Indeed the pancakes were very nice, I tried some of my girlfriends.
I had a breakfast burrito, which was pretty good. With the addition of bacon.
Good coffee.
I liked the music when we were there, some decent hip hop.
Not to everyone's taste though

Tasty brunch food in an eclectic vibe setting. The breakfast burrito might be the best I've ever had; others I've had were bland. This one adds a deliciously flavorful salsa inside with beans & avocado. Good to the last bite! The Bloody Caesar was a first for me…like a lightened Bloody Mary & perfect on a hot summer day. The staff were friendly. I went here twice in two days & would come back again.

I was cruelly hungover. Their breakfast sandwich fixed me right up. An undercover gem.

Stopped in a Saturday morning as a 5. The place was busy but we were greeted by a friendly tattooed man who said we could wait for a table or order & take away to their patio (deck on street). We were on our way to Formula 1 Race & chose the latter. He brought our coffee & juice drinks out & called our name for the rest. We had sausage, egg & cheese on muffins & homefries (deep fried chunks, yummy). Satisfying breakfast all around. Enjoy!

I stopped by yesterday with a couple friends for the first time. Had a cappuccino & a breakfast sandwich. Coffee was excellent, & the breakfast sandwich (english muffin, cheese, sausage, egg) was out of this world! They make their own english muffins from scratch! So delicious. The atmosphere was retro 90s & 80s & such a comfortable vibe that I wanted to sit there all day. We were served by Connor & he was awesome. I'll be BACK!

Stayed nearby on a 3-day trip & made sure to stop here every day we were in town. Incredible sandwiches, especially the breakfast sandwich on a house-made English muffin. The service was excellent, especially given my poor French. & the vibes of this place are immaculate. Loved seeing the retro cartoons on the projector, & all the decor was whimsical & just awesome. Will definitely be back any time I'm in Montréal!
