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
Endroit très agréable offrant plusieurs services distincts à emporter, lunch, dîner. Peut-être achalandé. Très savoureux & bon service!View more

I really enjoyed the ambiance here. I came for lunch & it was bright & cheerful. I started with a latte & the presentation was lovely. Then for lunch I ordered the shakshuka…which is soft cooked eggs in a middle eastern style tomato sauce which was delicious. My friend had a simple omelette.View more

Commande via Uber d'une Salade scoop : mix de poulet pas frais au goût dérangeant & d'un sandwich Schnitzel livré brûlé! J'ai appelé au Pigeon Café & on me répond que tout ce qu'ils peuvent faire c'est de le dire à la cuisine, & d'appeler Uber... 57,08$ pour un mauvais lunch, c'est cher payé & ça laisse sur notre faim. Allons-nous recommander? Non!View more
The place is beautifully decorated but the food is severely lacking... I've gone three times & am always disappointed. The prices are quite high for what you get... the chicken burger was super hard & dry & the beef burger no flavour. I don't even understand why it's called a cafe when they barely have any pastries & serve mostly full meals & have limited times for their lunch & other options. Service was also nothing of quality...View more
Located on a busy & trendy street with a variety of restaurants. At 1 pm on a Saturday, we got the last available table although we seem to be the last of the lunch rush as tables became available as we ate. Quite loud...not a place for quiet conversation. Food & coffee was exceptional & service was very accommodating. A bit pricy for lunch, but worth it.View more
I was at the restaurant before it was this one & they refurbished it beautifully. The service was superb from the two slender & iron deficient guys that were looking like they needed a good meal, which was ironic. The young lady with the leopard top & great nails & really good eye contact, was most helpful. The menu was broken down into half complete booze so I guess it's abusatorium, & then one small section for breakfast but bigger than the other sections which were called lunch & supper. My meal came highly recommended from one of the guys & the waitress & it was very weird. But it was interesting & it did have some interesting taste as well as appearance. But poached eggs buried underneath some sort of red sauce with a bunch of stuff in it & a bun cut in half & then hacked again & toasted & the old piece of Middle Eastern bread & a nice lump of lebna goat cheese, & it was certainly something I hadn't seen before. My buddy Angelo, former owner of a famous Italian restaurant, had something more traditional & he liked his. The fries were surprisingly entertaining because they were shaped more like a waffle except with crisscross pieces with spaces between them. Very creative, reasonably tasty but definitely visually entertaining.. Both the excitement & the drawback all at once was the acoustics that had everybody's conversation from every square into the place in your ears. It was loud. But that doesn't mean that's bad... As I do go to an Italian restaurant in the West Island of Montreal that's very big & acoustically also challenging where you walk in & you have to practically yell at your friend who's standing right beside you to be heard. This was kind of like that . Definitely an interesting place & probably as the bar even more interesting. . Would I go back again for just the main course & what it cost, it's okay. Certainly a lot cheaper than covid-19 prices in many places but nothing cheap about the place at all otherwise. . One thing I don't care for however is their machine that takes your credit cards & it starts at 18% & goes up from there. The last two buttons on the screen to choose from are assigning your income to them & then assigning your home to them. Hahaha kidding but it felt like that because 15% was under choose another percentage. & remember that you're not supposed to tip & count the percentage on the tax but before tax. So when you pay 15% you're actually paying a fair bit more. There was no need for it to start at 18% tip! I find that... off-putting. . Otherwise I'd give the restaurant somewhere between a 3. 6 & a 4.1 . I deleted people's faces in my photosView more
