After visiting more than 50 brunch spots in Montreal, I can confidently say this was the worst service I've ever experienced.
Our waiter was extremely rude during our first interactions. Toward the end, he seemed to be in a slightly better mood & became somewhat friendlier, but the overall experience had already been ruined. Honestly, I don't even know why I left a tip - probably just out of habit.
The water took a long time to arrive. When I wanted to order coffee, I tried making eye contact with the waiter for quite a while. Other tables around us also seemed frustrated with the slow service. Without me asking anything, he abruptly said,'You're waiting for your friend to arrive before ordering, right?' I stared at him for a few seconds, confused, & said I just wanted to order coffee.
From the beginning, he clearly didn't want to serve our table. At first, I even thought it might be because we're not locals, especially since the table next to us was treated much more warmly. Everything we ordered felt like we were asking him for a huge favor.
When he brought the coffee cups, he placed them down harshly on the table, clearly showing his bad mood.
The food itself is good - a well-prepared, fairly priced traditional brunch. The atmosphere is okay, a bit worn over time but nothing unpleasant.
That said, I wouldn't return to this Allô! Mon Coco location, as I wouldn't want to risk being served by this waiter again.

Had a amazing breakfast at Allô mon Coco at St. Catherine East, steps away from the ChinaTown. We ordered Crêpe filled with old-fashioned ham,bacon, sausage & cheddar cheese omelet - Picture attached
They provided maple syrup twice to put over Crêpe. The breakfast was amazing, very heavy & yummy. We had to wait for 15-20 mins after they took the order, which is worth it. Fries 🍟 were well cooked & crispy, along with coffee ☕?
The location is well maintained, staffs were courteous.
Merci beaucoup
A special shout to JAWAD our server! On point, friendly attentive knowledgeable & always a step ahead determining our needs (example xtra napkins, condiments, top of coffee). First time at this restaurant! Highly recommend ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐? Thank you Jawad & Allo mon Coco! Ann Marie from Ottawa
I ordered the Sunshine with the meat choice of creton. It was very good. The crepe was also nice. I really liked the decoration with the hanging whisks.
Usually coffee in breakfast restaurants is not good, but I have no complain about the coffee here. It was acceptable.
I'll definitely go again for breakfast next time when I'm in Montreal.
Our waitress was super friendly, kind & accommodating. The food, large portions & very tasty. Yes indeed, do opt for the Allo Mon Coco potatoes. Coffee was diner decent.

Restaurant looked good. Food was ok. My eggs were cold. No syrup for my pancake. We got our stuff & that's it, no more service. Asked for more water & coffee refills when food was delivered to our table. Never saw our waitress again. Waited 20mins after eating for the bill, ended up standing near the counter where you are waiting to be seated. Blonde waitress asked if everything was ok. She apologized repeatedly, wish she was our waitress but she wasn't. After another 5mins our waitress finally gave us the bill. Not impressed, won't be back
It's changed a lot since the pandemic! Quality wise & service! It took forever last time to get coffee & water & the bill... Also no more free filtered coffee included when it literally costs pennies to make...
Diner style atmosphere but much more pleasant & welcoming!
Extensive menu & huge portions of food. Was hard to choose as I really liked the look of everything their menu offered.
We chose 2 dishes to share & struggled to finish them.
Smoothies looked delicious as i saw others have them but i chose a moccachino bowl, Coffee in a bowl literally, & Delicious too!
We ended up eating Copenhagen (eggs benedict with salmon) mash with cheese on the side & a poutine variation with potatoes, curd cheese, regular cheese, scambled eggs & sausage. Good start to the day, defo not overpriced as you get a lot for your money.
If you're a small eater, then its best to share. The staff were excellent & service was super quick.
Busy brunch & breakfast spot. The coffee was burnt & eggs Benedict were lacking freshness, the hollandaisesauce was off. There's always a lineup so be prepared to wait, especially on weekends.

I had known about the Allo Mon Coco chain since 2022, but this was the first time I went to this unit. I found the same quality of food, but not the same quality & speed in service. The lack of speed was felt when the order was taken, especially when the restaurant entered peak hours, that is, between 11 am & 12 pm. To have the coffee refill order fulfilled, we had to speak to 4 different attendants. It was clear that the number of employees could not handle the service at this time, since they needed to welcome & accommodate the clients, take the order & do other tasks. I see this not as the fault of the employees who work hard, but rather as a lack of investment by the owner who shows with this attitude that he is more concerned with profit than the proper functioning of the establishment & its customers.
Tip: arrive before 11 am, or there will be no place to sit.
Je connais Allo Mon Coco depuis 2022, mais c'était ma première fois dans cette unité. J'ai retrouvé la même qualité de nourriture, mais pas la même qualité ni la même rapidité de service. Le manque d'agilité se faisait sentir dès la passation des commandes, notamment aux heures de pointe, entre 11h & midi. Pour obtenir notre café, nous avons dû parler à quatre serveurs différents. Il était clair que le nombre d'employés n'était pas suffisant pour assurer le service à ce moment-là, car ils devaient accueillir & servir les clients, prendre les commandes & effectuer d'autres tâches. Je ne vois pas cela comme la faute des employés qui travaillent dur, mais plutôt comme un manque d'investissement de la part du propriétaire, qui démontre avec cette attitude qu'il est plus préoccupé par le profit que par le bon fonctionnement de l'établissement & de ses clients.
Conseil : Arrivez avant 11h, sinon il n'y aura plus de places.
Tons of seating so there was no wait. Staff was extremely friendly & bilingual so no issues there. The portions are HUGE so come hungry. The eggs Benedict were perfect with runny yokes. Coffee was topped off constantly. Great place for the price.
Excellent service. The food is delicious & portions are big for the price. The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend! Little update: i see so many complains about the coffee not being free. Allo mon coco is not the only place to charge for coffee. In Toronto, some places charge 3$ for coffee, so 1$ is nothing!
Disappointed by the food & service. We ordered two cups of coffee, crepe of allo Mon coco & cheese crepe. Both were super dry & not flavorful. The waitress did not come to check on us nor refill our coffee until when we asked for the check.
This was not my first experience (my previous experience was in another branch), everything was cold, from coffee to ordering food. There were four of us: Avocado with sweet cheese (cold), Smoky meat (cold). Two orders of Choco Coco Deluxe, eggs & bacon were cold, but the crepe was good. We were very disappointed & did not enjoy our brunch & left with a bad feeling!
Not going back, I was anticipating & excited to try their breakfast poutine. I ordered the Quebec poutine with porc effilochée...it was not good. The sauce look old pasty & not fresh. It was hard to distinguish the flavours, with the sauce in the first place , the porc & the caramelize onions along side the mushrooms.... Presentation out of 5 was more like 1. L'Oeufrier's poutine way better & looks fresher. Very disappointing to pay the price. We were three & there were two other tables in the whole restaurant & coffee took long to be served. I ate my poutine like a big boy....but that is the last time. Honest review from someone who rarely eats breakfast in a restaurant. Next time I'll make my own poutine from home.
I went with my daughter & my wife. The food was fantastic! Unfortunately, the staff treated us poorly because I wanted to just split 2 meals between an 11 year old & my wife as their portion size is bigger than our stomachs could handle. We ordered 2 Benedict meals with an extra plate. Needless to say, they brought a massive plate compared to what the dishes came out on. Not sure if that was mocking the situation but it felt like it. Another random waitress, which was not ours, decided to ask me if I am missing an order. I had to pay 6$ for that empty plate as well as a 1$ fee for a box for my daughter's food she could not finish. After all that I still payed around 90$, (I still tipped 20% because that's what you do), for 2 Benedict meals, a few coffee, & a drink or my daughter. This was an experience that made us feel like we were beneath them. Food was delicious though.
