Highly overrated. The food is délicieuse. But that s about it. The worst coffee in my life. I had a cappuccino, changed for a regular Coffee Just to realize the Coffee is bad. The older server was rude. The only reason not only one star for service because all the Others are very friendly. Atmosphere ist ok, but the pictures look much nicer than in reality. So, it is a No Go.

Le Café Big Trouble sur la rue Saint-Denis à Montréal est une véritable pépite cachée, un endroit que j'adore fréquenter dès que je passe dans le Quartier Latin. Situé au 2054, un peu en hauteur (« up the stairs » comme ils disent), ce café est devenu ma destination préférée pour un brunch réconfortant ou un simple café dans une ambiance chaleureuse & verdoyante.
Ce qui me charme à chaque visite, c'est l'atmosphère cosy & pleine de vie : des plantes partout, une déco colorée & fun, une lumière douce qui invite à s'installer longtemps. On s'y sent tout de suite bien, comme dans un petit oasis au milieu de l'effervescence de la rue Saint-Denis. Le café est excellent - lattés parfaits, matcha onctueux, sourcing local - & les pâtisseries maison (sourdough, viennoiseries) sont à tomber. Côté nourriture, le menu brunch est généreux & délicieux : pancakes moelleux aux bleuets, burritos copieux, avocado toast créatif, sandwichs déjeuner gourmands… Tout est frais, savoureux, avec des options véganes bien pensées & des portions qui calnent sans alourdir.
Le personnel est un vrai atout : toujours souriant, accueillant, attentif, prêt à discuter ou à recommander. L'ambiance est détendue, parfaite pour travailler un peu, lire ou simplement profiter. C'est l'endroit idéal pour commencer la journée en douceur ou faire une pause réconfortante dans ce quartier animé.
Pour moi, Le Café Big Trouble incarne le meilleur du café montréalais : qualitatif, convivial, avec une touche d'originalité qui fait toute la différence. Si vous cherchez un spot brunch authentique & chaleureux, foncez sans hésiter ! Cinq étoiles amplement méritées, & un grand merci à l'équipe pour ces moments de pur bonheur. 🌿

Hands down the best food I've eaten at a cafe in the last few years 🙏 I returned several times over the week to sample multiple menu items including pancakes, Lox platter, breakfast burrito, grilled cheese, & chicken sando.
The Lox platter was a very generous serving & great flavour in the latkes, the pancakes were decadent, the burrito was a surprisingly amazing combination of flavours, & the chicken sando hands down the best meal with the homemade cesar dressing.
They serve perfectly balanced Cortado's & their filter coffee was very refreshing.
When I return to Montreal this will be the first place I return to!

The pancakes were delicious, & the avocado toast had a generous amount of avocado, although it was a bit over seasoned with salt & pepper.

Une belle petite découverte pour ne pas dire un petit bijoux montréalais! Le café est super cute, le service est bilingue & chaleureux. Mais que dire de la nourriture, des plats d'une allure simple, mais goûteux & surtout fait avec amour on le ressent. De bonnes portions, de la nourriture qualité & du plaisir en bouche! Un café à ne pas manquer qui a l'air de rien, mais qui vous laissera de bons souvenirs en bouche! Merci au personnel c'était très bon!

Very cool. We had no idea of what to expect but it was just fantastic! The staff was fun & laid back at the same time. The one server created such a fun vibe with her singing & getting into the music that I found myself singing along. Very cool. & the pancakes -- incredibly delicious!

My friends & I went to eat brunch at Le big trouble today & we had such a great time!
The food is insane & very fairly priced! The staff is so kind & we loved the whimsical decor! I got the Caesar chicken sandwich with extra breakfast potatoes on the side & it was marvelous! It was made with two very crispy chicken cutlets & a big helping of Caesar salad with parmesan & tomatoes between two soft pieces of focaccia! I have a big appetite but my meal could have easily fed two people!
It is also a very nice study spot during the week & so convenient considering how close it is to downtown & berri uqam!
Would definitely come again!

Visited Montreal for Thanksgiving & woke up craving a solid brunch the next day. Ended up at Le Café Big Trouble, & it hit the spot. They had Sailor Moon playing in the background, the vibe was chill, & the whole place just felt like my kind of spot. Perfect for grabbing a quick bite & just hanging out for a bit. Definitely recommending it!

I'm a regular customer one time every week I take a coffee & read & actually I like the terrace to do that plan, this week I asked for a burrito which was a greatest option for a good breakfast. Their americano is amazing & there's a raspberry & lemon muffin that is wonderful.

Reeeeeeally pricy for what they offer, at least it's good, but there's plenty of other brunch spots that offer the same price for more food//better quality😉
