Pigeon Café & Bar offers a stylish, welcoming space with many praising the brunch and coffee, including flavorful, well presented dishes and appealing pastries, and the venue is noted as a good spot for casual meetups or celebrations. On the downside, service and value are inconsistent, with reports of slow and understaffed service during busy times, meals arriving cold or tasting average, and prices that some feel are high; the acoustic quality and noise level can be very high, sometimes dampening the experience, though several visits highlight friendly staff and great personal touches that enhance the visit.
We tried it out yesterday & had the best experience! Food was amazing, great choice of pastries as well. Rim was the sweetest waitress, she gave us great recommendations & made the experience even better. We also loved the decor. Definitely coming back!
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.
Pigeon Cafe hosted our wedding ceremony & reception in June. The restaurant's decor made it a magical night, & there was a wonderful atmosphere throughout the whole event. The food was delicious & the drinks were amazing. The staff was very friendly the whole night & provided the best service possible to all our guests. There was nothing more we could have asked for. Thank you Pigeon Cafe!
I have the Shoey Bagel & it was good. Service was good also & the waitress was knowledgable. The place is nice, different decor than the other places with makes the experience more enjoyable i find.

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.
Ce fut un brunch entre amies des plus formidables: décor original & recherché, ambiance sonore agréable (on s'entend discuter), espacement entre les tables adequat & salle de bain propre.
La cuisine m'a ravie. J'ai choisi un toast méditerranéen avec hummus, pois chiches, Grenade, fêta, pousses vertes & j'ai fait ajouter l'oeuf…. Quel délice!!! La présentation était vraiment jolie, les saveurs rares & la recherche de textures évidentes! J'ai même dit à notre serveur Francis que c'était l'un des 3 meilleurs déjeuners que j'avais pris de mon existence. Par ailleurs, le travail de ce serveur m'est apparu efficace; sa bonne humeur était évidente.
J'y retournerai, c'est assuré. Je recommande l'endroit!
(3 bémols:
-il a fallu un peu trop de temps avant que nous recevions nos cafés; c'est à dire, un peu après nos plats;
-la portion de ce toast était petite;
&
-la porte de la salle de bain n'a pas d'ouvre-porte mains libres).
Belle endroit, première expérience en matinée, très beau décor, prix raisonnable, mais par contre le service est trop sous le rush & de pression sur la clientèle. Oui je recommande, mais le service en week end matinee est une sorte de pression sur la clientèle afin de finir plus vite.

Nice decor, walls have cool art designs, there's a terrasse for outdoor eating, the food is good, the service is great & the coffee is better than any other breakfast place in the area. Highly recommend!
"Ma visite au restaurant Le Pigeon fut une expérience remarquable, marquée par une cuisine d'exception où chaque plat servait de voyage culinaire. L'ambiance chaleureuse, soulignée par une décoration soignée & une musique parfaitement choisie, a rendu notre soirée spéciale. Le service, n'était pas au rdv, un service 2 étoiles au slow Motion ce qui rendait le tout désagréable, Il est à noter que les prix sont quelque Tres exagéré. Un movktail une entrée trempette aux épinard 2 salades 2 café 1 dessert bisquit tout pour ceci pouts 118$ . Le Pigeon reste une destination incontournable pour ceux qui cherchent à savourer une expérience culinaire haut de gamme dans une atmosphère relaxante & accueillante."
I love coming to eat at this café. Everything is great, food is delicious & decorations are so nice!! It's such a vibe. I come often & it has never failed me. If you want cute Instagram pictures & enjoy the food this is your place.
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!
Honestly, like HONESTLY. I love this spot. I've only been twice but it's amazing. Every piece of good I have tried is full of flavour, their iced matcha is better than any other one I've had. The staff is so friendly & everyone seems to be in a good mood, high vibes. Decor & music is also on point. Don't walk, run to it 🙏🏻
My friend & I were out shopping with our two babies (car seats & all) & decided to stop in for lunch. The food, the iced lattes & the service was great. They were beyond accommodating & the choice of decor with the trees & the lights was lovely. I do not typically leave reviews but the service was by far the best service I've received in a long time. 10/10!
