Loved the vibrant atmosphere & the fantastic, attentive service. Unfortunately, the kitchen was way too heavy?handed with the salt. Both of our dishes were overly salty, & we couldn't finish them.

The coffee was the only highlight of our brunch experience. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the hype we had seen on Instagram. We ordered four different dishes from the brunch menu, hoping for a variety of flavors, but all of them fell flat on the palate. Most dishes also leaned a bit too heavily on the salty side, which further affected the overall enjoyment of the meal. While the presentation was appealing, the taste simply didn't match the expectations.

Antipode is one of those brunch spots that always feels like a treat. From comforting classics to more creative plates, & sweet brunch dishes that are both flavorful & beautifully presented 🥞🍳

Their specialty alcoholic & nonalcoholic are definitely worth trying, unique flavors that make the experience even more special 🍸☕

Very chic experience for the price. So many brunch choices. The ideal restaurant if you want to leave the routine & try new dishes. I recommend the saumon & guacamole one.

If you enjoy paying fine-dining prices for a plate of salt, this is the place for you. There was zero nuance in any of the dishes-just a flat, overpowering saltiness that ruined the entire meal. No dish had a'signature' or standout flavor. You're paying for the decor, because the kitchen certainly isn't delivering. A massive waste of money.

This place was good, but I guess my expectations were through the roof given how popular it is & those expectations weren't really met. Again, the food was good, but nothing to fall off my chair. Maybe I was expecting too much. The service was really good though & the place is cute! I'd go back & try different dishes, to see if there is anything that blows me away.

This location takes reservations, making it not only delightful but also effortlessly accessible-a huge plus!

The vibrant ambiance & beautiful decor wowed us from the get-go. We began with the chakchouka merguez, a hearty & satisfying dish that stood beautifully on its own.
Next, we were captivated by the colourful waffle topped with succulent chicken. It was as visually stunning as it was delicious, with a very balanced touch of spice.

To drink, a remarkable tiramisu latte, basically a liquid dessert. The layers of coffee & cream were artfully blended in a decadently rich creation.
We also had the Ube latte, which was every bit as good as we expected it to be.
For dessert, the Yuzu Pain Perdu-an unforgettable creation that dazzled us with its intricate flavors. The combination of sweet & tangy yuzu was wonderful.

Every aspect of our brunch was a reminder of why we cherish this restaurant. With its creative dishes, decadent lattes, & irresistible desserts
