La responsable, Marie-Pier Bellefeuille, a été extrêmement méprisante envers ma femme. Je comprends maintenant pourquoi ils engagent une nouvelle serveuse toutes les deux semaines.

Great spot to grab breakfast at a reasonable price. They have an early bird time where you can save around $4.00 on breakfast.

We each had the classic 2 egg breakfast that came with 2 eggs, choice of meat, pan fries, toast & apple sauce.

The servers were friendly, & came back for drink refills more than once.

The food was great..

I would eat here again!

I went there not too long ago to have a nice brunch & I got welcomed warmly by the host identified as Haley & a waitress who served me, Laurence. The food was great overall, service from the staff were great, but my main only concern & issue is the manager, Marie. From the distance, we could hear her yelling at her team with frustration & it disturb my peace & my girlfriend's. For instance, one of the runner accidentally dropped a glass or a mug & we could hear her yelling & yelling for over 5 minutes, FOR A SINGLE BROKEN MUG!! I tried to communicate with her regarding this matter but she completely ignored me & gave us a cold shoulder. I don't know how she can be the manager with those poor skills... Overall, it was great, but the manager is the main concern in this review. I'm not happy with how my experience turned into a bad one.

I am a DoorDash driver who picked up orders from Ben & Florentine Downtown on July 10. While waiting in the designated area near the corner for my orders, the manager (who identified herself as Marie) aggressively told me I was in the way & demanded I move to the stairs. I explained the stairs felt unsafe, but she continued raising her voice & insisted.
I tried to de-escalate by saying I didn't want to argue & waited quietly. Instead, she approached a nearby table of customers & began discussing me negatively, including comments about my helmet, which led to them joining in & making fun of me. This was highly unprofessional & made me feel harassed & unsafe as a small female delivery worker. I was visibly shaking from the stress.
After getting my insulated bag & returning, I asked for her name. She apologized repeatedly once I was standing there upset. I responded that restaurant work is stressful but I just wanted to do my job peacefully.
I also witnessed her speaking very rudely to one of her own employees earlier. As a delivery driver relying on these pickups, this experience was disappointing & made me concerned about returning. Management should ensure professional treatment of all staff & third-party workers.

Bonjour, je suis une personne qui est pas du coin & j'étais en vacances pour ma fête & les festivals mais mon déjeuner au ben & florentine était incroyable pour la nourriture mais surtout pour ma serveuse Laurence. C'est sur que c'est une place à aller au centre-ville 🩷
