Overall, Pigeon Café & Bar comes across as a warm, inviting spot with a bright plant-filled interior and a strong brunch and lunch lineup, where the service is repeatedly praised for being friendly and attentive and the coffee and food, including pancakes, shakshuka, bowls and salads, and waffle fries, are generally well received; some visits are challenged by slow or inconsistent service, occasional language barriers, and prices that some feel are high for the portions, while the atmosphere and vibe encourage guests to return.
It is a cool cafe with a nice vibe. The food is slightly overpriced but the atmophere is nice, people are nice & there is lots of space to work on my laptop.
Great place for breakfast! The vibes & atmosphere here are 10/10! The food & drinks are amazing aswell! Frank was our server & made the experience great for us! Thank you for having us!

The service from Juan Camilo at Pigeon was top tier. Super friendly, attentive to every detail, & had such a good vibe that made the whole brunch experience even better. He walked us through the menu with a smile, gave us amazing recommendations, & checked in at just the right moments.
You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, & it shows. If you're heading to Pigeon, I hope you get seated with him 🙌🏽
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.
Great place to go on a date. Great vibe to the place. I had a cortado & it was really good. Not the best place for croissants but they have plenty of options for coffee & drinks. The interiors of the place are stunning. Would definitely recommend.
We loved the food & the service! Everything was amazing. The place has a very enjoyable vibe & tasteful decoration. The waiter was very attentive & the manager came to see how we were doing. I highly recommend the onion soup, the calamaris & the mediterranean bowl.

I am living in town, near the place bht It was the 1st time visting it. Impressed by the food, the vibe & the quality of service. The waitresse was nice shes was respectful. best place on Monkland. See you next time soon.
Booked a reservation for party of 25. Very kind & accommodating. The waitress was told about severe allergies, however my friends still received food with the allergen. (Happened twice!) Luckily nothing severe happens but it could have been much worse. Also someone found a hair in their food. They replaced the food & was still very kind. The food was amazing besides those accident. Came out fast. The decoration & vibes are immaculate!! Would recommend
Loved the vibes at this place !! The food was good !! Only they take too long to serve you ! The place gets really crowded over the weekend brunch tho !! We waited a good 20 mins to be seated .
