Reviews describe Café September as a vibrant, busy brunch spot where pancakes are a must and items like avocado toast, halloumi toast, tomato soup, grilled cheese, and tasty coffee or matcha frequently score highly; the atmosphere is energetic and welcoming, but seating is tight and lines are common, leading to longer waits or turnover concerns, with mixed notes on service depending on the visit and some pricing comments.
Super amazing spot! We got there before the diner rush. Halloumi toast was exquisite. Gave me a little nostalgia from a former trip to Eastern Australia.
The food was good but the experience could be better. I do recommend, the whole menu looks amazing, will have to go again! edit: i went again, they have good coffee & the halloumi toast is excellent
September Café is a breakfast paradise that absolutely exceeded our expectations! We tried the tomato & burrata toast, which was out of this world-fresh, flavorful, & perfectly balanced. The avocado toast was equally delightful, with the perfect mix of creamy & crunchy. The halloumi toast & fried chicken sandwich were also fantastic, each offering a unique & delicious twist on classic breakfast fare. What really impressed us were the cold brews; every one we tried was simply amazing, with rich flavors & the perfect kick to start the day. The quality & attention to detail in every dish & drink we had were exceptional. The ambiance of the café is cozy & welcoming, making it the perfect spot to relax & enjoy a meal. The staff was friendly & attentive, adding to the overall fantastic experience. September Café has truly mastered the art of breakfast, & we can't wait to come back for more. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a delicious & satisfying start to their day!
Friendly staff but slow service, took like half an hour just for a sandwich. Website doesn't have the menu. Fried chicken sandwich was tasteless. My friend's halloumi toast was delicious. Iced latte was good. Cold brew was typical. Backless stools & low tables don't make this place particularly ergonomic. Music was good though.
Simply: Great food. Breakfast sandwich & grilled halloumi toast are incredible. Good pancakes too. Seating's a bit restricted & lines are long but for good reason - incredibly worth it every time. Line moves pretty fast & they're v efficient with the demands so even if it looks long, it moves fast & so worth it at the end!

Always find myself craving their halloumi toast! Quite packed on the weekend, but there's a reason this place is popular. Also have a cute-kinda-hidden terrasse in the back. Definitely not over-hyped!
I heard SO much about this cafe so I was so excited to finally try it & it did NOT disappoint. Wow the food & the coffee were excellent!! The deluxe breakfast sandwich was so tasty & the halloumi toast with a refreshing coleslaw salad on top was phenomenal! but the star of the show was their perfect 1000/10 chocolate chip cookie with sea salt. It was by far the best cookie i've ever had in my life without exaggeration (MUST TRY) The cashier was awesome & the whole vibe was great! it gets packed pretty quick any day of the week so get there for opening or be prepared to wait in a long line
Came here at 11:55am on Friday, June 28. Lunch rush so there was a line up get in & make an order. Waited about 20 mins. But it was worth the wait! Service was quick, efficient & welcoming. Plenty of seatings outside in front of the cafe, inside & outback! I got the matcha latte with almond milk, halloumi toast & soup of the day. Worth every penny! Freaking delicious!! Coming bacl to try their sandwhiches amd cookies & more lattes 😋

Nice spot to grab a bite with coffee. I love the concept as it's very relaxed & chill. However, it can get very crowded & loud. They don't have AC so the humidity is on some other level on rainy days. The prices are expensive; BUT everything tasted amazing. I absolutely loved the Halloumi toast!!! I added an extra egg on the side & it totaled 17$. My friends burger & fries + cold brew were to die for - it cost 27$. I'll definitely be back for the food alone & chill atmosphere. However, please add AC.
Adorable place with delicious food! We got the classic pancakes & the halloumi toast, both were phenomenal with huge portion sizes. Not very much seating & gets busy fast but definitely worth a wait.
Exceptional! Definitely understand the hype behind the cafe. Pancakes were amazing! Fluffy, buttery & melt if your mouth. The fresh strawberries complimented it perfectly. The halloumi toast was also yummy. The apples & dried cranberries in the slaw cut the richness & made the dish well balanced. Even on a Tuesday afternoon it was still busy. Will definitely be back!

Toast halloumi was soooo great!! I add extra jambon & it was even more delicious! A perfect combination!! Remember you need to order food at the bar first & then find a seat for yourself. So the line was moving really slow. 😔 not so friendly for solo brunch
Me love this place! Best breakfast sandwich for a pretty good price. I also love their halloumi toast.. we love a little sweet & salty moment. It's kinda like a 2 for one special where u get the toast with a giant salad on top. We love. The Cajun chicken salad didn't look too hot. My friend didn't mind tho. It's also always very busy. Good for them. Would highly recommend. Also very smooth matcha.
Mon café préféré à Montréal, j'aime l'ambiance, la nourriture est délicieuse (le toast halloumi est incroyable), le prix est raisonnable, le café très bon. Le seul point négatif est qu'il y a souvent du monde. Je recommande a 200%
