5) Royal Crepes
Royal Crepes is one of my favorite restaurants in Beacon, NY. Delicious sweet and savory crepes, perhaps exotic in the Hudson Valley, but so close to my heart (and taste buds) eastern-European cuisine, warm-toned interior with modern rustic accents. Highly recommend it for lunch or brunch. My personal favorites from the savory menu include (sports nutrition/bodybuilding coach-approved choices 😜) Salmon, Feta, Grilled Vegetable Spread & Fried Egg Crepe, and Grilled Chicken, Pesto, Mushroom & Mozzarella Cheese Crepe. On the sweet side, I always go with my customized Banana/Nutella/Strawberries Crepe.
