Katy Mills Expands Dining and Shopping Options with La Crep’n Go, Ciccio’s Pasta and Pika Park Now Open in Katy
Katy-area families and shoppers have a few new reasons to linger a little longer at Katy Mills.
The popular indoor shopping center in Katy, TX has officially welcomed two new dining destinations—La Crep’n Go and Ciccio’s Pasta—along with specialty retailer Pika Park, expanding both its culinary lineup and its unique shopping experience. For residents across Katy, Cinco Ranch, Fulshear and West Houston, the additions add variety to a mall that has long served as a gathering place as much as a retail hub.
For many local families, a trip to Katy Mills isn’t just about shopping—it’s dinner after soccer practice, a weekend outing with grandparents, or a place teens meet up with friends. These new openings offer fresh options that reflect the area’s continued growth and appetite for diverse dining and specialty retail.
La Crep’n Go Brings Sweet and Savory Crepes to Katy Mills
Now open near Entry 4, La Crep’n Go officially joined the Katy Mills dining lineup in Winter 2025.
Built around the idea that “happiness comes in every bite,” La Crep’n Go specializes in freshly made crepes prepared to order. The concept blends European-style crepe tradition with modern flavor combinations, offering both sweet and savory options.
Crepes—originating in France and long celebrated for their thin, delicate texture—have grown in popularity across the United States as a versatile meal or dessert option. At La Crep’n Go, guests can expect sweet crepes filled with fruit, chocolate spreads and whipped toppings, alongside savory selections layered with cheeses, meats and vegetables.
The made-to-order format allows customers to watch as batter is poured, spread and flipped on a hot griddle before being folded around fresh ingredients. For shoppers looking for a lighter lunch option or an indulgent dessert after dinner, La Crep’n Go adds a flexible stop to the Katy Mills food offerings.
As experiential dining continues trending in suburban retail centers like Katy Mills Mall, concepts such as creperies provide a fresh alternative to traditional fast-casual chains.
