Crepe City debuted at 199 Avenue A between 12th Street and 13th Street earlier this month.
I stopped by for a friends and family soft opening, and met owner Abdulnaser Alzokari (pictured below in the tie with staff).
Specialties here include crepes, waffles (creatively spelled whaffles!), ice cream and bubble tea.
Crepe City is open daily from noon to 4 a.m. You can follow them on Instagram here. After operating most recently as an unlicensed weed shop, this storefront was home to the first outpost of Mikey Likes It Ice Cream from 2013 to 2022.
We spotted Mikey here this past Sunday handing out free scoops for National Ice Cream Day.

Thank you so much for the wonderful article about our opening! I’m Alex, one of the owners of Crepe City. We’re excited to share that we are now officially serving Mikey Likes It Ice Cream from his old location. We believe it’s a great addition to our menu and we’d love for everyone to come by and try it out. Looking forward to seeing you.
When did crepes become what you ate when the bars close?
Hi Alex!
Congratulations and welcome! And I am so excited that you're bringing back Mikey's. The best ice cream in the city. I'll be visiting often! Best of luck x
It has happened yesterday, at about 3:27 AM.
Why would anyone care at all about what people eat when the "boogeyman" bars (to some people) close? Welcome and Good Luck!
You should eat protein after drinking not carbs
