    latte in a bowl

    Solid and affordable brunch spot! The service was good and the food was as well. I love the charm of the place

    Daisy W.

    Situated on Queen St. East, it gets quite busy over the weekend. I like how they have a to-go window for those who only want to pick up a pastry and coffee and another line along the side street for dine in. I went a couple of times on a weekend morning, I was able to secure a table within 15 minutes for 2. I like how my quiche is served with a side salad and bread with butter. I especially like their latte that's served in a bowl. Their food is great, coffee is good. Indoor dining can get a little stuffy as they only have a few fans going, but outdoor seating is pretty comfortable.

    Smoked salmon Benedict.

    This Leslieville/ riverside bakery also offer brunch service during the weekend. When weather permit they have a few tables to the right of the establishment for dine in. The ingredients are super fresh, especially the breads!! Highly recommend this place for a casual weekend brunch! Pro: They accept credit card!

    Croque madame
    Clara C.

    Came here on Sunday morning around 1045am and we were able to get a table for 4 right away. It's a cute corner restaurant with both indoor and outdoor dining areas. I got the croque madame and a cortado; both items which I thoroughly enjoyed. I also got a pastry to go since they are known for their pastries - delicious as well. They also have a window where you can order to go items, when we went there was a lineup for that. During lunch time it can get busy and we saw a lineup for the dining room when we left. Would definitely come back for their pastries again!

    Space for a group of eight at 11:30 on a Saturday? You betcha! We were surprised and elated to get a table within ten minutes of arriving, and boy did we ever luck out! The outdoor patio is perfect, even on a winter's cold morning. The plants, French ambiance, and large space with plenty of light is lovely. The menu was perfect for me, and even for everyone else in the group who had many more dietary restrictions than I. Our server, Nathan, was an absolute ICON. We are all outgoing and tend to be loud and sassy, and he matched us so well. Thanks, Nathan, for a truly wonderful few hours with you. The food came out quickly, and there was a lot of space on the small tables to eat - which was a nice surprise. For newbies, the entry to the "dine-in" side can be confusing to find, but other guests and signs are there to help. Head over to the side entrance and wait for a server to greet you. We were slightly bummed that the liquor license still has not arrived, but we still had a fantastic time. À bientôt !

    Hot apple cider

    Maybe I should have read the reviews beforehand so I could've calibrated my expectations better. All I saw were the long lines on multiple weekend mornings my wife and I would pass by this place, so always wanted to try it. We were walking along Queen one early Saturday afternoon and saw there was only a 2 person lineup to dine in and got excited - this was finally our chance to try this popular place! And... I don't get it. We got the brekkie (really bland for something that sounded so good), French onion soup (broth was ok, though there wasn't enough cheese and onions to my liking), chocolate croissant (hardly any chocolate), and all of them were disappointing. The only standouts were the hot apple cider (really good, with the natural apple taste coming strongly through) and service (unfortunately didn't get the name of our server, who was friendly and just had a very light and pleasant way about him). Maybe they had an off day or i just have different tastes, but I won't be saying bonjour to this place anytime soon.

    Rare roast beef

    This is one of the staple brunch spots in the area, and we stopped by for a quick brunch. They often run out of signature items and get full pretty quickly, so we recommend coming a bit earlier. Outdoor seating was seat yourself and indoor seating had a wait. We opted to sit outside as it wasn't too cold with the heaters. As for food, we ordered: 1. Baked French Toast This was very similar to a traditional style French toast, however we found the "toast" more like a banana bread texture and thickness. Paired with this dish was the usual - fruits, syrup, cream. It was a pretty filling dish and we wished there was more fruit. 2. Smoked Salmon with Scrambled Eggs Exactly as described, this dish was paired with shredded potato roti and a baguette. We found the smoked salmon portion a bit small as it was only 1 piece rolled up. As for the rest the roti was crispy and the eggs were what you'd expect. 3. Rare Roast Beef This sandwich was the best item we ordered. Sliced into 2 pieces, it had Brie and a garlic aioli. We enjoyed this combo, and how the baguette wasn't hard. This little brunch spot is a cute place to catch up and grab a quick bite. We found the food mediocre but would return again due to conveniency. @alot.eats

    two plates of food and a glass of orange juice

    I wish I lived closer to Leslieville's Bonjour Brioche because this is one place I could easily visit every weekend without losing interest. On second thought, maybe it's better for my waistline. Transport yourself to an authentic French bakery and cafe, complete with the scent of buttery croissants when you walk in the door. It's the type of smell you want to bottle up. Delight in daily soups, quiche du jour, and a variety of sandwiches on freshly-baked bread. Don't forget to purchase some delicious baked goods to enjoy a la maison. The pain au chocolat, muffins and croissants are all exquisite. As with most brunch spots in This city, Bonjour Brioche doesn't accept reservations, so it's best to arrive early to avoid long lines! You'll thank me later.

    Sunday's are for brunch! Bonjour brioche ended up on my list (don't ask how) and they didn't have a 1-2 hr wait like the other places we wanted to try so it was a no brainer Firstly the service; this one lady literally looked angry the entire time, she looked like she was gunna kill everyone for eating there lol. And was also very curt and not personable, which didn't really add to the Sunday Funday vibe (maybe she was hungover) Food wise, we had: Smoked salmon eggs benedict: I really enjoyed this; I thought the croissant was fluffy and flakey salmon was good sized and the egg was runny with just the right amount of hollandaise sauce Croque madam: I think the bread was too thick and dense to be layered together like that, there was also a thin layer of cheese between the bread which you couldn't really taste, the ham slices were also paper thin. I didn't like this one even though I've enjoyed them in the past Fig tart: it had fig, caramelized onion and blue cheese, and it was delicious! The blue cheese wasn't over powering and the pastry part was warm and flakey! I would definitely come back for just this for takeout, but it could do without the rest of the bread and salad tbh. On every plate they also had salad and buttered toast, which would make the meals very carb heavy. We didn't touch any of the additional breads which was a bit wasteful. The pricing was actually very fair, it was about $10-$13 for each dish, even with their "new price increase" posted on their wall. Overall I'd come back if I was in the area and stop by for some of their French pastries and tartes

    Eggs Benny and French toast
    Mel C.

    Came for a brunch with my BFF. It was recommended by our adult children and it was just ok in truth. Staff lovely. Very small place and extremely busy. Typical yuppie place. We had the eggs Benny and the French toast. Both just ok. Not enough salad or bread with the EB. The French toast was 4 quarters of a slice of brioche. Very tiny serving. For the price it should be more. Especially if they want repeat customers.

    Second time visit with poached eggs on croissant. Croissant is better on its own without heated though, too many toppings takes away the simple buttery flavor. Still love the service and vibe.

    Chai latte bowl
    Tina N.

    Lovely little spot for brunch! I'm a savory breakfast kind of gal so this place definitely hit the mark for me. It's clear that lots of people love this place, there was a line at both the takeout counter and dine-in! I was seated pretty quickly since I was a party of one. My server took my order not long after! I got a chai latte bowl and the quiche du jour (Lorraine) which came with a side salad and some baguette with butter. Food came to me in no time and it looked so good, tasted even better! The quiche was so fluffy and had all the right flavours. My latte was made perfectly. Definitely recommend this spot and will be visiting again soon!

    Love the cream sauce and caviar! Smoked salmon rosti and scrambled eggs with baguette. $13.50
    Mishelle Y.

    I agree with what others say about this place. My food was just mediocre. I was still hungry after and I have a small appetite at 100lb weight class. It felt very European portion sizing. My butter was not warm or melted and came with an untoasted baguette that was not the softest. However felt very euro tasting. I got a the salmon rosti scrambled eggs. Tasty but did dip everything in ketchup. I would say the price could be cheaper for its portion sizing. I wouldn't recommend making a journey out here but guess wouldn't mind coming back

LOL We had the big skillet both days as well as the breakfast sandwich. While there were some variances, we enjoyed both experiences. The first visit was better in my opinion - the potatoes were tender and not overcooked and my fruit cup didn't have a lot of cantaloupe. I have shared pictures of the menu as well. We had sparkling water and diet cola both times. Our beverages never ran dry. There is an upstairs that overlooks the first floor dining area. We wondered if anyone had ever spilled a beverage that landed on guests below. We could definitely see the possibility of that happening. They also had a nice patio, however, on the hotter days, not sure how enjoyable the city smell would be while trying to eat. Interesting - they only had one bathroom. So we observed a line. And there are tables right next to the door. I would avoid those seats if possible. A little too close to the restroom in my opinion. If we are in the area again, we would definitely eat here again, although they may be at the new location if we visit in the future. I look forward to seeing the upgraded features at the new location.

The almond croissant, when you're lucky enough to claim one before nine, delivers a genuinely impressive balance of shattering, buttery layers and a filling laced generously with almond cream, more Parisian in spirit than most bakeries attempting the same feat across this city. Even the raspberry version, when available, carries the same confident hand in the kitchen. The coffee program deserves equal praise. A well pulled latte and a properly balanced cappuccino suggest a team that treats espresso with the same seriousness as their pastry case, and it shows in the cup. Where the experience finds room to grow is in the choreography of the space itself. The room is petite, charming in its cobalt blue framed way, but the flow between ordering and pickup can feel cramped during a rush, and seating fills quickly. The patio, however, is a genuine reward, a shaded perch worth claiming on a slow afternoon. This is a cafe operating with real ambition and skill, let down only occasionally by its own popularity. Arrive early, claim a croissant while you still can, and settle onto the patio; you'll leave understanding exactly why regulars keep coming back.

Food (3.5/5) - the menu is a combination of small and large plates ideal for sharing. A cosmopolitan menu of diverse items from many different cuisines. - Baja Caesar Salad - baby romaine, corn, caesar dressing, agave bacon, croutons, grana padano, chili spice. This was pretty good, romaine was fresh and sauce not too overpowering with a slight kick to it. - Coconut Shrimp with mango salsa, lime, chipotle aioli. Also pretty good... shrimp was cooked fine and the garnishes worked with it. - Tuna Ceviche with avocado, cilantro, corn, red onions, leche de tigre, cancha, plantain. This one was average. The sashimi chunks were pretty average and the overall mix seemed to lack flavour and moistness. - Hamachi Crudo with avocado, elderflower, pickled strawberry, jalapeño, pistachio, basil, olive oil. This was one pretty bad... some of the worst hamachi I have ever had! Overly fishy and off-colour. Service (4/5) - server and assistants were friendly and generally attentive. Some lapses in check ins from time to time. Rooftop is first come, first serve so a reservation does not mean you will be seated quickly and may have to hang out in the interior bar or tables until ready. Atmosphere (4.75/5) - you really cannot top the view from Kost. It has multiple look out areas besides the patio dining area by the infinity pool. They have a raised photo pedestal which is ideal to take pictures with the Tower, Rogers Centre and lake in the background. They also have some trendy couches and sitting areas as well. The interior dining area is also pretty good with window views outside and a California vibe to it. Overall (4/5) - Yes, the food is on the average side for the price. However, it really is a great atmosphere for dining, even if sitting inside. It is a bucket list destination at a minimum and worth a repeat imo.
