Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Bistro Tôt ou Tard as a reliable, budget friendly spot with generous portions and a warm, welcoming vibe, especially for brunch, where omelettes, eggs Benedict, crepes and moules frites are frequently praised and portions can be large for the price. The location near Parc Lafontaine on the Plateau Mont-Royal is noted as convenient and the atmosphere is described as cozy, bright, and friendly with attentive service even when busy. The menu is varied and largely well received, with many saying the quality is high and ingredients feel fresh, though a few notes mention service lapses during peak times, slow coffee refills, or occasional disconnect between online menus and in restaurant pricing. Value is a common theme, with affordable prices, generous plates, and good overall quality, and guests often recommend coming early or avoiding peak weekend hours to beat the lines. The terrace is considered pleasant when weather allows, and the overall experience is described as reliable and satisfying for groups, family brunches, or casual dinners.

I've traveled across 3 continents & I yet have to find better brunch than this gem. We've traveled from Ireland & spent 30 hours on a plane, bus & metro, completely famished & not fresh at all. We must have looked (& smelled) like hobos but the extremely nice waitress still let us sit down at a lovely outside terrace & we've been served divine brunch that quite literally saved our lives. A year later, we still tell all our friends about this magical place. Thank you for not turning us away & giving us a perfect story & a true Canadian welcome.

La valeur sûre si vous voulez bruncher! Le rapport qualité prix est inégalable.
Mention spéciale pour leurs moules frites excellentes.

Une belle découverte: des plats copieux à petits prix, c'est rare & ça fait plaisir! Nous avons pris un petit déjeuner, une poutine déjeuner & deux smoothies, c'était très bon. J'aurais aimé que mes patates soient un peu plus croustillantes, mais sinon tout était correct. Nous reviendrons pour un petit déjeuner ou un brunch!

This was our second time eating here & it was incredible, just like last time. The food is fresh & delicious. We waited about twenty minutes to be seated, which was expected because the dining room was full. The staff gave excellent & attentive service even though it was super busy. To top it all off, the prices are excellent for the quality & amount of food we got. This has got to be one of the best brunch places in Montréal!!

Nous avions brunché à cette place un week-end il y a quelques mois & avions adoré! Il y avait de la queue, car l'endroit semblait populaire mais cela en valait la peine. Les portions était grandes & la nourriture succulente.😊

Went to Bistro Tôt ou Tard with friends & really enjoyed it. We ordered pizza, spaghetti, & beer - everything was tasty & well prepared. The atmosphere was relaxed & friendly, & prices were reasonable. I haven't tried their brunch yet, but I've heard great things about it. Definitely a nice spot to come back to!

The best brunch in Montreal! The service is excellent, & the restaurant is located right next to Parc La Fontaine, so you can enjoy a beautiful view while you eat.

J'y suis allé pour un brunch un samedi, il y a avait de la place. Il y a pas mal de choix sur le menu. Les plats sont bon, pour ma part je trouve qu'il manquait un peut d'avocat dans mon plat. La cuisson des oeufs étaient bien. Les fruits étaient frais. La serveuse était sympathique.

J'y suis allée pour bruncher, en famille. Très belle place, aéré, bien décoré. J'ai été agréablement surprise pas leur vaste menu, original & élaboré, qui nous sort des « deux oeufs tournés, bacon » habituels. Il y en avait vraiment pour tous les goûts. La qualité & les saveurs étaient au rendez-vous. J'ai personnellement pris la crêpe al forno aux fruits de mer… un régal ! Beaucoup de fruits de mer (ce qui est généralement rare 😅) & une sauce béchamel maison succulente ! & les prix sont plus que raisonnables !! Seul bémol, le service, qui n'était absolument pas à la hauteur du déjeuner. Pour un lundi midi, où l'achalandage était loin d'être à son comble, nous n'avons eu droit à ni plus de café, ni un « tout va bien ici ? » & pour avoir la facture nous avons presque dû courir après le serveur dont l'air désinvolte était flagrant. Bref, ce service n'affecte en rien ma note de 5 étoiles, car c'est peut être simplement circonstanciel. Je vous recommande, malgré ce petit accros, d'aller vous délecter au Bistro Tôt ou Tard ;)

A friend recommended I go here on my last day in Montreal & I certainly wasn't expecting what I found here. The food was absolutely incredible, the staff could teach other restaurants how to be efficient; they are like a well oiled machine. If there's a line up, they're so efficient you won't have to wait long as they turn tables over so quickly. As mentioned the food was incredible & the portion was HUGE & for the price I felt like I was stealing from the restaurant. I have had many good brunches but this one absolutely tops all of them .
I will be back here on my next visit to Montreal, MERCI BEAUCOUP!!!!

My favorite brunch spot in Montreal! Been coming here for years & I enjoy it every time. Service is impeccable, both speed & respect, great portions of food & incredibly delicious, & the overall vibe is nice. There's a line for a reason!

Toujours très bien accueilli au bistrot tôt ou tard ! Le plaisir de bruncher toute la journée avec café filtre à volonté 😍 les prix sont corrects au vu de la quantité & de la qualité! Victime de leur succès il se peut qu'il y ait de l'attente le Samedi & Dimanche entre 10h & 13h

Bel endroit sympa pour bruncher entre amis. Ambiance chaleureuse, pas trop cacophonique, le personnel est ultra sympathique, aux petits soins de leurs clients. Le menu donne l'eau à la bouche, les plats choisis sont savoureux, à portion généreuse. À proximité du parc Lafontaine, on peut admirer la vue de la nature, tout en se détectant des plats servis. Je recommande ce bel endroit!

This place had the best Oreo milkshake I've had in a while. It was creamy, slightly milky, not too sweet, & the Oreo taste was subtle but present enough to add that distinct cookie flavour.

For the brunch itself got the avocado eggs Benedict & they were really good. Egg was cooked well, the cheese melted as I ate, the bacon was crispy, fresh avocado & I love that it is on a baguette. The plate is really big as well so come here on an empty stomach.

The service is fast & friendly & there's tons of seating but I would still recommend showing up a bit early because this place does get very busy.
