Where to Go for a Brilliant Weekday Breakfast in Montreal
"The fabulously popular Régine offers a whopper of a breakfast menu at 9 a.m. every day of the week. Known to serve a breakfast fancier than at your standard Montreal diner, its menu includes items like corn waffles with smoked salmon, grilled cheese with aged cheddar and caramelized onions, and a decadent French toast with strawberries and mascarpone cream. Régine’s sister establishment, Janine, offers breakfast in Verdun from Wednesday to Sunday." - Valerie Silva, Holly Tousignant

25 Best Restaurants in Montreal | Condé Nast Traveler
"Far from the glitz of downtown and the scene of the Plateau, Rosemont offers a glimpse at the gritty side of Montreal, and brunch at Régine Café is an unmissable experience. On warm summer weekends, people line up for hours just to snag a table. Inside, it's a bustling scene, with servers slinging decadent, inviting plates—and eager brunchers waiting to gobble up them up. If you appreciate a proper croissant oozing with aged cheddar and pulled ham and hearty plates of eggs, step right up." - Todd Plummer, Isa Tousignant

"Wildly popular Régine draws line-ups for its brunch most weekends, but here's a tip — they do it on weekdays, too. A classic approach with creative touches makes it shine — the corn waffle with smoked salmon or the coconut milk and mango jam oatmeal are just a few examples." - Tim Forster, Holly Tousignant, Valerie Silva
We were welcomed by hot tea which I loved on a cold day. The dishes were all great. The decorations are beautiful for taking pictures. Staff are nice and helpful and even some might not speak English, they try to address your needs.

We have been to Regine 3 times over the last years! It’s always delicious, cozy, well presented. I love the homemade marshmallows. I also dream about their scone covered in the mascarpone cream plus strawberry rosemary jam. I like to get the platter to taste all the pastries and dips (banana butter and peanut crunch are also amazing!!). The service is always on point, extremely kind and efficient staff. Only
thing I didn’t like last time was the croissant which was a bit dry. The rest was amazing as usual. We went on monday morning and it was almost full but we didn’t wait at all. Prepare to wait 20-30 minutes on the weekends to get in on the weekends.

Visited for brunch and will go back again! The attention to detail from beginning to end was exceptional. The portions are beyond generous and the menu is original, interesting and inviting. Their homemade juice, delicious… had my mimosa made with it. The decor is great and well spaced tables.

Interiors are very well designed, very retro, and staff are friendly, warn, and very attentive. 🥰
They don't take reservations on weekends and holidays. Hence, we there 20 minutes wait in line to get in however you can reseve on weekdays!!
It's definitely worth the money for service and food 👌 😍

The first thing about this place: the barista makes the cutest coffee ever. See the image if you do not believe me. That said the espresso was amazing too.
This cafe was a recommendation and I was glad we went here. The ambience is chic, and vibrant. They have two large medium halls and yet there is a queue up in front. The charming thing is, they offer you tea while you wait.
We were welcomed with a refreshing drink as we sat down and Zoe who waited on us, was impeccable with her service. She knew the dishes and was spot on with her suggestions.
The food tasted as good as they looked.
Overall a great experience!
