Truly the best brunch I've ever had. I'm used to settling for'basic' or heavy food at brunch, but Le 1881 is on another level. I ordered the classic breakfast & was blown away by the freshness of the ingredients; it exceeded every expectation. The prices are fair, the decor is stunning, & for once, I received a perfectly made cappuccino. I dined alone today, but I will definitely be back with friends!
Brunch was fine & reasonably priced but nothing memorable. Food was not terribly hot. Brioches were average. The servers left us alone for a long time even though the place was mostly empty. Portions were on the small side. Decor seemed impersonal & basic. I went because of the fabulous reviews & I don't know what they were on about.
Déjà la 3 ème fois que l'on vient ! Jamais déçu, la qualité des produits & top & les prix très abordables! Le service est irréprochable, merci Éléa, merci au chef pour ce délicieux brunch !
Nous reviendrons très vite.
Restaurant Le 1881 in Montréal is a hidden gem nestled within the MAA Club Sportif on Peel Street. The menu blends refined bistro classics with fresh, seasonal ingredients-standouts include tuna tartare, shakshuka, & salmon eggs Benedict. The ambiance is modern & cozy, making it ideal for brunch dates or casual dinners. Service is warm & attentive, & prices are reasonable for downtown. Though coffee could be better & service can slow during busy hours, overall it's a great spot for quality dining without the fuss. A solid choice for anyone seeking elevated comfort food in a relaxed, stylish setting.
I've enjoyed lunch here several times. Friendly service in a pleasant setting, not too crowded. The food is excellent. The pasta dishes are flavourful & filling. Tuna tartare is delicious. There's always a fresh fish of the day. Every dish is freshly prepared. Even though it's located at the entrance of a sports club, it's open to the public. Coffee is excellent too. Don't hesitate to come here for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. You won't be disappointed.
We had a wonderful brunch experience at Restaurant LE 1881. The dishes were fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. The shakshuka was rich & hearty, with perfectly poached eggs in a vibrant tomato sauce topped with fresh arugula. It came with a side of crisp toast & fresh fruit - a refreshing balance to the warm, savory flavors.
The croissant breakfast sandwich was equally impressive - flaky, buttery pastry enveloping fluffy eggs, melted cheese, & peppery greens, paired with fresh strawberries & melon.
The atmosphere was modern & inviting, with plenty of natural light & comfortable seating. The service was attentive, warm, & genuinely welcoming, adding to the relaxed, enjoyable dining experience.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a stylish yet cozy spot for brunch in the city.
Excellent!
Très content de mon expérience.
Un brunch très bon & suffisamment copieux.
Service parfait.
Ambiance sereine, calme & respectueuse, à une heure tardive pour un brunch (14h30)
À vous si c'est de même à des heures plus achalandées...
Mais je suis conquis.
What a hidden gem! We went for weekend brunch & were not disappointed. Beautiful, chic restaurant with professional & friendly staff. The Smoked Salmon Benedict was exceptional. Fresh, flavourful salmon paired with perfectly poached eggs & a delicious hollandaise sauce that left us craving more. On the other hand, the 1881 Breakfast was absolutely incredible. The tender meat, flavourful mashed potatoes, & a fried egg with a runny yolk created a perfect harmony of textures & tastes. This dish was truly a surprise that elevated our breakfast to another level. Hats off to the chef! To be completely honest, the pictures don't do it justice.
Superbe souper passé au 1881 avec des amis. Nous avons commandé plusieurs entrées/plats pour partager, tout était excellent! L'endroit est charmant & le staff est attentionné. J'y suis retourné aussi le matin pour essayer le brunch & c'était tout aussi bon (il faut absolument essayer le smoothie «café réveil»).
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Le 1881. I have been for both brunch & dinner, & I must say, the food was absolutely delicious. Gary & the staff members were incredibly friendly & attentive, making the overall dining experience very enjoyable. I highly recommend Le 1881 to anyone looking for a great meal in a cozy atmosphere. 5 stars all around!
