Ty Breiz, Breton crêperie in Montparnasse, 15th arrondissement, France.
Ty Breiz is a Breton crêperie in Montparnasse that makes savory galettes and sweet crêpes from buckwheat flour sourced from Moulin de Carmenais. The recipes come from the Finistère region in Brittany and use ingredients true to that area's culinary tradition.
The restaurant started in 1970 when a residential building became a neighborhood crêperie. Over time, newspaper clippings were added to the exterior, creating a visual record of the place's story.
The place honors Breton cooking traditions, with savory galettes and sweet crêpes prepared in view of diners who can watch the skilled technique at work.
The crêperie sits in a busy neighborhood and is straightforward to reach, with space to accommodate both locals and visitors. Diners should expect varying wait times depending on the time of day, particularly during lunch hours and on weekends.
The restaurant mills its own buckwheat flour specifically for the menu, making all galettes naturally gluten-free. This in-house flour production sets the crêpes apart from those at other restaurants in the city.
