Veggie omelette with white bread- delicious.!
Antonio R.

This place was a great find. Close to our hotel and all dishes made from scratch. We had the veggie omelette and the western one. Service is amazing. The owner very friendly. And it does get crowded but it's worth the wait. The owner keep everyone seated once your food comes. We'll be back!!!

Crepe filled with egg, ham and cheese served with maple syrup

Quaint little bistro that serves bagels, omelets and crepes. Very friendly service and tasty meal options

Smoothie

The staff are the most welcoming people, very nice and always checking in on you to make sure everything is ok. The food on the other hand was basic. We ordered two homemade crepes, one stuffed with spinach and formage and the other with Nutella. Yes the crepes are homemade there but definitely would've liked it better if my spinach was cooked beforehand. It was a crepe with a thin layer of raw spinach and sadly the cheese barely melted too. The Nutella crepe was good. Also ordered the cappuccino and smoothie, which was delicious. Overall the service was great, food was nothing to swoon over.

Stopped by for breakfast before heading to airport on latest trip to Montreal. The employees truly are the main reason to visit. All were welcoming and super friendly. I appreciate how easily they were able to accommodate the fact we spoke English only :) I ordered the Complet and while it was not my favorite breakfast (the sausages and ham were quite different than what I'm used to as an American and I felt it was a bit lacking in flavor) Overall the meal was very filling and ingredients seemed fresh. For a pretty solid breakfast or lunch, definitely give Cafe Lulu a try!

WONDERFUL! Cafe Lulu is a cute little corner place in the Village with extraordinarily friendly people behind the counter and excellent and delicious food! We enjoyed breakfast two days in a row - both very good. Coffee is always better outside of the US - scrumptious and sumptuous and delicious Caffe Macchiato! The first day we had a fresh ham, swiss, and asparagus crepes and a chocolate croissant. The second visit we had a delicious egg, ham and cheese croissant and a delicious blueberry crumble bar. The food case is busting with a variety of tasty breakfast and lunch treats - most we didn't have time to try but I'm sure just as great as what we did have. Highly recommend a stop here!

two croissant sandwiches on a plate

Did always pass in front but never stopped before so decided to give them a try this morning for breakfast and definitely not disappointed.As much as they got a really small menu as much as it's a classical little Café bistro which make good sandwich. As for my part I took 2 Croissandwich ham and cheese and and they were delicious.Also staff was super sweet and helpful and love that their menu is written on a chalkboard. Definitely would recommend this place If you're in the village or near Berri UQAM .

Wide variety of very good food for frankly unbelievable prices. Shop owner is very kind as well

Complét

Got there 1st thing in the morning and the staff were welcoming and pleasant, easily transitioning to English. The complet was just right and reasonably priced and tasty and they also substituted turkey for the bacon. Then location is charming albeit under a nightclub which had some loud banging but I figure that would cease as the morning progressed..

On my kid's last full day in Montreal, we were walking around Old Montreal, deciding what to do for…read morelunch, when we realized, we need to have a quintessentially French meal - but something light, and crepes immediately came to mind. And this creperie was centrally located on the main drag (Rue St. Paul), and I know it's been here for years and years, as I've passed the sign for eons. So in we went! The restaurant is located up a flight of stairs and there is no elevator, FYI, so if you are mobility challenged, this would not be ideal. Upstairs, the interior is warm and chalet-like, with wooden planks on walls, exposed brick, lots of light from the windows, and wall shelving containing European and Quebec chocolates, maple syrups, etc. Behind the counter you can see the guy making the crepes one by one. Pretty legit. We wanted to get a savory and a sweet crepe and share them both. We first ordered a chicken and cheese crepe (my kid LOVES chicken) but we were told they had no chicken (strange, at lunch-time in a busy restaurant in a busy part of town, eh? Chicken is so....basic). So we opted for a cheese and asparagus crepe. For the dessert crepe we ordered a classic strawberry crepe. We said we'd share them both and have the strawberry one "for dessert", thinking they'd bring out the savory one first. Perhaps there was a language barrier, but the server brought out both crepes at the same time. Oh well. Both crepes were made with the PERFECT crepe-pancake: super thin, delicate, with the perfect firmness and perfect sweetness. I've not had better crepes even in France. As for the fillings....we weren't that keen on the cheese and asparagus crepe. The asparagus was stringy, and the cheese was way too salty. This savory crepe came with a small salad on the side and, for me, this salad was the best. part of this dish; the lettuce was super fresh and the salad dressing was delicious.The strawberry crepe was wonderful: perfectly filed with the right amount of sweetened fresh strawberries and small dollops of fresh whipped cream. Definitely the strawberry crepe was the hit of the meal. The cheese-asparagus crepe cost $17 and the strawberry one, $15. I thought these prices somewhat high but I guess, for freshly made crepes in a touristy part of town, it's par for the course.

My kids had the Nutella crepes with strawberries and bananas and loved them! They said it was the…read morebest crepes in Montréal!

We did not plan to eat at Spanel. Montreal was raining. We were hungry. Mom spotted a crêpe…read morerestaurant. And thus another carefully researched Dogba travel experience was born. Spanel actually has two outdoor spaces -- a surprisingly large street terrace out front and a smaller backyard patio tucked away behind the restaurant surrounded by greenery. Both looked excellent for dogs. Unfortunately, it was raining. Fortunately, I am adorable. The lovely people at Spanel kindly allowed me to come inside with Mom and Dad, where I settled into my carrier by the window and immediately began supervising brunch. Then Mom discovered the menu. Every crêpe is named after a different Montreal neighborhood. Oh no. This was no longer brunch. This was research. Mom chose The Village, which came with Toulouse sausage, scrambled eggs, caramelized onions and strong cheddar, all tucked inside a buckwheat crêpe. She also had an iced latte. Dad ordered a croissant and Coke. I ordered nothing, despite being Head of the Canada Research Department. Once again, the organizational structure of this family makes absolutely no sense. The restaurant itself is exactly the kind of little neighborhood place we love finding while traveling -- cozy, casual and full of personality, with chalkboard menus covering the walls, exposed brick, plants and even a piano. It feels much more like a local café than a tourist brunch stop. And sometimes the places you stumble upon turn out to be the ones you remember. Dogba's verdict: 4 paws Dog welcome: rainy-day exceptional Letting a soggy traveling pup inside: above and beyond Hidden backyard patio: tiny green oasis Big front terrace: excellent people-watching potential Crêpes named after Montreal neighborhoods: brilliant Mom's iced latte: apparently necessary Dad's croissant: dangerously within sniffing distance Canada Research Department opportunities: extensive Crêpe allocated to Dogba: 0% My only concern is that there are enough neighborhood crêpes on that wall to require several return visits. I am willing to make that sacrifice. For research.
