Meli-Melo is a beloved Greenwich institution since 1994, serving authentic Brittany buckwheat crêpes alongside house-made ice cream, fresh juices, soups, and salads in a charming, casual setting on Greenwich Avenue. Grandkids are enchanted by the crêpe-making process and love customizing their sweet dessert crêpes, while grandparents appreciate the quality and the wonderful French café atmosphere.

Budget & Insider Tips

Grandparent Money Tips
  • Early bird menus (5–6pm) often cut 15–20% off the bill — and they usually apply on weeknights too, even if the sign only says weekend.
  • Kids eat free or half-price at many diners on weeknight evenings. Ask at the host stand before sitting down — it's not always posted.
  • Order water for yourself and let the grandkids pick one shared drink. Refills are usually free.
