Arthur's was absolutely delicious! I still think about those cottage cheese pancakes daily. It's one of those TikTok-viral brunch spots that actually lives up to the hype. Everything we ordered was fantastic, and the ambience was beautiful, even in the middle of January. The service was kind and quick, which made the experience even better. We ordered the breakfast sandwich ($15), the latke smorgasbord ($20), and the syrniki ($18). Every dish was a 10/10, absolutely delicious. I'd definitely come back! read more

Absolutely awesome. Well worth the modest wait on a Saturday morning. My husband and I shared waffles, pancakes, latkes, and challah with honey butter. All of it was so good. The coffee is strong and the strawberry lemonade tea was tart (as it should be). The waffles were rich and buttermilk-y served of course with plenty of maple syrup. They pancakes take a while but that means you've got time to eat and then make room for more when it arrives (plan for a 25 min wait). The challah was good but my least favorite dish. On its own is never say that but alongside the others -- wasn't necessary. The latkes were shredded but amazingly...fluffy? They needed a bit more apple sauce and sour cream :) but some of the best I've had that I didn't make. Highly recommend this spot! read more

Arthur's is a Montreal institution. The crowds line up by 11:30 on a weekday and before 10 on weekends. The cottage cheese pancake, home-made gravlax, and looked are special. read more

Place is great! Also very packed with no reservations so show up and get your name on the list asap! Had the banana pancakes and they were incredible. They have cottage cheese in them which I have now taken the recipe for myself at home because it was so delicious. Also had beef bacon which I've never had before but was great as well! My friend had the grand slam which was a mixture of pancakes chicken and bacon. The vibe there is cool and the staff was extremely friendly. I will definitely be back upon visiting Montreal again. read more

Finally got a chance to try after coming once and being told it would be a 45 min wait. Inside the small and crammed with seating. Despite this, service was impeccable. Staff came by to checkup on you occasionally, plates were taken out of your way moments after you're done with the food. Arthur's sando - a thick chicken snitzel in their challah? bread. Inside there was a good amount of sauce, vegetables and pickles to compliment the chicken. Would get again. Jack Johnson - some thiccc pancakes. Bananas caramelized perfectly on the outside. Inside, had bits of cottage cheese to add a certain creaminess to the flavour. Syrup around the pancake was the perfect amount. This is quite heavy, but absolutely great to try! Also tried their London fog and iced tea (no sugar) both had an interesting twist on the drink, so nice to try. read more

Visit: 3/2022 Review finished: 3/2024 Unfortunately I am attempting to finish this review in 2024, long after visiting this establishment so I do not recall my visit here in detail besides giving it 5/5 stars. I found some pics/vids from that visit and it looks like I ordered the McArthurs, the chicken sandwich schnitzel. I must have loved it. Also tried the chocolate chip pancakes and the bagel with lox. To drink, I either had an iced latte with or without khalua/baileys. I also remember the spot was packed and we didn't have reservations. There was a bit of a wait but we went nearby to get coffee in the meantime. So in my very trusted book of ratings, I absolutely enjoyed this spot and the food was amazing. So I'll be back and do a better job reviewing next time. read more

Saw this place recommended by a couple of youtubers so we went to check it out! An aesthetic looking restaurant for brunch food. We went to the Le Cathcart location which probably has a shorter wait than their original location. We didn't make reservations and waited about 10-15 minutes. There's plenty of seating, but they limit the number of customers because there's not enough staff. We got the latke smorgasbord ($19). Great spread of breakfast food. The eggs were the highlight (and recommended by the server) - creamy and thick. Nothing like eggs I've ever had and worth a try. Latke was crispy on the outside and tasted real good with the smoked salmon which is always solid. I really enjoyed the cucumbers that were sprinkled with a hint of dil, making it even more refreshing and helped to cleanse the palate. We also ordered the syrniki ($18), which are cottage cheese pancakes. Surprisingly not that heavy on the stomach and very tasty. Pancakes itself were not overly sweet and fluffier than your average. There was sprinkles of salt over it but surprisingly not as weird as I expected and actually balanced out the sweetness of everything else. I was most impressed by how smooth and clean the maple syrup tasted. It had no artificial taste and is less viscous. Definitely a must-order here, worth it to share too. 2 is definitely enough to fill you up and a bit more! Would say it's probably one of the better brunch spots I've been to, albeit a bit pricy (but what isn't nowadays). A lot of seating but service can be quite slow. Great place to chat and chill. read more

Decided to check this place out as it was trending and heard lots of great reviews. Came here on a weekday for brunch with a couple of friends. We came early around 11 am and there was a bit of a line but well worth it! The food is a bit on the pricey side, upper end of $20 but well worth it. The food is unique and tasty and doesn't leave you feeling heavy. The atmosphere is also lovely with lots of great decor and great opportunities for photo ops. Highly recommend read more

Arthurs c'est un resto de brunch suffisant. La nourriture est bonne, mais les portions de quelques plats sont un peu petites pour les prix. Mais d'autres plats par exemple les pancakes sont assez. Les serveurs sont très très sympas. Il nous a traité comme des amis. C'était très amusant. Arthurs is a decent brunch spot. The food is good, but the portions may not be as big as the price. Others are enough, like the pancakes. The service is super nice, almost like an old friend. It was a lot of fun. read more

Been following this restaurant on Instagram since planning my trip to Montreal from LA. The blueberry pancakes looked unbelievable and I was hoping to try but alas, blueberry season ended the day before I arrived. The "plain" version did not disappoint- light and airy, cheesy, dusted with salt and bathed in the best maple syrup Canada has to offer! The Beef Bacon was less Bacon, more beef flavored and I could have eaten more more more! The Matzo Ball soup with fresh dill was just like my mom used to make- they need a bigger bowl!! So many other dishes I want to try- latkes, chicken schnitzel...next trip for sure! Congrats Reagan - Arthur would be so proud!! PS- Challah (french toast) was divine! read more

Montreal does brunch right. It always has. If you want sweet or savoury, you've got choices. Cottage cheese pancakes topped with maple syrup and strawberries. Smorgasbord providing a sample of everything and making you want more. The bourbon iced tea perfectly balanced and refreshing. An elevated indoor diner ambiance or you can sit outside on their sunny terrace. Service was perfect. read more

Finally got to Arthur's after years of recommendations from some friends. When we got there we were greeted by the host and he clearly explained there were over 50 people in front of us and the wait would be 1 1/2 hours like a .... WELL Worth the wait. The brunch was fantastic. Some of the best pancakes I have ever had. The salami and eggs was delicious and the Moroccan toast was amazing. Our service was flawless and the ambiance was what you would expect in a gem like this. It really felt like a community haunt. You can feel the love and history in this place. Highly recommended! read more

Came down Montreal with 4 other ladies for a bachelorette, and wanted to try this brunch place that seemed very popular. I went to spin class that morning and came super hungry. It was around 10:30am when I met with the other ladies and we were on the waiting list. Got in within 20-25 minutes. Cute vibes and IG pic worthy, but the store itself is very small, best for groups 2-4 ppl max. We were seated in a 4 person table with a chair on the side, whereas another group of 5 got the table for 6 right after us. The menu isn't overly extensive, but we did some research and knew just what we wanted. I ordered myself the latke smorgasbord. Food probably took 20 minutes to make, but with great company, and chatting away, it didn't seem too long before the food arrive. My dish was so nicely presented, it looked too pretty to eat, but as I said, I came hungry, I dugged right in. It came with latke (fried potato pancake), cucumber salad, soft scrambled egg, smoked salmon and toasted challah bread. Everything complemented each other so well. I was able to finish the plate without feeling too heavy or too full. Just the right amount. I got to try a bite of my friends moroccan toast (they only serve it on weekends) and it was mind blowing! It was like having tacos on toast without any of the Mexican spices. Would come back in a heart beat. read more

Eater Montreal says this is one of the essential spots to have brekkie. They are right! Love gravlax? cured salmon? This is the spot for you. As a plate ($25CAD) with sweet roasted beets, apple and a zesty lemon vinaigrette plus the classic accompaniments (sour cream, caviar, dill adn tomatoes). No matter how you eat it, there is no denying the sweet, salty, perfect cure on the tender, fatty salmon. Next up, syrniki, AKA cottage cheese pancakes. Honestly, it sounded so bizarre that it was a must order and wow, different in all the right ways. Chewy, denser with Fluffy air pockets. The texture is interesting. The taste, dairy forward.. Simply topped with maple syrup; good eats. The "Jack Johnson" adds caramelized bananas to the stellar cakes. Finally the latkes. Who doesn't love a crisp fried potato fritter served with house made, apple sauce, creamy horse radish and sour cream? Simple, solid. Solid spot for breakfast or lunch that delivers some of the multicultural flavors of Quebec. read more

Always busy place, we were lucky to get a table for 2 pretty quick on a Wednesday at lunch time. The menu is not the brunch menu but covers all the bases. We had Avo Toast and Breakfast Sandwich, both delicious and a fun vibe. Great service too. read more

Easily the best brunch food I know in Montreal. First of all this whole place is pink. I love that. It's packed but it's still spacious. People are coming in and out and the entryway almost has no space, but the dining areas are pretty spacious. The wait time for dining area was around 1.5 hours so we decided to do a take out, which was a 20 min wait. The pancakes are incredibly delicious. They're crunchy on the outside and the inside is so soft. They're as soft as fluffy Japanese pancakes and as filling as buttercream pancakes. The chicken, salmon, salad, and beef bacon portions were generous and filling. The chicken is so crunchy and perfect. The Grand Slam is basically every brunch lover favourite. We ordered three out of four brunch menu items available and do not regret ordering almost the entire menu. We didn't even have a chance to take photos because it was so good we didn't pause while eating. I would truly come back to Montreal just for the cottage cheese pancakes from here. One portion would honestly fill up two people. The long lines outside and extensive wait list truly make sense. read more

This is the third time we have been to Arthur's and we live in Central Florida and took my mom she loved it. We had to park at the IGA 4 blocks away because we didn't know the way there that well and tons of construction (and hey IGA don't get excited, we shopped afterwards and normally wouldn't so there is that)! A :15 wait, not a :20 like the lovely lady said that took our name. We sat on a bench outside the restaurant and it was nice in the sun. Would hate to wait on a rainy day! If it is raining, bring a large umbrella and patience! Inside a few black and photos adorn the walls and music, well, I don't remember? We were seated in the corner next to the kitchen and the food was out within :15. It was hot, fresh and reasonable with how busy they were. The cottage cheese pancakes with maple syrup seems thicker than last time but man OH man are they are delicious ! The scrambled eggs, onions, sour cream, salsa and guacamole is good but I would say putting cold ingredients on top of warm cools them off toot-sweet! Eat it fast or yuck Go, enjoy a nosh or two at Arthur's!!!! read more

They don't take reservations, so we came around 11am on Saturday and there were quite a few people waiting outside. We told the hostess our name/number and she told us it would be 1 hr to 1.5 hrs wait. Luckily, they text you when the table is ready so you can grab a coffee and come back. The wait ended up being about an hour, which wasn't terrible. The restaurant was packed to the brim and the tables for 2 are pretty small and squished close with the table beside us. There was a brunch dish with fried chicken on pancakes with an egg, and it was so darn tasty! The pancakes are dense and eggy, so it was different but still really good. The other dish we got was a poached egg, smoked salmon, and avocado on a latke (potato pancake) with a side of arugula. I found this to be alright, nothing special and the portion was a bit small for this dish. Overall, we enjoyed our brunch, but one of the dishes left something to be desired. read more

Hands down most satisfying chicken & pancakes I have EVER had. Arthur's is my favourite brunch place in Montreal. Yes it's chaotic and it's always crowded. But they let you leave your name and number and just text you when your table is ready. We usually walk around the neighborhood and grab coffee while waiting. 100% would recommend the grand slam when you go. The chicken is cooked to perfection and the pancakes are sooo fluffy. read more

The service was great from beginning to end. We were seating fairly quickly despite the restaurant is quite small. Our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and had very good recommendations.

Will be adding this to my list of places to go when in Montreal! Merci! read more

This is our favorite breakfast in Montreal. The menu is large enough to give options and each dish is simple, but executed beautifully with an attention to detail and a subtle addition. The scramble had smooth, runny eggs with a bit of kale, topped with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream. Simple but cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The eggs and salami also included perfectly cooked scrambled eggs, a delicious potato latke, and salami with a hint of sweetness. The only knock is the average coffee or that the cold brew comes with cream already added. Still worth coming back to again and again! read more

This is an authentic cafe offering a delicious variety of breakfast and brunch options daily. The interior is bright and cheerful with black and white photos of family' members and a very cute dog. It feels homey and comfortable. There was a nice buzz of patrons chatting while enjoying their meals. I had the gravlax. It was perfectly fresh and tasty. My guests all had the chicken sandwich which was served on challah bread that looked like someone's grandma made it. I was a little jealous but I don't eat chicken. :) Not a crumb was left on the plates. Oh, I should mention that the iced cold lemonade was served with a fresh slices of both lime and lemon. Nice touch. This place is a neighborhood gem. As a matter of fact, I might delete this. read more

I finally made it to Arthur's Nosh Bar for breakfast with a wonderful friend. Yes Montreal's iconic breakfast and brunch institution on Notre-Dame Street West, that bears the name of one of the co-founders father, that offers reinvented Jewish cuisine with some Moroccan influences. The place where not a weekday or weekend goes by without a waiting line up of faithful regulars and newcomers. We settled in with a couple of refreshing cocktails and were ready for breakfast to pave the way for a beautiful weekend! Famished, we both devoured the McArthurs sandwich, with seasoned chicken schnitzel, iceberg slaw, skrug mayo, pickles served on a challah bun. But also the Syrniki, fluffy cottage cheese pancakes served with maple syrup, maldon salt and fresh local strawberries! Next time we'll have to try the more copious brunch menu - available on Saturday and Sunday only. read more

Brunch in Montreal is always one of my musts and every time I go I do like to try somewhere new. This time around, my friend found Arthurs - a brunch place that puts a spin on classic Jewish foods/dishes. Knowing they have a form of delicious fried potatoes (latkes), I was more than down to go. First impressions, fairly easy to find though at the time we visited, there was a huge construction trailer blocking the storefront. I'm assuming that will be gone eventually. The restaurant was packed when we arrived so we put our name down and waited about 30 minutes for a table. The restaurant is tightly packed (slight concern for COVID spacing reasons) but we committed and made sure to wear our masks unless we were eating/drinking. The space is brightly lit and cozy and looked clean so no concerns there. It was great lighting for photos XD The menu had a variety options for meat eaters, vegetarians, pescatarians, kosher guests etc so you will find something to eat here no matter your restrictions. On our visit we went with The Shah Special, The Challah French Toast, The Moroccan Toast, Eggs and Salami, and the Grand Slam. I must say every dish was perfectly cooked, flavourful and quite delicious. Not too heavy like most brunches can be, I left pleasantly satisfied. One thing to note here is they make their scrambled eggs the french way, buttery and creamy and oh so delicious. I've never had them before this day and man I'm definitely a fan. If you're not a fan of runny eggs, I'm sure they would substitute the way it can be cooked if asked. Apparently the Grand Slam (with fried chicken) was spicy so if you like spicy fried chicken, go for that. It was very good from what I was told. The Moroccan toast was super delicious and had all those moroccan flavours you'd look for without being overpowering. Personally not a fan of smoked Salmon, I didn't try the Shah special but judging from my friend's clean plate at the end, it was really good. The French toast was good though a bit on the sweet side as it seems they infused the maple syrup and sugar right into the bread almost. I personally have a sweet tooth so I was in heaven. SO TL;DR, the reviews are right - Arthurs is a place to head for some solid brunch that isn't just your bacon/eggs and eggs beni. GO! read more

Went to Arthur's to grab a roast beef sandwich and the Serniki. They were both delickous and portions were generous. The roast beef sandwich had horseradish, onions and was super tasty. The Serniki was a little different from what I am used to but it was good, the mapple syrup twist adds flavors. Service was okay but could have been more attentive/warm. This is a solid Deli offering many jewish diaspora comfort food. I recommend this place. read more
