Luncheonette propose une cuisine simple et maison avec des plats de petit dejeuner classiques, des burgers et des sandwiches, des œufs bien cuits, du bacon croustillant et des pommes de terre dorées, le tout dans une carte concise et axée sur le confort. Le cadre est cosy et retro, petit établissement au decor charmant, avec une ambiance qui rappelle les diners d’autrefois et des sièges au comptoir. La nourriture est fraîche et bien faite, avec des pancakes moelleux, du bagel au saumon fumé et des plats du jour qui donnent une impression de maison. Le service est globalement chaleureux et patient, et le personnel contribue à une ambiance conviviale. Des retours signalent parfois un service lent ou des retards sur l’arrivée des plats et des oublis d’accompagnements, mais l’ensemble des avis souligne la quality des plats. Le paiement est en espèces uniquement selon les avis, avec un distributeur sur place dans certains cas. Les prix restent raisonnables et les portions généreuses, ce qui fait de Luncheonette une adresse locale prisée pour un brunch ou un petit déjeuner copieux. La clientèle est fidèle et le cafe est souvent apprecié, ce qui incite à revenir tester d’autres plats.
Cute little spot with a nice vibe. The burger was really good (though a bit on the small side if you're very hungry), & the hot dog was okay.
Service-wise, I had to take off a point due to lack of clear communication. There's no indication anywhere that the place is cash-only, which is important to know in advance (there is an ATM on site, but still). Also, the menu suggests you can swap the chips for coleslaw/beans/potatoes, but only when we got the bill did we realize it comes with an extra $2 charge.
Overall, a pleasant place with good food, but clearer information for customers would really improve the experience.
I had a burger & coleslaw & both were 10 on 10. The coffee was just ok but the place is a traditional dinner & that's the type of coffee that is served in dinners. The wait staff told us before we ordered that it is a cash only place. Even though I knew that already, I think that it is a smart move to let the customers know up front & not be surprised when the bill comes. Also it was reasonably priced for our day & age which adds to its authenticity in my opinion.

Quaint diner, brings me back to the good old days. Simple menu (cash only, taxes included in the price) & the food was delicious. Our server was so sweet & pleasant, made me feel welcome. Strongly recommend!!!
Reasonable prices, delicious food, & excellent coffee served at the right temperature. We ordered a burger & two JJ breakfasts - the potatoes were nicely crisped, the bacon was crunchy & melted in the mouth, & the eggs were not overcooked. The place is small & cozy; if the tables are full, there are seats at the counter, which are perfectly comfortable. The waitresses are pleasant, & it's a real pleasure to watch the cooks at work. The chips served with the burger are baked (no oil). Unfortunately, this isn't mentioned anywhere, so keep in mind that the café accepts cash only - though there is an ATM inside, so it's not really a problem.
I have walked out twice as no one even approached to offer me a coffee or menu for 10-15mins while I was waiting.
First time I walked in, I felt like my kind was not welcome, the Staff gave each other looks & seemed like deers in headlights.
Second time I was completely ignored as I set at the tightly squeezed uncomfortable bar stool..mind you they saw me, till I walked out.
I don't know if this is a service issue, lack of stuff or something I dont want to allege.
I normally leave good reviews & choose not to comment negatively but i am not trying for the third time at a cash only establishment, with bad customer service.

Simple food well executed with quality local ingredients. Very happy to have them in the neighborhood!. We got the fried chicken sandwich & the bacon tomato sandwich, both were tasty.
Service is friendly & efficient, 💯 recommended. Prices are also surprisingly reasonable & include taxes. Cash only.
We will definitely come back very soon to try out the rest of the menu.
I'd heard about this place & wanted to go for a while, so I was happy to finally try it. The food was good, the service was super nice, & the place was overall clean. My only issue is the price & the fact that it's cash only-it's 2025; get an Interact machine. Second, the food was good, but it definitely wasn't cheap for what you got. Keep that in mind. I'm going to go back & try something else. The fried chicken burger was sweet. If the quality is the same, I'll give it a five-star rating, no issues.
The food was good - pretty run of the mill. Cash only. The place is so small & gets overcrowded quickly. We got hurried out after finishing the last mouthful.
Went to NDG Luncheonette for brunch on Sunday, & it was a fantastic experience. The service from the staff was amazing-friendly, attentive, & welcoming. The interior has a charming old-fashioned diner vibe that adds to the experience. Just a heads-up, it's a cash-only spot, which can be a bit inconvenient nowadays, but the quality of the food & atmosphere more than make up for it. Highly recommend it for a cozy & nostalgic brunch!
Cash Only!!! Figured that might be helpful to mention up front but don't let that dissuade you from checking out this 5 star place! Food was excellent, really great menu. Waitress was sweet & our food was served promptly. Loved the old school diner esthétique. The capacity of the place is pretty small, even with the outdoor seating, so get there early! My boyfriend hates breakfast places but he enjoyed this one! He had the bagel & lox & they smoke their own salmon!

The food is great. Simple but cooked really well. The waitress we had was good at her job (sounds trite, but a lot of people suck at the basics)- periodic check in for coffee & water, pleasantries, not a long wait to order/get food/get bill. Here is why not 5 stars: 1) only option to pay is cash. Really? A square can be added to a phone. For the prices we paid, wasn't any cheaper than other places that serve breakfast. So what, the owners can't offer even interac? I sadly won't return, in 2024, no place should be cash only & push their high margin ATM in the basement as an alternative. 2) while a bit of a misunderstanding, the waitress asked if we wanted apancake to share as dessert. I understood it as a comped freebie to try to upsell us on coming back, since we had said it was our first time. What came out was a full on dish added to our bill as more expensive than any dish we'd ordered. I didn't complain, because it was a nebulous situation, but it was way too slick a play by them & left me annoyed. Sufficed to say while the food & service was quality, the final interactions mean unfortunately I have 0 intentions of ever going back.
A Place of Yummy. Coffee offered first & then a menu. Chose Chicken Sandy, a perfectly designed burger. Flavours exquisite for a burger. More coffee, which was North American ok. Pleasant staff & relaxed clientele. Cash only, by the way.
Filter coffee was good, but not included. I had the full breakfast. Scrambled eggs were nice & fluffy. For the price I was expecting a notch above the competition, but it was just average. Cash only.
