Le Déjeuner Cosmopolitain draws praise for generous portions, efficient service, and a warm, convivial ambience. Reviewers highlight friendly staff who know the menu, strong coffee and sizable lattes, and dishes that are well presented with good flavor and variety. Breakfast options are described as reliable, with standout eggs and omelette dishes, while a few notes point to occasional oversalted plates, overcooked Hollandaise, or longer waits during busy periods. The location offers a welcoming vibe with terrace seating and a generally lively yet not overly loud atmosphere. A rare negative experience mentions a reservation issue and a management moment that overshadowed a family celebration due to how children were treated. Overall, impressions are positive with many intending to return and recommend this as a top breakfast spot in Montreal, though a handful of visits experienced inconsistency or kitchen delays.
My husband ate there this morning & was greeted by the chef first, then served by Jessica. He says they are both so friendly & welcoming!! He had a delicious breakfast with his favourite, their mashed breakfast potatoes!! If you haven't tried them, you HAVE to! Jessica stopped by often to make sure everything was okay & offer more coffee ☕? Great job Jessica! From Dave
This is one of the best breakfast restaurants i have had in a long time. Food is fresh, wholesome, & tasty. Service is alot better than many other breakfast places i have been. Atmosphere feels great with great attentive staff. Cost is very decent & affordable.

If you're coming for the regular breakfast menu, it will be average food, other signature dishes 8/10. I got the Philly eggs Benedict which was a good amount. The waiter was welcoming & kind as well.
We been going there for a while, waiters are awesome, place looks formidable, but they seem to have had a problem on the kitchen side. Last 2 times we went there, we were disapointed. My Eggs were tiny, the yellow was cooked hard, toast were stone cold, 1 slice of beacon & about 3 man fingers worth of potato, i usually would eat to my hunger there but that day, i could have ate 3 plates like that. My daughter took the strawberry pancake, there were about as stiff as aged tortillas, it would literally crack when she tried to cut it & well, not that good. i know it was clearly wrong when the waiters visibly was uncomfortable to give us our plate, so she knew. We left the restaurant & went home to eat again cause, we both were hungry! we always been fair tipper & we are quiet client, we know what we want. It will be a while before we go there again, i mean, the point of going to a restaurant is to skip cooking & eat greatly, both of which were a massive fail. It is very unfortunate because we liked this restaurant so much, we would go there even if we live in Montreal now! So we are now on the hunt to find our new favorite breakfast place! any suggestions are welcome!
This is my favorite 😍 breakfast place. The food & service are exceptional . My waiter Dario is always quick, professional & soo polite. You really feel like he takes care of you. Thank you & I will be coming back & brining friends & family
I believe this is of the best breakfast place (Est end Montreal).Very big portions & very good quality. Asian waitress served me with excellence service.Will be coming back.
I had breakfast at this location recently & it was very good. It was crêpe with hollandaise sauce, with some orange juice to drink, I believe. The waitress was friendly. The food was excellent. & I loved that there was sports (TSN) playing on the TV as well. Because breakfast food & sports make a great duo, that is for sure!

Finally a lovely breakfast/brunch restaurant that understands quality service, attention to food freshness & presentation & most of all a chef who knows how to prepare a soft boiled egg to perfection.
I didn't have to wait more than 2 minutes to get a table for a part of 5, service was super fast but yet polite. Food was good & I feel that the price quality rate is above other restaurants. I highly recommend this restaurant that has brought the two most simple things that other breakfast restaurants forgot. Efficiency & quality
For me, it's the best place I've ever had breakfast in Montreal. I've already visited several others, like Cora & Allo Mon Coco. The waiters are very calm & not stressed, the dish presentation was really nice, & the fruits were super fresh & generous. I loved it!
Great breakfast! Everything was super delicious, & the Hollandaise sauce for the Benedicts was flavourful. Awesome service.
A couple of the booths need strengthening (you can feel all movements from people sitting in the adjacent booth). Washrooms need a serious scrub down (toilet bowls)...

Best breakfast ever! I order a waffle & it was the best waffle I've ever had! It was such a cute restaurant & our server was so amazing & friendly! Favourite breakfast spot & you get so much food! Definitely recommend!
I never been served with such care by a restaurant before ! I'm a nurse who had a really long night shift & asked for a extra I couldn't find but would have paid normally....they gived me my extra & even added a sweet note 🥺 10/10 & the taste god better then the popular "eoufri..." place I wouldn't name it whole ! You already know ;) so yeah one of the best breakfast poutine I had by far !!!
Absolutely awful. Don't go here. I gave them two chances & am totally unimpressed. I love & continue to frequent the west's island location, but live in the east, so was excited to have a Cosmopolitain closer.
The first time they put us on a small table in an'aisle'. It was so small that we had to stack our toast & pancakes & milk & cream bowl on top of each other. The waitress was distracted & falsely polite. She didn't check on us once during our meal. The food was average except the pancakes. I literally couldn't eat them. They tasted of baking Soda. It was disgusting. First time in my life I couldn't eat pancakes, even drowned in butter & syrup. We thought to give it a second chance.
We went on my birthday in the summer during the week so we had our pick of tables. The terrace was open, but I was with a friend who is obese. They had chairs with armrests. He couldn't fit in them. Inside there were armless chairs. We asked the waiter if we could bring one out because he didn't fit & he said no. He said the manager doesn't let anyone bring the chairs out. Period. Remember, there are only about 1/4 of all the tables taken. He walked us inside to a booth, my friend can't fit in booths. We had to ask to be moved again to the tables with armless chairs. Then the service was awful. Rushed waitress even though it wasn't busy. Food took about 23 minutes to show up! That has never happened ever to us at any breakfast place even when it's packed. My potatoes were cold, toast was cold & eggs over easy were hard, no dripping yolk. Orange juice was sour, & i toon blueberry pancakes hoping to cover the soda taste just in case, no luck. I could taste it over the blueberries. I still ate them because it wasn't as bad as the first time.
Overall, awful place. Don't go here. we will never go back, especially because their disrespect for larger people. It's too bad, because the location & terasse are beautiful.
Just got back from having breakfast here with a friend. I had French toast with apple bacon & cheddar, the plate was garnished with a variety of different fruits & it was delicious! My friend had a spinach cheddar crêpe & said it was great as well. The service was great & the restaurant itself is very nice. Definitely going back!
