Eggspectation Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
BreakfastCrêpesSandwichesBurgersPastaBrunch
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! Freshly prepared with high-quality ingredients and attractively presented, our menu only has one flaw: you could eat too much! Who says you should be crowded in a restaurant? 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.

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.

I love Eggspectation, it's one of my favorite breakfast restaurants that I visit when I come to Montreal. Today my waiter, Rubel, was awesome! He was kind, quick & very polite. I hope to see him again when I visit Montreal next.

I came here the other day with my husband, the food was lovely, there was a variety to choose from & it came quick. The service was very good, my server was super nice & made sure that I was taken care of. However, I was sat next to the kitchen & I noticed that there was a lot of passive aggressiveness coming from someone who I assume was the manager (he was in all black, no uniform) towards the servers who were obviously trying their best & that he wasn't very good under pressure. I understand that the service industry is very rigorous but it was very discouraging to see & hear &, in my opinion, very unprofessional.

Very quickly seated, the food came out very fast as well. A little narrow when going down to the stairs to the bathroom.
