Marion Crepes
Established in 1976, Marion Crepes started out as a humble food truck before finding a brick-and-mortar shop on Harajuku’s Takeshita Street. Its founder, Iwao Kishi, had come back to Tokyo after seven years in France.
Influenced by his time in France, he brought back with him his rendition of the French crepe. The now quintessential Harajuku street food is recreated by Marion Crepes into many menu selections including strawberry, matcha, azuki bean, and cheesecake crepes.
