Reputed for its huge breakfasts, exotic fruit cocktails, and hip Plateau Mont Royal ambiance, the main reason most patrons frequent this establishment is to chew the fat among friends.
Bold flavors, huge portions, and a playful, vibrant vibe define L'Avenue, which offers a creative brunch menu with standout dishes like pistachio French toast, shakshuka, and eggs Benedict, accompanied by generous sides and strong coffee; the atmosphere is colorful and energetic, with disco style decor and lively music that many find fun, though a few reviews note it can be loud and crowded on weekends; service is described as friendly, attentive, and efficient once seated, with many mentioning helpful staff and quick refills, while a few experiences point to long lines and wait times before seating; some guests wish for more vegan or gluten free options and there are occasional notes of price or consistency concerns; overall it remains a top Montreal brunch spot for those seeking a filling, flavorful meal and a memorable vibe.
No recomanded for families, waiting to late we freezed out side, coming from Toronto to try, not recommended if you are hungry you have to wait to set 10min, not recommended on weekend .. won't come again..
Excellent brunch, très copieux, varié & vraiment savoureux. Les portions sont généreuses & les plats bien réalisés, avec de bonnes saveurs & des produits de qualité.
Le choix est large, ce qui permet de trouver facilement son bonheur, que ce soit sucré ou salé. C'est un brunch gourmand & très satisfaisant.
Le personnel est aussi très sympathique & accueillant, ce qui rend le moment encore plus agréable.
Une très bonne adresse que je recommande sans hésiter.
I had a really good brunch with some friends at this place in Montreal.
Honestly, it was such a delicious brunch restaurant. The'Huevos Rancheros' were absolutely wonderful & really enjoyable. I definitely recommend this place to anyone.
Service , outstanding. Food, outstanding. Great place with a great vibe too. I had a mix of french toast & breakfast eggs , toast ,sausage, beans & potatos it was a lot but it was great. The highlight was the french toast which was excellent. I polished this off with a strawberry matcha ice tea which was refreshing. I'd definately recommend this place.
Got brunch here for the first time last Friday with some friends. We got there sometime around 11:30am & had to wait ~10 minutes for a table. After being sat, we had some time to look at the menu. After figuring out what I wanted, I took the time to really look at the interior-it's so beautiful! There's a funky, retro, disco vibe to the place that makes it fun & inviting!
I ordered the Bobby Tries Istanbul, while my friends ordered the shakshuka & french toast. All the food was absolutely delicious & very filling! We even had a bit left over that we snacked on later.
The service was also great! Our servers were super kind & even packed up our to-go boxes for us! Would definitely recommend & I'll be coming back here the next time I'm in the city!

Beautiful atmosphere & a great variety of food.
Everything we tried was delicious & clearly made with care.
The service was excellent, our waiter was very respectful & served us with genuine love & attention.
Highly recommended.
Hands-down the best breakfast I've had in ages. Fresh-squeezed OJ mimosas, incredible flavours, & food that honestly tastes Michelin-level. Went with my son & we instantly became loyal customers. New favourite spot - highly recommend!

Fantastic spot for a quick brunch with something for everyone. The menu offers plenty of choices & there's sure to be something for every taste. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend choosing the baguette for your bread-it's delicious!
Angel, our server, was amazing! The service & the food were both incredible. I highly recommend trying the Benedict & the meat toast & the pistachio latte was on another level of good!
I'll 100% come back if I visit Montreal again.
We had a 7-day vacation starting from Montreal, then Quebec City, & finally Ottawa, & tried at least 14 different restaurants & L'Avenue was THE BEST!
Just a heads-up: it's totally normal to wait in line here, especially in a city like Montreal where people love eating out. Definitely worth the wait!
Très bonne ambiance ! Nous avons bien mangé, les assiettes sont très copieuses. Les cafés sont délicieux (essayez le moka !!). Les toilettes sont super stylés. Je recommande
I loved it. The food is delicious, the plates are super large, the service & staff are super friendly, & the prices are reasonable for the flavor & size of the plate. I recommend visiting this establishment on your visit to Montreal.

Les repas étaient très bons. Je vous recommande les crêpes au citron & bleuets ainsi que les pains dorés fraises & Nocciolatas. L'ambiance était bien malgré la
musique forte. Nous avons été chanceux car il n'y avait pas d'attente.
