We went to Pigeon Café on Monkland this afternoon for a late day breakfast. Called ahead to make sure they serve breakfast all day & that we weren't ordering breakfast items at a time they dont normally serve it. Numerous breakfast items were 100% on the lunch menu. We were VERY disappointed. I ordered 2 eggs over-easy with grilled salami, breakfast potatoes, & white toast. The eggs were fried hard & crispy, the grilled salami was paper thin, & had obviously been sitting around for quite a while. It was dry & inedible. The deep friend potatoes had been left-over from lunch, dry, dehydrated, & cold, finally the toast was unbuttered. My fiancee ordered the Avocado toast, the Avocado was not ripe & hard to cut & eat.
The restaurant was not busy at all, only 3 other tables & 3 or 4 wait staff. This is when you should be at your best bcuz you don't have an excuse like'we were busy'. If you can't excel when it's slow & you're not busy, then either you're just bad or you don't care. As a (now), retired Master Chef, I would NEVER serve food like this at any time, let alone when the restaurant is almost empty & I have more than enough time to get it right. I hate giving bad reviews as it can really affect a business, but when it's this bad & there is no reason for it, it has to be said.. in saying that, I also believe owners/managers need to know whats going on. They can't fix something if they don't know its broken. Based on todays visit, I do not recommend Pigeon Café on Monkland. ⭐?⭐?View more

Discovered this vibrant place during our recent short trip to Montreal & our craving for some good European breakfast & man this thing blew our expectations!!! Starting from the service & courtesy, really top notch. We were with 3 kids & we felt welcomed.
The ambiance & decor are nice. Really adds a positive vibe to this place. We decided to go with their shakshuka, pancakes, & croissants along side their coffees. Nothing disappointed us; infact tasted very good. Not bad on the pocket as well. 10/10.View more
So delicious! The only complaint is the portion of the chicken on the Caesar salad & not enough pita bread for the falafel; especially for the price thats the only reason I withheld from giving 5stars. However it was all very delicious.View more
