This little cafe amidst the business area in Columbia is actually a great breakfast spot. It appears to be geared toward the lunch crowd as it likely draws from the large daytime working population in the surrounding office/light business establishments. I was actually surprised it was open on the weekend because of this, but their excellent breakfasts probably attract the local residents as well. I read some reviews that suggested that this place was easy to find. I'd have to disagree on that count. It is located in an unlikely office building with signage around the side where their entrance is located. It was only because Maps insisted we were in the right place that we didn't give up looking. To be fair, there was also an event at the Daycare next door that caused a bit of confusion with pedestrian flow. The interior was modern looking and tidy but had a bit of an office look rather than a café vibe. That's not a negative, it's just unusual. It was not particularly busy the day we visited which allowed for an easygoing feel. The format was walk up and order, though they do bring your food to you. The counter person was pleasant, polite and efficient and the food was ready in a reasonable amount of time. Crepes are definitely their specialty and we stayed with that. My wife and I decided to share two crepes, one sweet and one savory. The sweet one was the Crepes Suzette which had an orange overtone and was very good. The savory crepe was a Mediterranean Veggie Crepe, which was also very good. The balsamic drizzle was a particularly tasty touch. Their coffee was pretty good as well. With food, drink, tax and tip, our bill came to $16 per person. I was happy enough with the value. I'd try this place again if the opportunity arose.

The food is amazing. Some of the best crepes I've ever had. I ordered the strawberry cheesecake crepe and it wasn't too sweet and the fresh strawberries really complimented the cheesecake spread. The portion is reasonably sized, so I was satisfied after finishing the meal. The customer service was delightful and after ordering, they brought it the table. I absolutely love the relaxed vibe too. The music is relaxing, there are a few plants all around and it would be a great space to read or quietly work with some light background noise. I would definitely recommend and am excited to return.

Their service was very friendly and helped us immediately. There was ample parking and it was pretty easy to find this restaurant. Inside, it was painted and decorated cutely. It was not too busy at all and the food came out very quickly. As for the taste, the Nutella strawberry crepe was super yummy! It was warm and had strawberry, Nutella, and banana inside and was topped with chocolate syrup and powdered sugar. I really enjoyed my crepe and would definitely come back! It was also very filling and super fairly priced.

I see why they rate very well. The turkey crepe is very good, the service is very good, the ice cream is good and the facility itself including the restrooms is tops. My only suggestions are they get decent coffee.

Great restaurant with great ambiance. Had the chicken florentine, strawberry cheesecake, and caprese crepes. All three crepes were superb.

Every time I travel to Columbia for work, I find something new. This cafe is the very best part of staying at the Merriweather. Cafe Columbia does delightful crepes. I had the caprese, which I highly recommend. It's the perfect blend of light crepe, fresh tomato, pesto, and a balsamic drizzle. It went really well with the chai latte. The decor is bright secondary colors perfect for a morning wake-up. They played super chill lo-fi ambient music that created a gentle happy morning. The staff was friendly and efficient. The crepe was quickly prepared and served together with the late. They did it while training a new server. Great job CC!

I'm reluctant to leave a review, because this place is a true hidden gem. LOCATION Near Columbia Mall, with ample parking in a low traffic area. 5/5 EATS I've tried two of the crepes, one sweet and one savory. All are masterfully prepared, and the variance from the usual sandwich offerings is welcome and appreciated. 5/5 SERVICE Each time I've been here, the service is friendly, attentive, and welcoming - a mark of distinction in comparison to poor customer service so commonplace today. 5/5 AESTHETIC Here's where the mark is made most acutely. It's clear that deliberate attention was given to the relaxed ambience, from the chill lo-fi to the blended color palette incorporating components of geomancy, the feeling of a communal place of repose is clear. 5/5 HOURS Hours are accommodating at 8-3 six days per week. 5/5 Highly recommended overall!

Crepes! Boy are they great especially when served in a beautiful, clean and and comfortable setting. My favorite is the Turkey crepe with the egg add on. Turkey,egg,avocado, spinach tomato and mozzarella. And it's fun to give an owner operated place my business.
