About
Roule Galette is a little piece of France in the city where you will find French staff, speaking the language of Voltaire who will serve you in a warm and intimate setting reminiscent of Montmartre in Paris. Music, whether Breton or French songs of the last century or more modern times will accompany your meal along with authentic Cider from the Pays d'Auge in Normandie, or Cotes du Rhone or Burgundy wines. Not to forget the inimitable Orangina.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Very good choice of wonderful French crepes. Coffee was fabulous. A bit cold in the outdoor dining area, maybe an outdoor heater would be great on those chilly mornings.

I went on a weekday, about 11.30am. I'd read it could get really busy at lunch so figured an early lunch was my best bet. I was lucky and got a table giving me a view of the cafe's colourful interior. I had the Complete...a la Roule Galette: Free range egg, swiss cheese, mushrooms, ham, black truffle oil, green salad. It was excellent! It looked great and tasted even better. Friendly service. I'd have loved to have a glass of cider with the galette, but the cider only available by the bottle (which I found expensive). I will return.More

Really enjoyed the sweet pancakes. We had the lady petrova - very nice, good amount of strawberries and chocolate sauce. We also had the Biscoff & Strawberries - also very nice, but could have had more biscoff spread as there wasn’t much, but the strawberries...were at a good amount.More

Quick dinner at this casual eatery. Arrive early or you may have to queue for a seating especially if you are coming as a bigger group. We went for two savory galette - “complete a la roule galette” which is a classic French combination and...the “altas”, an interesting combination of potatoes, spicy sausages and yoghurt. For the dessert, we had a “la belle normandie”, with apples and light cream. Also not to be missed is having a cider which completes the meal!More

I went there twice for breakfast and hopefully I can go back a third time before flying back home! If you get there between 8 and 9 there is no wait, it's busy but calm, the staff is friendly, helpful and authentic (they all speak...French), it's fresh and clean, has outdoor seating and toilets and last but not least: the coffee is delicious as is the food!More

The early bird catches the galette at this extremely popular breakfast venue in Flinders Lane. Arriving early (9am! On a Sunday) we secure the last indoor 4 seats. The savory galettes are the house specialty and the Australian themes of this French establishment are subdued...but unmistaken. The CHEVREFEUILLE CROTTIN (V) with whole goats cheese, pecan nuts, honey, and green salad was a stand out from our selections!More

This is my mum’s favourite city lunch venue whenever we do anything in the city. Easy to find and lovely outdoor tables and indoor seating is available too. The galette’s are big and the staff can speak French. So my mum always converses with them...in French. Fun casual atmosphere and friendly staff.More
