McKinney, Texas -- Sweet Paris Crêperie & Café, the ultra-popular restaurant brand specializing in sweet and savory crêpes, waffles, salads, paninis, hot drinks and more, is now open at 8701 W. University Dr., Suite 100, McKinney, TX 75071, in the West Grove Shopping Center. The local community will be able to visit the stunning new restaurant and enjoy the Art of Eating Crepes.

The strategic partners behind the new location are the local husband-and-wife duo, Ludo and Yi Le Gall. Originally from France, Ludo has always had a deep passion for the culinary arts and a strong desire to share the rich flavors of French cuisine with his Texas community. Some of his most cherished memories are of his mother lovingly making crepes for the family in the kitchen. 

In 2018, the couple discovered Sweet Paris Crêperie & Café and instantly connected with the brand’s vision. That connection inspired them to open their first location in Friendswood in 2020. Now, they’re eager to expand their Sweet Paris portfolio and welcome a new community to the experience. 

“Our second store opening is a significant milestone we’re thrilled to celebrate,” said Ludo. “Reflecting on our journey with Sweet Paris, from taking a leap into entrepreneurship and opening our first location to now launching a second, we are reminded of just how far we’ve come. It’s been a meaningful path of growth, made possible through our partnership with the amazing team at Sweet Paris.”
