About Panache Cafe and Creperie

Directly facing the bay at Eastern Beach, this spot pairs waterfront views with hefty, meal-sized crepes that trade usual cafe staples for serious fillings. Tables spread outside opposite Steampacket Gardens—ideal for breezy mornings catching the salt air. The kitchen turns out folded savoury plates stuffed with satay chicken or rich potato curry alongside sweet folds packed with banana or drizzled caramel. Glass windbreaks and warm heaters keep the outdoor tables comfortable when the coastal weather turns brisk.

  • Substantial sweet & savoury crepes: Generously portioned savoury options like satay chicken, chicken kiev, and gado-gado potato curry satisfy hungrier appetites alongside sweet dessert staples.
  • Foreshore alfresco dining: Outdoor tables sit right across from Steampacket Gardens, complete with windbreaks and heaters for bay-watching in any season.

  • Effortless Dining for Sweet & Savoury Tastes

    The balanced menu makes it effortless to cater to both sweet cravings and savoury palates in a single party.

    We are very opposite, me liking savoury and him liking sweet, but that doesn’t stop us from coming as they have a wonderful menu catering to everyone.

    Generous seating and wide-ranging crepe varieties make the cafe a reliable choice when hosting family groups or picky diners.

    One of them is very picky so we were quite nervous when we chose the place as it was not familiar to us. We were all so impressed and enjoyed the crepes sooo much!!
