Crepe Shop To Permanently Close In Camden County

MERCHANTVILLE, NJ — A local crepe shop will soon be no more. Charlie's Crepes in Merchantville plans to close in the coming months.

Dec. 17 will mark the last day to enjoy the eatery's products.

Charlie's began selling crepes at farmers markets in 2015, hitting its stride when it became part of Collingswood's market.

The brick-and-mortar store opened in 2018, becoming a popular destination for its sweet and savory creations. But Charlie's Krepes has operated under difficult circumstances, according to owner Charles Koory.

"Yesterday was a great day… I had over $300 in sales at the shop," Koory said via the eatery's Facebook page. "Today was the same, menu wise and everything else, nothing had changed, and I made just over 90 bucks. So, what I want you to imagine in your 9-5 job is a fluctuating paycheck."

Charlie's Crepes has also reduced its hours to the following:

• Wednesday through Friday: 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
• Saturday and Sunday: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The weekend brunch hours remain the same. But previously, the eatery had also been open in the late afternoon and evening from Wednesday through Friday.

Charlie's Crepes is located at 177 S Centre St., Merchantville.
