Coffee is good but this location is not it.... service was not good. The waitress never came to see us after we receved the food & she barely smilled. I ordered the two eggs plate & asked for sunny side up (did not get sunny side up) mistakes happen no big deel but couldnt find our waitress so asked someone else to exchange my eggs. Its not the first time i eat at Pigeon Café but selling 2 eggs plate with half an avocado, 1 tiny toast & a mini side of cucumber salad (which was hot...) for 15$ is crazy. At the one in Cote Vertu area, plate was full & had enough for my money (served with patatos, bread, eggs & had a choice of meat + waitress gave us peanut butter/jam). But Mcgill Pigeon is not the place to go... the food is not bad & the ambiance is really nice but they need to review their dishes/plate cause for the price its not generous like others Pigeon Café :/ For just a coffe on the go it okay.
Had a delicious brunch at Pigeon cafe!! We got the smoked salmon tower for 2 & the shoey's breakfast bagel, all very delicious & filling. It's not the cheapest but I do think it was worth the quality of the food.
The atmosphere of this cafe was also wonderful, especially on a cold day it was nice to be surrounded by plants & the beautiful decor.
