Review Summary

Antipode is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal for its visually stunning brunch plates and highly aesthetic specialty lattes, which are frequently described as delicious and flavorful. While many guests praise the unique, creative menu and the cozy, artistic atmosphere, experiences regarding service and value can be inconsistent. The restaurant is consistently busy, often resulting in long queues and occasional wait times for both tables and food. Although some patrons consider the pricing to be on the higher side or feel that aesthetics sometimes take precedence over culinary execution, many others find the generous portions and high-quality ingredients justify the visit, making it a popular, must-try spot for those seeking a memorable brunch experience.

The food is very bad, & the service is also very bad. I ordered dishes with cheese, & he must wait until all the dishes are ready before giving them to us. As a result, the taste is very hard & very salty. It's not worth the tip of up to 17% at all.

As someone who considers themselves a brunch expert, I feel comfortable giving a precise review of Antipode.

The food is good, with an interesting complexity of flavors. Their house hollandaise sauce is unlike anything I've had elsewhere - more aromatic & distinctive (even though some of my friends didn't love its appearance). The service is excellent, & the décor feels very authentic.

So what's the issue? The price. It stands out compared to other brunch spots offering similar quality. It feels even less accessible when you consider that the eggs Benedict do not come with potatoes or salad - you only get the eggs Benedict themselves, which is uncommon compared to most places.

Because of that, the value for money isn't great. On the day I went, the wait wasn't too bad - just a small group ahead of us.

I wouldn't go back, but I do recommend going once to try it.

The lattes & food were amazing!! Loved the lattes & both meals we got. It's quite a decent amount of food too! The server was maybe having a bad day because they weren't very friendly.

Le comportement du personnel en service est déplacé ! Visite du 21 janvier, les repas sont bons mais l'attitude du serveur est à revoir, la sollicitation de pourboires auprès des clients n'est pas appropriée, surtout la méthode & le ton employé par le serveur à ce propos (d'ailleurs c'est une des raisons de changement de la loi parce que beaucoup de québécois sont exaspérés de cela, il faut former votre personnel à réagir de façon appropriée).
Je recommandais cette adresse avant mais c'est terminé c'est beaucoup trop aléatoire niveau de qui & comment on est servis!

Il y a contournable & incontournable. L'Antipode rentre dans la seconde catégorie. Un brunch difficile à égaler. Généreux, gourmand, raffiné, stimulant, gratifiant, mémorable & vivifiant. Super. Vous pouvez y aller en toute confiance.
