Antipode is described as a highly popular, visually striking brunch spot in Montreal with generous portions, creative flavor combinations, and standout drinks like a pistachio latte that many call a must try. The place is frequently crowded, especially on weekends, which leads to long lines and waiting times, though service is often praised as attentive when seated. The menu covers a wide range from shakshouka and multiple takes on eggs benedict to croquettes d'aubergine, croque madame, chicken and waffles, and indulgent desserts like pain perdu and yuzu French toast, with plates praised for presentation and many noting bold, sometimes salty or sweet flavors and some items considered overpriced for the portion. Beverages are repeatedly highlighted as a highlight, with pistachio and tiramisu lattes noted for aesthetics and flavor, and the restaurant is appreciated by halal diners. The ambiance is described as cozy, rustic chic and very instagrammable, but the space can feel cramped and noisy during peak hours; lines can form even on quieter days, though many say the wait is worth it. Overall, reviews position Antipode as a top or must visit brunch destination in Montreal, valued for its creative culinary approach and striking drinks, while acknowledging occasional inconsistencies in service or value and the high price point.

After seeing many posts from people, I've decided to try this place. It's a small cafe/breakfast place but the decor was quite cute. I ordered a pistachio latte which looked really nice & tasted quite good. I also ordered a mushroom & truffle Eggs Benedict. The truffle sauce was delicious (I LOVE truffles), & the plate looked very appetizing! I understand why so many people went to try this place! I'd like to go back & try their other menu items some day. So far so good!

I arrived 10 minutes before opening & managed to skip the line (there were already about 15-20 people ahead of me). The mushroom & truffle eggs benedict was delicious! Loved their homemade sauce & bread. The pistachio latte on the other hand was only okay, it looked prettier than it tasted. My friend enjoyed her regular coffee though. We were also lucky we got our food quickly but it seemed like everyone else waited a really long time. Many plates were ready & sitting on the countertop but wasn't being served.

Arrived at around 11am on a Sunday & waited 1h before getting seated. This restaurant is very popular for brunch so get ready to wait if coming on the weekends as they don't take reservations. While waiting in line, they handed out some chocolatines which was quite considerate! As for the food, the pistachio latte & the smoked salmon eggs Benedict were my favourite. The croque madame & merguez shakshuka were also well executed. I enjoyed the food & experience here but wouldn't come again & wait to get a seat.

C'est une super place à brunch de Montréal. Le menu est très élaborés, cocktails (Dorain Gray 🤩) & cafés (Pistachio 😋) sont débiles & l'ambiance & service super sympa. Vous ne serez vraiment pas déçus!!

I can see why this place is so popular - I came here with a few friends for brunch. Even before the place opened, there was quite a bit of a queue, so I recommend coming early to get a table since the restaurant is not extremely large.

Best pistachio latte I've had in my life. Came here for a quick brunch with a friend, & ordered the mushroom eggs Benedict with a latte. Everything was exquisite! From the decor to the service to the food. Will definitely be coming back! 👌🏼

You must try this place!!! Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures but this place offers an amazing experience, outstanding service & great food! We tried Shakshouka which was great! Their salmon œuf bending was one of the best I’ve ever had! The pistachio coffee looked aesthetic but did not taste good. You’d love this brunch spot if you want to create some social media/ culinarily content while enjoying good food!
