Review Summary

Café September is widely celebrated as a premier brunch destination in Montreal, beloved for its exceptionally fluffy pancakes, comforting tomato soup paired with grilled cheese, and high-quality breakfast sandwiches. While the café maintains a vibrant, minimalist atmosphere and consistently friendly service, its popularity often leads to significant wait times and a crowded environment. Most patrons agree that the freshness and flavor of the dishes make the experience well worth the effort, especially when visiting during quieter weekday hours. Although the seating process can be hectic, the delicious coffee, artisanal lattes, and generous portions ensure that guests frequently return for another satisfying meal.

Pancakes are good but for 20$ it's way tooo expensive. 5$ to add fruit on top. The hostess/waitress was rude & unwelcoming. The wait times are over an hour with no separate take out line. Fend for yourself seating after you pay, which was awkward considering they don't request people to leave who are clearly just taking up space (while the line is around the corner). Maybe the juice is worth the squeeze on a weekday but definitely not a weekend.

Made me miss an appointment with their lack of organization.

Love this brunch place! My two favourite items on the menu are the grilled cheese with soup, & the halloumi sandwich - the taste is just amazing.

Best tasting & best looking pancakes in the city ! We attempted last year to try September but the lineup was all the way to the end of the block . This time around we arrived early , waited 25 min in line & it was worth every second. The food is amazing & the service was great . By the time we left the lineup was insane .

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.

Underwhelming. Too little food for the price. Otherwise great quality & nice staff. Long lines though.

Oui c'est bon, mais il faut sincèrement réfléchir à un moyen de réduire l'attente. Ce n'est pas normal & ça gâche l'expérience. & même une fois assis, la moitié des places ne sont pas confortable.
