Update: We liked this place so much that we went back on our last day for a panini sandwich! (Added pictures)
25 degrees outside & we wanted some warmth. (We are from California.) Stopped for a latte but decided to get the caramel bananas crepe. Both were delicious. The owner & staff were very friendly!

The hotel where we stayed suggested this place. I was suspicious since it was literally around the corner. Was it suggested based on location or something else? Well. It is something else!
The staff were so friendly! My daughter ordered the crepe with strawberries & Nutella. I ordered the crepe with cheese & grilled vegetables. They were huge! They were delicious! I added a cup of steaming hot drip coffee & two fresh baked croissants as a snack later in the day:-)
What a wonderful way to start the day!!!
BTW-I was so excited to eat my crêpe that my daughter didn't get the chance to snap a photo of it.
Impossible de ne pas laisser un avis pour cet endroit.
J'en ai fait des restaurants déjeuner dans ma vie, & souvent ça se ressemble pas mal d'une place à l'autre. Mais ici, c'est clairement une coche au-dessus.
Les crêpes sont incroyables, les omelettes excellentes, tout est super bien fait. En plus, l'emplacement est parfait.
Si vous aimez les bons déjeuners, vous devez absolument essayer cette place.

I had the best crepe ever at Café Lulu. It was a new addition to the menu with pistachio cream & was absolutely delightful. Highly recommend.
The chai latte was fantastic as well!
such a cute cafe, & the employees & owner(s) are so nice! we got crepes & a smoked salmon bagel which were all delicious, as well as hot chocolate which I definitely recommend.
Every item on the menu looks tempting, & it was hard to choose. We tried the jambon crêpe & the jambon omelette, & both were absolutely heavenly-full of flavor & perfectly prepared. The space is very clean, cozy, & authentic, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The staff were incredibly helpful & welcoming. The coffee deserves a special mention-the vanilla latte was the best I've had in a long time. We truly enjoyed every single bite of our breakfast & would happily come back again. ☕🥐
Cafe Lulu was near our hotel. It appears unassuming, but it's a treasure. Our family tried the sweet & savory crepes as well as the avocado toast & pastries. The portions were very generous & I felt like I was immersed in to a traditional Montreal experience, that only locals would know.
We are in Montreal & staying a block from here so we stopped in for breakfast. The staff were very friendly & we really enjoyed our breakfast here.
We all had crêpes & I had a coffee. My youngest son ordered a Nutella with no bananas & when they brought it to our table the lady said crêpe with extra bananas. It made me smile.
I'd definitely recommend this place, & we plan to have Breakfast again there tomorrow before we leave for New York because it was so awesome!
