Review Summary

Ginkgo Café Bar is widely appreciated for its beautiful, sunlit atmosphere and flavorful menu, particularly its popular brunch items like pancakes, poutine, and unique egg dishes. While many guests enjoy the cozy, aesthetic vibe and find the food delicious and generous in portion, experiences remain inconsistent due to fluctuating service standards. Common feedback highlights the need for better staff coordination, cleaner dining areas, and more consistent attention to detail regarding menu accuracy and service timing. Despite some mixed feelings regarding pricing and occasional lapses in professionalism, many visitors find it a convenient and enjoyable spot for a casual coffee, meal, or happy hour, especially given its location.

Mandated 30% gratuity & cut us off 90 minutes of bottomless mimosas 20 minutes early. Mimosas were watered down halfway through as well. Scam.

Even though I found the bottom of my bottomless mimosa several times the food was fantastic, guacamole out this world, would recommend 11/10

I would say my experience wasn't very good. It's a bottomless mimosa place, but I didn't like that my drinks were tasteless & seemed watered down. The food wasn't bad, & I liked the atmosphere & the high ceilings. Maybe one day I'll give it a try again & hopefully they change their way of serving drinks.

Was pretty excited to come here but was let down by the quality. My friends & I came here for brunch. We got the bottomless mimosas for $30 per person. Was a bit disappointed because each refill we got was less strong than the one we got before. On our 3rd refill, the mimosas just tasted like orange juice. Definitely recommend getting the smoked salmon benedict over the meat lover benedict. As it was just felt like random meats all put together. Personally I would say this is a pretty average brunch spot, definitely think there are better ones.

Amazing! 11/10 Went for brunch & bottomless mimosas on a Friday. I think it's the cheapest bottomless mimosa deal you'll find in Montreal ($20 for 1.5 hrs) & they're not super cheap about it either (you can still taste the sparkling wine). My friends & I went on my birthday & the server was super kind & reliable. They have the bottomless mimosa deal all summer as opposed to just on the weekend like most places. Will go again for sure!

The service was epic!! Vincent made sure that our Mimosas were bottomless until we left. All in all, his service was exemplary, if Ginkgo management is reading this, please give the man a raise!!! Would totally recommend this place..

Im getting a lil picky, is cause at any any other brunch place they serve you brunch with coffee, sorry but that’s average brunch experience. Here we never received even water, I asked about the bottomless mimosas they say that better not cause yeah the brunch would be over in 30 min but dude can I at least after paying 25 dollars get a a glass of water? I’m drying out like Patrick & Sponge Bob at Arenitas house. Worst thing the waiter stand right beside me to look how much tip I was going to leave him. Excuse me? That’s very rude, it’s like observing another person’s wallet with too much interest. Them eggs were good tho.

The service was so slow. We ordered bottomless mimosas & instead of just leaving the bottle on the table we had to wait 20-25 minutes for each refill. Mind you bottomless mimosas have a time limit of an hour & a half. The food was fine but my friend received an omelette when she didn't ask for one & another friend was also given a different meal than what she ordered. Shots also took about 20 minutes to be brought to table. We actually had to ask for them
