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.

Lovely afternoon tea, beautiful ambiance & delicious food. My only complaint would be the tea was a bag of tea rather than loose leaf

My dear friend brought me here for my birthday lunch, & I was immediately impressed by how beautifully the café is designed - every detail was thoughtfully done. We ordered the truffle fries & the Cobb salad, & both were absolutely delicious.

What truly stood out, however, was the outstanding service from Michelle. She was professional, warm, & genuinely thoughtful. She overheard my friend mentioning to the maître d' that it was my birthday, & to my surprise, she brought out some delicious macarons with a candle!

That small but heartfelt gesture made my day & truly elevated the entire experience. I hope the management recognizes how fortunate they are to have such a dedicated & professional person on their team. I'll definitely be coming back!

Nous étions venus pour le afternoon tea & nous étions assez déçus de la qualité de la nourriture. D'abord, le afternoon tea coûte 59$+tx (donc environ 76$ total) & c'était décevant pour ma part en raison des bouchées miniscules pour le prix payé, ainsi que les goûts & les saveurs qui étaient très basiques (aucune complexité). Ce menu qui devait mettre en valeur le miel : on n'a pas pu assez goûter dans aucun des mignardises (décevant). Je ne le recommande pas du tout, dépensez le même montant dans un autre endroit si vous voulez faire le afternoon tea. Néanmoins, quelques points positifs : notre serveur Jeffrey a été très gentil & serviable durant tout l'après-midi. Le décor du restaurant est très accueillant & on peut parler entre amis avec aisance (on s'entend bien). Malgré cela, l'expérience fût médiocre, je ne pense pas revenir.

We came for the Guerlain afternoon tea. Our waiter was Marc, he's amazing. We had the best time. 🌟

Not tasty food for the price. Atmosphere is lovely as is the food presentation. Service very average but the biggest issue is the freshness of the food. I ordered the beet salad & the beets tasted like nothing, no flavour which means they were not fresh enough. That salad cost $24 So with tax & tip that tasteless salad cost $32. Not acceptable. The tea I ordered was lukewarm .
