The Best Restaurants in Montreal’s Mile End | Eater Montreal

"This bright space on the Main does great coffee, but lunch and brunch are the stars. The food leans German, but without any of the stodginess that might stereotypically be tied to the cuisine — it’s thanks to plenty of seasonal vegetables, and altogether well-rounded dishes. Reopening on June 8." - Joel Balsam

10 Great Restaurants for Takeout Easter Meals in Montreal | Eater Montreal

"This German-leaning Mile End restaurant has been garnering attention for its hot cross buns since early March, and now, with the arrival of a set menu for Easter, it has become a shoo-in for this year’s subdued festivities. For $40 a head, it’s offering a three-course service, including an endive salad with fresh cheese, marinated peppers, and almonds; a flaky biscuit atop a ragout (rabbit or mushroom) with grilled asparagus; and a hazelnut praline and dark chocolate tart for dessert. Not to worry: The hot cross buns are available until Easter, too. Place orders via its online boutique." - Valerie Silva

10 Best Brunches in Montreal | Condé Nast Traveler

"Butterblume's menu reflects the experience of its owners and chef: co-owners Julie Romano (of Olive & Gourmando) and Nadine Boudreau (of the wine bar Pullman), and German chef Jens Ruoff (formerly of the highly acclaimed restaurants Bouillon Bilk and Van Horne), bring fresh comfort food with a refined, healthy twist to the table. The ingredients are organic and the flavors rich; try the homemade granola with puffed quinoa, dried fruit, and yogurt, or the homemade sourdough bread, a house specialty, with a chocolate-and-hazelnut spread. Located on Saint-Laurent Boulevard on the block between Bernard and Van Horne, Butterblume attracts a hip Mile End crowd." - Karin Eldor

Had a delightful lunch here! The mushroom soup with sourdough bread was fantastic—perfect for a chilly January day. The red wine short rib was incredibly tender with a deliciously crunchy crust—easily the best I’ve ever had. Fair warning: it’s a very filling dish! We also tried the beet, fennel, and citrus toast, which was absolutely amazing. The service was great and incredibly attentive, making the experience even better. This is what happens when culinary skill meets fresh ingredients. Truly enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back!

What an amazing lunch! Located in the trendy Mile End neighborhood, Le Butterblume excels in service, atmosphere, drinks, and food. To eat, we ordered the leek salad, waffles with passion fruit cream, cream of broccoli soup, and the sando. Everything was full of flavor and so good. The waffles may be the best we've ever had. The lemonade and their strawberry sour were tasty too.

A perfect lunch or brunch spot, during the sunny days you can sit outside. They have a table near the window which is perfect for an indoor/outdoor vibe. The foooood was delicious, definitely bigger portions than we expected but everything was light and perfect for vegetarians too with loads of options! Everything was fresh and would highly recommend for families, friends or even solo. The staff was very friendly and opted for conversation if you’re into that

We had a charming and delightful brunch experience at @lebutterblume_mtl. A cute and lively destination, offering brunch on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays that is sure to impress. The periodically changing menu at Le Butterblume is a testament to creativity, featuring intricate and innovative dishes showcasing fresh ingredients that burst with flavor. We especially enjoyed the pumpkin burnt cheesecake—a delightful sweet dish that perfectly encapsulates the flavors of the season. Rich and creamy, with a beautifully charred top that added a depth of flavor. The spiced caramel cream infused each bite with warm, inviting spices. It was topped with sweet and salty pumpkin seeds that provided a wonderful crunch and balance, and a buttery crumble enhancing the flavor profile of the dish. The salmon and spinach feuilleté beautifully combined flaky pastry with rich, tender salmon and vibrant spinach. Covered with a creamy béchamel sauce and a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up egg. During our visit, we were pleasantly surprised by the super-fast and friendly service. We were in and out within just 40 minutes, which is a remarkable feat considering the quality and attention to detail in each dish. The staff was attentive and welcoming, creating a warm atmosphere that made our brunch even more enjoyable.

I really enjoyed brunch here. They had unique offerings on the menu (we tried the breakfast hotdog!), the coffee was great and the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed.

Randomly choose here for brunch around area. No service, food is okay but nothing impressed. Cauliflower cake was dry. Eggplant toast not bad but too salty for me. Pork belly pancakes is brunch menu only for weekends, hard to say:)

Beautiful interior and food! Their menu changes every week (whoa! Creative) The bacon thing was nice and their egg is cooked perfectly. It was a good amount of food and we were full. They grow their ingredients upstairs which makes the food taste extra fresh! Nice view and was busy on a Friday afternoon. Simply delightful as @unobtanable has exclaimed. Total was around $50 for 3 people!

Food is a cut above the rest here. Although we waited upwards of 30 minutes for a table, the food made up for it. The food is a very creative melange of ingredients. I ordered the parsnip pancake, which was really good. My companion ordered the squash tartine which was fabulous. Their scones are also unbelievable. I would suggest arriving promptly at 10am when they open to avoid waiting in a long line to secure a table at this popular brunch spot.

This place is always busy but it's evident why, the service is amazing and the food is just out of this world. My friend and I only came in to have dessert but she ended up getting the soup and it was so good, hearty and warm and savoury. Perfect on a cold, sunny, winter day. The cafe is so inviting and bright. Perfect for brunch. They don't take reservations but it moves quite quickly.

Such a wonderful discovery I made in July 2021. I have returned 3 times since. This chef and owner creates everything including complex flavors, fresh herbs, etc. Service staff is very amicable, wine list is great comprising of wines from European countries you don't easily or normally find at the SAQ (Quebec liquor stores). I often dream of their food.

I've passed by this place many times, it's cute and very spacious inside. It was written up as one of the best brunch places in Montreal and many friends have told me I've got to try it. To be honest, I think all of that made me have very high expectations. I rate this place as a solid 3.5, I have had better brunch in Montreal and probably wouldn't return. I came with my boyfriend one Sunday morning, we were fortunate and didn't have to wait too long for a table. We found that the menu was a little confusing... better put it was very hipster. It was unclear what was brunch, what was lunch, what was a side dish. I spent most of the time googling what the ingredients were. As a foodie, I usually know what everything is, but this time no haha. I settled on the roast beef sandwich and my boyfriend got some cake. Both were around $15. To pay $15 for a sandwich, I was hoping it would come with a little something on the side, but it didn't. It was a fine sandwich, but nothing to write home about. As for the cake, it was beautifully presented and it was tasty. I just thought it was weird having just a slice of cake for a meal. All in all, I think it was fine, but all the other reviews made me think it was the best of the best and that expectation wasn't made.

Such a cute place on the far end of Mile End. We came close to closing and the place was still fully packed. I luckily managed to sit in front of the kitchen and was a delight watching the chefs interact and prep food. Everything my partner and I ordered were delicious but the herbs on every dish got a bit repetitive (mostly and lots of dill). We ordered the homemade currywurst, butternut squash cavatelli, and the poached egg open toast with duck breast, yogurt, and butternut squash. I almost wish we didn't eat through Mile End so that I could eat other things off their menu.

This is one of my favourite joints in town. I love the space, which manages to be spacious and relaxed even when it's full. Beautifully composed plates, wonderfully delicate, layered flavours, all using brunch as a palette. Upon repeated visits, the food didn't blow me away as much, but it still a very refreshing take compared the usual bacon and eggs. Just as an example, the second time I came here I had the dish pictured below, a deft combination of fennel, poached egg, shrimp. Last time was another version served over something close to a latke but a bit dry and tough, with a smoked salmon so potent it punched the dish in the face. Good, but left me dreaming of shrimp. That's going to be my 80s electro band's name, "Dreaming of Shrimp". Highly recommend the dumplings in broth dish.

Went there twice and everything was quite good. There is a menu that is regular and they have some daily specials as well. The atmosphere is relaxed and most of the dishes I tried were delightful. If you go there during the weekend, there is a wait.

First off, this place is adorable! Super cute decor and cozy atmosphere. I came on a Saturday for brunch at although the place was packed, we were able to get seated right away. What I loved about Le Butterblume was that the menu items were super unique! Much more interesting than your typical brunch offerings and everything was incredibly tasty. I recommend ordering a bunch of things and sharing, which is what we did. Everything was delicious but the cauliflower cake, Brussels sprout toast and steamed "bun" were my favorites. Not only is the food amazing, but the prices are reasonable for what you get and the portions are very generous. Highly recommend Le Butterblume and can't wait to go back next time I'm in Montreal!

I've seen more delicious, generous, creative or affordable brunch places nearby but this place is totally worth a try for its healthier options (no excessive bacon+eggs+potato kind of combo) and the extra "vibe" it provides: fresh flower cut, tasteful furniture, vibrant plates - small portion, high quality and easy to share. My only complaint is the lack of comfortable seating (50% bar seats and they don't take reservation) and its non-competitive price tag (smaller portion than competitors but not cheaper, coffee is not refilled). Try to be there at opening (10am) to avoid lineup on sunny weekends. I ordered 3 dishes for 2 people: a duck bun side-dish (doesn't taste the duck much with the sauce/herbs but it's filling), German ravioli (very authentic) and the pain perdu (small dessert-sized portion but well-executed) . Probably order 2 plates / person if you are very hungry.

I've been here multiple times for weekday lunches. Tip: try to get there just a few minutes before noon, come much after and the place will be packed! Good for groups of 2-4, you'll sit either at the bar or small tables. Filled with a lot of young mom types, and classy mile end folks. Come on Friday lunch, and you can order from the brunch menu as well! Butterblume rotates their menu, but always has the same base concepts around their plates. A fav of mine is the Tartine, which is a thick home style bread, topped with a light cheese, a veggies, and some sort of meat. Think of it a bit like Avocado toast 2.0. Friends often like the German dumplings! Another good option would be to get a homemade soup and a few fun slides (rotating). I often will take the cauliflower cake or a fresh cheese. I love their baked goods, and couldn't make it out without one! If their chocolate chip cookies are an option....just take it In my opinion, this place is definitely on the pricier end, but it is clear they have put thought into the ingredients, seasonality, and menu.

Mon expérience est mitigé. Je sais que le monde aime beaucoup. Personellement, je n'ai pas trouvé que ça répondait à mes attentes. Impossible de réservé et l'assise au bar n'est pas très confortable. Je trouvait qu'il manquait des options au menu.

Beautiful on the inside, incredible friendly staff, lots of seating and a really knowledgeable kitchen team. The wine menu was also lovely but my only comment is that as a vegan, there wasn't really anything in terms of lunch options other than a green salad and bread. Both were delicious of course but would have liked to see at least one vegan main.

What can I say? Cool atmosphere - check Great food - check Great coffee - check Vegan options - check So why only 4 stars ? well this is the relatively new trendy place in the area so it tends to get crowded and the service (due to the amount of people) is a little slow. I guess once the buzz chills this will be a solid 5

Such a cute little brunch place, make sure to go early as there's always a line up! I loveeee bringing people here, they always use fresh ingredients and the atmosphere is super cozy and inviting. I always always get the ravioli soup, it's so hearty and savoury and I can never get enough!

Had my first experience at Butterblume today. I found out about it through Eater Montreal. We got there around 1:45 on a Saturday, the place was full so we had to wait around 25 minutes to get a table (for 5). The place is a restaurant, cafe and a boutique which is convenient in case you have to wait as you can get a coffee at the counter and take a look at the small boutique. The menu is very special and not traditional. They have a breakfast and lunch section as well as a small brunch one. The meals are unique, combining interesting ingredients together as well as different textures, and the tastes and flavors are really good. We had the Israeli couscous and salmon salad to share and I had the frittata with tuna for main dish. Both were excellent. The place is nicely decorated, with a lot of white and plants, it is spacious and the acoustic is good. Will definitely go back

First, i would like to congratulate them on their excellent staff service. A gentleman came quickly to greed us. Very friendly and took the time to tell us that a table is almost ready to be leave, so we waited patiently. The place is cozy and clean. As for the food, another spectacular phenomenon! I dont really understand the vegan world and i ordered an Deustch raviolis (raviolis allemand). The taste is succulent and light. Very exquisite mesmerizing scent of herbs. Definitely coming back for more!

A brunch post?! It's been a while hasn't it? Well, my wife and I have crazy schedules which makes weekend brunch a bit of a challenge nowadays. However, a rare opportunity allowed me to meet up with my wife midway through her Saturday workday to finally try a more recent entry in the category of Mile End brunch staple, Le Butterblume. Part coffee shop, part boutique and part restaurant, Le Butterblume offers breakfast and lunch during the week and brunch during the weekend. Headed by Nadine Boudreau and Julie Romano, its location is easy to miss at first - right on the edge between Mile End and Little Italy just before the Van Horne overpass. Le Butterblume is very much an open concept space. There isn't much that separates the boutique front, the cash and bakery counter and then the open kitchen/bar and the seating area in the back. The accents are simple - the brick wall, the open industrial kitchen and then the open garage door with tons of natural sun light coming through with a view of the garden outback. It's simple but very welcoming and comforting. The menu, conceived by Jens Ruoff, is an interesting mix of some German/Austrian influences and more "traditional" brunch fare. My wife and I went with a trio of dishes to share together. First up, a gougère "sandwich" of nordic shrimp, sour cream, apple and pickles. The gougère itself was nice and flaky with that hint of cheese mixed in. The shrimp were very fresh but the dish in the end lack some punch. Also, the portion was limited given the price of the plate. Our second dish fared better. A 'Kaseknodel' or bread pudding of cheddar and parsley served with cole slaw & juniper berry sour cream. Very interesting texture - soft and tender with strong notes of both cheddar and parsley. The slaw had a nice vinegary note to it which paired well with the richer bread pudding. We didn't note the juniper in the sour cream but it mixed well with everything. An excellent side dish although again a little small portion-wise. We went with one main dish to share and it was the highlight of the meal - the marinated eggplant, pepper and chickpea salad topped with grilled halloumi, mint yogourt, Ontario Peaches and served with homemade pitas. The salad itself has tons of flavour with a nice balance of acidity and freshness. The halloumi of course added some richness and saltiness. The creamy yogurt. The sweet peaches. An excellent example of well balanced and very hearty dish. Sitting at the bar, it was the most common thing coming through the kitchen and I can see why. Le Butterblume is a solid brunch spot that is clearly a hit within the Mile End neighbourhood. Nice vibe, good food - well worth a visit if you are around the area. Just be prepared perhaps to wait in line a bit if you visit on the weekend - which is the classic Montreal brunch experience if you think about it ;) Cheers!

Yelp should have a feature where, once a year, you get to rate a restaurant 6-stars. If possible, I'd return to this review annually and give my 6-star review to Le Butterblume. Here's the thing: most restaurants try their hands at brunch and many of them make it passable, but Butterblume brings brunch to a whole new level. It's fun, it's creative and most importantly, it's abso-fucking-lutely delicious. Every bite freezes time as the flavours dance around on your tongue like they're Jennifer Beals in Flashdance. The food transcends time and space. It's like the Doctor Who of the culinary world. I have nothing but good things to say about Butterblume, and while I didn't eat everything on the menu, here's a quick review of the stuff I did have: - Asparagus crepe: - Halloumi salad: - Beans with salmon jerky: - Fresh cheese:

This is a 6 star gig (if 5 is top notch). From todays lunch menu ravioli dish to the impeccably designed, bright open concept, to the (near Narcissus reflective) varnished cement floors, to the takeout courgette cake, to the fact that everything is made fresh on the premises... the busy lunch crowd, the staff and the young proprietress; perfect! A big big labour of commitment, talent and love. . Thank you La Butterblume! My weekend is off to an extraordinarily satisfied start. Worth every nickel! Conveniently located between morning yoga and home. How does it get better? Another freakin fabulous Mile End - Plateau gem!

Yummm what a perfect brunch! I took a Viennese-via-Vancouverite friend who was sooooo delighted to discover some traditional German items on the menu. We ordered the German ravioli and the fried bread and cheese balls, and the green salad and the tartine (basically avocado toast, which annoys me on principle but this was great.) Honestly, literally everything was really great, especially the German goodies! Give them a try! Both of us, almost as soon as we walked in, said: "Well, I'm going to come here all the time." It's breezy and open and light and spacious and the baked goods up front looked glorious. Service was super kind and attentive. Prices are affordable and there are enough different kinds of things on the menu to share a bunch with a group and please all palates. There is beautiful local pottery and bags and plants for sale up front, and lots of bar and counter seating for the laptop warriors. The iced tea was the best I've ever had, and I can't wait to go back for a celebratory brunch with no work ahead of me to enjoy the super affordable and lovely sounding breakfast cocktails. Wonderful new find by the overpass, can't wait to go back!!

This is an awesome place for brunch! I would love to go back soon. They offer brunch from Friday through Sunday starting at 10AM. Located on St-Laurent street just before the underpass before arriving in Little Italy. The space is wide open with a lot of light and an open kitchen. They have a corner at the entry where they sell a few magazines and some flowers. We sat on the counter just in front of the chef teaching her assistant how to make the food. It was definitely interesting to see them make the food, and then hand it over fresh to us directly. I loved the experience. I started with a latte, pretty good but unfortunately too small for the price. I also had the savory pain perdu. It was a piece of bread with little pieces of bacon and cheddar in it, topped with a perfectly cooked poached egg, cheddar and super thin slices of radishes & carrots. My sister had the tartine, which is basically a big toast covered with zucchini cream, ricotta, poached egg, some greens and shaved duck jerky. It looked so good, I stole a couple of bites and it was as tasty as my dish. The service was excellent as well, all the staff was friendly and gave us warm smiles the entire time we were there. For those who are a bit in a rush, you can come grab a coffee to go and pick up one of their pastries to go from their take-out counter.

Wow I was so fascinated by this place when I saw terrific photos and ratings about this place, but I was let down much by the service. Hidden behind their menu is a line of small words saying no laptop in their café from 11 to 2, I had to move from a table to the counter despite ordering food. I was more offended when I had to tell the staff 20 times that I am cold sitting at the counter because they opened the door and the wind was blowing at me directly. I have to admit that the café is beautiful and full of vibrant colours due to many flower decorations. The coffee is okay, and I tried their been, caviar and salmon jerky salad, small portion but quite good. The price is quite high according to me because I find the quantity and quality were not extraordinary, but at least the taste is fresh and they have a variety of choices. The café can get quite crowded and they tend to ask customer alone to move to the counter (which is my case) because the capacity is limited. Try to avoid going there at peak hours (lunch time). The café is also closed fairly early, at 4PM, I find it a bit odd, but anyway it is not likely that I would return due to the bad service I received.

We were staying in Little Italy and decided to venture a bit to Le Butterblume, and am sure glad I did, since this was one of my most memorable meals. Our group of six got seated at the bar, which worked out well, since it was cool to see all the beautiful plated dishes. I went with the ravioli and this was sooo good and filling. All the ingredients complemented each other quite nicely. Everyone else enjoyed their meals as well. Prices were fair and service was great.

There's a lot of personality and refinement at this cafe-restaurant. I visited on a Saturday afternoon, and the location was crowded, so we got tea, a cherry brownie, and a scone with butter and jam to go as a lil snack. The flavours of the sweets were not overbearing; they were nuanced and really tasty. The location itself is simplistic and beautiful, but the character shines through in the food, service, and rustic hand-written cafe sign. If you're in the area, it's worth a try!

This café, recently opened, has a short but interesting menu that includes items suitable for brunch or lunch. They make their own bread, which I assume is used for the tartines -- haven't yet tried. The service is friendly, and the decor fairly simple but attractive (bit of a Scandinavian feel). I'll be back. Second visit: had a delicious smoked avocado tartine with a poached egg on top and excellent bread from Butterblume's ovens underneath. Delicious.

This is by far my favourite brunch place!! I came around 10:30 (they open at 10) and the wait was already 15-20 mins. I got the bok choy, carrot, bacon cheese toast with a poached egg on top ($14). It's one of their usual items on their menu. For brunch, they change their menu weekly, so you're in for a surprise each time you go! I also shared their house made sourdough bread with homemade jam. It was so delicious. My friend and I both got lattes which were slightly cheaper than your usual latte for $3.50 rather than $4. The aesthetic is really nice, so be sure to take pictures. This place really reminded me of Olive and Gourmando because it's much more veggie based and they really use the most intricate combinations of food. The baked goods looked really good as well, but we were too full to get them.

We really enjoyed our meal here - a nice lunch of Ravioli Allemand and Avocado tartelline. For desert carrot cake and poppyseed cake. The food was really good, the service friendly and attentive despite being busy. The decor is simple chic - very bright and clean and the back has a garage door that opens up and gives a nice breeze. Definitely a spot we will come back to!

An excellent place to visit for breakfast or brunch! Occupies a former industrial bakery. Exposed brick walls, modern design, small tables, and counter seating. Freshly baked goods are on display for ether a to-go purchase or for indulging with a cup of freshly ground and brewed coffee. Menu is modern with familiar ingredients but with a twist. Very busy with young upscale professionals crowd. Cauliflower cake and mushroom tartine are amazing.

Stopped by Butterblume since it was so highly rated on Yelp. It's a cute location. Popular as it was packed at 2pm with a long wait. Breakdown of 3/5 rating: -The menu is pretty small but with fresh ingredients -Ordered their only toast on the menu, cauliflower toast, pork bun, and muesli... recommend the cauliflower toast and toast (looks like it changes often) -They don't really have a good waitlist system. When we walked in, no one came up to ask how many, etc and there was a large number of people waiting. When the host/server started taking names, it wasn't in order of the line. She approached whoever was closest to her at the moment and jotted their names down on a post-it. Took about 30 minutes to seat the two of us. -Nothing too special and coffee wasn't amazing--- overall just meh.

I'm still tasting the meal I had here. Completely delicious. Had FOMO after looking at the menu. Can't wait to eat there again. One downside - hard to get a table, but understandable.

Not just a plain avocado toast but with substance and actually worth the $12+! We also had the German ravioli which was perfect for a frigid day. Minus for the uncomfortable chairs and tables which are instagramable but impractical. Coffee was excellent. I had the apricot pistachio cookie which was also good. Overall happy I waited 30mkns for Sunday brunch!

I almost don't want to give it 5 stars because I don't want to wait in longer lines! I love that this spot opened up in Mile End - it's perfect! It's cosy, but not super tiny so that you don't have to wait an hour for a spot to open it. The food is unique and delicious and it looks like they frequently have special items in addition to what's listed on their menu. Came here on a Sunday for the brunch, but looking forward to coming back during the week when it's more chill. Oh yea before I go - we had a lentil dish, chicken savory crepe, a side of bread and this butternut squash puree. Everything was super super tasty. A special shout out to the bread, which came straight out of the oven (or at least tasted like it) and was particularly delicious.

I remember biking pass Butterblume in the summer and thought 'hey, that wasn't there before!' before wandering in and speaking with a lady, who informed me that they've actually just opened two weeks ago. Well, I've finally made the time to go back and it's quite the delight! Good: I adore the mini boutique and make your own bouquet idea. They carry Montreal brands, so extra points for supporting local! Butterblume has a charming interior that looks like it came out of a Pinterest account, which is very fitting for the Mile End scene. I came here for brunch and I've ordered the beets salad. It tasted amazing and looked incredibly pretty. Their cookies are also amazing, soft chewy and really rich. My sister ordered the roasted butternut squash, thyme, poached egg, pancetta & pumpkin seeds on bread, which is another flavourful dish. Bad: Too bad the portions were a bit small because I still felt hungry after eating. I was not a fan of the ravioli, maybe because it looked an oversize wonton. Bottom line: Definitely try it at least once. Maybe order a dish and another to share because the portions aren't exactly generous, but the food was so darn good!

Not many options for breakfast and they change their menu often so don't rely on what you see here. Their latté was so good, I ordered a second!

This was the first restaurant I stepped foot in in Montreal, as it was recommended by two of my friends. However, I was highly disappointed. Mainly due to the service. But I can see why it has high ratings, it's a cute-hip place with a very modern vibe. A trendy place, but defs not an spot that had been around for long. People that i talked to and have lived in Montreal for over 20 years have never heard of the place. But let's start with the food and then I will talk about the service. The ingredients in the chickpea/peach/eggplant salad we ordered were fresh and flavours mixed well together. It was a good portion and you would get sick of it after a few bites so defs to share would be best. The ravioli was too heavy for me. It came with 3 thick pieces. Wish they made it a bit more delicate and small. Again, you get sick after a few bites. The broth wasn't light, very rich and flavourful. There wasn't much texture in the dish, the filling was just bland and green which wasn't very appealing. About the service, it was one of those places that did bare minimum. The staff wasn't friendly at all, to not topping off our water, introducing the menu, or smiling. It's like those places, u can't exactly pinpoint one thing that they did horribly but it's like the feeling where you're trying to have a conversation with someone but you know they're really not feeling it. But this is a restaurant we're talking about! Bottomline, I did not feel welcomed at all. Not sure if it's the stuck up culture in Montreal but I was not impressed.

I love that place ! Their homemade bread with their homemade jam is amazing ! Really soft bread with a crunchy crust ... The entire menu is strange at first, there is always one unexpected ingredient in each plate but the result is always a great surprise. They know how to mix flavors. The place is also nice, really cute and minimalist. Negative point: only few tables so be early for the brunch or ready to wait To try: Bread

Brunch at the next level, it is more like a fancy saturday night dinner but they made it so you have no guilt in having it for brunch. The bread is fresh from the oven to the table which is a great concept. The porc i had was delicious there was at least 5 different flavours and sauce. My bf had the pancake that bread looked very fluffy. The only reason i didn't gave a 5 stars is because they have absolutely zero gluten free choice so they had non consideration for celiac person like me and i find it very irresponsable as a restaurateur nowadays to not be able to accomodate custumers with allergies. The hostess did gave the option to have granola in yogourt but what's the point of coming to a place like this and order something i eat every morning. So i had to peel the bread crumb from my porc dish which was contaminated with gluten so i got sick. Not pleasant.

We arrived a bit before opening and there was a line forming! Obviously this place is the bomb!!!! Modern interior, a variety of seating options, mostly food and drink but a bit of merch too.

Not sure what butter blume translates to but WOW! I loved this place. Buttered and blumed I was! Decor is amazing, food was amazing, and service was amazing. Very impressed by all the attention they pay to detail. The onions were sliced so evenly and beautifully. Like why am I even writing about onions?! Because it was THAT impressive. Everything on my plate was intentional. Would love to be back someday!

Visited this place last fall and still talk about it. Their brunch menu is perhaps the best I've ever had. I went with a friend and ordered their house sourdough with apple-infused butter, deviled eggs with miso, and a cup of tea. Can't remember what my friend ordered, but his conclusions were the same as mine: Presentation was absolutely perfect, menu offerings were creative and unique, and everything tasted better than you'd have believed possible for a few relatively simple dishes at an affordable price (I think I paid about 13 CAD for the above, and I was full). Atmosphere is great. Had to wait about twenty minutes for a seat on a Saturday morning. Sat at the bar and loved watching the open kitchen at work. Will be sure to visit again if I ever make my way back to Montreal.

Place is absolutely adorable. The service was great. I stopped for some chai tea and would love to go back. It was very busy during lunch time. The plates looked delicious, I definitely need to try their food.

Had a delicious brunch here one Saturday morning. I had the leek cake, which was awesome. Will come back to try the other dishes. I definitely recommend it!
