Copoli

Opens Tomorrow at 7 am

Westmount Downtown

Pizza Sandwiches Burgers Comfort Food Breakfast

Review Summary

Copoli is described as a casual, homey spot where handmade bread, house sauces, and a distinctive burger create a comforting, flavorful experience, with fries that are praised as fresh and well seasoned and a breakfast menu that satisfies early in the day. The open kitchen and friendly, attentive service contribute to a welcoming neighborhood vibe, and the place is often noted for good value and a family friendly atmosphere. The burger is repeatedly highlighted for its bread and overall flavor, with some guests opting for a salad in place of fries and enjoying a special dressing; a few visits, however, mention that the patty can be thinner, with less toppings, and that prices have risen. Hygiene concerns are raised in at least one account about cooking staff handling food with bare hands and the open kitchen causing clothes to pick up an oily smell. Occasional mentions of poutine and other casual options appear, but the common thread is a place many patrons return to for quick, tasty meals in a comfortable, unpretentious setting.View restaurant profile
