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.

Nous sommes au Gingko tous les soirs après les cours entre amis, & on s'en lasse pas ! Le staff est adorable (shout out à Renaud & Badder) & le service est efficace. C'est toujours une ambiance géniale, on n'est jamais déçus, meilleure place pour décompresser !

Food was just alright, probably not my taste.

Service was really meh, staff members had a cold face & not really attentive (just socializing with their friends). I felt as if I was bothering them even if I was a paying customer.....

There's competition everywhere around campus & the hospital, I probably won't go back here anymore..

It's a really cool place, it needs some refresh & clean up (like the plates stuck to the wall art, old plastic plants & some curtains for the sun missing...) but the vibe is nice & the staff is great, very helpful & kind. The food is delicious. Totally recommend it.

The place is nice & well-lit, but poorly maintained. The tables & chairs look somewhat old & dirty. The food is average, nothing remarkable. I asked the lady at the next table for the Heinz ketchup because the one on my table was from a lower-quality brand. The service is slow & disappointing. In summary: good location & space, average service & food, & it needs some maintenance.
