Display Allbreakfast(81) brunch(25) recommend(23) egg(19) tip(16) waffle(13) options(13) benedict(12) toast(11) highly recommend(10) french(10) rapide(10)I waited a good 15 minutes at the entrance before someone came to seat me, which was weird. I also had to wait longer than I would have expected for my second glass of water & coffee. Otherwise, service was fine & the eggs & bacon were great. Not my favorite potatoes thought, but that's a question of taste. The atmosphere on the terrace is very cool.
Perfectly served breakfast. Had a large latte which was super creamy. Ordered one egg & bacon. For my surprise this came with fruit, bread & potatoes. So it was more than enough! Service is super polite & fast!
Great breakfast/lunch as always. Literally, never had a bad mean here...their eggs benedict & smoothies (my go-to) are 🤌🤌 Great waitstaff as well.
They have really sweet staff, this one girl (I don't remember her name unfortunately) gave us THE BEST spots to go thrifting in Montreal, shoutout to her 🫶🏾
& they have really good eggs bennys!
We visited Canada for a month, visiting Montreal, Ottawa, & Quebec City frequently going out for breakfast during our travels. Universel Dèjeuners & Grillades was our favorite during our travels for large, very reasonable, & delicious breakfasts. I love the option of the two egg breakfast with crêpes, toast, potatoes, & coffee. All of the weight staff we encountered were very pleasant & attentive. They offer indoor & covered outdoor seating. The only issue we encountered was the music too loud for us at times.
The breakfast was good; it would have been better if the eggs were cooked a bit more. The service was excellent as well.
My family & I had a pleasant experience at this restaurant We stumbled on this place while looking for a breakfast joint on Rue Cathrine before a campus tour. We were warmly greeted upon entry. Our server was excellent. I've never had someone ask'which language would you prefer to communicate with?' That's memorable service which warranted a huge tip at the end of our meal.
Anyway, the breakfast portions weren't huge, but just right. I ordered a western sandwich on croissant (excellent). My daughter ordered a croissant sandwich with egg, sausage & Swiss cheese (also excellent). My youngest daughter ordered plain crepes. When I tasted hers, I ordered my own single crepe as well. It was one of the best crepes I've tasted outside of what is made at home, or what Cora's serves.
I was most impressed by the bottle of maple syrup , free of charge, brought to the table to enjoy with crepes , French toast or waffles. The maple syrup was so good, i was considering sneaking the bottle into my daughter's purse (I didn't!)
We were greeted warmly by three people on the way out as well. Once again, excellent, tip-worthy service
I tried egg Benedict & it was so good, maybe a little too juicy. Fruits were so fresh & delicious.
This is a simple breakfast place with a diner atmosphere. The portions are large so we shared a salmon eggs Benedict. It was very
Lo Ely to spend a few hours In Montreal working the laptop on the steps at the Bell Tower. Stopped in for a great brunch. Eggs Benedict traditionally prepared, crispy home fries & personable service from our waiter. I'll be back again Montreal.
This location is next to a hotel & has an upscale ambiance. There is also a covered terrace in front just off the street. We ordered the banana strawberry Nutella toast & the combo eggs & waffle with extra toast. The coffee was additional. The waffle has syrup for the table included. The texture of the waffle was just a bit harder than I like but still okay. The french toast & potatoes were great. The portion sizes are quite generous. There is plenty of seating for one person up to medium-sized groups. The menu has vegetarian options for brunch & dinner.
Fabulous eggs benedict poutine that arrived very quickly. Very friendly staff
We went there Easter Sunday for breakfast & the service was horrible. The attitude of the staff is very unprofessional. We had to ask for everything instead they suppose to provide us by default. Example with egg breakfast combo with potatoes & toast. You suppose to have SALT PEPPER KETCHUP & JAM. But no they didn't even bother. I had to ask them. The pancakes for the kids were very hard & the chocolate milk portion was very very small... my kids didn't eat their pancakes. I had to ask for the coffee refill all the time. The waiter wasn't present . I had to look for him in order to ask for anything to be served.. The best thing in the end he comes with the bill woth TIPS included. I ask him why the tip is included, he said I have no choice to pay for it & it's a law. I have to give him 15% tip. My food order was 146$ & his tip was 22$ which equals to 168$. I told him I'll never give you a rip for bad service. He was insisting that I had no choice. So I ask for the manager & the manager is telling me the same thing. Also he start giving me excuses about the service. **he quote oh sir this us our fitmrst day for the terasse *** i replied since when this is a customer problem ...also I told him your service was bad & you still oblige me to pay him tip . He said sir. You have no choice, when I was discussing with him . One of his waiter had an audacity to interfere in the matter. I don't think the person was acting as a manager was actually a manager. I never had such an unprofessional behavior & 3rd class service. Honestly the food was good & expensive. I end up giving the waiter 15$ tip because I know they have to declare 7% tips of the total sales. I will not recommend anyone to go eat at that place. I really had a bad experience & ill highly recommend to stay away ....
1/2 Benedict classic: you get 1 eggs benedicts with 1 half wafdle eith fruits & nutella. The eggs benedict was enjoyable & the waffle is huge. However, the waffle although it looked crispy on the outside was quite chewy & arduous to cut. Stilla tasted fine. The potatoes are subpar. Too big in my opinion, no seasonning on mine & not any bit crispy. The egg & sausage platter was not out of the ordinary but it was good, just like any classics. The toast were on the burn side, which I don't like. Overall the service was great & very efficient. I didn't try any other dishes, but the people I came with were quite satisfied with theirs. Each portion comes with not quite ripe fruits but it depends on the season, I get that. You well full at the end of your meal & it's not too expensive.
Haven't been in maybe 8 years. But still comforting good food. Cheerful ambiance, & all day breakfast. Only thing is that i find they gave less hollandaise sauce then they used too. But the universal eggs benedict & the billy the goat were amazing.
Solid experience. Eggs Benny was tasty.
Massive menu fruit was very fresh.
Great hearty breakfast. I highly recommend Universel Dejuener. They catered to my gluten & dairy free food allergies. I had poached eggs, avocado on gluten free toast. A bowl of low sugar fruit too. We enjoyed Almond milk lattes.
Great job by the waitress who served us Irina - thanks for listening to my needs 👍
My family & I went to Universel for breakfast & absolutely loved it! There are a lot of choices on the menu - something for everyone. We ordered the fresh squeezed orange juice, bagel with cream cheese, fruit cup, eggs & sausage, & a croissant. The waitress was pleasant & attentive. Another waitress came over, smiled at my little girl (19 months), patted her head & told us she was beautiful. The food was all perfectly cooked & seasoned - waitress asked if I wanted ketchup on the homefries & I told her no, it would ruin them. When my daughter started to act up & we wanted to pay the bill & leave, they were quick to help us out & put leftovers in a to-go bag for us. There were other families with small children there too. Although I wouldn't say that this is a place for kids, it's definitely family-friendly. We'll go back again.
