Un superbe brunch chez Janine à Montréal ! Le service était chaleureux & attentionné du début à la fin. L'oeuf écossais était particulièrement réussi : parfaitement croustillant à l'extérieur & bien savoureux à l'intérieur, un vrai coup de coeur. La toast aux champignons mérite aussi une mention spéciale - riche, parfumée & très bien exécutée.
Seul petit bémol : le grilled cheese, dont les saveurs m'ont paru un peu ordinaires. Rien de mauvais, mais moins mémorable.
Dans l'ensemble, une excellente adresse pour un brunch gourmand.
Short walk away from a popular yoga studio. Popular brunch spot which can get crowded over the weekends. Got the Champi because of the mushrooms. Was surprised by the cocktail shot of the day. Good service!

Everything is top-notch. The food quality is among the best, & the portions are generous, though a bit pricey.
The ambiance & décor are amazing.
However, the waiting time was a bit unreasonable, & we ended up sitting at the bar since it was cold to stay outside too long (not very ideal for winter visits!).
Hands down the best brunch i've ever had in MTL. Not cheap but worth it - the beverages are fantastic, & the oeuf & boeuf is simply phenomenal. The latkes & pulled ham are also wonderful. Glad to have such a high quality establishment on Wellington.
Mon Janine café-brunch, je l'ai tatoué sur le coeur! Nourriture & breuvage exceptionnel! Ambiance terriblement chaleureuse, aux même titre que le personnel y travaillant! Clairement mon restaurant favori de Verdun pour bien manger & passer un beau moment!
Fantastic breakfast/brunch spot. The avocado toast with an egg was fantastic & the cinnamon roll with chocolate sauce was divine. We had excellent service & we were glad to be able to relax & chat for a calm morning in Montreal.
Such a wonderful spot for brunch!
The room was thoughtfully decorated, the service was warm with a smile each visit to our table & the dishes were artfully presented sand delicious! I don't think you could go wrong with any of the features!

Food is good but not wow. Service was nice & quick. French toast tasted more like banana bread. Good but was surprised by this mushy texture. Herbs & pickles that came with the latkes were really good & balanced out the saltiness of the salmon & latkes. Come early to avoid queues.
Le service, il était une fille pour 8 tables ou plus. On attendu plus de 50 min pour avoir nos repas.
La cuisine bonne, mais les repas ont arrivés tièdes.
La deco très jolie.
We stopped for breakfast after a doctor's appointment & really enjoyed it! The place was cozy, the food was tasty, & it was so nice to share it with my lovely friend.
The service was amazing… Such a warm & welcoming atmosphere. A big thank you to our server Hamza, who was attentive & very professional. I highly recommend this place!
