Dandy fonctionne comme un bistrot sophistiqué qui souligne l'intersection entre les techniques culinaires artisanales et les ingrédients issus du marché. La conception intérieure reflète une esthétique industrielle caractérisée par de hauts plafonds et de grandes fenêtres qui illuminent la salle à manger ouverte. Les offres du menu se concentrent sur des plats classiques élevés, présentant des tartines de pain au levain garnies de produits saisonniers et de ricotta maison. La cuisine utilise systématiquement des composants frais et locaux pour construire des assiettes équilibrées qui privilégient la simplicité structurelle plutôt qu'une présentation complexe. Les clients profitent d'une atmosphère animée où l'accent reste strictement mis sur la qualité de la nourriture préparée et la fonctionnalité de l'espace de travail. Cet établissement équilibre la nature décontractée d'un café inspiré du marché avec la précision technique d'une cuisine de bistrot ciblée.

Dandy est largement reconnu pour ses brunchs exceptionnels, notamment ses pancakes à la ricotta que beaucoup considèrent comme les meilleurs qu'ils aient jamais goûtés, ainsi que son sandwich au poulet frit croustillant, souvent encensé pour sa qualité et sa saveur. Les visiteurs soulignent systématiquement la fraîcheur des ingrédients et l'atmosphère belle et moderne qui font de ce restaurant une destination incontournable du Vieux-Montréal. Bien que sa grande popularité entraîne souvent des files d'attente, surtout les fins de semaine, de nombreux clients estiment que la qualité des plats, l'énergie vibrante et le service attentionné et accueillant du personnel rendent l'expérience amplement digne de l'attente.
Wait staff was lovely. The kitchen seemed a bit backed up, so we had to wait a little longer for our food than we expected, but I had a delicious spritz to keep me occupied during the wait, so all was well. Then, once the food arrived, it was so freaking good that we stopped caring that there was a wait at all. The buttermilk fried chicken sandwich was hands down the best I've ever had in my life. My dining companion had the halloumi focaccia & raved over her sandwich too. It was a wonderful addition to our day.
This was our second time at Dandy.The first time, we had a great experience, but unfortunately, today was completely different.
I ordered the cottage cheese pancakes with strawberries. The pancakes were extremely dry, almost like cardboard. I also paid an extra $5.50 for strawberries & literally received five strawberries, bringing the dish to $26.50 for dry pancakes & five strawberries.
My boyfriend ordered the fried chicken sandwich, which was also very disappointing. The bun was soggy, & the chicken didn't even seem fried. It was bland & had none of the crispy texture you would expect from a fried chicken sandwich.
Also, it took 55 mins to get are food & we arrived at opening. A table of 7 that got seated after us got served first & had order same dishes as us, very disappointing.
We spent around $80 & left extremely disappointed. For that price, there are so many better & less expensive places in Montreal. Unfortunately, we won't be coming back.
We enjoyed the breakfast here 1000%, we had Ricotta pancakes, buttermilk fried chicken & the endless summer breakfast all was 1000%, oh, don't forget the side order potatoes. P.S. the servers are very hot😀
I can't say enough good things about this place. Friendly Service, interesting lemonade & the best chicken sandwich!!!!! Nicolas & others are outstanding. Keep up the great work.
Worth the line, worth the hype. Good on every level. Don't leave without trying the pancakes. The size of the chicken sandwich? Stacking 2 fried thighs & an egg is diabolical. The potatoes would have disappeared if we weren't so full. The buttery sausage roll with that honey mustard was a perfect bite. The service was so attentive my water cup was full for every sip, even though I was drinking a great IPA. My family loved their drinks. Now it's on the must-go list for every future Montreal visit.
We loved Dandy so much the first time we came during our long weekend in Montreal that we came back the very next day! We made sure to get there right when it opened so we didn't have to wait in line. The first day we both got the endless summer breakfast, which was fantastic & had great flavors & textures. I saw people get the pancakes & knew I wanted to get those the next day, so we can back & ordered the pancakes on top of the fried chicken sandwich & the grilled halloumi sandwich (it was a lot of food, but we ate it all & it was SO WORTH IT!). What really makes each dish stand out is the amazing bread (the sourdough & focaccia are to die for) & high quality/fresh ingredients. The service is a bit slow at times, & there is a longer wait for food than at some places, but the food is worth it. We would recommend this place to anyone for brunch!
Finally made it to Dandy & it definitely lived up to the hype. The first thing I noticed was how fresh everything tasted, especially the bread-it was warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, & honestly one of the best parts of the meal. The fried chicken sandwich was juicy & perfectly cooked, & the egg on top was done just right. The halloumi sandwich was also delicious, with fresh ingredients that worked really well together. Even the side salad was crisp & well-seasoned instead of feeling like an afterthought. Great coffee, friendly service, & a cozy atmosphere. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu.
Decent place with subpar service. Food is definitely super overrated, even compared with other local brunch options. & you can get less grumpy service like literally anywhere else in the city. I was really looking forward to the chicken sandwich, but that ended up being only decent as well. The texture of the chicken was good, but the filling in the burger was too mustardy & didn't go well with the chicken for me.
I ordered a chicken burger, which was absolutely delicious. One of the best pieces of fried chicken in a burger I've ever had, for quality & taste. I'm leaving out a fifth star because the meal came with no sides, & the feel of the restaurant was that you were a little bit crowded with the nearby tables.
