Overall, Millmans tends to deliver delicious pancakes and a charming setting with strong staff, offering a great brunch experience when the kitchen aligns with the service.
Just an overall strange experience. Came in on a sleepy morning & were the only ones in there. Got the most watery filter coffee i've ever gotten in a cafe. The waiter could not say a menu item they eat on the menu despite being there 4 1/2 years. I might start walking out when i hear that from here on out. Only got two sandos. 16$ for a bfast sandwich is nuts compared to whats on the street. a single pancake to split which just had chopped cold bananas on top for their specialty. Dropped 50$ on the meal & was constantly being upsold by the waiter on more items. The sandwiches were also just cold & not cooked w love. just a disappointing find in the neighborhood. felt a bit scammed.
Millmans sur Wellington est un incontournable du brunch à Montréal. Le sandwich au poulet frit est une vraie réussite : croustillant, juteux & parfaitement assaisonné. Le pain, provenant d'une boulangerie locale, est moelleux & savoureux, un vrai plus. Le café est excellent, torréfié avec soin & servi bien chaud. L'ambiance est accueillante, avec une déco charmante & une énergie chaleureuse. Mention spéciale à notre serveuse, d'une gentillesse & d'une attention exceptionnelles, qui a rendu l'expérience encore plus agréable. Une adresse à ne pas manquer !
We had high hopes about this place based off Instagram & TikTok mentions but it was very mid. The blt & breakfast sandwich were smothered in some mayo type sauce, the bread was barely toasted, & the bacon was undercooked where it just felt like flabby ham.
The fried chicken had a nice crisp & was cooked well but they didn't season it at all, not even salt & pepper. The pancakes were good & I'm not a huge fan to begin with but even a sprinkle of salt on them would have elevated it. Staff were incredibly friendly & welcoming but the food sadly fell short for us.
We waited 20 minutes after being sat & no one coming to see us despite a relatively empty restaurant, so I walked to the counter to ask if we were supposed to order there. The young lady at the register was lovely & sent us the waiter who hadn't noticed our arrival. He proceeded to blandly apologize & have a cold & uninterested attitude the entirety of the service. The food arrived quickly, the chicken sandwich was very good, but the pancakes were flavourless fluff, strangely salty, & slapped on top was a mulch of melted frozen strawberries & sugar (the homemade jam).
Overall, service left to be desired depending on the staff, the food & coffee was meh but alright (I'd skip the pancakes), the atmosphere was very nice & the food arrived quickly!
The rumors are true, the BLT sandwich is absolutely fantastic. Bacon is very juicy & rather thick. Everyone is super friendly & the ambience is cool. Very nice stickers in the bottles!
Great food! Took the grilled cheese with bacon & it was the thickest & juiciest bacon I have ever tasted. However, I wish there was more cheese in the sandwich. Love the cozy atmosphere & the staff was great.

Fried Chicken sandwich was under seasoned & bland. The breakfast potatoes & the coffee was good. The service was slow, we waited over 40m. I think they had a new guys in the kitchen. Overall, for 25$ tax in it is not worth it.
We had an unfortunate experience at this cute diner. Slow service & the food was poor. I had pancakes that were flavourless, like eating paste. My husband had fried chicken sandwich. The fried chicken was mostly batter, the oil used to fry the chicken was old, so the chicken had a'burnt' taste to it. We were so looking forward to eating here, but all in all it was very disappointing & we will not return. There are better restaurants to frequent on Wellington.
Simple & awesome food. The fact that this place doesn't have a line up out the door blows my mind. By far best pancake & best bacon in Montreal. Breakfast sandwich is also super tasty. Finally a breakfast place that lives up to the hype. Do yourself a favour if you live in Montreal check this place out.

Updated again! They have sausage & besns now! Millmans has just opened but they are off to a great start. The menu is limited but the quality is there. Loved the thick-cut bacon, & tea in proper tea cups, & milk for the tea provided without asking for it. I will be a regular here! Good luck to Millmans & bon voyage! & now an update! The menu has steadily expanded providing more options, & they now have dessert too in the shape of pies! Just recently i have been mixing things up, so try the omelette with lox & avocado, or how about the smoked meat sandwich with a couple if eggs added? The locally-sourced sour dough bread mixes with the mustard & perfectly cooked eggs to create a messy, satisfying 5 star 🌟 experience.
They are understaffed & the space is pretty small, so there are long waits, but the food is worth the wait! I had the pancakes & the potatoes. Potatoes are amazing, pancakes are good but not as fluffy as expected. The grilled cheese & breakfast sandwich looked incredible. I'll be back.
Le Millman breakfast was unbelievable!! We shared a pancake at the suggestion of the waitress & it was fluffy inside & crispy around the edges!! The fried chicken sandwich is a must & you have to get the home fries with it because they top them with everything bagel seasoning!! We had a bloody Caesar & mimosa ( well, 3 each!!!) & they were on point!
The 2 servers felt like friends even though it was our first time here & don't even get me started on the cook!!! She was so funny & engaging & I really want to be her friend....so we will just come back!!
Sit at the bar, it is a definite vibe & so fun!!
De passage pour manger un bout, nous avons pris des pancakes & un sandwich déj. Nous avons été très bien reçu & la carte a été expliqué avec précision, ce qui est fort appréciable, le service était rapide & la cuisine très bonne & les plats très copieux ! Les prix sont justifiés !
