Review Summary

Café September is a highly popular Montreal brunch destination that generates significant buzz, often resulting in long lineups and a crowded, energetic atmosphere. While many patrons praise the food as delicious and worth the wait, particularly the signature fluffy pancakes, halloumi toast, and grilled cheese with tomato soup, experiences regarding the service and seating can be inconsistent. The cafe features a minimalist, trendy aesthetic with both indoor and outdoor patio options, though the counter-order system and limited seating can make finding a spot challenging during peak hours. Opinions on the overall value remain mixed, as some guests find the quality exceptional enough to justify the price and time, while others feel the experience is overhyped and note that service quality can vary depending on the staff.

Finally tried this cafe! Luckily we didn't wait too long as the weather was a bit gloomy. Waited for about it 25 ~ minutes wasn't bad.

Ordered the grilled cheese & tomato soup which was excellent, chicken sandwich was also great. We shared the pancake with strawberries - Honestly, it wad good but not as amazing as i expected it to be.

Food was very tasty, I ordered the pancakes & my husband ordered the tomato soup. We throughly enjoyed. The place however is tight, & seating is very limited with the demand. You are sitting elbow to elbow. It was fairly noisy but nothing extreme. Would come back. Although make sure you have your pockets ready because it is not the cheapest place.

I live around the corner & walk past September cafe multiple times a day. Today, alas, my girlfriend & I decided to give them a try. Overall, our takeaway was that this place was way overhyped & too expensive. The food was decent, but between the long line, limited menu, chaotic atmosphere inside, & paying $91 for a toast, burger, pancakes, & a coffee I will not be returning again. Solid cafe at best that somehow got way overhyped & people will go because there's a line.

Best pancakes in town. Also the sandwich deluxe is fantastic! Sometimes there's a long line but it's worth the wait in my opinion

I went to this cafe with my friends, the line outside was too long but I don't mind waiting I know it's a really popular place. But the service was insanely lame, our server was slow & forgot about our order 3 times we waited an hour for pancakes.
They just look & act like they don't wanna be here, everybody is rude & they don't smile.
If you come here you need to be as PATIENT as possible, they literally try their best to get on your nerves.
We came around 1 pm, it's 2:25 when I'm writing this & the order is still not there.
