Enfin testé le Cochon Dingue pour un brunch !
J'avais toujours voulu y aller & j'ai enfin pu le faire. Le personnel est agréable & le service sympathique. La nourriture est bonne, sans réelle surprise, des classiques bien exécutés.
Je mets 4 étoiles car nos assiettes n'étaient malheureusement pas chaudes & la tasse de mon latté aurait mérité d'être nettoyée après que le barista ait renversé du lait dessus.
Avec un peu plus de rigueur sur ces petits détails, vous aurez facilement les 5 étoiles à ma prochaine visite !

I went there twice the same day..for brunch & supper.
Brunch was amazing , all of it, food , service , atmosphere
Supper I was given some cold fish & chips. The fish was still frozen under the breading. The server quickly went to change it & everything was ok afterwards.
The liver was extremely delicious

We came in for dinner, few adults & kids & also came back for breakfast on a different day

The atmosphere is very cozy
The service is super quick & the staff are very nice

There were kid friendly menu options that the kids seem to enjoy very much

Dinner 4/5
I ordered
Beef tartare which was fresh & well seasoned,also comes in a nice size portion

Ceaser salad with grilled chicken - the salad itself was nice ,I was a bit thrown off by the fact that the chicken was cold though but that might be just my personal preference

Washed it all down with the Bloody mary ( it has a different name on the menu but for the life of me I can't remember)- the cocktail comes with this bacon wrapped sosage that was very yummy , the tomato blend is tasty but was a bit light on the alcohol portion in my opinion

Breakfast/Brunch 5/5
We ordered different combos & everyone enjoyed everything!
I ordered
Eggs Benedict with duck confie , side of crispy bacon,side of crape & a Berry smoothie
The crape was delicious as is ,no need to even put maple on it
The eggs- perfectly made & I like that you can order 1 or 2 eggs. This allowed me to be able to taste more sides because ordered 1 egg.
The apple butter is delicious
The smoothie was super fresh as well
Very recommend for brunck/breakfast.Have some patiance, gets very bussy in the morning
