Dans l'ensemble, Dandy est présenté comme une adresse brunch populaire toute la journée dans le Vieux-Montreal, connue pour ses pancakes à la ricotta et un sandwich au poulet frit très croquant, des portions généreuses et un personnel amical et efficace; l'ambiance est vivante et stylée, le café et les boissons sont appréciés, mais les files d'attente et des incohérences occasionnelles de service ainsi que des tarifs plus élevés peuvent influencer certaines visites; pourtant de nombreux avis indiquent qu'ils reviendraient pour tester d'autres plats et apprécient l'ambiance et la cuisine de qualité qui font la renommée de Dandy.
Overall great experience. Nothing stood out as bad. However, besides the chicken sandwich, the other dishes (especially with the overly thick & crusty sourdough) were uninspired. Bread to toppings ratios were lopsided. The flavours did not complement exceptionally well, although the ingredients were fresh & high-quality. Would MAYBE come back for the other dishes.

Don't judge this place by what you see.
This is high quality fresh food.
Split the crispy chicken sandwich & salad.
Both great.
I don't usually rave about a salad but this was special.
We wanted to go back & couldn't make it.
Put this one on your list.
I'm definitely going back.
Almost forgot the extremely friendly service.
Came for brunch on Sunday around 2 pm (all day brunch!)
Menu is straightforward. Atmosphere is amazing, we love the vibe. Staff was quick, attentive & kind.
Food was pretty good & fresh, the highlight definitely being the amazing creamy dressing of the salad to the sandwich. However the price point does feel a biiiiit too high. These are Vieux Montreal prices, or maybe Shay. With drinks, two people came out to $111. Not TOO too high, obviously we appreciated the excellent service & the fresh food but the same could be found elsewhere (maybe villeray/plateau) for a bit less.
Delicious food! Large portions, almost too American lol. We had the chicken sandwich, the pancakes (a must) & the summer breakfast. Would recommend all! The service was very attentive & friendly.
This was a recommendation from our Airbnb host & it was wonderful! First resturant we came to after landing in Montreal. The chicken sandwich was excellent! & the service was awesome!
There's a line here for good reason. The food is excellent as is the service for a spot so busy. We had Caesars to start followed by the Chicken Sandwich, Ricotta Pancakes & fingerling potatoes. Everything was fabulous.
You know a place is great when you're planning your next choice from the menu before you leave.
Thank you !

Dandy is the quintessential montreal brunch place. We had the butter milk fried chix sandwich & the endless summer breakfast. the food was excellent & portions are generous. the service was fast & really nice. Love the vibe 💯
A creative sandwich, the miso adds a lot of layers & exotic flavours & the coffee has exceptional flavour is worth savouring for moderately addicted coffee drinkers.
Service was friendly, attentive, & efficient. Place is designed to look spacious which is nice. Food was good but nothing special, especially for the price. I would say the cocktails are the highlight. My sister was of the same opinion for her food. Sausage roll could be better seasoned, mushroom toast was good but a little sweet for some reason, lots of mushrooms though which was great. Presentation could be better, putting the egg on top everytime doesn't make for the best photos. My sister got the fried chicken sandwich & she felt it was just alright, & I agree from the piece I tasted. The pistachio matcha drink initially tasted mostly like Bailey's. Make sure to mix in the pistachio topping to get the full experience which was delicious. Tiramisu latte with Kahlua was great. They do not skimp on the Kahlua.

Cute cozy place at the old port. The only dish to recommend is the chicken sandwich. My sourdough was hard like stone. Concise menu but portions are bit small. Paying extras for the atmosphere.
First impressions: we were 2 people & arrived on a Monday at 11:30 am & saw about 7 or 8 groups ahead of us in line. We were expecting a 1 hour wait & would have been fine with that (we even brought out books to read in line). Nice surprise to see we got seated within 15 minutes. Service: waiter was very friendly & quick & came back several times to refill waters, even during the lunch rush. It took about 40 minutes to get our food after ordering, but again it was the lunch rush Drinks: my wife's $7.00 orange juice tasted suspiciously Tropicana (boo!), but my maple latte was great. Very sweet & tasted more like maple candies than maple syrup. Got an Americano after that which was nice. Food: started with the Chicken sandwich, which was huge & delicious. Fried chicken thighs (not breast) on a fluffy brioche with a herby creamy sauce on a bed of slaw that included granny smith apple. We cut it in half & shared. We added a side of fingerling potatoes which were crunchy & well seasoned with herbs & salt. Came with a side of garlic sauce, & went well together with the sandwich. Last we had the stack of pancakes which remained warm by the time we got to it. The pancakes were dense (not as fluffy as Arthur's) but intentionally so I think. The pool of maple butter at the bottom was awesome & did not get sponged into the bottom pancake. Came with lemon infused mascarpone on the side, which added some bitter to offset the sweet. I liked it, but my wife could have done without (but she still didn't give me her portion!) Overall was a great experience & would return to see what else Dandys has to offer!
On comprend la file d'attente! Restaurant de brunch populaire, c'est branché, c'est beau, il y a un menu simple & efficace. Le sandwich au poulet frit est hyper bien balancé, l'assiette déjeuner avec une salade & une toast montée d'un demi-avocat & d'un oeuf est plus équilibrée pour un repas santé. Je recommande de partager même si ce n'est pas le concept juste pour goûter à plus de choses (sandwich poulet frit miam mais j'aime bien plus) Ce n'est pas donné, mais acceptable pour la qualité & l'emplacement Vieux-Port, pour les plats principaux du moins (~25$) puisque le reste semble typiquement inflation en restauration (6.99$ pour extra 3 tranches bacon(!), ou comme partout similaire, des boissons à 7$ ou cocktail 15$).
Sept 2024 -Didnt like it. ordered chicken sandwich, ricotta pancake & breakfast avocado toast. All were OK. Food is overrated. Ambiance is good though. Coffee was OK too.
