Review Summary

Reviews portray Le Vieux Vélo as a small, bright, and popular brunch spot where eggs Benedict and its variations, including Florentine and pesto Benedictine, frequently shine alongside good coffee and bread. The atmosphere is described as charming and relaxed with a concise menu that many feel delivers solid quality. While several accounts praise fast service and friendly, accommodating staff, others note that some servers meet only the basics or that service can be slow and inattentive, with missing extras like sauce or egg additions. A number of critiques mention dishes that seem reheated, overly salty, or lacking warmth, and some visits carry a sense of a higher price tag. Nevertheless, many diners insist the food, especially the eggs Benedict, potatoes, and hollandaise, is consistently excellent, with some calling it the best eggs Benedict in the city and others praising the coffee and the bread. The place is repeatedly described as cute, neighborhood friendly, and a pleasant spot to brunch with friends, though decor can be plain and music sometimes absent. Overall Le Vieux Vélo appears to be a small but bustling brunch destination where strong dishes and an appealing vibe compete with service gaps and occasional concerns about value.

Worst place in town!
Well, I had to read some previous comments about this place more carefully.
We were visiting the city during Grand Prix weekend & decided to stop at this place for breakfast.
I specifically asked the waitress about a waiting time (as we were heading to F1 race) & she assured me that the waiting time will not take more than 20 min. It took almost an hour! We noticed that they let groups of 2 in without any waiting time & suggested to them to put two tables together to minimize the wait time for groups more than 2 & improve their customer service.
As a result of this extremely negative experience, we didn't tip them at the end of the service.
The waiter with a metal triangle piercing in her nose, became very angry & even aggressive! She grabbed the water & our glasses from our table & told us that we need to leave the place immediately!
I really hope that the management of this place will read my comments & take the right action.
You cannot create artificial waiting lines as a free advertisement of your place. You also should be careful with who you hire & need to be aware of what's going on in your place in your absence.
What a shame to the city of Montreal!

The food was wonderful & inexpensive for the quality, however the choices are pretty limited. Our waitress was also very sweet & attentive. Will go again for sure

Un autre incontournable du quartier pour un déjeuner impeccable. Menu excellent, très bon service. Attention d'y aller tôt, cela se remplit vite le week-end!

Je mange au Vieux Vélo dès que j'en ai l'occasion! Le menu est très simple & ne change pas, mais tout est délicieux. Leurs oeufs bénédictine sont réussis, la sauce maison est bonne & l'oeuf est coulant. Si j'arrive sur l'heure du dîner, je prends un combo soupe-sandwich. La soupe change quotidiennement mais elle est toujours très bonne.
Le resto a un look super, avec les lampes de chez Lambert & fils qui lui donnent un petit côté vintage. C'est petit, alors c'est préférable d'y aller tôt ou en semaine, en groupe de deux ou quatre.
Le Vieux Vélo est un must pour le brunch!

On m'avait vanté ce restaurant pour ses oeufs bénédictine & j'avais très hâte d'y aller. Nous étions 6, ce qui est plutôt un gros groupe vu l'espace restreint, mais le jeune homme qui nous a accueillis a tout fait pour nous éviter d'attendre longtemps avant de s'asseoir, ce qui fut très apprécié.
Nous avons naturellement tous commandé des oeufs bénédictine : la moitié de la table a pris le ''classique'' (jambon) & l'autre moitié, dont je faisais partie, le B.A.B (brie, avocat, bacon). Dans tous les cas, les oeufs étaient bien coulants, les muffins croustillants & la sauce délicieuse.
J'habite assez loin, mais si on me propose à nouveau d'y aller, je ne devrais pas être difficile à convaincre.

sauce bénédictine excellente. Concept simple & sans artifices. Service courtois mais gêner.

Prix abordable & nourriture fraiche. Café excellent.

On aime, on partage & on y retourne.
