Review Summary

Ben & Florentine is widely recognized as a popular downtown destination for breakfast and brunch, frequently praised for its generous portions, fresh ingredients, and varied menu options. While a vast majority of patrons highlight the exceptional, friendly, and hardworking nature of the service staff, some visitors have noted that the restaurant can become quite crowded, leading to potential wait times or an occasionally rushed atmosphere. Most guests appreciate the overall value and consistent quality of the food, particularly the egg benedicts, pancakes, and creative additions like churros, though experiences regarding service speed and dining pace can occasionally fluctuate depending on how busy the venue is.

The food was absolutely delicious, hot, fresh, & wonderful! Laurence was fantastic, taking care of everything perfectly. She even made sure our coffees were filled to the rim. Service was top-notch!

Le resto Ben & Florentine, classique de la chaîne : on sait à quoi s'attendre, sans surprise particulière. Ici, l'accueil & le service font la différence. Notre serveuse était souriante, rapide, attentive & vraiment professionnelle. Grâce à elle, l'expérience a été impeccable du début à la fin. Note : 5/5

Très bien seulement petit point sur le service, j'étais accompagner d'une personne anglophone/indien, & lors du service très bon service pour moi en français mais quand ça venais de servir en anglais, bare minimum… très disappointing

It's a good place for before work breakfast right in the middle of Montreal downtown. However, need to make time for it. It's in no means, a quick breakfast. The reason is due to its convenient location & its popularity. It gets crowded pretty fast & due to staffing shortage, the speed of service suffers. In addition, forget about driving the due to the scarcity of parking places in the neighbourhood.
