Food: Petite Lou Lou Creperie

A Parisian Cafe in Western Loudoun

La Petite Lou Lou is the sweetest creperie in Loudoun (although it also serves savory plates). Antique decor, French music, and authentic French cuisine replicate the culture of 1930s Paris. The Loudoun location may be located on Main Street in Purcellville but its ambience magically transports visitors to the heart of France.

La Petite Lou Lou pumps out French infused coffee, flavorsome sweet and savory crepes, hand-made croissants and pastries, and serves a vast selection of French and regional wine selections to guests seven days a week.

At the time of our team’s visit to the creperie, La Petite LouLou featured charming greenhouse dining areas in the outdoor courtyard. Our own reserved greenhouse provided the perfect, socially distanced enclosure to sample the extensive menu. Each tested dish was delicious and captured a mouth-watering taste of France in every bite.

Note: Although we sampled several beverages and dishes at La Petite Lou Lou, not all that we tasted is pictured in this article.
