There's so much to say about this place but I'll keep it short. First the service, its friendly, fast & maintains then ambiance they are curating for themselves (love it). Talking about ambiance I must say that it hit the spot for me, chique modest decor that adds character to the place, old style music that makes you feel peaceful, cheery & warm all at once. The food was quite good (egg benedict with duck), the texture of the ingredient is what you would expect from fresh ingredients, the flavors are well balanced, the drink menu has all the classics one would hope to have for brunch(the mimosas we're spot on & the expresso martini felt quite good). They got the five star not only from what I mentionned but the small details(you are greeted with fresh juice on the house, the staff made sure I was enjoying myself through out & then even let me stay after closure to finish my drink) I will be going back with friends to try out the rest of the menu. It was a great experience, big thank you to the staff !
I have a few comments about the food, but I
Would firstly like to comment on the EXCEPTIONAL service & atmosphere. We went early on a Sunday, around 10am, so we fortunately didn't have to wait to be seated! I really appreciated that they had ample staff to accommodate the high volume of clientele. Once we were seated we were given a shot glass of the juice of the day (Basil, mango orange juice) which was delicious. Our server Janique was cheery & helpful, she was attentive & we never had to waive her down. It was an absolute pleasure to be served by her, & the manager (a young man), was very present on the floor lending additional support to his servers, & had also cleared our table at one a point, & was very kind.
The food came moments after we ordered which was great. We ordered the Boeuf & Oeuf, which said on the menu that it came with smashed potatoes & an English muffin (it was an eggs Benedict dish). I suppose there was maybe an issue with translation from French to English on the menu regarding potatoes, but smashed potatoes are different than mashed potatoes, & the dish came with MASHED potatoes. The English muffin was served ON TOP of the mashed potatoes, topped with the poached egg & pulled beef. I found it strange, that instead of the English muffin being sliced, it was two whole English muffin buns 🤔 I don't know if it was ever toasted, but it was soggy, & being on top of mashed potatoes, I found it a really interesting combination, of mushy textures & nothing to break it up. I expected crispy SMASHED potatoes.
The other item we ordered was the fried chicken sandwich, it was ok, the chicken was a little over cooked, & I had a hard time detecting the harissa in the mayo.
The restaurant itself is decorated beautifully, has a great ambiance & feels very well maintained & clean. I was very impressed by the service & the restaurant itself, less by the food. Maybe it was just an off day in the kitchen!

If you're a fan of savory brunch, this spot is a must-try. We ordered a mix of dishes & everything hit. The eggs were perfectly cooked with that ideal yolk, adding richness to every bite. The fried chicken sandwich was a standout - crispy, flavorful, & finished with the perfect spice kick.
The pulled pork dish really surprised us with its balance of sweet & salty, making it both comforting & unique. & the scotch eggs were cooked perfectly, with a crisp exterior & a soft, jammy center.
Everything felt thoughtfully made & well executed. A great spot for a satisfying, elevated brunch experience.
Got the Champi with scotch egg which was good. The scotch egg is covered in chorizo which gives it more flavour than normal scotch eggs. The Champi was good as well but it is essentially just cheese toast with some sautéed mushrooms & pepper sauce. They also had a Cabane a sucre dish on the menu for the season which was good but not amazing. Overall, a Pretty good breakfast but it is still just a breakfast place. The juice shots were also quite good. I would get a juice next time.
Had Champi, eggs, mushrooms on a bread with cheese, mashed potatoes, yummy, with pear blueberry mimosa 😋🤠 great service, liked the decor🤩
Another great brunch, avocado toast & salmon, delicious 😋
Tried the fried chicken with hot mayo sauce, it's delicious 😋
I tried the CHAMPI… 🍄🥪, & it was delicious! 😋 The mushrooms 🍄, toast 🍞, & sauce 🥣 were amazing 😍. I'm not usually a fan of the eggs 🥚, but I tried them & they tasted good 👍.
The mashed potatoes 🥔 were good, but they would've been perfect 😋 with a bit of butter 🧈, pepper 🌶?, & a little more milk 🥛. They were a bit dry 😅-would be so much tastier!
The cappuccino ☕ was okay, the grapefruit juice 🍊 was fine, but the service 👩?🍳 & the ambiance 🎶 were really great.
Overall, 10/10 💯, definitely worth five stars ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?!
Welcome drink
Since the dining area is small so there must be a queue outside but it is worth. Beautiful decoration excellent service. They come with a welcome drink, lovely! 👍
🔹Le petit plateau ~ love their sauce but the scone is a bit hard
🔹Vanilla hot white chocolate ~ a bit too sweet
🔹Banana french toast ~ dish decorate is great
🔹Today Special goose ~ just so so
🔹Fried chicken sandwich ~ Taste good but not the outlook
🔹Mushroom toast with a scotch egg ~ the toast is too hard, mushroom taste great. Scotch egg is an art.
The'latkes' were excellent - perfectly crispy on the outside, & as you keep eating, the subtle sweetness of the yellow beets comes through beautifully with the potatoes. The toppings were very well balanced: crunchy pickled onions, a softly cooked egg, & a small slice of tender smoked salmon. Great texture, lots of layers, & very satisfying without feeling heavy.
L'Oeuf Écossais was beautifully done. The soft-boiled egg was cooked perfectly, with a rich, creamy yolk. The outer layer was crispy but not greasy, with a very satisfying, substantial bite. Great contrast of textures & a simple dish executed really well.
