Our goal is to maintain the highest possible standards of food quality and service in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. From breakfast to lunch to dinner, with family or friends, our wish is to make your visit an exceptional experience. We only take two things seriously: our food and service! You'll have a tough time choosing between our exclusive dishes: crepes, soups, salads, omelettes, pasta, steak, chicken, seafood, sandwiches, or our famous Eggs Benedict and fresh squeezed orange juice!

At Eggspectation, we give you plenty of space in a warm and a welcoming ambiance, and you are always comfortably seated. Our upscale interior decor includes colourful murals, rustic cement columns, stone and brick walls, and an open kitchen. Private meeting rooms featuring a flat-screen TV and Wi-Fi are available in some restaurants. Three qualities are essential to work at Eggspectation: you must be energetic, friendly and well trained. We are proud of our team, who treat our customers the way they would a guest in their own home—so your visit to Eggspectation is a pure joy.

The quickest, yet best breakfast! Ranjan seated us as quickly as we had opened the door & was multi tasking like I've never seen before! Attentive, yet not hovering. Great way to start the day! Breakfast tacos were delish. Crabs benny, too!
Me & my husband visited this location twice & we enjoyed our experience both times. The servers are warm, friendly & welcoming. Rubel was an awesome server & we really enjoyed his service! Despite being busy, the food arrived quickly. Highly recommend this place 👍
First time & I'm pleasantly surprised. Great food, big portions, amazing Mocha. Very quick service as well. Our server Rubel was very kind & attentive.
Amazing spot to come for brunch. Albert our server was very friendly & quick with his service, always coming around with water & making sure we were all good. Absolutely recommend for anyone looking for a big breakfast that will fill you up & make you satisfied!

We just arrived in Mtl this morning & needed breakfast. After a quick search we decided to try Eggspectation. Its interior is very cool, with another level upstairs. We were greeted very politely. Our server was fantastic, checking back with us just enough. The food came out super fast, portions were big, & food was tasty. Definitely worth going, we'd go back without question. Only thing I was I remembered to take some photos to shared.

Quick genuinely friendly service. We were pleasantly surprised by the high quality food & service at this inner city location. Very good coffee drinks - & we are not easy to please when it comes to coffee! Just a block from our hotel. No wait at 8:00 am on a Sunday. Everyone we met was very pleasant. 10/10. Thank you to our server Rubel.
