Reviews For Ancestor Coffeehouse & Creperie

Stopped here on a weekday morning to get breakfast and get some work done. Very friendly staff, and good selection of drinks and food. I got the pig and fig crepe and a large iced latte with oat milk. Iced latte was perfect! Smooth, velvety and not bitter at all even though i got it plain with no sweeteners. Crepe was pretty good as well, but i wish they used real bacon instead of bacon bits. Also extra points for their nice in house glasses! Almost every other place uses plastic cups and doesn’t have an option for glass if you’re ordering an iced drink!

Crepes were amazing. Staff super nice and helpful. Visited while at Spookynook basketball tournament. A definite gem- try it if you’re in the area.

This place was great. The food was good and the coffee was amazing. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I love that they have mugs if you're drinking your beverage inside instead of having thow away cups.

Have been wanting to try this place after a few friends voiced how great it was and we were not disappointed. It was our first time trying crepes. We are definitely more pancake or french toast people, but they were good. The breakfast sandwiches and frozen coffee were delicious! We tried the cinnamon roll crepe, bacon egg and cheese sandwich, 717sandwich, and the frozen caramel latte. Staff was super friendly. The place is clean, including the bathrooms. They have a bakery case at the counter. There were a few people set up with their laptops to do work which is cute. They have a little reading area set up. A great environment with music that won't stress you out. We went mid Thursday morning and were surprised with how many people were in there. You order, they call your name when it is ready, then you return your plates and utensils to a location by the counter.

The crepe was perfectly thin and delicate, with a buttery flavor that melted in my mouth. The steak sandwich was packed with tender, juicy slices of beef cooked to perfection. Each bite was balanced with fresh toppings and a hint of savory sauce that brought everything together. The bread was warm, crusty on the outside, and soft on the inside, making it the ideal companion to the hearty filling. Altogether, it was a satisfying and delicious meal I’d gladly come back for.

Cannot recommend enough! Very cozy place with plenty of seating, even on the weekend. Employees were beyond sweet and friendly, and the crepe (I got the fruit & sunshine) and coffee (I got the iced pecan pie latte) were genuinely the best of any coffee shop I've ever been to. Definitely go here if you're in the area or craving something sweet!

I drove four hours from Upstate NY for an event at the fairgrounds across the street. My first day there, I got breakfast from Ancestor. I would be willing to drive four hours again just to get breakfast from them. Wow. Just WOW! Great coffee and the crepes were incredible. All too often I find myself having to grab breakfast from chain restaurants. This was such a pleasant change. Real people and real food with REAL ingredients - nothing prepackaged and microwaved. If you're in Lebanon - get yourself here for breakfast and/or lunch.

I went with a group of friends and ordered multiple crepes and drinks. The service was fast and very welcoming. Everything was delicious especially the Apple Honey Walnut crepe and the London Fog Latte! They have a gluten-free and dairy-free crepes!! The atmosphere is very chill - a great place to hang out.
