Went in for brunch & inside was nice but outside of that I wouldn't have much good to say. My wife & I ordered coffee & our food, our drinks came right away but the food took about 40 minutes to come out. Ordered eggs Benedict & a simple "2 eggs any style" & everything was overcooked & dry. We figured that because we were staying at the hotel that we were getting served last before the guests but it wasn't even that busy so I don't understand why it took so long. Maybe just a bad day for them, & I completely understand that but I wouldn't recommend going there for brunch. Plenty of other amazing places that won't disappoint.

It was a fine place to grab some breakfast. I had the eggs benedict & cappuccino. It was a pleasant breakfast in a setting you'd expect of an upscale hotel restaurant

The worst eggs benny on the planet. Who puts cheese & mustard on an untoasted English muffin? Terrible deli ham. Hollandaise nightmare. Almost threw up; however, lovely staff.

📍 Location: Brasseire 701, Old Montreal Ambiance & Atmosphere: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brasseire 701 strikes the perfect balance between rustic charm & contemporary elegance. The exposed brick walls, soft lighting, & vintage decor create an inviting ambiance. The buzz of the F1 weekend added an extra layer of excitement. Beverages: ☕ Our cappuccinos were a delightful start. The velvety foam & robust espresso set the tone for a memorable meal. A warm cup of coffee in hand, we were ready to explore the menu. Brunch: 🍗🧇 "Two Eggs to Your Taste" arrived promptly. The eggs were cooked to perfection-runny yolks with a sprinkle of chives. Simple yet satisfying, they reminded us of home-cooked breakfasts. A classic choice for any brunch lover. The Chicken & Waffles stole the show! Crispy fried chicken atop fluffy waffles, drizzled with maple syrup & a hint of hot sauce. The sweet-savory combination danced on our taste buds. Generous portions & Instagram-worthy presentation made this dish a winner. Service: 👏 Our server deserves applause. Friendly, attentive, & genuinely interested in our experience. When my wife casually mentioned it was my birthday, they surprised us with a delightful dessert-a sweet gesture that left us smiling. Overall Impression: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Brasseire 701 is a gem in Old Montreal. Whether you're a local or a visitor, it's a must-visit. The food, service, & ambiance create a harmonious symphony for your senses. We'll be back for more! 🎉🥂 Bon appétit! 🍽️

Pros : great coffee & biscuit, service was great. Cons : Our ustensils & especially the water glass smelled like eggs it was impossible to drink water / the smoked salmon was not fresh my friend had to put it aside

We wanted to come here for brunch but we didn't make a reservation in advance so we ended up getting breakfast instead. I ordered the smoked salmon egg Benedict, which was actually offered for both breakfast & brunch. The egg Benedict was scrumptious! The potatoes were warm & crispy. The hollandaise was rich & silky. The eggs were poached perfectly. My boyfriend got scrambled eggs with sausages, which were also delicious. The portions were generous. For that day, this meal kept us properly fueled to explore Montreal for the whole day. For our next trip, we will come back to Brasserie 701 for brunch :)

Food was great, went with 4 people & had the chicken & waffles & eggs Benedict but the service was the pièce de résistance, our waitress Melissa went above & beyond was very friendly & recommended the best stuff on the menu will definitely go back again thanks to Melissa!

Went there for happening gourmand for brunch we had a reservation so there wasn't a wait the restaurant was full, so would suggest a reservation, especially for brunch. The food was served very quickly & the servers were very nice. It's not a brunch that I go out of my way for. I had the lobster eggs Benedict & it was just OK & finish off with the orange crepe which was a bit too orangey for my liking but that's just my preference. Really nice atmosphere. I'd like to try it for dinner, but brunch didn't blow my socks off.
