Excellent place for breakfast

I showed up for brunch at 10:15 AM on a warm spring Sunday & there were a number of free tables. This is surprising given that the food, service, & atmosphere are all excellent.

My partner & I were sat beside the centuries old rock foundation that had a steady flow of water, which was very cool. The server was great & there are a ton of menu items ranging from healthy to sinful. Everything was cooked perfectly. Each breakfast dish includes coffee.

I would definitely go back here again.

I came here for breakfast & then I was befuddled when the hot chocolate was in a bowl & it was yummy. Then we had lots of French pastries that were delicious & the waiters were amazing.

We loved this place for breakfast! Staff was friendly & attentive. Food was delicious. We had the eggs benedict with ham (juicy pulled pork!) & the breakfast poutine (delish!). Also enjoyed the oatmeal! Highly recommend!

My family & I visited during Christmas Eve 2024. Because of the holidays the place was absolutely crowded, however we waited in line & finally they took our names down & we had to wait another 30 min to get our table. It was definitely worth the wait 100%. We had the best breakfast here during our Christmas vacation. The food was delicious. They gave us a small shot of fruit smoothie which was so delicious. The service was nice & the atmosphere is lively & nice too. I would definitely come back here again with reservations.

The service here was great, slightly slow with the business but attentive as could be & the food was delivered so quickly. Bloody Cachons were amazing & the breakfast poutine made my whole day!

We popped in for breakfast. The food was excellent, & my latte had pretty foam art. Our waitress was so friendly & sweet. There are several of these restaurants in Montréal & Quebec so stop by any location.

Food exceeded our expectations! We arrived a little late for the breakfast menu, which ends at 11:15 on weekdays, so we had the ribs & the steak. Everything was tasty & well prepared.

We went for breakfast. The food was great. Zero complaints. Coffee, latte, espresso included with your meal. Service was professional & prompt. Complimentary smoothie "shot" to start.
