Apollo Indoor Dog Park & Coffee Bar

Open until 8 pm

(22)

Griffintown

Café Pastries Sandwiches

Review Summary

Reviewers describe Apollo Indoor Dog Park & Coffee Bar as a fresh Montreal concept with clearly divided zones for small and large dogs, a cafe area, a workspace and a dog wash, creating an inviting space even for people without dogs. The coffee shop offers pastries and an extensive drink menu, with iced drinks priced higher than hot ones, a pattern seen in nearby cafes. An entry fee per dog to use the off leash areas applies regardless of cafe purchases, which can make the experience pricey for frequent visitors. Proof of vaccination is required. Membership packages start at a monthly rate and include perks such as free drinks and access to the washing area, appealing especially to Griffintown residents. Parking is extremely difficult. Feedback highlights friendly staff and a passionate owner, attractive coffee and a well designed space with separate play areas for different dog sizes and a walk in shower for members; many reviewers say they will return.View restaurant profile

Eggstatic

Open until 5 pm

(161)

Griffintown

Breakfast Crêpes

Review Summary

Eggstatic is a calm, spacious brunch spot with a halal friendly menu that blends Middle Eastern flavors with Canadian classics, and it earns praise for generous portions, tasty dishes, and a welcoming atmosphere. The service is frequently described as friendly and attentive, especially during quieter times, though busy Suhoor hours can bring long waits and occasional order mistakes, signaling staffing and kitchen coordination issues. Menu variety is a strong point with many items such as benedicts, pancakes, and fusion plates receiving positive notes, while some winter menu items are seen as overpriced or not accurately represented and a few dishes do not fully meet expectations. Overall the reviews suggest a solid brunch option to return to for halal options and a lively ambiance, with the best results when timing and crowds are managed.View restaurant profile
