About this place
Sugar butter starts crisp and flaky, then gives way to chewy dough as you eat. One diner who tried it at Porte recalled how the gentle sweetness of sugar and butter complemented the crepe. Alongside the simple “Sugar Butter” (350 yen), the menu includes “Cinnamon Sugar Butter” (350 yen) and “Sugar Butter Lemon” (400 yen). Choose the basic version to savour the dough itself, or try one of the variations for added fragrance or tartness.
The cream-filled options include “Chocolate Whipped Cream” (500 yen) and “Salted Caramel Whipped Cream” (500 yen), offering different kinds of sweetness. A diner who added vanilla ice cream to custard and whipped cream described the dough as chewy and moist. They were told the ice cream is firm, a useful detail if you’re considering extra toppings. For a change of pace, the Blueberry Cheese Cream (550 yen) contains house-made jam. Diners have remarked on the generous amount of blueberry and on something like lemon flesh in the cheese cream. You could also compare it with “Honey Lemon Cheese Cream” (550 yen).
There are savoury crepes, too. Options include “Ham and Cheese” (450 yen), “Avocado Tuna Cheese” and “Cream Cheese and Teriyaki Chicken,” each at 550 yen. They make an alternative for when you want a light meal rather than something sweet. Crepes are available to take away, making this an easy stop for a snack after a meal. Drinks include cold-brew iced coffee (300 yen), as well as house-made lemonade and lemon squash, each at 350 yen.
