Les visiteurs décrivent La Base Café Buvette comme un endroit cosy et accueillant avec une ambiance superbe, un excellent café et des pâtisseries délicieuses, et une carte qui va des croques au fromage grillés créatifs aux options brunch; le personnel est constamment salué pour sa convivialité, son attention et son service professionnel, et l'atmosphère est chaleureuse avec une terrasse arrière propice à la détente; l'expérience est largement considérée comme un coup de coeur de quartier et beaucoup envisagent d'y revenir bientôt; quelques notes mentionnent des plats un peu salés ou trop cuits, des soucis occasionnels de timing ou de service, et parfois des tailles de boisson ou des prix qui ne semblent pas tout à fait alignés.
We were a group of 4 that arrived on Sunday early morning before the brunch rush. There were two other tables (group of 3 & 2) occupied at the time we arrived. The place is very small & their kitchen is part of the dining room so you can see all the action. They had two (?) portable induction hot plates & a tiny microwave & the smallest deep fryer.
The server was very nice & friendly but nonetheless it was hard to get his attention & overall service was very very slow. We arrived at 915am, got our coffees at 9:39am & we placed our food then. Food arrive between 10:18am - 10:21am. As mentioned, their kitchen is very small & there was only one cook. I don't know if they were understaffed or if this is the norm but 40mins to receive brunch food when we planned to beat Sunday brunch rush isn't exactly what we were expecting.
The long wait didn't help the fact tha we were seated in the back corner with a bench (for two), a bucket style chair & a backless metal stool which was very uncomfortable & much taller than the table, which added to the discomfort.
Food & drinks were good, nothing to complain there. I requested over medium eggs (they said they don't poach but rather fry the eggs), but my dish came with fully cooked eggs. I didn't ask them to remake them knowing it will be a while before my dish would be returned to me.
If I were to return, I'd order in advance & opt to so take out instead of dining in.
Super petit resto de quarter. Belle selection de plat pour le brunch, concentrés sur les produits locaux. Le personnel est très sympathique & attentionné. Les café glaces sont vraiment excellents & les grilles cheeses sont absolument décadent!! À essayer!!
La bouffe dej est excellente, les prix sont super raisonnables pour la qualité (ce qui devient rare à Montréal), & l'endroit est toujours propre & chaleureux. Le proprio est vraiment sympathique, on sent qu'il est passionné. Ils ont aussi une super belle sélection de vins pour les sunset . Que ce soit pour un brunch tranquille ou un verre le soi
Went for a coffee to-go & ended up staying for the grilled cheese. Both the coffee & the grilled cheese were delicious, & we enjoyed them on the terrace at the back on a nice sunny morning. The staff is very friendly & knowledgeable & the service was excellent. Can't wait to come back on a weekend to try their brunch menu!
Je suis allée bruncher avec une amie ce matin & on a vraiment aimé l'ambiance, la bouffe & le service! On a pris les pancakes & grilled cheese, délicieux :)
Très sympa, j'y retournerai pour essayer le reste!
Belle petite place pour un brunch ou prendre un café/thé & bouchée. Il y a une terrasse à l'arrière, presque comme une surprise cachée. Le personnel est courtois, le patron est sympa. Il y a des options qui sortent un peu de l'ordinaire comme le déjeuner égyptien avec du fromage halloumi & une sauce tomatée très umami, j'aurais voulu plus de pain pour manger le tout, mais au final j'ai pris des frites de l'assiette brunch plus classique avec une excellente omelette fromagée. Les prix sont raisonnables pour les déjeuners-brunch. Une adresse de quartier à encourager!
Wow, wow, wow! 🤩 This is an amazing gem of a brunch spot! The cheese & ham omelette was delicious, as were the fresh fruit (that all tasted bio), the toast & the perfectly crisp bacon. Lastly, the homemade berry jam? Get ready to be dazzled! Highly recommend & will be back. 10/10

A lot of small things that added up to a very good first visit for me. First off, a good way of making people feel welcome is by simply making it easier for everyone to get inside. A ramp is appreciated by people like me who are even just a bit mobility impaired, & I saw some older folks using the button to open the door. But the food! It was excellent, with lots of little touches that took things to the next level. A reminder that things don't have to be heavy-handed to be good. In fact, subtlety can be a bit of a relief. Very pleased with my Japanese pancakes, which had lots of fruit & reminded me of the sweet, biscuit-y shortcakes I made with my mom as a kid. A little touch of orange somewhere in the dish-maybe in the whipped cream? London Fog was notably delicious, not too sweet, with just a bit of vanilla in the foam to take it to the next level. My compatriot's eggs & bacon were good, too, in both big & small ways-home fries delicious & well-seasoned (not just deep-fried), toast used a good bread, bacon was good quality & cooked well...I mean, how often is your little side of mayo so tasty that you feel compelled to offer someone else a taste? Brunch appears to be available on Saturday & Sundays, with breakfast until 11am other days. I will definitely be back, & just not for morning fare, however. They appear to have a Lebanese beer?
I've visited this lovely cafe a few times to grab a coffee & a pastel de nata after leaving the gym but I just stopped in for brunch on their beautiful patio (heated!) & this has moved up in my ranks of Verdun cafes. I had the toast Beyrouth with a flat white (all coffees were $2 that Saturday afternoon for some reason - I wasn't complaining hehe) & it was so beautiful & delicious. It was the perfect amount of food since I wasn't super hungry so if you are craving more I'd order an additional dish or one of their grilled cheeses. I grabbed a slice of their pumpkin cardamom tart to enjoy at home & it was so flavorful - highly recommend their desserts & pastries. Super excited to come back & try more of their menu, especially during the evening.
This cozy little restaurant off the beaten path (surrounded by construction) was unknown to me just a couple of days ago. In an effort to avoid going to the same places, a friend & I visited this establishment for brunch. The Cubano burger was so juicy & delicious that I’m salivating just thinking about it. Also, I’m not generally a fan of French fries, but these were oven baked with the perfect amount of crispiness. The dessert was some kind of homemade thick pancake that was again out of this world. If you’re tired of going to the same place, check out this amazing place with outstanding food & service!
