I was not impressed with Fontaine. I found the crepes over priced and low quality. 
The crepes were soggy, and the tomato sauce they poured over it was extremely salty. I also left still feeling hungry which is not what you want after paying such a steep rate. 
The service was minimal and the waitress did not help me at all when I asked for suggestions. 
We were also crammed between two other couples, giving us no leg room. We also weren't able to talk much because there was absolutely no privacy. They also refused to seat groups of two at the tables in the middle in case a group of four came in (which there were none). 
I have no desire to ever return here. Which is too bad because I had high hopes for Fontaine.

This place is tiny and cute! My chai latte was fantastic (and I'm picky about that), and the service was good....but my food was far too salty, and they only accept 2 credit cards per table! So have fun sorting that out if you bring a big group.

 Amazing food, excellent service, and a charming attitude all combined to make this cafe wonderful. I look forward to eating here again on my next visit. The breakfast bruschetta is one of the beast things I've ever eaten, the French fries were perfect, and the blueberry pie crepe was so good!

Sweet and savory crepes at our table were tasty, but nothing to write home about. The ginger peach sangria that I had was fantastic! We enjoyed ourselves and the staff was kind and attentive, very efficient without feeling hurried.

Romantic little cafe with delicious crepes!  I tried the farmers' market crepe and my fiance had the Alexandria. Both were generous portions and quite fresh, though salty.  The buckwheat crepe was delicious, it reminded me of injera (Ethiopian pancake) and had a wonderful sourdough/nutty flavor.  
My fiance quite enjoyed the bloody Mary, and the cappuccino was pleasant too.  

I did think it was a little expensive, but it is Old Town, so that's just part of it all. Also, parking was tricky - my advice to you is plan ahead and make sure there isn't a parade going on the same day ;)
