Café September est décrit comme un spot de brunch très populaire et animé, où la file d'attente est quasi inévitable, surtout les week-ends, et les places assises manquent souvent. Le menu se concentre sur quelques incontournables bien exécutés: pancakes moelleux, avocado toast et halloumi toast, tomate soupe et grilled cheese, avec des coups de cœur pour le sandwich au poulet et le matcha. Le café et le matcha sont généralement bien notés, tout comme les boissons et les portions généreuses. L'ambiance est chaleureuse et décontractée, avec une énergie vive et une décoration simple mais efficace; mais ce cadre peut devenir bruyant et surpeuplé, rendant l'expérience un peu chaotique lorsque tout le monde est là. Le service est décrit de manière contrastée: certains louent la gentillesse et l'efficacité du personnel, d'autres évoquent une impression d'imprécision ou de manque d'accueil lorsque le lieu est très chargé ou que la gestion des places est difficile. Malgré les inconvénients, Café September est largement recommandé comme l'un des meilleurs brunchs de la ville, valant le détour pour la qualité des plats et des boissons, avec la recommandation d'y aller tôt ou en semaine pour éviter les files et profiter pleinement du menu.
Un endroit surfait : la décoration est très froide, seulement 3 tables pour 12 personnes, & le reste des places façon bar, tous en ligne. Pas pratique pour se retrouver à plusieurs. Très peu de place pour bouger. La nourriture est très classique & chère. Très peu de boissons autres que cafés & chocolat. Pas de bière ni d'alcool en général. Une énorme attente dehors ce dimanche matin, 45mn & cela n'en valait pas la peine.
Pour autant, les toasts son généreux & goûteux, mention spéciale pour celui à l'halloumi. Les pancakes sont aussi bien garnis & très bons.
À faire uniquement en dehors des heures de pointe.
i went there three times, it is pretty packed & messy inside but good is insane. The pancakes do deserve their hype, HALOOMI TOAST is delicioussssss & i didn't expect it to be that amazing. Drinks too are very great. Go there early if you can or else you will wait
Excellent coffee place with great food options.
The pancakes are excellent & à must try. I have also tried the avocado toast which is delicious on brioche bread, with a generous amount of avocado.
The halloumi toast is also very good again generous portions.
I like their matcha latte which is good.
The only inconvenience is that you can have a long line to eat there especially in the summer & week-ends & there is no reservations.
Super cool spot with delicious food! Gets super busy so there might be a wait/line, but it's worth it! Try the halloumi toast - highly recommend. & the pancakes are a must too!
Incredible must try spot! It was very busy on a Saturday morning but the staff was quick to keep us in the loop about wait times. Incredibly friendly & kind staff, beautiful interior, & the food…. WOW. My partner & I ordered a macchiato & a matcha for drinks. If you're a matcha drinker, you'll be pleased to hear that they serve ceremonial grade. Both of our drinks were perfect! We shared the pancakes & the avocado toast. I think that was some of the best, most flavorful avocado toast I've ever had. The pancakes were so yummy as well, perfectly fluffy & served with a very generous portion of maple syrup. I can't recommend this place enough!
Probably the best pancakes I've ever had, the avocado toast was unreal as well, coming from someone who makes it regularly for breakfast theirs just hit differently.
Also tried the grilled cheese + tomato soup. It was good nothing to go wild about.
Also it's very busy & first come first serve we were able to get seats fairly quickly. Would definitely go back just for the pancakes alone 💯

Visiting from NYC & this spot did not disappoint. The pancakes were fluffy & delicious, the breakfast sandwich was perfectly toasted. Cozy vibe & great service, will definitely return next time we're in Montreal!
Food is good but wait time & price are ridiculous. Why am I playing 20$ for toast, 1 egg & avocado? Why did I wait an hour to get it? Why did I have to fight with someone to get a spot to sit?
Excellent brunch/lunch spot! Line is always long so recommend getting there before 10am to avoid long waits. Avocado toast & halloumi toast were excellent & filling. Pancakes were superb, salty & generous maple syrup! Iced vanilla latte was delicious.
Don't get discouraged by the line - there's always one, but it moves fast. The place has a chill, surf-meets-September café vibe & a relaxed menu to match. The halloumi toast was great, but the tomato soup with grilled cheese was definitely the highlight. We'll probably brave the cold just to come back & try more of their menu!

You order at the bar & seat yourself. I heard there's always a line, but it moved quickly. The avocado toast was flavorful, dressed with maybe a cilantro lime sauce? It was superior to all other avocado toast I've had. The pancakes were so fluffy, topped with salt flakes. We enjoyed a flat white & latte, espresso was good. The cafe was tastefully designed. They have indoor & outdoor seating. Highly recommend!
Visited from Toronto on a vacation to Montreal. Found it online & saw how good the food looked. When we arrived, there was a line outside (a good sign, but never fun to wait!!!) Once in line, we only waited for about 20 minutes. They gave us a physical menu (which I loved) & the prices honestly make sense with the quality of food. We got: the tomato burrata toast, the avocado toast, a side fry, & an iced latte & iced chai. The employees working were so sweet, had such a fun energy. Barista was so cool.
The food was genuinely sooo good. They give you a number & bring it to you. It was a cool mix of a cafe plus a restaurant. I highly recommend the avocado toast & the fries. Fries were crispy & NOT soggy/oily. LOVE!!!!
definitely busy & a bit of a wait, so if you don't like that vibe, don't come. but the food is worth it.
Nice little café with interesting menu. The staff are very welcoming & helpful but you can see that they are very busy. I went there with my friend around 10.40 & we had to wait in line outside to get a table as it was packed!
They have tables indoors, outdoors in front of the café & at the back in a little garden.
I ordered the famous traditional pancakes thst i keot seeing online. I was really looking forward to them. They are very fluffy & well made! The serving is huge & vould be shared between 2 people easily, even 3 if it's for kids. I enjoyed the first bites but unfortunately it was too sweet for my taste. I saw other people eat it without problem but i do not eat many sweets in general, i prefer savory foods, so to me it tasted very sweet but it might suit other people's taste. Good thing i had paired it with their homemade lemonade as the sourness of it went well with the sweetness & balanced it all.
My friend got a tomato & burrata toast with ham on the side because it comes without meat. If it was to be ordered again we'd get it without the meat because the toast is quite big & very filling. It was really tasty! I enjoyed it better than the pancakes. I mean it was savory so it suited my taste better!
Their portion sizes are definitely generous & i think that their prices are quite fair. I'd definitely go again to try their other dishes!
