We enjoyed a lovely brunch, the breakfast sandwich was delicious. The potatoes were the star of the show, crispy & crunchy, with just the right amount seasoning. We had excellent service as well.

Formidable accueil & encore plus formidable tartine de saumon. Le goût est frais & fin, je recommande vivement ! Quel dommage que je n'ai pas un estomac plus grand, j'en aurais pris une deuxième :)

Really adorable spot in Old Montreal area that we stumbled upon for brunch! Our server (a man; can't remember his name) was so friendly, quick & sweet. The food was delicious & portioned well. We also had mimosas & they were amazing! The vibe was very welcoming & everybody on the team made an effort to chat with guests & make their experience memorable. Loved it!

If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. My husband & I went for lunch today & sat at the bar because it looked so cozy. The decor of the place is super stylish & inviting. We had the pleasure of being served by Ce. She was amazing! So hospitable, friendly, attentive & overall a fabulous person. Jordan wasn't our server but he was also awesome, as the second he heard us ask Ce for extra tissues, he was right there with them, & it shows they have a great team that works together while having fun. The food & drinks were delicious. We had the beef tartare with fries with shaved truffles & the beef sandwich. Everything exceeded our expectations. It was our weekend away visiting Montreal & we felt the warm hospitality of the city right in this place. We are both very grateful to the staff of Buvette Nicole for making our visit a very fun & welcoming one.

Incredible experience. Chef Alexander Zelina brings his experience from the highest level at a decent price. It's a given that this restaurant is underrated for what you get & the price you pay. Would recommend to anyone who wants authenticity in the old port.

Way too expensive for what it is. Great staff but a robbery of your wallet

La nourriture laisse à désirer. Personnel tres sympa. Les prix sont exorbitants pour de tels repas. Nous n'y retournerons pas.
