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..

Such a lovely cafe in Montreal! The interior is very nice and the vibes here are so chill. There is…read morea decent amount of seating but of course you can always take your order to go. They can be pretty busy so I suggest arriving early. You order your food at the front and pick up your drink on the side. If you're dining in and you've ordered food, they'll give you a number so you can grab a seat and they can bring your food to you. My cappuccino was good. :) We got the Suzy (Avocado Toast with Bacon) and the Aurora (Smoked Salmon Bagel). Both things were delicious and can even be shared if you normally don't eat a big breakfast. The breakfasts we got were around $20 and $22 each. With our one drink and tip, it ended up being over $60 for breakfast at a little cafe, which is slightly more than what I'd normally pay - but perhaps Montreal prices are a little higher? Either way, it was still a nice visit.

The salmon bagel was particularly disappointing and almost inedible. We also tried the spinach and feta scone, but it was quite doughy yet dry, and we couldn't manage more than a few bites. The coffee was decent and the service was fine, but neither was enough to make up for the food. Maybe we simply caught them on an off day, but based on our experience, Tommy didn't quite live up to its reputation. It's a cute yet lively spot to check out for the atmosphere, but I'd go in with tempered expectations when it comes to the food.

The most perfect brunch spot to visit whenever you're in Montreal. This is by far one of my…read morefavourite spots for brunch. I went a long time ago, back in 2021, and I was so happy to have gone again since they relocated to Old Montreal. The exterior is this new building, but inside, it feels like you're in an old building with rustic textures and colours. The ambiance is so lovely and it truly is the best place for delicious brunch items and taking cute pictures too! My friends and I visited on a Saturday morning without reservations, but we went relatively earlier. We were seated right away for a table of 4 and were served teas and coffee. I ordered the Bone Marrow & Duck Confit which consisted of a country-style bread, duck poached egg, bone marrow, confict duck leg, manchego shavings, herb salted crumble and green peas. It's a massive dish and honestly everything tasted amazing all together. The bone marrow was perfectly cooked and the duck poached egg meld everything together. They also give you another bowl so you can put the marrow once you're done eating it. The bread was needed to soak up every part of this delicious dish. Other items ordered was the Foie Gras (Chef's specialty) which had brioche bread, duck poached egg, caramelized onion compote and crispy proscuitto chips. The chips were a wonderful item to pair with the seared foie gras. The foie gras was perfectly cooked. The Rustic is another fan favourite which had brioche bread, duck poached egg, sautéed mushrooms. pulled pork, potatoes and argula sprouts. it is such a beautiful dish - nice colours, many ingredients and placed well on the plate; not to mention it was so good too! The last item was the Croque Monsieur which has country-style bread, maple-glaed Gaspor acon, confit tomatoes, cheddar, duck sunny side-up egg on an endive salad. You can't pick it up and munch on it, so you know how big this must have been! Even cut into pieces, it requires some maneuvering to munch on it. Great place for brunch. Awesome service too. I would highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a brunch spot!

The bar is first come, first served, so if you forget to book ahead, it's definitely worth trying your luck. You can still order anything from the full menu. The modern, upscale interior sets the tone for a fancy brunch experience that feels both elegant and welcoming. Foie gras for breakfast? Absolutely yes. They also have a full bar for anyone who wants something pretty to sip on while enjoying their meal. The servers were bilingual in French and English, and they were kind, attentive, and made the whole experience smooth from start to finish. My goal was to eat as much foe grais as I can on this trip so I ordered the Foie Gras Poached Eggs. OMG starting off with the bread that was on the bottom, it was so soft and fluffy. Literally melted in my mouth. The foie gras had a beautiful sear and was rich and silky, with a texture that honestly reminded me of ice cream. There was also a touch of sweetness in the sauce that cut through the richness in the best way. Every bite was perfectly balanced. I was super impressed and will absolutely try to visit again the next time I'm in Montreal.
