Déjeunette is frequently described as an affordable, hearty breakfast option in downtown Montreal, with generous portions, a wide menu, and quick service that keeps prices low for the area. The setting is a cafeteria style space in an underground food court, reachable by escalators, with plenty of seating and a clean eating area, though the descent and location can feel less than ideal for a morning bite. Menu highlights include eggs and sausage combos, omelets, a croissant with egg, bacon and cheese, and a popular potato dish with chipotle sauce, with cappuccino and other drinks noted as good values. Overall service tends to be friendly and accommodating, with staff who remember regulars, while a few items such as avocado toast receive mixed reviews and some photos of the dishes do not match what is served. Value is a common thread, with many noting a solid breakfast for less than nearby cafes and it is considered worth a visit if in the downtown area despite the somewhat utilitarian setting.
Chaima helped me out & she was very kind & asked me how the service was, it is one of the cheapest places to get a great breakfast in Montreal & half of the time I cannot even finish it because the portions are very generous. Their breakfast potatoes with Chipotle sauce are my favorite thing on the menu :)
Bonjour,
Je suis une cliente régulière a Dejeunette. Tout d'abord pour le service a la clientèle. Mlle Chaima est toujours poli & respectueuse. dans la bâtisse a lequel je travaille, il y a un café Dépôt Mais je préfère de loin aller a Déjeunent justement pour le service personnalisé de Chaima. Elle se souvient de mes goûts & elle est toujours tres gentille. Merci pour ton service !!!
Great place with a huge breakfast repertoire (something for everybody!) & a quick service. Lots of seating space.
Not so easy to get too (its underground, you need to go down by stairs twice) & for instance at 11 other stores are still closed & being cleaned, which is not an ideal setting for a breakfast.
Les prix sont pas chers mais on comprend pourquoi. Le toast à l'avocat etait décevant. Si vous cherchez quelque chose pour ne pas vous ruiner ca peut faire l'affaire mais il y a mieux dans le foodcourt & mieux en brunch. Les photos du propriétaire ne sont pas représentatif de ce que l'on va recevoir.

The pictures of their food lie. Maybe this was once a good place to eat but now it's bad food court food served in paper take away containers. Be warned.
Firstly, to find this place you need to take the escalator down two floors to the food court, it's not obvious where it is but it's worth it.
I ordered poached eggs & sausage (which come with potatoes) & an Americano.
The food was cooked well, was tasty & the sausage came with a really nice side sauce. The employee who served me was friendly & helpful as I speak very little french, but this obviously served the workers in this building so was pretty quiet at 11am.
The food also is really cheap in comparison to other cafes/restaurants in the area so I was able to tip really well & still have an affordable meal.
We had breakfast here on our weekend trip in Montreal. The food was great, portion were very generous & the service was amazing, Chaima served us, she was helpful & very respectful. It was my second time at Déjeunette, I was there last winter, when I was looking for a something to eat & I stumbled upon this restaurant & the service was excellent. I'll definitely recommend it, if you're in the downtown area, it's definitely worth it.

Very good service for a food court diner. Go down 2 escalators to C2 level. Very good cappuccino & a rather good 2 eggs w 2 types of meat. Not great but good.
Cashier was a very good sort.
Food was delicious. We both had vegetable omelets with cheese added-meal included fresh potatoes, choice of toast, coffee or choice of teas). Service was accommodating, quick & friendly. Cost was was less than half the price that our hotel was charging. Can do either take out or eat in. Restaurant is in food court-we were there at 8:00AM & it was the only restaurant open. The food court is underground in a nice building & the eating area is clean. There was an upright piano in the courtyard-I am not sure if you are allowed to play it. The food was good for any price-& I give the restaurant my highest recommendation.
