Daily fresh bread (homemade!), soups, salads, light meals, sweets and a fine selection of wines, beers, cocktails.
Le Butterblume is described as bright and lively with a seasonal menu and a standout brunch that draws a crowd. Many reviews praise the use of high end ingredients, the beautiful presentation of dishes like ravioli and brioche, and the open kitchen with attentive service. There are remarks about portions varying, with some brunch portions being generous and others noting that certain dishes like gnocchi can feel heavy or that some smaller plates leave you wanting more. Prices are often described as high and sometimes not worth the value given the portion sizes, with some diners leaving satisfied and others disappointed. Noise level is frequently noted as high when the place is busy, though the atmosphere is described as warm and convivial with friendly staff. The brunch and seasonal ingredients receive many positive notes, with compliments on coffee, bread, and creative combinations, while a few critics feel certain flavors lack balance or fail to rise above home cooking. Overall, impressions range from solid to exceptional, highlighting strong service and a vibrant setting while acknowledging room for refinement in flavor balance and pricing.
Pas ébloui par la place. Je n'ai pas compris l'engouement de mes amis à venir là. Très bruyant, bon plat mais cher pour le peu de quantité, service pas si nice où on semble vous mettre dehors le plus tôt possible, pas de formule brunch pour avoir au moins un café inclus. Venu pour le brunch, je reviendrai pas.
Butterblum is simply one of our favorite brunch spots. It has become our go-to place whenever we're craving a great brunch.
The menu is fantastic, the staff is always lovely, & the ambience is warm & inviting. There's so much creativity packed into this little place, which makes every visit feel special.
We've been going so often that the staff & even the chef now recognize us, which makes the experience feel even more welcoming. We absolutely adore this place & always look forward to coming back.
Décevant, la nourriture est parfois bonne parfois vraiment banale, & chère en plus. Plus ils acceptent des réservations toutes les heures & ne l'affichent lors de la réservation résultat : un brunch écourté (1h15 à peine pour se poser, commander, manger, payer & se faire gentiment dirigée vers la sortie) de plus service désagréable la serveuse est venue plusieurs fois nous demander si nous étions prêts à commander alors que nous avions à peine eu le temps de prendre connaissance de la carte & nous a bien fait comprendre qu'il fallait qu'on se dépêche avec un service pressé & pas du tout convivial. Nous ne recommandons absolument pas !
The menu isn't huge, but you don't need it to be. The brunch is absolutely incredible. The flavours are all there, the textures, everything! The coffee was also surprisingly good. Don't be fooled though, it's a lot of food, so come hungry.
Vraiment une belle découverte. Les brunchs étaient à la fois originaux & bien exécutés. Les produits sont de qualités & excellents. Super service. Espace spacieux Vraiment, mon seul bémol, c'est que j'aurais prit in plus gros café!!
Lovely brunch spot with delicious mushroom toast! Seasonal menu so loads of fresh local ingredients in the summer & lots of squash in fall. Their bread is delicious! It is bright & good for a group since they take reservations.
The blandest brunch I ve had in Montreal. One would have to TRY to make a couscous that tasteless with a bland chicken to boot. The menu descriptions grossly over-frill the basic dishes we got.
Overpriced & overhyped.

Le meilleur brunch à Montréal! 🤩
Chaque assiette reflète tout le travail qui a été fait avant d'arriver à la table, avec des combinaisons tout simplement délicieuses. En plus, le service est merveilleux, une équipe super attentionnée qui contribue à créer une ambiance chaleureuse.
The food was really good but the portions really small. I usually can never finish a meal, especially brunch. I finished this quickly & easily but was still hungry. Coffee was really good.

Start your morning on a decadent note: pillowy blini layered with tarragon-infused salmon rillettes, topped with a luscious soy-marinated egg. Crisp iceberg lettuce, tangy pickled cucumber, & a silky romaine cream bring freshness to every bite, a brunch that balances comfort, elegance, & pure indulgence. 😊
Déjà, il faut dire que le personnel est ultra sympa! Le lieu est poussette & baby friendly (aucune marche à l'entrée, rampe d'accès à l'intérieur, table à langer). Il y a beaucoup d'ambiance mais c'est donc très bruyant.
Point de vue nourriture, il y a une toute petite sélection pour le brunch (un burger & un smoothie). Ne voulant pas de viande, je me suis rabattue sur le smoothie bol qui était délicieux mais vraiment tout petit & cher pour la quantité.
I really enjoyed brunch here. They had unique offerings on the menu (we tried the breakfast hot dog!), the coffee was great & the atmosphere was welcoming & relaxed.
On a adoré bruncher chez vous! Le plat d'oeufs à la turc qu'on a commandé était tout simplement divin. Très belle atmosphère kid friendly! Merci à notre serveuse pour la belle petite attention pour l'anniversaire de notre petite. J'espère que tu te reconnaîtra & bonne fête à toi 🫶🏽
