Review Summary

Barley - Bar à Céréales is repeatedly praised for a flavorful, imaginative brunch menu and a playful cereals concept, with standouts like matcha pancakes, halloumi plates, Turkish eggs, avocado toast, and a fried chicken waffle that many find especially tasty; drinks are generally good but some matcha lattes arrive cold and service can be slow or imperfect with occasional missed or mixed orders, though staff are described as friendly and attentive; the ambience is cozy and stylish, yet the space can be very loud during peak hours and reservations are often recommended; portions range from generous to moderately sized and prices can feel high for the value, though freshness and balance across dishes are commonly noted; overall the reviews portray a popular brunch spot in Montreal that delivers standout flavors and a memorable experience, even as some visits note menu changes, longer waits, and variability in consistency.

I had the pleasure of dining at this resturant, & it was nothing short of incredible! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm & inviting, with friendly staff, especially our waitress Maryann who made me feel right at home.

The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, & made with the freshest ingredients. Whether it was the perfectly cooked [Croissant sandwich] or the indulgent dessert, every bite was a delight.
If you're looking for a place that delivers exceptional food, great service, & a memorable experience, look no further. I'll definitely be coming back! Thanks again to Maryann

EDIT 2025; La qualité a beaucoup baissé, clairement de meilleures options à proximité.

Beau café avec leur spécial avec céréales que je recommande fortement. La nourriture est excellente quoiqu'un peu cher, mais ça vaut la peine. Nous avons très bien mangé les plusieurs visites que nous sommes allés.

Decent brunch place in Montreal! They have a nice big private room you can reserve if you are a big group of people/friends! Food wise it's alright, small menu, limited selection, nothing too fancy but it's tasty. They have a nice selection of coffee drinks!

Ambiance sympathique & le staff est très aimable. Si vous voulez un brunch hors du commun, inspiré de cuisine libanaise/syrienne, c'est le bon endroit!

Bonne nourriture, mais très très longue attente pour recevoir les plats (+ de 40 min)
Par contre je souligne la sympathie & amabilité des serveurs.

Looooove the labne toast, the pomegranate molasses gives it the perfect acidity & taste ‍ the waffles+chicken was also amazing! The service took some time but it's understandable, it's crowded. Will definitely come back

What a fantastic experience at Barley Bar! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel right at home. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, & made sure we had everything we needed. The food was absolutely delicious-creative, flavorful, & beautifully presented. Each dish was executed perfectly, & you could tell the chefs put a lot of thought into the menu. The service was top-notch as well. Our server was knowledgeable, efficient, & made great recommendations, ensuring we had an enjoyable & seamless dining experience from start to finish. Highly recommend Barley Bar for anyone looking for excellent food, great service, & a welcoming atmosphere. Can't wait to return!

Menu intéressant pour le petit dej & le brunch. Influences méditerranéenne (Liban surtout). Nourriture ok. Prix trop élevés pour ce que c'est. Ambiance correct, sans plus. Recommend, pour un essai.

We walked in with birthday balloons, & right off the bat, Youssef was so accommodating - suggesting where we can put them for the birthday girl. We felt right at ease, with his kindness & banter. Once the birthday girl arrived, he offered her a birthday drink. It was very sweet & thoughtful. We ordered our food & drinks & everything was absolutely amazing. I had the fried chicken waffles, while the rest had the fried halloumi dish & the avocado toast. The coffee was also so delicious. Afterwards, Youssef brought over a taste of their caramel-hazel nut pancakes, & the matcha pancakes. It was such a wonderful treat. It was so wonderful feeling their hospitality & their attention to detail, & Youssef just wanted us to have a great time. He also gave us a tour of their speakeasy - we can't wait to come back!! We had the best experience, highly recommend!!

Halloumi plate was great! Matcha pancakes are a bit salty, & the taste of matcha is really subtle, but it isn't too sweet, which is good. The portion for the pancakes is really big, it gets a bit boring so in my opinion it is best shared. Chai latte has ginger, which feels great to have in winter. It's sprinkled with cinnamon on top. We reserved for 3 people at 9:45am on a cold December 23rd, Monday, but there was no need to.
