Overall, reviews portray Pigeon Café & Bar as a stylish, cozy spot with a bright vibe and a strong brunch and coffee focus, offering Mediterranean inspired dishes like shakshuka, avocado toast and falafel, along with tasty pastries. The atmosphere and decor are frequently praised, though it can be loud and crowded at peak times. Food is generally well received when prepared well, but service is noted as inconsistent and at times slow or understaffed, with some orders arriving late or meals not matching expectations for the price. Prices are often described as high or overpriced for the value, yet many guests still enjoy the experience for casual meals, brunch, or social gatherings. The venue is described as suitable for events, with reviews highlighting friendly staff and good presentation, while others warn that service quality can vary across visits and locations.
Very overpriced for mediocre food. The decor is beautiful but music is ridiculously loud & really disrupts the vibe. The food, while presented nicely tasted no better then fast food with significantly higher prices. The caramel latte had an extremely chemically flavor. Service was fine.
Pigeons Café in Montreal is an absolute gem. The food is outstanding - fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. You can taste the quality in every bite, & the menu has a unique charm that sets it apart from other cafés in the city.
Beautiful decor & athmosphere. Servers are always very enthausiastic & warm. It can be a bit loud though when it's lunch time because it gets full very fast. Food is amazing. I loved my avocado toast but might prefer the honey balsamic glaze on the side next time because it was very overpowering.
Got the Shakshuka with halloumi & labneh, it was good. The restaurant was beautiful & clean. The host was nice & welcoming. The server was unfriendly & gave bare minimum effort, she failed to check on us. She just took our order, gave our food, & gave our bill. Music did not match the atmosphere. We definitely did not want to be listening to techno rave music during breakfast.
Very pretty place. The food was good. We did a Sunday Brunch at this place. We found it quite rowdy & noisy for a cafe place. Not sure if I would go back. Don't get me wrong it's a beautiful place!
Very beautiful, tastes good, friendly service, clean, all-in-all great. Only downside is quite a small portion for the price, when compared to places in the same style. Still, would return. Thank you
What a beautiful place. The cafe's decor created a nice ambiance. It made me forget we were still in the middle of winter. The food was amazing. I took one bite of my veggie sandwich & wow. Definitely going back!
This place was such a vibe! Very beautiful inside & out. We tried the breakfast/lunch menu. It was a bit smaller than expected. Prices were a bit more higher than expected. They had a great selection in bar drinks & hot beverages. I ordered the basic salmon avo toast, & my friend for the shakshua which was very delicious to add a gingerbread latte & to end with key lime pie dessert. The service was great, I definitely would come back to try their dinner menu!
I went there a few days ago by myself. I had the pigeon salad & a caramel latte. I found the place beautifully decorated & well-thought visually. Service was also very good & timely I really enjoyed my food & drink.
Personally, I would think the place would benefit from a change of music. Hits song were playing while I was there & I find it doesn't fit the place at all. I mean there were even delicate flowers placed in water vases. I suggest you make a switch to jazz or soft instrumental music. It would really fit with the decor.
