Cafe Meria's Albacore Tuna Croffle

Tastemaker

By Anna Faller | June 22, 2024

We all remember the 2010 cronut craze, but have you ever heard of a croffle? This genius little pastry calls for buttery croissant dough baked in a waffle iron, and it’s begging to be stacked with toppings! Quell the mid-morning snackies with a stop into Café Meria in downtown Charlevoix, where croffle flavors range from sweet to savory and everything in between. For the ultimate protein-packed bite, the Albacore Tuna Croffle ($11) is our summer go-to. It features a crispy, flaky croffle served warm and stuffed with scratch-made tuna salad (ingredients: tuna, crunchy apple, celery, lemon juice, and avocado oil mayo), topped with house-pickled onions and local microgreens. We’ll have our waffle-shaped cake and eat it too, please! Find Café Meria at 101 Mason St. in Charlevoix, or place an order online at cafemeria.com. (231) 431-0143
