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.

Even though there's always a lineup but its one of my favorite local brunch spots. They provided great coffee. & the food is amazing. We love the Pancake with the maple syrup & butter on top, such a good combination. & i love the halloumi toast, it comes with toast, grilled cheese & mixed veggies on top. It gives the perfect tastes with their dressings. Also the tomato soup is really good.
So happy that we can finally stop by at this place.

One of my favourite local brunch spots. Love the pancakes & breakfast sandwich. Honestly every item I've tried on the menu really hit home. Only complaint is the ridiculously long line on the weekends & limited seating as well. Going there has to be a time investment in the mornings which is honestly be a detternt.

Halloumi toast is amazing! Its extremely filling, hearty, & fun to eat 😊 I paired it with an iced chai & I feel like it was a perfect combo! Staff is also very kind & lighthearted. Despite the popularity, ambiance is not overwhelming since there is plenty of space to eat outside as well (: Truly a gem!!

September Surf Café is a must-visit in Montreal.
Their Classic Pancakes, Avocado Toast, & Halloumi Cheese Sandwich are the favourites, but the Halloumi Sandwich stands out the most. Its complex, well-balanced flavours never get boring, & it's satisfying to the last bite.

Don't miss the Chocolate Chip Cookie & Matcha Cookie for takeout-they're perfect little treats.

It's easy to spend over $60 for two, even just for breakfast, but the quality & atmosphere make it absolutely worth it.
If you want to avoid the lines, arrive at 8 AM.

Came here on a Sunday morning there was a line however it did move quickly. Tables are limited & mostly filled however we got lucky & snagged one right away. You order & pay at the counter & they bring it out. Had a mimosa & ice matcha they were decent but nothing special. The avocado toast was quite good however I don't understand the hype around the pancakes as they were very dry . Overall not bad I would still come back for the toast.
