Très belle expérience ! Le service était excellent, le personnel très accueillant & attentionné. On se sent tout de suite à l'aise dès l'arrivée. La nourriture était délicieuse, bien présentée & pleine de saveurs. Je recommande vivement cet endroit & j'y retournerai avec plaisir !
Amazing food for a great value! The presentation is absolutely beautiful. We loved our food. The burger was a bit salty for me & a bit difficult to eat, but it was delicious nonetheless. The truffle fries are to die for! Also, the shakshuka was perfection. The lattes & cocktails are truly one of the main reasons to visit as they are delicious & beautiful to look at! We had reservations so there was no wait. Service was prompt & friendly & the atmosphere was inviting & nicely decorated. I would definitely recommend & return.
Incroyable, tout simplement le brunch le plus délicieux de Montréal.
N'oubliez pas de prendre un pain perdu en dessert pour deux personnes, il est incroyable 🤩
L'attente pour les plats est un peu plus longue que dans un restaurant de brunch classique, mais qu'es que ça vaut le coup !
Note: make a reservation or expect to wait a while for brunch!
I ordered & loved:
- Bueno latte with oat milk was divine (crunchy nutella rim was a treat)
- Sausage Shakshuka with hummus & pita with a few olives (huge portion for one, every bite was unique & delectable; hummus was a bit thin compared to store-bought)
- Pain Perdu (I was already stuffed at this point but it was worth risking a stomach ache; great textural experience (crisp exterior & soft interior).

Actually insane lives up to the hype super flavourful & obviously a beautiful plate my only warning would be that yes the lattes are as sweet as they look which was perfect for me
The tiramisu latte is OMG so good !!!! But I was a bit disappointed for the tartiflette it was meh not a lot of flavor. The place is nice & the service is great. I will go back for sure to try something else
J'ai adoré mon expérience chez Antipode. Service impeccable (Ludo est génial comme serveur & mon latté (P'tit beurre) était le meilleur que j'ai bu de ma vie. J'ai aussi bien aimé le'Dorian Grey', un excellent cocktail pour accompagner le déjeuner.
Pour manger, je recommande le croque tartiflette. Excellent.
Petit conseil si vous voulez pas attendre, allez-y en pleine tempête de verglas lol. La nourriture est fantastique & les serveurs sont très aimable. Si vous souhaitez essayer leurs lattes ils sont vraiment meilleur chaud que froid

Une incroyable surprise! On est venu pour les latte & on est sorti epoustouffle par la qualite des plats! Nous etions 8 & il n'y a pas 1 plat qui nous a laisse indifferent! Que ce soit le gauffre & poulet, les oeufs beurre noisette, la chakchouka, le croque madame ou le burger tout fut delicieux! & les fameux latte ne nous ont pas non plus decus! & que dire du service… une equipe chaleureuse, bienveillante!!!! Malheureusement, les portions etaient tellement genereuses qu'on n'a malheureusement pas eu de place pour deguster les options sucrees! Mais ca nous donne une belle excuse pour y retourner rapidement!!!!! Un vrai coup de coeur pour toute ma famille!
L'excellence du brunch! On a commencé par un surprenant ube latte d'une délicate couleur mauve, suivi d'oeufs beurre noisette haut en saveurs. Il était tellement bien servi qu'on n'a pu le terminer.
Had an amazing experience at Antipodes for a birthday brunch! The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, making it feel like home. The service was top-notch, attentive & friendly throughout. We had a minor issue with one of the plates, but the owner handled it with such grace & kindness, which truly made a difference. To top it off, when it was time for the cake, the other customers joined in & we all sang together. Such a memorable experience. Highly recommend this spot for great food & exceptional service!
Best French toast & Pumpkin Spice Latte I ever had, & I've had lots in the last 45 years!! The Croq Madame is super delicious! Definitely going again & again!! Excellent service as well.
J'y ai été aujourd'hui 22/11/25, l'attente en valait la peine. & une mention spéciale pour le Monsieur qui gérait la fil d'attente dehors , il était très courtois , respectueux & toujours de bonne humeur. Merci à tous le personnel pour votre excellent service. 🙏❤?
I first went to the one on Laurier & it was already very good so I had to try the new location. It did not disappoint, very beautiful & cozy decor (very warm & earthy). The food & lattes were delicious. The is a lineup so arrive before 10:30 (max 11) otherwise you will probably wait outside. But it's worth it! The first time I had the eggs Benedict with ham & the second time I had the chackchoukas merguez with the latte speculos & espresso martini. Highly recommend, my top 3 brunch spots on Montreal!
