The French Press Cafe & Creperie

The crepes are fantastic and rather filling; parking is rather difficult, especially on the street

The food and drink here is always amazing. One of my favorite spots in Albany.

Absolutely fantastic crepes (Tuscan Summer and Northern Comfort specifically) and service. Breakfast potatoes and chai were not as good. Definitely coming back to try different crepes and the coffee.

Best breakfast burrito in Albany Capital Region. Killer crepes, too!

Our experience was significantly below what you might expect from a restaurant with a 4.8 star rating (at the time of this writing.). Service was pretty slow for an empty restaurant. We had to grab silverware from a neighboring table since we weren't given any. My vegetarian daughter was served beef gravy on her fries, despite her request this be put on the side. No refills offered for my coffee. Plates not removed when our table became crowded with dishes. Which is fine I guess, but not five star fine.

Our family came on a visit from D.C. and we went there every day for breakfast. Not only was the food ridiculously delicious but the atmosphere had such character- cozy & well-decorated a lot of books in French to peruse- I only wish it were open 24 hours..I was inspired to write & could have curled up & stayed all night. The best part- the staff was SO friendly & remembered our names & orders. You don't have to be a Francophile to love this hidden gem. Shout out to Bill for being so genuinely friendly & offer a lot of recommendations for local attractions. Thank you French Press!

Really great place. Food is amazing, staff is really nice!

Great coffee, excellent menu

We popped in for Saturday brunch and were very pleased with our experience. I had to Bon Voyage crepe with lemon, blueberries and brie, and it knocked my socks off. Hubby enjoyed the Ron Swanson breakfast burrito, and then we split a large french press. Everything was delicious, the coffee was great, service was awesome and the ambiance is nice too. We will definitely be back!

One of the best crepes I've ever had

Great selection of sweet or savory crepes, good coffee, good service.

Great variety of crepes and delicious salads to go with your coffee.

It looks like they moved to a new location on Washington Ave and has not opened yet. (8/12/19). Please share if they are open!!! This will be (and has been) my favorite place in Albany to relax and and have a cup of coffee.

I'm so pleased they moved uptown, much closer to my job. Excellent spot to grab lunch. I had a savory crepe with spinach, cheese and pesto, it was delicious! Beautifully light, great flavors and not soggy. Jess and the man behind the counter were friendly and funny. I'll be back!

My boyfriend and I love it here and have been regulars for a couple years. They are by far my favorite breakfast sandwich in the area and I love coming with my coworkers for lunch. My favorite crepe is the Fig N' Pig! We have always had consistently great food and great service.
