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.
L'Avenue comes up in reviews as a bold, crowd pleasing brunch spot with huge portions and a playful, vibrant vibe that blends retro disco decor with colorful graffiti. The menu is praised for creative sweet and savory pairings, with standout items like shakshuka, eggs Benedict, and the Dubai chocolate French toast or pistachio French toast, plus the Indecisive options that let diners mix and match. Expect long lines and waits, especially on weekends, and seating that can feel cramped, but many say the experience is worth it for the generous portions and lively atmosphere. Value is a common thread, with portions described as enormous and prices considered fair for the quality, though a few reviews call it pricey for what it is. Service is typically described as friendly and attentive, contributing to a positive overall experience, while the noise level and crowds can be a drawback for those seeking a quieter meal. The bathrooms are frequently noted as an experience in themselves, adding to the overall memorable vibe. Parking can be challenging and the venue can feel busy, but visitors often return for recurring favorites and the sense that nothing on the menu is bland.
Excellente adresse de brunch sur Montréal. L'un des meilleurs que j'ai goûté ici. Merci à Endy pour ce service & cet accueil. Les prix sont correct par rapport à la quantité fournit.
Went for the pecan pie French toast. Exceeded expectations. Most delicious breakfast ever!!! Bagel & homemade cream cheese was super yummy also. We actually ate there twice during our 4 days in Montreal. Superb both times. Awesome atmosphere, inside & out. We truly enjoyed both breakfasts here. Whether you need to or not, go to the restroom on the right. You're welcome. 😂

Très impressionnant, l'environnement & le brunch. Un peu trop salé, mais quand-même délicieux. Une belle endroit pour le week-end matin avec les amis..

yea maybe it's a little overhyped & touristy but look at these french toasts. i have no complaints about the tiramisu 🙂↔️ only for how long i had to wait for it in line....so be prepared for that if you're going on a weekend
Wow .. my first breakfast in Montreal .. & the bar has been set very hight . Great food & amazing atmosphere. I had the "have it all" with scrambled eggs, French toast & pancakes. Oh .. the bacon & sausage .. to die for !! Great tasting everything My choice 💋👌🏼
Très bon brunch, bon rapport qualité prix quantités généreuses Attention à ceux qui recherchent un endroit calme ceci n'est peut-être pas le bon car l'ambiance est assez bruyante

Amazing first brunch in Montreal. The panko crusted French toast used for the SweetSavory+ Crunchy was so unique & delicious. I loved the honey orange glazed ham & the thickness of the emmental cheese was absolutely perfect. The portions were massive we couldn't finish at all! Also their hot sauce is so freaking good I wish they sold it !! Bonus for the cretons that reminded me of pâté! Iced latte was nice love the sugar rim so tasty (but warning it melts down the glass while sitting on patio becomes quite messy & sticky)
Boyfriend & I had a fabulous brunch experience at L'Avenue. The eclectic decor & delicious food, especially the pistachio & tiramisu French toast, definitely seem worth the wait. If you're looking for a trendy brunch spot in Montreal with a creative menu, L'Avenue sounds like a great option.
What a great place to have a family breakfast. The Food was outstanding. I little pricey. $193.00 for 4 + a 6 year old, for a breakfast. But very good. The service was the best I have seen in a long time.
food is so delicious , variety of choices Jasmine waitress was nice & helpful although we asked for the drinks to be served with food but it came after we finished our breakfast The person who greeted us at the entrance ( jessica ) was nice at first but as soon as we asked her to take back the tea & serve it with the food so we dont have to drink cold she got mad & talked very rude to us with bad altitude & told us that we should of told her from beginning & its to late . Jessica ruined our experience we did informed her colleague about her behavior & she didnt even care to apologize .
