Lovely little cafe with a great selection of breakfast options. We were greeted warmly & our omelette & Lulu Special were tasty & fresh. They also had gluten free toast which was a nice surprise. We hope to return! Thanks Cafe Lulu
Stopped in for breakfast & really enjoyed it! The omelet was flavorful, & the crepe was not overly sweet with plenty of fresh fruit. What really stood out was the staff-they were super accommodating, explained the menu, & made us feel welcome despite us only speaking English. Prices are very reasonable. Definitely a great spot for a good breakfast!

A quick stop for breakfast turned into a family favorite. Great service & delicious food! They were patient & friendly as we practiced our French. Highly recommend!
Arrivée à Montréal, mon mari & moi avions arrêté à cette endroit pour prendre le petit déjeuner. Mon homme avait commandé une crêpe à la crème de pistache & moi une crêpe jambon, fromage & oeufs. Le personnel est aimable & les prix raisonnable.
C'est délicieux, mais sinon j'ai une suggestion pour mon assiette ce qui serait encore plus délicieux c'est de l'accompagner avec une sauce hollandaise.
Sinon, c'est très bon & on reviendra à chaque qu'on revient à Montréal.
First family trip to Montreal & we found Cafe Lulu across the street from our hotel. Great food for us & our kids - delicious croissants, fresh made crepes & good coffee. We enjoyed lunch so much, we came back for breakfast & will be back again before we go home. Also, the staff is so friendly & welcoming & does whatever is asked to make your meal exactly as you want it - a big deal with 2 kids who can be a little picky at time! Would definitely recommend!!
This place is a must-visit! Everyone here is so nice. They even read the menu to my boyfriend & me because we only speak English-like the stupid Americans we are. The food was out of this world, absolutely delicious, & not too expensive either. Parking was easy to find. We've been here twice on this trip, & we'll definitely be back when we visit again.
Café vraiment cozy! Moi & mon copain avons pris deux nouveautés sur le menu: crêpe aux pistaches avec coulis de framboise & crêpe banane caramel, les deux étaient vraiment excellente & les portions assez généreuses, j'étais bien remplie. Le service était parfait aussi! Prix très abordable:)
Je cherchais un sandwich pour emporter dans le bus & je me suis retrouvé par hasard dans ce café: quelle chance! En plus d'y trouver un bon sandwich au poulet & un délicieux café, j'y ai rencontré des employés charmants & attentionnés. Je recommande ++ cet endroit & reviendrai avec plaisir!
J'y allais régulièrement. Prix abordables, déjeuners de base mais nutritifs. Ma dernière visite demeurera la dernière puisqu'il semblait problématique de s'asseoir pour manger à une table de 4 (alors que nous étions 2). Nous avons été informés qu'il faudrait se déplacer si un groupe arrivait. Pour aller où, manger dehors? Il n'y avait pas d'autres tables... Manque de jugement.
