Impressed with our whole experience. We were greeted and seated promptly. Our server was friendly and professional even though she was busy. Our meals came out in good time and we're amazing. I can't wait to go back.

Probably one of the best locations in town. Service was great despite it being rush hour. While Cora is definitely on the upper end of pricing, the food tasted great and was presented exactly as per the photos on the menu. Would recommend!

We can’t recommend Coras Restaurant enough! As a regular breakfast visitor, we’ve always been impressed by the consistently outstanding food and service. The menu offers a fantastic variety of delicious options, from classic favorites to unique twists that keep me coming back for more. The staff is truly exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always ready with a warm smile. They make you feel like part of the family, which enhances the dining experience. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for starting the day right. If you're looking for a breakfast spot where quality and hospitality shine, Coras is the place to be!

Our server was on her second day and she was a delight! Made our dining experience for sure. Food is good, pricey but a nice treat once in a while.

At the beginning, the service was fast. Got my order under twelve minutes . But we did another 5 minutes to get a coffee when I got my order. It was a little cold. Put an alarm to add and see my waitress for a little while. She did not come and see if I was OK or if I needed more coffee. I have to ask a different waitress to give me A refill on my copy. And she only put half of my cup. After that I would another 15 minutes before one of them came by and asked me if I wanted my bill. The restaurant was in busy enough to forget about me.

Took a bit to be seated, but our server was amazing and very efficient. Food arrived and it was delicious and fresh. The one issue I had was that my latte was served cold with no foam which was disappointing. So I had to order tea which was a better choice. Also, our seating was very tight and uncomfortable. All and all it was a very nice experience.

Started going for breakfast as I started working in the area, first 2 times I ordered from the early bird menu at 6:30 and was told the second time I was not allowed to order from the early bird for takeout… third time I ordered 2 eggs, bacon, and a blueberry pancake. Cost me 22$ from the regular menu and the food was not great. I always tip and am happy to get breakfast but 22$ a day is ridiculous

The service was fantastic! We did go in a large group so I understand that some food may be done sooner than others, however my omelette was not good at all - over done and dried out. It seemed as if it was placed under a heat lamp for an extended period of time. Was quite disappointed in the food.

Server was good, until I spotted overcharges on the bill. The breakfast was completely inedible... Rotton spinach killed my apetite. Years ago, Coras was reliable, but the last few visits confirm to me that food quality has plummeted while the prices skyrocketed.

So for the price its good value for money. The service, however, was average. I asked for a dairy-free smoothie and they made me one with it. When I told my server he assured me that it didnt have yogurt. However, my whole family tasted it and it tasted like yogurt. Im allergic! I gave my drink to my 8 year old son and I didnt drink the whole meal. I paid for a smoothie that I didnt drink. We also waited a long time before being given a table, especially since we had reserved before.

Always delicious food. I had a crepe topped with fresh fruit and cream, my partner had Ben and Dictin eggs and our child had a crumbled crepe with egg and ham. The childrens menu is excellent with several varied choices. Coffee is expensive for the quality and quantity, it is worth it if you intend to drink several cups (refills). The service was excellent.

Way overpriced, homefries were cold, fruit was turning brown.

July 23, 2024

Some menus are broken and felt sticky and not very clean. I odered a veggie omelette without Ham and Tomatoes. I wanted mushrooms instead. The waiter told me that I would be charged extra for mushrooms! Why I would be charged extra for mushrooms if I removed tomatoes and Ham from my dish? I refused the idea and left the restaurant immediately without ordering anything. Restaurants must be generous and more welcoming.

Lettuce was rotted. Fruit was going bad. Coffee was tasteless and cost more than Tim Hortons. 90 bucks for a subpar breakfast for a family of 4. Id recommend going to Broadways instead

★★

Prices have gone up to the point of absurdity. The food is fine, but certainly not worth $30 for breakfast. Used to come here semi-regularly, but its gone beyond the point of being justifiable so we wont be returning

The staff a the Cora on St Laurent are so kind and helpful. They went above and beyond for our Dad when he was craving an omelette after 2 days of fasting in hospital, reheating the stove after the restaurant had just closed to make it happen. They showed kindness when they probably wanted to close up, and we are very grateful. This restaurant really showed heart. Thank you!

I went here last Sunday and the hosting staff were very nice! I liked the fruit variety, very tasty and fresh. I also had a latte which was a nice treat! Brianna was our server and was very friendly, attentive, and overall fantastic!! It was clear that it was very busy, but she took the time to make sure we had a nice experience and ensured my allergies were well taken care of. After this experience, we will definitely be coming back!

Had a small gathering for a friend, service was lacking although the place was not overly busy, everyone received their meals except 2 of us. The waitress was apologetic, but still needed to wait 5 mins longer. We always had to ask for coffee or table syrup or condiments. The waitress was very friendly just seemed overly preoccupied.

We were seated quickly. The staff were kind and attentive. The food left to be desired. I was not a fan of the breakfast potatoes at all. They are wedged potatoes that are under cooked in the middle due to size. The sausage in the breakfast poutine was the super processed kind not normally found with breakfast. The hollandaise sauce was on point tho! Dietary restrictions: They were good with omitting items from my dish. They did have gluten free options!

This Cora restaurant is my first stop every Saturday morning. The service is mostly great, but getting seated can be slow at times, depending on who are the hostesses. The food is great too. My favourites include the Eggs Benedict (Salmon), 10 Star Omelette and the pancakes. Oh, and I always start off with a Lattè. Parking: One disabled parking spot is available, but the parking lot at the front is quite small. More parking is available at the back, including one other disabled parking spot. Wheelchair accessibility: This restaurant is accessible if your chair is not too wide. There are tight corners in the entrance. Washroom has accessible stall but no automated doors.

Service was good. Not remarkable, but thats expected anywhere. They serve potatoes, which are potato/home fry hybrids. Good in concept, but undercooked for all three of our meals. I had the three meat burger. It wasnt bad, but didnt surpass anything I can do at home. I discovered that deli ham on a burger isnt necessarily a good idea. The Holly Poutine (Hollandaise, cheese and potatoes), would have been fantastic if cooked properly, and in moderation. Very rich. The other plates at my table looked good (crepes and scrambled eggs), but again, not exceptional. In my opinion, any small diner, not chain operated, would probably serve a much superior midday meal. We dont eat out very often, so I cant compare pricing. Thanks for reading.

Theres a reason why I stopped coming here over a year ago but today I decided to give it a second chance and boy I wish I didnt. Im down 40 bucks for a meal I could have made better at home. The tomatoes arent ripe and when I mentioned this to the waitress, she just brought the same ones out again. They genuinely served me burnt toast and when I mentioned that my toast was clearly burnt, the waitress said well thats just how we make it here, like huh?! The turkey sausages were gross and very clearly microwaved as they were still frozen in the center. Didnt bother complaining about that though complaining about the toast and tomatoes didnt get me anywhere. If my server was friendly I probably would have just accepted that this isnt the spot for me and moved on, but the terrible service mixed with the terrible food inclined me to review and warn people to steer clear!

Its a roll of the dice as to which part of your breakfast will be rotten/soured. Fruit or beans or creton. Always take very small nibbles first. Can you imagine the state of their walk-in cooler? Calling Gordon Ramsay....

Amazing staff and lovely waitress. When it comes to the food though i dont feel like you get the value for what you pay for. I ordered a brioche elise i think it was, supposed to be brioche dipped in french toast batter, along the lines of that. But it honestly looked and tasted like it was cut up cinnamon buns with cream and berries top. Extremelyyyy sweet, felt like i was inhaling sugar at that point. Personally it was not worth $22

December 23, 2023

Stopped by for lunch on the way to Montreal. THIS had to be the worst food ever. 3 of us dined and all our dishes were cold, food burnt took 10 min to deliver toast as food got colder. It was dirty dingy and my bill was almost 80.00 for plates we pretty much didnt touch as it was unedible

My experience here was terrible. We were seated and then no one came to check on us. No server came and offered us water or took our order. We sat there for what felt like an eternity. We finally got up and left because the servers were just standing around chatting. They seemed like they had no interest in taking our order or even doing their job properly. My wife and I love coming here for breakfast all the time but we may not anymore because the service is so terrible. Please fix your servers attitudes because the service is sorely lacking today! We ended up going to Tim Hortons and eating in the car

The sandwich was not delicious at all. I had to eat it because I had to pay for it. Plus, the salad was stale. It was definitely made using the pre-washed salads you can find at grocery stores as I could smell the preservatives. Strawberries on the picture are also stale and not good to eat. It was my first time and will be my last time going there. I do NOT recommend this place.

Unfortunately I had a terrible breakfast along with the company that also dined with me. The fruit was not ripe, potatoes were stone cold, pancakes burned.

I was told to do it online. I ordered online like the restraint told me and ordered the items I asked about on the phone. When I arrived I was told that infact the dish for my wife was not GF. I was told to cancel the order online. I showed the hostess my phone asking her to show me how to cancel. She said she would get the manager. I waited approx 10 minutes. No manager. I asked the hostess again. The message was oh we can t cancel orders from our website . So I m out 60 bucks for food she can t eat. After following this restraurants exact directions and advice regarding food for a person with celiac. I m standing here at the front counter still waiting for my food. Wonder if the manager will come even talk to me. 25 minutes since I was told to place my order online. Do not recommend at all this location. Dietary restrictions: Do not go here for GF or celiac. Don t listen to the staff.

Found a hair in my food. Told my server. They have an open kitchen you can hear them talk at your table. One of the staff said I took the hair from my head. The hair was black my hair is white blonde. Worst experience ever at Cora s or any restaurant I have ever been too. I will never recommend coras to anyone I know .

Really disappointing. We understand the delays to be seated and for food to come because there was a staff shortage, but the quality of the food was awful: overcooked, dry eggs; undercooked yet burned potatoes, cardboard toast, bad coffee, old fruit. Neither breakfast had any redeeming qualities. This is our last time here.

Came here with my son, food was good, it was quite busy but we still had a good experience. We asked for the bill and the waitress tipped herself (when she put the bill into the machine, she also hit tip + 18%). I always tip at restaurants, always! But I didnt appreciate the waitress doing it for me, thats not right.

I always love Coras. Food is always good. Fruits are fresh. Staff is friendly. The only downfall is that its a bit pricey so I keep for a once in a while treat.

The food was pretty good but the service was very slow. Granted, they were quite busy!!!! We had a better experience at the Ottawa, Hunt Club location.

The staff there were lovely, they just needed more of them on a Friday morning. Vegetarian options: Plenty of options Dietary restrictions: Able to accommodate - we had a vegan in our group and the meal was exceptional.

The head chief, guy named Ali, was speaking, short of yelling for about 40 minutes on and off. Customers heads kept watching what was going on. Over simple things, made for a uncomfortable eating experience. Shame, people dont have much time to relax, to have to go through this.

I personally will not be returning with my girlfriends and family. This is not the atmosphere that I want to be paying for. The service staff is superb, but on the other hand, I do not come for the form of entertainment the manager (who is very adamant thats what he is, kitchen manager) puts on. I, on some visits, I would hear him yell at staff for a very long time. Clear as day, turning heads in the restaurant. I now enjoy a peaceful environment at the Lincoln Fields location.
