Le Toasteur Villeray Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
BreakfastCaféCrêpesSandwichesBurgersVegan OptionsBrunch
Le Toasteur Villeray is a breakfast and brunch restaurant in the heart of Villeray.

While the Toasteur concept has existed for several generations and has had several locations, it is in the Villeray district that it found its second wind.

At the end of 2020, we chose to flip the table, literally and figuratively! From reorganizing the space to redesigning the menu, we decided to renew ourselves. This was possible thanks to a passionate team and especially thanks to the neighborhood clientele who have been showing us their love of brunch for over 10 years.

Review Summary

Le Toasteur Villeray comes across as a cozy, bright brunch spot with a warm neighborhood vibe and a second floor that adds space. The rotating menu changes every two months to highlight seasonal and local ingredients, blending reinvented classics with original creations. Dishes are generous, flavorful, and well presented, with favorites like eggs Benedict on pain doré, avocado toast, poutine déjeuner, and thoughtful vegan options and gluten free adaptations. Coffee and drinks are a highlight, with a moka coffee and well made lattes and chai noted. Service is generally friendly and attentive, though some reviews mention slow pacing and long waits, especially for seating and during peak times. The place is described as family friendly and suitable for couples or solo visits, with reservations not available and weekend lines common, so arriving early is advised. Value is praised for generous portions and quality, while some readers note price and the wait as tradeoffs. Overall, Le Toasteur Villeray is seen as a standout brunch destination in Villeray, beloved for its atmosphere, creative seasonal menu, and welcoming staff, with a few caveats about service speed during busy periods.

Nice little brunch spot in villeray. The food was good, the french toast was not too sweet which was good. The iced chai latte is a must try!

This is a 3.5 stars for me.

The place is quite small but it has a nice vibe. Just plan to arrive earlier than 9 AM on weekends, it's not possible to book tables.

Staff is very welcoming & friendly.

In terms of the food, I find it average, nothing special. The french toast were too dry for my taste. The menu changes every 3 months. Overall, it's a good neighbourhood option.

Street parking can be challenging to find, best bet is Av De Chateaubriand.

Nice ambiance, friendly service.

Most revelatory for a brunch place: great options for vegetarians! For once not feeling like a second thought. The vegetarian classic breakfast comes with eggs, veg. sausage, tofu, salad, toast, & French toast with REAL maple syrup (no extra charge)!

Went there for a Sunday brunch after seeing all the great reviews this place has, but we were unfortunately very disappointed. It took so so long for the food to come out, the longest I have ever waited. We didn't think that an order of french toast & an omelette can take over an hour to be served. The french toast was a big flop, it was so dry & looked like it was barely soaked in eggs, didn't taste like a french toast at all but rather just the jam they put on top! In addition the bottom of the toast was completely burned it was black. The omelette was good but nothing you can't whip at home. Definitely not worth waiting all that time for.
