We tried their brunch menu & the food was scrumptious. The food was fresh & cooked perfectly. The service was a little slow & we had to wait almost 10 mins before a server arrived. It's best to reserve a table in advance.

Nice place for breakfast. Brunch platter is great for two people who don't have a large appetite. The duck confit Benedict tasted quite good, though I would've liked it more if the taste of the sauce didn't overshadow the duck. The friendly bilingual staff made the experience exceptional though so still a 5 star from me.

The brunch options are indeed quite enjoyable & worth a visit. However, I felt that the service lacked attention to detail. While the staff were very welcoming, there were instances where our orders were mixed up; for example, I requested scrambled eggs but received soft-boiled instead, & my friend asked for no ice in their coffee, yet it still arrived with plenty of ice. Despite these minor issues, the overall experience was positive.

My family & I visited Cochon Dingue for brunch while on vacation. We were greeted warmly. The atmosphere is bright & clean. The service was most excellent. I had the breakfast poutine & was very pleased with the combination of potatoes, meats, & sauces. The rest of the family had various benedicts. Everything was good. We liked that breakfast meals included coffee, cocoa, or espresso drinks. Maple sugar was offered for sweetener, which was a nice touch. We also ordered the mango smoothie, which was a refreshing glass of mango puree.

Délicieux brunch, nous étions satisfaits des plats choisis & des accompagnements. Par contre, énorme déception pour la qualité de l'espresso dans nos cappucino.
