Granby

Review Summary

C'est Belge is widely praised as a standout brunch spot in Granby, known for fresh ingredients, generous portions and a Belgian touch that shines in dishes like eggs Benedict on waffles and Liege waffles with speculoos. The menu offers a creative range of breakfast and brunch options with plenty of gluten free choices, and the presentation is frequently described as appealing and the portions satisfying. Service is described as warm and attentive by many, with standout moments noted, though one location has been called out for slower pacing and a less friendly server. The two Granby locations attract regulars from Montreal and beyond, who say the experience is consistently delicious, inventive, and worth the detour, thanks to a cozy atmosphere and a focus on quality ingredients and creative chef specials.View restaurant profile
