need to leave out butter, or whipped cream, or milk, or… you get the idea.
I wanted to try literally everything on the menu. Everything. I settled with Room for Mushroom, but come on, I have to go back and try «Newtella» (the homemade dairy-​free nutella). and all the desserts, and juices to make me feel like I can undo all the indulgences. Who wants to go on a date with me EVERY DAY until I finish eating my way through their menu? Even their hot chocolate is vegan!
Finally, I can truly use the title of my favorite Unilocal list here. Legen-​non-​dairy! Fine, fine, I’ll admit it. I guess there is *some* use to Williamsburg being trendy-​hipster-​overrun.
PS– their Kickstarter campaign video is adorable!
