Is the surface even enough for making crepes?

Yes--I have done so but I suggest you season it even more than the factory did.

I honestly have never made crepes so I can't answer that but I do love the pan. We use it all the time for grilling salmon and all types of fish. It only takes 20 minutes on 425. We add the veggies then after they are prepared and your meal stays hot till you are done. Easy clean up. We use the pan all the time. It seems to have even heat if that helps you.

Sorry.............this was a gift but I would imagine you could. Be adventuresome! Try it!

mine did not come with a lid; I'm not sure why you would want one on a crepe pan; they cook in less than a minute. Also, mine was less than half the price currently shown and qualified for free shipping. I would suggest you look at other options.

Yes, it has a great non-stick coating. However it does not respond well to extremely hight temperature. My husband managed to melt it searing tuna, but it functioned great for me for crepes. I specifically liked that it was light enough to flip the crepes, and the walls were low enough if you wanted to use a spatula.

I'm certainly no expert in the kitchen, so with that caveat, I suspect the answer is yes. The mesh is both dense and tight.

I have found the surface especially durable. I pre-prepped with olive oil, and always avoid any metal utensil contacting such a surface. Strictly Teflon compatible spatula. I periodically re-oil, and generally use temps at 300 or below. So far works great. Have a good time. I am enjoying chicken enchiladas in maximum quantity.

I din't try crepes myself on this griddle, but I think the size of it is great for making crepes and is nonstick enough as well.

I have a gas range that I use mine on....it will get hot FAST so be careful. I find that once I have mastered the exact right temp then it is good to go and it cooks the crepes extremely fast.

It is the size of the pan. The crepes will be about 8". Great pan works well after it is properly seasoned.

I wouldn't put it directly on the surface, but you could put a cookie sheet or metal tray underneath and you would be ok as long as you are close by with a pitcher of water or hose. It might even be better to put the tray on top of a few bricks or floor tiles just to make sure the table top doesn't get too hot. You can also get concrete board at home improvement stores (used to line chimneys, etc). Then you wouldn't even need the tray.

crepes are 8.5" no hot spots. We are originally from Belgium so we are used to make crepes and we had a difficult time to find the right pan. We even had one shipped from Belgium but this one is really the best.

Yes it does but to make a good crepe you do not need super hot.just to the point when it start to sizzle then medium heat is enough .... crepes willbrown and slide off beautifully

It`s not heavy but it is large you won't be doing any flipping. Yes you can make crepes on this pan provided you season it and keep it that way.

I don't think I would use it commercially, it's small compared to the crepe makers I've seen in restaurants. It works great though! Definitely not "fast" if that's what you're looking for.

I have never made crepes in these pans but have made omelets. The omelets turn out well. I use a lot of butter. It keeps the eggs from sticking and enhances the flavor of the eggs.

I have the 12" version of this pan and on mine I have to say that the bottom is not completely flat-there is a slight hump in the center. Ingredients, including oil, tend to pool up in the edges of the pan while the middle stays bare. It's not an illusion caused by the non-stick qualities. Not good for applications like pancakes or crepes but ok for stir fry, browning meat, etc. That being said, the nonstick is pretty incredible and, overall it's a decent pan. Just depends on if you need a completely flat surface.

definitley pancakes... crepes may get tricky because it isn't non-stick but it all depends on your skills and how much grease you use.
