Je ne fais jamais d'avis, mais aujourd'hui j'ai été choqué: 85$ pour un grill cheese, une quiche & 2 cafés. Je n'aurais rien dit si les plats avaient été bons & bien présentés, mais j'ai eu droit à un mini morceau de quiche & la moitié d'une petite assiette remplie de salade! Pour un plat à 26$, je m'attendais à plus. C'est vraiment très décevant. Mon conjoint a pris le grill cheese , c'était le moins bon qu'il a mangé dans sa vie.
Le point positif: le service est courtois & efficace.
Réputation de ce restaurant est surfaite & non méritée, c'est terminé pour nous.

A charming little café with cheerful staff, a lovely ambiance, & delicious paninis, the'Poached Egg on your face' was a must-try, though the portions are on the smaller side & the prices a bit elevated.

Je n'ai pas été impressionnée par l'offre du menu brunch. C'était bien, sans plus. Connaissant la réputation du restaurant du Vieux-Montréal, ça m'a surprise.
Le temps était splendide, la terrasse était agréable.
Café savoureux.

Honestly, the only reason I'm giving 2 stars for the food is the pricing! It was very tasty but nevertheless, it was ridiculously expensive for what is was. I'm siting there a cafe type of place & I'm paying the price of a high end restaurant! Makes no sense. & the worst, is the kids menu. 12$ for a tiny grilled cheese with no sides & not even a drink! Is it normal to pay almost 100$ for 1 adult & 2 kids at a cafe? Yes the place is super nice, the ambiance is great & the service too. But come on. I get that every meal now is 20$ & up regardless of what it is, even for a stupid croissant. But if you're gonna have kids menu, own it & give them something more than a tiny square grilled cheese on a marble platter no one cares about. & don't charge 6$ for a lemonade. That's insane.

J'ai adoré l'endroit, notre déjeuner & le café étaient très bons. Nous sommes allées vers 10h00, c'était vide, l'endroit est cependant devenu achalandé pour l'heure du lunch.
