Let the batter rest. If you can make the batter the night before, or 8 hours before you plan to make crêpes, they will be better than straight away. This resting period allows the gluten in the flour to develop and bond to the milk and eggs, and this yields a more complex flavor.

Crêpes can actually be served hot, room temperature or cold. It really is up to personal preference. Serve warm and fresh after making them for breakfast, or refrigerate and serve chilled with cool toppings for an afternoon snack.
