Fantastic "creperie", very french. authentic place and cozy. Be careful, often full : The restaurant was jam packed with a lineup outside. the best crepes Ihad in my life. I recommend.

average price: 9,90€ for sweet crepes. i think closer towards 12,00€ for savory crepes.
i don't know if this is always the case, but it gets packed right after work hours. it is a tight space, so you want to be mindful of where you step! they make use of every square footage here. nevertheless, if you find a seat for yourself, you will enjoy just about anything on their menu --- from sweet to savory crepes! i recommend a scoop of vanilla ice cream to pair off the sweet crepe. and the coffee is a sure cherry on top.
tip: make your wallet or a change of 15,00€ to 25,00€ (or more) easily accessible for an easier exit when you are done with your meal.
bon apetit! -

It's rare for me to eat in a crêperie in Paris, as my partner has exposed me to the real thing in Brittany--and at a quarter of the price. That said, I don't make it to Brittany as often as I'd like, and sometimes I crave a good crêpe.
Le Petit Josselin is one of many on the rue du Montparnasse. Just like the others, it has tiny wooden tables that make you bump elbows with your neighbor, a whole host of options for crêpes and galettes that make your mouth water, and the usual pitchers of cider. When I studied abroad here years ago, I tested most (if not all) of the crêperies on this street, but the only one I remember is the Petit Josselin.
You should only come here if you're extremely hungry. Craving tomatoes, mushrooms, and cheese, I ordered the vegetarienne and could barely finish it. It looked as though the chef had taken a square meter of buckwheat, stuffed it with the ingredients, and folded it over several times. It was that large. With much time and a little pitcher of cider, my girlfriend and I finished our giant galettes and decided, upon seeing the chocolate-covered crêpe next to us, that it would be a shame to pass up on dessert, no matter how full we were. We split the beurre-sucre and it was just fine.
It felt wrong to pay 16€ for such a meal, where just four hours away I could get the same meal (with a larger pitcher of cider and a dessert crêpe by myself!) for under 10€. But if I happen to need a fix and can't take a train to Pontivy or Carantec, I'd come back here. -

Had the best dinner here after reading reviews on Yelp. Egg, bacon and onion galette was absolutely amazing. The homemade toffee crepe was amazing. Also tried the house cider and it was also wonderful. We got a table outside and enjoyed the views. Popular place, and will worth it.

The street is lined with creperies - we picked this one and WOW! Such a cute place and everything was so tasty.
