The Galloping Galette

A charming, authentically French crêperie tucked in downtown Braselton. Who would’ve guessed? This place is run by a couple from Northern France who greeted every customer like they were friends. We had two celiacs in our party and they had amazing gluten free options - all galettes were naturally gluten free and most of the crêpes could be made with the galette upon request. I highly recommend trying the Jardiniere with the creamed leeks which was perfectly seasoned and incredibly tasty! They also had great French press coffee so I’m already looking forward to our next visit.

Exceptional. The flavor transported me to France. I wanted to try everything on the menu. The owners are French, with a young, attentive wait staff. I got the tilapia special and it was braised with a golden crust and flaky interior. The beurre blanc sauce was perfect! Savory crepes like this are called Galettes, as they are made with buckwheat. If you don’t like buckwheat, then I imagine you won’t like a galette. It’s not a southern flour so don’t expect it to taste like something you know. Genuinely surprised to find an experience like this in Braselton, of all places. The dessert crepes are very very good too. Custom made one with bananas and ate the whole thing. I left full, with leftovers, which surprised me. A must try dining experience! I will definitely be returning. Buckwheat is naturally gluten free.

Really good food and gluten free options, too!
