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.
Je tiens à souligner que l'expérience a été merveilleuse, de l'accueil chaleureux à l'ambiance magnifique du restaurant. Je dois absolument mentionner le service exceptionnel de Sahily ; elle est extraordinaire, très gentille & attentionnée. Le service mérite amplement la note de 10/10 😍❤?
I visited this restaurant on Sunday evening, & unfortunately, I had a very unpleasant experience with the service. The staff member who served us was quite unfriendly. Even though he clearly knew that we did not speak French, he continued to talk to us only in French & made no effort to communicate in English.
His attitude made us feel uncomfortable & unwelcome. To be honest, I did not feel like leaving a tip at all, but I felt pressured because he was watching the card machine while I was paying.
Good service is just as important as good food, & sadly, that was not the case here.

Great service from Felipe & the food was really good, We visited the restaurant today with my family & we loved everything, especially the pancakes, they were delicious!
Première, & malheureusement la dernière fois que j'y vais. Le comportement du serveur manquait du respect ! On était 3 francophones, & à chaque fois qu'il venait à notre table continuait à parler en anglais, bien sûr après 10 min d'attente à chaque fois ! On est arrivé à 8:00 & on a pu passer notre commande à 8:45 alors que le café fêlé à 9h30!
Vraiment déçu !
Assurément, je recommanderais jamais ce café…
