Review Summary

Beauty's Luncheonette is widely described as a classic, bustling Montreal diner with a nostalgic vibe and a standout breakfast and brunch lineup, including fluffy pancakes, bagels with lox, and generous portions that many feel are worth the price; while the crowd and lines reflect its popularity, several reviews also caution that prices are high and some dishes can underwhelm, with occasional service issues or rushed seating on busy mornings, but the overall sentiment remains that Beauty's is an institution worth visiting for a dependable, friendly experience.

Loved the smoked salmon here! Although it was a little bit of a wait in the cold, I don't regret it! The servers were really polite & the food came quickly. You could taste the freshness of the bagel WITH the salmon, it was the perfect balance. Onions also helped battle the tomatoes but it all made for the best breakfast. I would love to go back when there isn't a line out of the doo

Fabulous breakfast place with storied history. Saw Donald Sutherland & Michel Tremblay in earlier visits. Bit of a lineup to get in but well worth it. All day breakfast with freshly squeezed OJ, perfect home fries & bagel still great. Only quibble was my bagel was cold. After that, take a walk down Mont Royale for a perfect morning.

Pancakes are worth going for The rest of my breakfast was good so no complaints on food but is it worth an hour wait outside in the cold. Also, given the long line once you sitdown they are trying to turn the table so you can wait outside longer than eating. If you only go with two people, makes it harder to sitdown quicker given the booths turn over faster.

Really tricky place. Absolutely nothing wrong with the food. Just severely overpriced. If your just looking for pretty standard & alright breakfast, just go somewhere else & pay a basic price for very basic food.

I had picked up my daughter & friends at the Berri bus station one day at 7am & figured it would be nice to treat them so we all went to Beauty's, known as the famed breakfast institution where one might rub elbows with movie stars working on location.

I ordered only 1 coffee. The 3 girls ordered breakfast with all the trimmings. I had to go across the street & get some cash because they would not take any credit cards (maybe it's changed today). The final bill came to about $70 tip included.

I find this exorbitant & was sorry it was too early in the morning because I would have gladly taken them to the Ritz known for their Eggs Benedict.

Service was so-so.

Too bad many restaurateurs gain acceptance & fame & then only rely on their reputation thereafter.
