Overall, reviews describe Orange Café as a popular spot for breakfast and brunch with generous portions, friendly and attentive staff, and a broad menu that many consider good value for the price. Guests praise comforting classics and hearty options, with quick service on busy days and a cozy, community feel. However, experiences vary: some diners find the atmosphere very noisy and hard to hear their companions, while others encounter slower or less attentive service, seating delays, and inconsistencies in food quality, particularly with breakfast potatoes and eggs Benedict. Many visitors say they would return for reliable brunch and warm hospitality, and several call it one of the city's better breakfast options, though a few leave disappointed by price discrepancies or perceived declines in quality over time.
Ate here on Christmas morning with my family (surprisingly no wait) All of the staff members are super kind & helpful. The food was great, & large enough portion sizes to take some home for later :)
Vraiment bon quantité pour le prix un peu plus cher que les autres brunch mais tu reçois plus en quantité!!! Les crêpes seules sont average sinon la poutine smoke meat était full bon & les combos de $25 avec toast, pancakes, oeufs, fruits, bacon, saucisses & fruits avec café illimité 😃
The food was really good, the service was a bit slow but our server was kind. the ambiance was okay, it was kind of dark inside but overall experience we are satisfied. parking on the street is a bit tricky.
It is a nice place with kind & hospitable staff. Access was easy with no stairs, although the entrance is a bit small & might not be wheelchair- friendly. We had a combo, which was enough for 2 & half people. It had coffe, juice, toast, french toast, poutine, ham, eggs & fruits included. Overall a very pleasant experience.
Best breakfast poutine I've ever had! Someone recommended this spot so we took the metro & walked to check it out. It was really busy but the service was super fast & our waitress was great. I wanted to get a picture of the breakfast poutine I ordered but it was so good I forgot...

J'ai commandé le plat d'oeuf bénédictines spécial Benny & j'ai trouvé ça très lourd... je n'ai pas pu finir l'assiette! Les saucisses, bacon & jambon étaient bons, mais c'était trop gras dans l'ensemble avec la sauce 👀. Le cappuccino glacé était bon avec la crème fouettée, mais je l'aurais apprécié plus sucré. Pour ce qui est du deuxième plat commandé, c'était bon!
Came here to have brunch before heading downtown via the metro. The wait to be seated was quite long, & we received our food almost an hour after taking a seat. The meal left a lot to be desired, but that might be because I didn't order something they specialize in. The staff were very polite & helpful but were too busy. If visiting, I would recommend getting a reservation if possible, & trying something other than an omelette.
I recently stumbled upon Orange Cafe, a charming breakfast spot with both a cozy & bustling ambiance. Their menu is deliciously diverse, offering a variety of options to choose from. The service is attentive, & the welcoming atmosphere makes it an ideal place to kickstart your day.
The brunch tasted good & was delicious. There was a waiting line so we had to wait for the waiter to accommodate us. The place has nice photo frames on the walls but it could use a makeover. The seats & tables look very faded & used. It was Sunday noon so I guess it was the busiest time of the week, but it seemed like they were a bit short-staffed. All in all the food was good & the staff were nice but the place needs renovation & cleaning.

I come here often because the food & vibe are amazing but I've had May as my server numerous times & she literally brightens my day. She is so kind, so nice & very attentive to her clients. The staff here is very welcoming & I will never stop coming to orange cafe :)))
I tried orange café three times for brunches. It is usually crowded & the service is fair. The first two times were so good. I am on gluten free diet. They have gluten free toasts (almost extra 3$ charge) & I asked for sweet potatoes instead of the potatoes (also extra charge). The sweet potatoes were good & the whole dish was delicious. The 3rd time I went there, I ordered the same thing I had before with the gluten free toasts. I started eating & I had one whole toast, & all of a sudden the waitress came to tell me that I got the one with normal/gluten toasts & she apologized for this mistake. They brought me another plate but this time the pouched eggs were not well cooked. I got so bloated & with the uncooked pouched eggs , I felt like vomiting. The last experience was not pleasant for me at all. Thank God I am not celiac or allergic otherwise this mistake could harm me in a very bad way. They did not charge me (which is the least they can do). I was bloated & I felt heaviness the whole day coz of this mistake. I put 3 star to pay more attention to such things as this may cause real harm for people with strict dietary restrictions. Despite my last bad experience, they have good options & it is a good place to have a breakfast or a brunch.
Ok, wow. I probably would have passed this place by without even noticing it if it hadn't been for the recommendation of our Airbnb host. It's lovely inside, the booths are so comfy, & the service was quick & wonderful. The menu is big, almost too big, because it's so hard to decide what to get. Everything sounded so good. I don't think you could be disappointed with anything though. We tried omelets, wraps, breakfast sandwiches, smoothies & breakfast potatoes. Everything was amazing. My kids asked to go back tomorrow. We will definitely return if we visit Montreal again.
