Friendly staff, & very accommodating. Food was absolutely delicious! We had a party of 5 & were seated very quickly. I ordered the Apple Crepes combo, & ate every bit of it. People in my party ordered the crispy French toast with chocolate, & the pancakes. All said it was delicious! Highly recommend this restaurant if traveling to Montreal!

A friend recommended this as her fave breakfast place, & now I know why. I headed to Ben & Florentine for a big breakfast since I had a walking tour after & went for their egg benedict plus a side of bacon. I've had eggs benedict before & I would say that these were the best ones I ever had. Plus free coffee refills & fruit on the side made it such a great meal! So what made me go back a 2nd time in my trip when my flight was cancelled was the service. Huge shoutout to Marie! She was very friendly, remembered me & my order & always took the time to check on me even though she had other waiting tables. We even talked about the airline that even Canadians avoided flying with. Great food & amazing friendly service! I'm a huge fan & would recommend this plac e to anyone!

Très bon restaurant pour bruncher. Le personnel est très agréable & chaleureux (merci à Marie-Pier pour son accueil).

Les prix sont corrects voire en dessous de la moyenne & les portions copieuses. La nourriture est très bonne & le choix est varié !

Je recommande fortement !
Pensez à réserver !
