Unpleasant tourist food. Gloppy eggs, fruit cups looked a week old, burnt coffee. It's one of the few spots open for breakfast before 8 but you're much better off doing a cafe for coffee & croissant. Lesson learned the hard way. One star added for the fruit smoothie sample that actually tasted good.

Always a great place to go eat breakfast! I live their egg benedict. They are good & their potatoes! My God! Please! If you like onions & great spicies, these potatoes are really flavorful!!! Nom nom nom
This place is spacious & cozy! Really clean & peaceful.
I recommend to book your visit because it's a popular place to eat!! 😀
The service is really efficient & the employees are really kind & take the time to explain the menu if needed.
Their apple butter spread is to die for! Please try it!!!

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

Came here for breakfast & ordered the Eggs Benedict. The food was decent - not exceptional, but satisfying. Service was good & attentive, & the restaurant was clean & well maintained. Its downtown location makes it very easy to get to, especially if you're staying nearby, & it's nice that they have multiple locations around the city. If you're visiting for breakfast, I'd highly recommend trying the French toast.

Great breakfast. They have some gluten-free items on their menu for my son, who is a picky eater. He had their GF toast & scrambled eggs.

Very disappointed with our experience! When we came to QC last, I remembered having a good experience here & this was the first place I wanted to come back to when we returned to QC & wish we left the original memory of Cochon Dingue in the memory banks.
Sadly, we liked the ambiance better than the food & service. Food was adequate, but did not taste fresh. Had the duck confit benedict & this is one of the worst. The sauce was not warm; nor was the egg or duck. The potatoes were the best part & partly because they were hot-ish. The food seemed like it was cooked in batches & assembled when ordered w/o reheating.
Our server was so fake & unwelcoming. She spoke to us in what she thought was a friendly manner, but it came off as fake & condescending. We think she thought was good at acting to appease, but she lacked skills to be inviting.
She never checked on our food only when she dropped it off & when we noticed there was no ketchup (which she took as part of the order), we did not see her for quite a while (over 5 mins) so we asked another server as the place was almost dead & servers were all bunched together & chatting & we wanted to start eating.
Our server magically re-appeared when we were asking another server for ketchup (politely), she made a grandiose gesture & started to speak in French that it was such a calamity that it was forgotten (clearly thinking we could not speak French). After this she disappeared again for over 10-15 mins & we had to ask for coffee from a different server.
It was all offensive & our server never came back to check on things again till she presented the bill & waited for the tip. She clearly did not get a good tip.
The rest of what we would have tipped was given to the very warm & friendly host/barista who had sat us & end up making us the coffee we asked for.
Side note - when we were leaving, our server was assisting the Francophone couple beside us in a friendly & animated tone. So it wasn't just a bad day for her. She choose to be lazy & unkind. The only reason for an extra star was because of the host/barista that we had dealings with at almost the end of the meal. Kudos to him!

Food was pretty weak for the cost. Everything arrived cold from coffee to food. I ordered the healthy breakfast & it was 20 dollars for 1 poached egg on an English muffin, a small amount of cottage cheese & a meager amount of fruit. Some of the dishes our group ordered were tasty (the country duo wasn't bad), but everything was cold & in general we were pretty underwhelmed. It's a huge place, though, so if you need to get into somewhere with a hearty breakfast on a Saturday or Sunday morning, you'll likely be able to get in pretty quickly.
