Copper Branch

Le Plateau-Mont-Royal

Vegan/100% Plant-Based Vegan Options Healthy Burgers Sandwiches Breakfast

Review Summary

Reviews of Copper Branch paint a mostly positive picture of vegan and vegetarian options, with bowls, burgers and desserts praised for flavor, variety and attractive presentation, and a cozy decor. The service is often described as fast and friendly, though the kitchen can be short staffed at times which leads to some wait times. Some commenters note a mismatch between outdoor seating promised in ads and what is actually available, and a few mention cleanliness issues or a plain dining area. Value is a mixed bag: several say the food is nourishing and reasonably priced for plant based fare, while others feel portions have shrunk and prices rose, making the experience feel pricey. There is recognition of gluten free options, and the general copper branch dishes are described as tasty when prepared well, though changes to a signature dish have led to complaints about texture and flavor. Overall Copper Branch is regarded as a reliable go to for plant based fast food, with many repeat visits and strong praise for flavor and service, even as some reviews caution about price, portion size and occasional inconsistency.View restaurant profile
