Crepes & Waffles

Crepes & Waffles is an iconic Colombian restaurant chain founded in 1980 in Bogotá by Beatriz Fernández and Eduardo Macía, internationally acclaimed for its sweet and savory crepes, artisan waffles, homemade soups, and house-churned ice cream. The Marbella location is their Panama flagship, featuring a spacious air-conditioned dining room and a charming outdoor terrace tucked behind the banking district's grand hotels and financial towers. The menu is extensive: from the classic Covarachia soup with crispy plantains to seafood curry crepes, chicken in Parmesan sauce, and portobello mushroom crepes. Their desserts — especially the artisan ice cream and chocolate fondue crepes — are legendary. Crepes & Waffles also operates at Town Center (Costa del Este), Altaplaza Mall (Condado del Rey), and Multiplaza (Punta Pacífica), but the Marbella branch offers the most complete and relaxed experience. Prices are moderate and the value-for-money is excellent. The company is globally recognized for its social commitment, prioritizing employment for single mothers.
