Our favourite Cafe! Varied brunch menu, great coffee & friendly service. We brought our dog on the terrasse, & there is a park just across the road. Electric car charging right outside with high capacity chargers a short walk away.
A new restaurant in Ville-Émard, garden style decoration. Home made bacons were delicious, potatoes were seasoned well, the plate is good size with reasonable price. We went there for brunch during the week, not in rush hours(half tables were empty). Services were good but the kitchen was slow so we waited longer than normal, I wonder if they are short of employees in the kitchen. Update: had lunch there I this week, services are much faster than before.

Had the Ranchero for brunch & it was delicious. Can't wait to try some of the other meals. My only complaint is when the café is busy the acoustics are bad. Some sound absorbing acoustics panels would benefit the ambience.
Super place! Très chaleureux & la nourriture est délicieuse ! Very nice & charming place with amazing food. Everything on the menu is 5/5 (brunch especially)
I went there for my sister's birthday. We were excited to try this place since it's near her house & it looked nice & cozy. The servers were very patient. They allowed us to wait for people who were 45m late. I ordered a chai latter. It was amazing & the cup was to die for. However, the food was really disappointed. The bread was hard & burnt. It was not edible. I had the fried chickens with an egg & salad. The salad was old. I did not eat it. The fried chicken was also hard. It cost me around 28$. The food was not fresh or what you expect for brunch, so it was really disappointing.
Je suis allée avec 2 amis au brunch. Belle atmosphère. Service médiocre, très lent pour prendre notre commande, nous amener de l'eau, & servir les plats. Toutes les tables autour de nous sont arrivées après nous & sont parties bien avant que nous recevions nos plats. Les plats étaient corrects, sans être extraordinaire.
It has a nice ambience but food was awful. I got El Pablo. Fried chicken wasn't eatable. It was too fried that became hard. Potato was the same. It looks like they just warm up a left over food. I though maybe because it was 2:30 pm & too late for brunch. Service wan't that good either. They forgot my request to re-fill my coffee & brought the bill.
Un endroit sympathique & chaleureux. Le brunch est délicieux & original. L'endroit est lumineux avec plantes & le personnel est courtois, sympathique & souriant. Toujours hâte d'y retourner :)
Hybride café/restaurant/bar. J'ai visité un vendredi soir pour l'apéro/souper ainsi qu'une autre fois pour le brunch. Très belle ambiance & très lumineux avec ses grandes fenêtres. Bon choix de bières de la brasserie West Shefford. Le menu nourriture est alléchant. Nous avons pris la rillette de canard fait maison en entrée, vraiment excellent. Le burger de poulet frit était quand à lui tout simplement décadent 👌🏻Les choix pour le brunch sont également délicieux & le tout est original!

Resto sympa qui offre à la fois des dejs, des brunchs & un menu du soir. L'ambiance manque un peu de chaleur, mais la nourriture & le service sont impeccables. Vous pouvez aussi aller y télé-travailler si le coeur vous en dit.
Très bon petit brunch. Bonnes portions, endroit chaleureux (mais un peu bruyant avec la musique, elle mériterait d'être baissée un peu ou de pas y en avoir du tout), menu avec du choix & surtout un bon rapport qualité prix : environ 60 $ tout compris pour 2 avec café & bonnes assiettes.

I really like Monk Café, their food is yummy, the place looks great & the service is good.
The only thing I would suggest would be to add more vegetarian options outside brunch hours.
Super brunch, petite terrasse avec de l'espace & un super service. Les différents plats au brunch étaient tous bon & plutôt copieux. Mentions spéciales au pancakes je recommande en couple ou en famille c'est très adapté.
I went with my spouse for brunch the atmosphere is nice & the service was decent . However we
Ordered a classic breakfast & there were quite a few things wrong with it . The egg was was completly overcooked & served anyways , the potatoes were not seasoned properly & were extreamly dry & the crust of my bread was like a rock & totally unedible .
For 50$ it was not worth the price shame because i was excited to try it.
