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.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I wouldn't have hesitated a bit. Tôt ou tard is one of the best places to enjoy a real tasty Omelette. Big portion, very tasty & flavorful. The "Mexicaine" with the avocado is very special. Try this place, you won't be disappointed.

Had chicken & pasta & it was delicious. Huge portions! Calamar was a bit too chewy but the breading & sauce were tasty. The homemade crème brulée was like a boxed pudding...not a real crème brulée except for the sugar topping which was nicely done.

The goat cheese hamburger was the best I've had in recent memory, I look forward to coming back & trying the rest of the menu. The atmosphere is very casual & relaxed, allowing me to finish reading work emails in peace before the surprise of a truly enjoyable & memorable meal.

I have to add this place to my favorite restaurant in Montreal. First, it is close to downtown downtown however it quite easy to find a parking lot. Second, delicious & great quality of food. The portion is huge. I would like to say that it is cozy, nice & super affordable. Will be back to try different dishes. 🍔🥗🍝🦪🥂🍸

The service was great & so was the food! It was also very well priced for the quality they have. Seriously this is one of these hidden gems for me. Next time I'll have pictures.

De passage à Montréal, nous avons dîné au bistro "Tôt ou tard". Le jarret d'agneau aux pruneaux était délicieux, fondant & goûteux. Les légumes très bien cuits, & les frites délicieuses. De même, la salade grecque était très fraîche & savoureuse. Le tout très généreux avec de larges portions. Le rapport qualite prix est très bon. Je recommande à 100% ! Bravo !

Larger servings than most restaurants in Montreal. I had the mussels in wine, they were so good that I could have ordered a 2nd plate only to abstain because I wanted to eat a dessert. They were accompanied by french fries. They serve breakfast daily until 3 pm which is a high-five imo. Weekends has lineups for breakfast & brunch. Situated at the end of Cherrier street across from Lafontaine Park & near Notre-Dame hospital (5 minute walk) - which is why I chose this resto. A Very clean, spacious restaurant, the waitress was very attentive & the ambiance was very good.

Good food & nice interior. Sangria was good as well. Felt a bit uneasy after seafood pasta though...

Shared a breakfast date here with my partner while staying in the city. We adored our delicious breakfast. Even in the rain on the patio. They brought out some umbrellas for the tables. Would recommend for breakfast or brunch if staying nearby.

Nice & cozy bistro with affordable food! We ordered penne Romanoff but there was nothing special about it. Honestly I wish we ordered something different cause everyone else seemed really happy with their food.. But in our case it wasn't worth waiting for about half an hour.

Accueil & service excellents. Le plat était vraiment très bon & copieux, mais pas fan de la sauce des pâtes. Très bon moment. (Mai 2024)
