The Apicot Tree Cafe - I had been dying to try this place out over Reading Week with a close friend of mine but unfortunately never got the chance to.
This time around, I not only got to try out their Crepe Fest menu, but also take some seriously foodgawker/Pinterest-worthy shots of their desserts!

This place is a complete gem! Hidden away in a small, but very cozy (and totally photoshoot-appropriate) plaza, The Apricot Tree Café is the ideal location for a satisfying meal with a couple close friends or indulging in delectable after-work desserts.
The crêpes were great - thin and slightly chewy, and nowhere near soggy. Though the Smoked Salmon crêpe was a tad salty for my taste, the Chicken Taragon perfectly combined spinach, mushrooms, and tender chicken breast in a creamy (but not too rich) sauce. By the time the main courses had been devoured, and my coral-hued Apricot Peach tea had been consumed, there wasn't too much room left for dessert. We ordered ice cream anyway though!
Truthfully, I don't think my photos did the gelato the justice that it deserved. The hazelnut gelato was actually made from ground hazelnuts and had just the perfect degree of sweetness and creaminess to it. To put it simply, every scoop was a divine taste of heaven.
While service can be a bit slow, this place was honestly superb and I can't wait to come back next time to try out their desserts and drinks!
