We were meaning to get a light breakfast & my wife & I were a bit shocked by what we got. The food was amazing though & our server was top notch. Even let us know about a few places we needed to check out while we were in Montreal. I don't think there is anything on the menu that would be disappointing, judging by the look of everything as it went by. The breakfast poutine hit the spot & the French toast was perfect. Come hungry, leave happy.
Très bonne expérience. Cependant, les réceptionnaires ont été désagréable en nous indiquant qu'elle nous avait appelé 3 fois pour s'installer. Nous étions 4 & a 1 mètre de l'entrée. Jamais notre nom n'a été appelé. Heureusement, la nourriture était excellente & la serveuse au petit soin. Merci pour ce moment

The service here was by far the best we have ever received. Our waiter Mark was very attentive & checked up often if we needed anything - not to mention how quick the food arrived to the table!

Totally like this place, amazing customer service, delicious food, decoration of the place very nice, very convenient location if staying near by there is so much to do.
Top notch performance as usual & the friendliness of both staff & patrons was surprisingly refreshing. Bring your friends & family it's definitely worth memories.
I don't recommend the Montreal Benny but my husband's chicken sandwich & waffle fries were amazing. Best waffle fries I've ever had. Service was quick & servers were pleasant
First timer: very nice experience & the waiter was friendly as well. It was 3 of us & 2 ordered the strawberry French toast & 1 ordered a fruit bowl & a smoothie. Also ordered a side of breakfast potatoes The French toast was amazing, very filling, strawberries were great. I definitely recommend this breakfast dish. 10/10 Breakfast potatoes: were 10/10 definitely seasoned nicely & paired well with the ketchup. I would recommend this place. Enjoy 😊
The food is not bad however the used to bring bread with the food that stopped & now they stopped offering fruits with the brunch plates on top of this the prices went up !
Visiting Montreal, my friend & I breakfasted at Eggspectation. We sat outside, where a nice breeze added to the comfort of the setting. My friend ordered a Bene-Ducked & I ordered a Veggie Omelet work a toasted buttered Bagel on the side. The duck in the Bene-Ducked was well- prepared & flavorful. The Veggie Omelet was tasty as well. Originally hailing from NY, I was looking forward to a Montreal Bagel & I was not disappointed. The sesame bagel was nicely toasted & quite delicious. My friend really liked his Iced Cappuccino & I had a nice Oat Milk. Service was excellent, as our server was responsive without being intrusive. Eggspectation is a nice place to grab breakfast, especially if you like Eggs Benedict dishes. I heartily recommend it.
