Les Piplettes
Rennes, France
The read// why locals go
Les Piplettes is a crêperie on rue Vasselot that treats the galette as a canvas rather than a formula. Buckwheat galettes and sweet crêpes come in traditional builds and in combinations the kitchen invents for itself, and the card is unusually accommodating: vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free versions are all accounted for, which for a crêperie is a deliberate choice rather than a default. The room is small, warm and low-lit, with a handful of terrace tables facing one of the busiest pedestrian streets in the old centre. Prices stay in the range Rennais students and office workers actually pay, around 18 EUR for a full plate.
