Review Summary

Café Holt Ogilvy is described as a stylish space with beautiful décor and a refined yet comfortable atmosphere, where the coffee and many brunch options are praised for quality and value while service is repeatedly noted as attentive, professional and friendly; several reviews highlight standout dishes like steak and eggs, truffle fries, the Cobb salad and a well rounded brunch menu, and many visitors enjoy the chic ambiance and the option to linger with tea or cocktails, though some say the tea was bagged rather than loose leaf and a few items fall short for the price, with food sometimes arriving lukewarm and service occasionally slow or inconsistent; there are strong compliments that the staff can elevate the experience on a good day and that this location remains a go to spot in Montreal for a stylish brunch or a mid day break, while others caution that the food quality can vary and that the overall value may not match the premium setting depending on the visit, but the space remains highly regarded for its design and its ability to feel both luxe and inviting.

In 17 years of living in Montreal, it is the first time I felt profiled by a racist white host David Lapierre telling me to bring my voice down while I was facetiming my dad & speaking arabic. I measure my words because half of the room was occupied by an event where people were litteraly shouting & you could barely hear yourself when you spoke to the person next to you. My last time at Holt.

Allez-y si vous avez envie de vous faire plaisir & de profiter d'un beau décor, mais pour la nourriture en tant que telle; Regardez vos options, surtout au centre ville… 🤔

Comme dans presque tous les restaurants de nos jours, il faut faire des calculs visuels pour avoir de l'eau… ridicule.

🍔🥗
La nourriture en tant que telle était correcte. La salade César ? Nulle. Par contre, le burger, les patates douces & surtout la toast avec champignons étaient incroyablement bons.

💲
Côté prix, ce n'est pas le resto où aller si vous voulez faire des économies.

Le service était agréable. Personnellement, je préfère le bar aux tables, car le service y est plus'disponible' & ça fait plus de sens de tiper à mon avis. La personne au bar était vraiment plus chaleureuse & attentive à mes besoins.

👎Est-ce que je recommande ? Non. Quand même pas, ce n'est pas fou. Par contre, il faut y aller pour se faire sa propre idée. Nous testerons le menu après 16h & verrons si c'est moins pire.

Le service de Marc Anthony était exceptionnel ! Attentif & souriant, il a rendu notre expérience mémorable. Les plats étaient délicieux, mais c'est grâce à Marc que nous avons passé un excellent moment. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant Demander Marc Anthony au bar!

we were 6 for brunch & got put on a table in the no window corner behind a worn out counter. Even though we'd reserved 2 weeks in advance. Food was adequate & not up to par for the $$$$ I mean who serves 2 egg bennies on one piece of whole-wheat toast Quite mehhh ..... maybe better for cocktails in the evening. Bar looked nice.
