“Three guys from the restaurant industry, sharing the same passion, met in a restaurant in Melbourne and a few years later decided to open their own place on the other side of the world: Montreal.”
This spot is the result of three visions combined, bringing together over 30 years of experience in the field. Through our menu and our restaurant, we want to offer you something unique. With our originality, we aim to contribute to Montreal’s vibrant dining scene.

Le chef tente une exploration de saveurs qui selon moi est trop audacieuse & ettoufe les saveurs naturel des ingrédients utilisés. Jaurais préféré moins de melange de sauces & d'épices. Gochujang, curcuma & Kimchi, trop de saveurs mélangés on y perd la gauffre & le poulet.

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. 🙏❤?
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.
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!

Une adresse parfaite pour savourer un brunch. Les portions sont vraiment généreuses, & les plats, en plus d'être délicieux, sont très bien décorés lorsqu'ils arrivent à la table.
Cela faisait longtemps que je n avais pas mangé un aussi bon brunch à MTL
Les plats sont très copieux, gourmands, & la déco est canon!
Mention spéciale pour le pain perdu & le ube, j'ai adoré !
Bravo Ludo , je reviens vite pour tester le reste de la carte car on a clairement envie de tout prendre !
Chez Antipode, quel doux épisode,
Un brunch parfait, sans la moindre fraude,
Des saveurs en danse, fines & équilibrées,
Chaque assiette un tableau, si bien orchestrée.
Les couleurs s'épousent, le goût fait écho,
A chaque bouchée, c'est un vrai crescendo.
Visuellement superbe, un festin pour les yeux,
& pour les papilles, un plaisir délicieux
Justine, au service, d'une grâce adorable,
Sourire sincère, attention remarquable.
Ses conseils avisés, discrets, bien choisis,
Ont sublimé ce moment d'appétit & d'envie.
Antipode vraiment je reviendrai sans doute.
Car ton brunch enchante & met le coeur en route.
Leurs cafés signature UN DÉLICE, frite à la truffe vraiment bon! Par contre, jeune maman avec poussette & jeune bébé attention accessibilité très difficile & pas de table à langer dans les salles de bain!! Pas hygiénique de changer une couche sur un bout de comptoir! Au moins le staff reconnait la lacune
