Always my fave place EVERRRR. I can't recommend this place enough. You legit have to get everything; the grilled cheese, the pancakes, the tomato sandwich. None of this food has ever disappointed me or not slapped. I love September cafe unfortunately it's really not overrated.

I'm someone that does not agree with standing in a line for food, but this experience changed my perspective, for this place I'll stand in line!!

Best pancakes hands down, especially when you have been searching for the perfect texture pancake with a nice bite & flavor. The scone was great, the sandwich was great , everything was great! If you're around & want to have the best experience in Montreal, believe the hype & stand on the line!

Definitely recommend getting their early, specifically when it opens up to save yourself the stress.

Tracez sa route pour un brunch mais n'y allez pas c'est juste un spot touristique hype sur TikTok

1:44h d attente de la queue à avoir son plat devant soi

Musique beaucoup trop forte

Service comme au Fast food tu commandes au comptoir & tu vas chercher une place parmi le peu quil y ait

La nourriture était écoeurante, autant mettre 2 pancakes que 3 énormes. Le burger y'en a un 15$ avec deux steaks au coin de la rue chez rosie burger.

Le seul truc positif c'est le sandwich cheesy avec la soupe.

the pancakes are fluffy & not too sweet.
the breakfast sandwich is amazing too.

This is consistently one of my top favourite brunch spot in Montreal. I have been going to September Cafe for years & I have never been disappointed. Although all their dishes are great, I always go back to the breakfast sandwich with added avocado (deluxe is also good but very filling!) & their pancakes. They make a great match but their cardamom latte is still my go-to. Bone broth is a must if you're visiting on a colder day. Vibe is always great but expect there to be a lineup if you're planning to have brunch on-site during weekend days.

Good food but I wouldn't line up more than one time to eat at this place. Thankfully we just had to wait about 30 mins & not an hour or more like other reviews as I don't think it worth waiting all that time. The breakfast sandwich was very tasty, the tomato soup maybe too sweet but still delicious. One of the very few places where I found unsweetened matcha & it was very good. The smash burger & avocado toast are good but just a regular burger & toast that you can find elsewhere. The pancakes are very good, fluffy & good portion. We ordered them with the syrup on the side & they were great.

Arrive when they open or be prepared to wait in line. We arrived at 8:08am & still had to wait about 15-20 mins before being seated. Ordered the matcha latte (way too sweet), cappuccino (quite good!), the tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwich which was absolutely delicious & the blueberry pancakes which were fluffy & tasty. Would recommend! Theres plenty of seating as well: front patio, back patio & a shared indoor dining space. Cute spot in general in a vibrant quirky neighbourhood. Love this area for food!

good but not worth lining up for. it's just a regular buttermilk pancake you can get elsewhere. coffee was fine but too milky. I've definitely had better breakfast sandwiches too.

they also have very limited seating, you can tell that it's meant to be primarily a quick grab & go cafe, not really a food spot. if they want to maintain the momentum they need to respect their customers by operating like a restaurant so there aren't such long lines.

September Café absolutely lived up to the hype. We waited around 1 hour & 30 minutes, & I can honestly say it was worth it. The atmosphere is vibrant & the café has a beautiful, minimalist aesthetic that makes it a great spot for brunch.

We ordered the pancakes, breakfast sandwiches, & the avocado & smoked salmon toast, & every dish was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. The pancakes were incredibly fluffy, the breakfast sandwiches were filling & perfectly balanced, & the avocado salmon toast was made with high-quality ingredients. We also tried the matcha, which was smooth, rich, & one of the best we've had.

Yes, the line can be long, but it's easy to understand why this place is so popular. If you're visiting Montréal & don't mind waiting for an exceptional brunch, September Café is definitely worth adding to your list.

Impeccable service & delicious food! This place had such great options for food & it was a toss up for the Goddess salad or the Cob salad! I ended up going with the Goddess salad & i didn't regret it! The portions were very generous & the flavour was great! My partner had the Tomato soup & Chicken Sandwich & devoured it within 5 mins! Overall the whole atmosphere was very welcoming regardless of the busy morning rush! they were well organized & we were able to quickly grab ourselves a table & eat within 15-20minutes!
