Review Summary

Eggspectation is described as a popular, bustling brunch spot with a wide all day menu that covers breakfast, brunch and lunch and is known for generous portions and solid classics like eggs Benedict, crepes, omelettes, and French toast. The atmosphere is repeatedly praised as modern, lively and welcoming, with many noting friendly, attentive service that helps keep things moving even when busy. Guests frequently mention reliable preparation and tasty dishes, including good coffee and fresh-squeezed juice, while some reviews point out occasional misses such as dishes that are overly greasy or too spicy and prices that can feel high for the quality.

Overall the consensus is that Eggspectation provides a dependable brunch and breakfast experience with generous portions, diverse choices, and a warm, energetic setting that draws repeat visits from locals and travelers alike, though it may not meet every expectation and can be busy or pricey at times.

This place is a must-visit if you are in Montreal! The food is wonderful to start. I got the Eggspectation crepe & it was cooked perfectly & tasted magnificent. What surprised me was how good the service was even on such a busy Saturday morning as it was when we went. I think this place deserves far more than five starts!

One of the best breakfasts I've ever had

Our breakfast food was ok... Nothing special. The service could have been better. Our host was not attentive, especially getting our food to us. It was not packed with people. Our food was sitting there on the counter for a while so by time he brought it, it was room temperature. I would not go back to visit. But that was my experience, hopefully someone else's will be better.

THIS became our place for breakfast during our week in downtown Montreal because you can't go wrong with anything on their menu & the menu is so diverse that we didn't have the same thing twice in three visits.

Mark, you deserve the world. 10/10 service, sir! You make this restaurant a 3 Michelin star experience, we love you. (Also the food was cream worthy). - The 3 girls in the corner booth.

The ambience was nice even though it was busy. The staff were very prompt & friendly. Our server spoke English & French. We had the All American & the Montrealer Omelette. Both were very good. One warning though, I'm not sure which part of the All American it was, but if you're lactose intolerant you might want to take a lactase pill just in case. I think the potatoes lyonnaise are pan fried in a lot of butter.

Déjeuner un midi. Le restaurant était plein, donc beaucoup de bruit. La présentation est belle, le service rapide & agréable. Les parts sont très généreuses. Attention c'est assez riche en gras. On n'a plus faim c'est sur. Par contre, on n'a jamais été resservi en eau alors qu'il faisait super chaud. Les pancakes étaient secs. Les toilettes sont propres. Il faut compter 20$ pour un plat en moyenne & après une boisson, on monte à 30$ par personne facilement.

Everything is a tad on the dry side. Fries, potatoes & particularly the pancakes. The rest was ok.

Pas mal de monde & d'attente avant d'être placé pour le brunch ! Une fois à table la magie opère, les serveurs sont très bien & les plats bons ! Coloriage & crayon offert pour occuper les enfants :)

Je me suis rendu un mardi matin lors de mes vacances à Montréal dans ce restaurant. J'avais déjà repéré leur carte qui compilait des classiques avec des touches d'originalité . Ma cible : leurs pancakes salés. Le service était très qualitatif, rapide, les serveurs sympathiques & le restaurant calme. Vous pouvez voir à la photo il y a de quoi manger ! & je suis un grand estomac ! Toutes les saveurs étaient présentes dans ce plat : le bacon, les pancakes, l'oeuf , les saucisses. C'était un très bon plat ! Aussi beau que bon ✨ je recommande ! 5/5
