Review Summary

Pigeon Café & Bar is frequently praised for its beautiful, lush interior design and inviting atmosphere, making it a popular spot for brunch and casual gatherings. While many visitors highlight delicious menu items like the shakshuka, pancakes, and various sandwiches, experiences with food quality remain inconsistent, with some citing issues regarding freshness, seasoning, or portion sizes. Customer service is described as highly polarized; many patrons have enjoyed exceptional, friendly, and professional interactions with specific staff members, while others have reported instances of slow, inattentive, or even rude service. Additionally, some guests have expressed frustration over noise levels, specific policies like the weekend ban on laptops, and perceived lack of value regarding pricing and tipping structures.

Quite overpriced when compared to quality.'Cafe' is misleading in their name. It's more of a breakfast & lunch restaurant.
We went for an Omelette (Tomato, Onion, Feta) & a Pigeon Salad with Falafel. Omelette was good but Feta wasn't evenly distributed. Salad accompanying the omelette was good. Pigeon salad was good but falafel was a huge let down. A bit hard & didn't taste fresh. For $6 that they charge for falafel alone, I would expect much much better.
Staff was nice but the service was way too slow. It's in downtown, so parking can always be a challenge.
Not trying it again.

Came here with a few girlfriends, & I'm honestly just so impressed. the dirty martini was so good & im so finicky about them. also the happy hour prices are incredibly cheap. the bartender was so kind, we loved her. im adding it to my rotation of bars!

I have been here many time & most times I come for take-out coffee. It is always excellent on my way to work & I highly recommend the Mocha. All I say is that it can get quite busy & a bit unorganized at the door so it's hard to work around finding a space to wait for my drink being made. Other than the small hiccup I really enjoy the togo treats & come as often as I can.

I love Pigeon & the food is always great, however note that they have a new policy forbidding laptops during the weekend, so it's definitely not a great study spot for students during that time :
