I had such a great brunch experience at Fabergé! The food was delicious, & the service was warm & attentive.
As someone who needs gluten-free options (celiac), I really appreciated how accommodating the team was. Even though gluten-free choices aren't clearly highlighted on the menu, the staff were very knowledgeable & happy to guide me through safe options. They also made a point of cooking the bread separately, which made me feel genuinely safe & taken care of.
It's not always easy to find places where you can fully relax & enjoy your meal without worrying, but this was definitely one of them. I felt confident in what I was eating & was able to truly enjoy my brunch.
Highly recommend-especially if you're looking for a gluten-free friendly spot in Montreal!
Our favourite spot for brunch. Amazing staff who care about you & are attentive & kind. Wonderful affordable / yet delicious kids menu. Favourites for us vegetarians are avocado crush Benedict & the mushroom'rustic' Benedict. The potatoes are delicious! Enjoy!

Nous étions un groupe de 3 pour un brunch un mardi. Aucune attente, la majorité des tables étaient vides. Les banquettes sont confortables & pratiques pour y loger sacs/sacoches. Notre commande a été prise rapidement. Les boissons sont arrivées avant, & nos plats, pas longtemps après. Portion assez généreuse. Seul bémol : ma boisson chaude est venue dans un verre sans poignée & je me brûlais les doigts en prenant le verre. J'en ai fait part au serveur & il m'a proposé un napkin à servir comme manchon, car il n'y avait pas de tasse avec poignée (??). Une petite maladresse & j'aurais pu renverser ma boisson chaude sur moi. En général, la nourriture était bonne, le service était efficace & courtois.
Amazing brunch! I had the Benny Mac & it's probably one of the best Benedict's I've ever had. Our waitress was super fun & nice. (I don't remember her name, however I believe she was wearing a Simpsons'sugar daddy' shirt) which honestly just added such a nice comfortable vibe.
Très bon endroit de brunch, service rapide & bénédictines très bons, même si il manque d'options végétariennes. Le seul point négatif est les frais additionnels pour du lait végétal. Beaucoup de café & restaurant ont arrêté cette politique & nous attendons que le Fabergé fasse la même chose (les laits végétaux ne coûtent pas plus cher pour les restaurants) !
So I just order online uber because I like the potatoes so much & the egg Bennie.
Why 4 ⭐?not 5? My latte had coffee grounds all up on the foam & around it. So sorry but that's not nice it's a $6 drink please make it properly. Clean the grounds off the steamer off the entire machine & run water to clean the extractor. Food is good though!

Un peu confuse par la haute note de ce restaurant. Les prix sont extrêmement élevés pour la qualité de la nourriture… des patates déséchées, du sirop de poteau & pas d'érable, un milkshake à 12$ dans un tout petit verre… Mais ce qui me fait donner une note aussi basse & qui me fait prendre le temps d'écrire un avis Google est le service. Le serveur avait l'air d'être toujours dérangé par une demande aussi simple que « quand tu auras une minute je prendrais du ketchup s'il vous plaît », il a fallut demander pour des couteaux qui coupent pour les bénédictines & que dire des « ALLO? » impatients quand le serveur n'obtenait pas notre attention à la micro seconde où il tentait de l'avoir… Offrir un service comme ça à une table de serveurs, woups, nous aurions pu lui donner quelques conseils…
On a quest for a delightful breakfast experience, we stumbled upon this gem & were so impressed that we couldn't resist coming back the next day! Day 1: We started with Eggs Benedict, which were perfectly poached with a silky hollandaise sauce that melted in our mouths. The Montreal Breakfast Poutine was a revelation crispy potatoes, cheese curds, & savory gravy made for the ultimate comfort food. To top it off, the mimosa was refreshing & complemented the meal perfectly. Day 2: Equally excited, we returned the next morning to try more of their offerings. The Champion Omelette was fluffy, packed with fresh ingredients, & incredibly satisfying. The Massive Breakfast lived up to its name, offering a hearty plate that kept us full for hours. For drinks, the Espresso Martini was a bold & indulgent pick, while the coffee was a comforting classic. The service deserves special mention our server was incredibly friendly, attentive, & added warmth to our experience. The ambience was cozy & inviting, making it the perfect spot to start the day. This restaurant has earned a special place in our breakfast rotation. Highly recommend for anyone seeking great food, amazing service, & a delightful atmosphere!
Very good brunch. Great Benedict & solid atmosphere & service. I enjoyed the caramel latte & breakfast poutine as well, although I would order half the serving of poutine
C'était notre première expérience dans ce restaurant & notre verdict est simple : excellent service avec personnel aimable, délicieux cafés (particulièrement mon bol de bonheur, le mocha latté), nourriture imaginative &, surtout, savoureuse! Bref, nous y retournerons!

Got it! Here's the updated review: --- **Review: Faberge** Faberge truly lives up to its name with a menu that offers a delightful array of dishes, each bursting with unique & vibrant flavors. What sets this café apart is the South American touch on their dishes, adding an exotic twist to the dining experience. One standout feature is their use of real bagels from Fairmount, which not only enhances the taste but also supports neighboring businesses. The coffee here is just a plus. Whether you prefer a robust espresso, a creamy latte, or a frothy cappuccino, you can count on it being just right every time. The baristas understand the art of coffee-making, ensuring that each cup meets the highest standards, no matter your preference. Located in the heart of Montreal at 25 Fairmount Ave W, Faberge is the perfect spot for a weekend brunch. It truly encompasses what Montreal is all about - a blend of vibrant culture, a friendly atmosphere, & delicious food. If you're looking for a place that combines exceptional food with perfect coffee, Faberge is a must-visit.
Decide to retry this place, we went there twice in the past two weeks. First experience was good, we sat outside & the waiter was pleasant & service was good. Order Benedict, latte & drink. The coffee is not good, it's the beans they used. Expected better coffee for the price. Went back a second time, this time around we sat inside instead of waiting for a table outside. Service was worst than outside, the waiter didn't seem he wanted to be there, we had to request for water. Order the Benedict as well & it end up having egg shell in it. Retry the latte, still not great. Probably won't be back in the near future.
Food was ok. Latte was good. Black coffee was stale, hardly warm. Staffs were courteous. Now, the place gives a regular dinner vibe compared early years of their opening had a fun vibe. Most of the time, we end up making a U-turn because of parking availability & long line-up. Experience is not worth standing in line outside for more than 15 mins max.
Service & atmosphere are really great here. They were slammed at peak brunch hours & chewed through the line of people really quickly. The sweet items I tried were incredible. Their homemade strawberry jam, the cookie & cream latte & pancake from the Massif were so good. The savoury stuff was bland for my taste. The potatoes were cooked perfectly, crunchy but not seasoned. The sausage had a weird consistency & also didn't have much flavour to it. I came away a little disappointed. I would go back for their sweet dishes..

We had a fantastic meal at Fabergé. It was a Saturday early morning & not too packed yet, but it got progressively more busy. We ordered the fried chicken & waffles & mac'n cheese benny, & both were delicious & done perfectly. They have a small menu for kids, & the items there were perfectly portioned & unique (our eldest got a pancake "nest" with a fried egg cooked into it). Even the side of fruit we got our youngest had a great variety. Service was attentive & everyone who served us was friendly. Our food came fairly quickly, & they ensured our coffee & water was topped up. There was an ample amount of street parking available for the many eateries around. We were on our way to the Biodôme, & the restaurant was only about 15-20 min away.
Commandé une poutine déjeuner: sauce hollandaise inexistante (trop peu pour voir s'il y en avait ou non), vraiment pas assez de fromage (4-5 petits bouts)!! & honnêtement, goût décevant... manquait trop de sauce & de fromage pour que ce soit bon. Le latte goûtait l'horreur. Utilisez-vous du café filtre pour les lattes? Parce que c'était pas bon... Mais sinon, la madame du resto était gentille.
First time there & will definitely go back & try different things on the menu, everything looked so good. Place was packed, it was a sunday brunch so we expected a lineup outside but it wasn't too long of a wait outside. The servers were attentive, fast & efficient. I would recommend this place to anyone & families. I also loved the decor too, it felt nice & cozy type of ambiance!
The place was busy but we got seated pretty fast which was great. Our server was very attentive & patient. The place was cozy but offered plenty of seating. We ordered the breakfast poutine with fried chicken & the chicken & waffles. Their portions are big so I recommend ordering one dish for two people. The fried chicken was rather dry & it wasn't packed with flavour as I hoped it would be. The waffles were good. They were soft & slightly sweet. The breakfast poutine had poached egg with hollandaise sauce which was perfectly cooked & delicious. Their homemade fries were crispy. Definitely the highlight of this dish
Hyper cool, hyper rapide, hyper bon. Contrairement aux autres brunchs à la mode, où ou on te fait attendre des heures, ici c'est rapide. Carte très sympa, vraiment très bon ! Merci 😊
