too expensive for what you’re getting. I got the smoked salmon toast and there are no sides for $20+. Although it did taste great! The iced chai latte was absolutely delicious

Had breakfast with a couple of buddies. Service was friendly and efficient. Prices were a bit higher than the competition. Granola with fruit, yoghurt and fruit was a generous portion and recommended. Coffee wasn’t to my liking and could use an upgrade on the blend. Place was quiet at 9 am but got busy at 10:30 am. Would go back.

The ambiance of the place is amazing. The staff are amazing quick to refill our water we didn’t even have to ask, fast service. The food is good, mixture of light and heavy.

Very pretty location - it has a tropical vibe to it, very different, so love this about the restaurant. I visited twice in the last few months; the service the first time was on par (very busy Mother’s Day - extremely loud - but waitress was present and attentive); the service during my 2nd visit was quite lacking (resto was not busy at all and the waiter kept taking breaks at the bar, on his phone - had to flag him down a couple of times). The various food dishes that we chose were good. The only dish (of those we tried) that stood out and was quite delicious, is the French toast with ice cream! The hot/cold combination in each bite was a surprise every time! A must-try. Although, as you see in my picture, they are a little stingy on the ice cream lol. Would go back if opportunity arose.

Got the Shakshuka with halloumi and labneh, it was good. The restaurant was beautiful and clean. The host was nice and welcoming. The server was unfriendly and gave bare minimum effort, she failed to check on us. She just took our order, gave our food, and gave our bill. Music did not match the atmosphere. We definitely did not want to be listening to techno rave music during breakfast.

★★
July 14, 2024

It took at least 15 min for the waiter to come see us. Our coffees came quickly but the smoothie came after the food came, 30 min after we ordered. Food was good. The terrace and interior are very nice. The girl and boy responsible for water outside were very nice, kept our glasses full. The rest of the service seemed poorly organized.

Stepping into Pigeon Café feels like entering a cozy oasis. You're greeted by a charming interior adorned with plenty of greenery and, notably, live flowers adorning each table. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a meal. One of the highlights of Pigeon Café is the warm and welcoming atmosphere. Unlike many establishments, the staff here go above and beyond to ensure a personalized experience. Instead of simply seating us at any available table, our waiter kindly allowed us to choose our own spot. As for the food, it exceeded my expectations. My steak was cooked to perfection, boasting impeccable flavor and tenderness. The accompanying sauce was a true culinary delight, elevating the dish to new heights. And let's not forget the dessert selection, which offered a tantalizing array of options to satisfy any sweet tooth. Last but certainly not least, a mention must be made of the coffee. Rich, aromatic, and expertly brewed, it provided the perfect ending to an already exceptional meal. Overall, I highly recommend visiting Green Haven Cafe for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Its unique charm and excellent service make it a standout dining destination.

I love the ambiance and the food. It’s a very well thought through space and the owner must have a great sense of humour😅! The waiters are very polite and patient and if you are not careful you could stay through brunch to dinner, I have fallen prey of this. Overall absolutely love it and it’s cute hilarious touches. I am a repeat offender here

The atmosphere and the service are usually on point. The servers are always very sweet and helpful . The food is ok, but it s also mostly a lounge/coffee place so do expect over the top food. I ordered a fillet and it was kind of dry and very small , spent 40$ on it. Not worth it. It s best to go for something lighter like their sandwiches, burgers, salads and pasta. Overall the food is 3.5/5.

My wife got a smoothie here and then had food poisoning. We shared everything else she had that day.

★★★
December 2, 2024

I opted for steak and eggs, and I must say that the presentation of the dish was neat and original. However, once in the mouth, the experience was much less pleasant. The steak and sauce were way too salty which really ruined the overall taste of the dish. Another rather disturbing detail: the dish was served to me on a wooden tray which, although pretty, seemed quite damaged, with visible cracks. I cant help but think about the health risks that this could cause, particularly with rare meat, which is, in my opinion, unacceptable in terms of food safety. Cross contamination and the risks of bacteria such as salmonella are points to really take into account.

I love this place but the service was really bad.. Sunday around 10:00am we have to wait a lot for coffee also wait a lot for hot water for my te, really disappointed; the place was not full but the servers were not proactive, I told with two o three for the coffee they are super fast for pay the machine give 3 options for tip start with 18% why? I changed and I pay 15% but they don t deserved that ,

Worse service ever. The place is empty and it takes 10 min for someone to sit us. We ask for menus, we waited an eternity. Barely no one there and zero service, waitress looked high out of her mind. Asked a boss boy for help and waitress still didn t bring us menus. We ended up just leaving and go somewhere else, never again. Looking at other reviews and it seems like a trend.

October 23, 2024

Absolutely terrible service. Made us wait forever to get seated, even with the place practically empty, the staff looked drugged up and high out of there mind. One waiter was arguing with what seems to be his girlfriend in middle of resto. We waited until we got fed up and left without placing an order. Terrible place. I do not recommend

Rip off for the price

September 23, 2024

Never again. Ordered basic 2 eggs bacon breakfast. Asked for the eggs over easy , received my eggs over cooked sunny side up. Like it was a rubber saucer disk. Asked the waitress if she could get the eggs fixed and I d like them over easy , Received next set of eggs sunny side up again, but slight less cooked. I wasn t going to send them back again, and I m not sure if the waitress didn t communicate over easy or the cooks don t know what over easy is? But it s really the most basic breakfast, over priced and poor quality. I will not be returning.

Excellent coffee, good service.

September 23, 2024

My wife and I walked in at 3:00 pm. The person at the front counter told us to choose a table. We sat down and it took 20 min before someone came to see us. I actually stopped the bus boy to ask if we can see a waiter. He gave us water and menus. Less than one minute later the waiter comes to see us for our order. I told him we just got our menus. He said he d be back in 5 min. 15 min later finally another waitress comes to see us for our order and apologizes for the wait. Apparently there was a miscommunication between servers. Meanwhile clients coming in after us had been seated and got their food before we even ordered. Finally we ordered 2 coffees and a brownie a la mode. Awful dessert. Cold brownie and freezer burn vanilla ice cream. Our total bill came out 22.08$ Horrible service and horrible food. Not recommending this place

Very pretty place, music a little loud, you have to speak loudly to hear each other, its a vibe but not for everyone. The service was non-existent or even bad, waitress who doesnt know her menu, waiting time for her to come to our table and for us to receive the order is much too long (no rush and more). Incomplete order once received, price too high for poor quantity and quality. Really disappointed but at least the place is beautiful

The restaurant itself is gorgeous and very inviting in terms of aesthetic and atmosphere. When I got there, there is a sign saying wait to be seated, but I was pretty much ignored by the gentleman at the bar area and I had to ask if I could just go seat myself. There was a total of 8 guests at the restaurant not including my party of 3 and it took at least 20 minutes to be asked whether I would like a cup of coffee and service in itself for everyone, was very inattentive. We were all flagging our servers down to either order or grab the check which is inexcusable when it s that quiet in a restaurant. My dish was overly salted, and the latkes were completely bland, but I m hoping this experience was a one off and I m willing to give this restaurant another try. Hopefully it will be a better experience!

Im not sure what the issue was today, but the service was extremely slow. Ordered coffee again 11am, arrived 15 minutes later. Ordered food, arrived 30 minutes later. Our entire experience was 1h30, which can be good for some people but we had small children with us... There was also multiple people who were serving us, so there could have been delays with communication. I also went straight to the bar to ask for water no ice and I actually never got it. Lastly, we were not given kids menus and so, we ordered full size meals for them and saw kids menus with coloring sheet/crayons in passi ng at reception. Very disappointed...

My visit to Le Pigeon restaurant was a remarkable experience, marked by exceptional cuisine where each dish served as a culinary journey. The warm atmosphere, highlighted by careful decoration and perfectly chosen music, made our evening special. The service was not up to standard, a 2-star slow motion service which made everything unpleasant. It should be noted that the prices are somewhat very exaggerated. A movktail a starter spinach dip 2 salads 2 coffee 1 dessert bisquit all for this costs $118. Le Pigeon remains a must-visit destination for those looking to savor a premium dining experience in a relaxing and welcoming atmosphere.

Very good food and beautiful place. The music is a little loud to be able to chat at the table. Service ok but nothing more until the bill.. the waiter stayed behind the person paying the whole time and looked insistently.. he wanted to see the code? Did he want to see his tip? Even with a $10 tip, not a thank you from him. Big lack of professionalism. In general we look elsewhere when the customer makes their PIN.

May 23, 2024

I like the food I like the place but my last visit for 15 min these young girls that work there were dragging tables and it was so annoying!!!!

As a Saturday get together of 5 best friends, we are told upon arrival 2 hr is allocated. We arrived at 9:15 and at 11 we are told our table is reserved for other customers.

First of all, I want to say I love the atmosphere of this place (bit too loud on the music sometimes) but its my favorite place to have coffee with my girlfriends. The downside for me, is that thats all I can have, coffee. There arent any vegan or vegan friendly options in the menu, maybe fries, but those are available everywhere..would love to see at least one vegan option on the menu. Its easy and low cost to add. Lovely place though

Ordering a simple two-egg breakfast, you expect to get 2 pieces of toast. Instead, they embarrassingly cheap out and take one tiny piece of toast and cut it into two. I asked for tea. Typically you bring a little metal teapot. Instead, they bring the tea bag and the cup. Tea is best enjoyed steeped. Most decent restaurants offer this. We werent checked on during the meal, or offered more hot water or coffee. When I motioned the server over to ask for more hot water, she was about to go get it without asking if my friend wanted more coffee, which she did. My friend had a simple salad with no meat in it. The bill was 47$ plus tip. The place was empty, so its not as if the servers were under stress. Perhaps theyre getting that chain attitude, where quality and customer service starts to slip.

First time visiting. Definitely a place I would visit again as it is something visually appealing apart from the great service and food it was very joyful. I tried their breakfast menu and specifically the shakshuka. Great presentation overall, great quality ingredients and mix of Punchy flavors with the pine nuts pomegranates sauce bread and halloum cheese to name a few. The tomato sauce was a tad on the acidic side, otherwise wow. And yes, a proper freshly squeezed orange juice to add to the delight. I am definitely going to try other items next time around. Vegetarian options: Shakshuka and some salads

March 23, 2024

Went for Friday brunch, No smiles from our waitress, Jasmine, felt rushed to order, didnt repeat the order. table was wobbly when I told her about it , I got attitude but it got corrected. Ordered 2 eggs with extra sausage. Only received the sausage not the bacon with it, but charged the extra $5. If the waitress had showed up to check if everything was OK maybe it could ve got corrected. HORRIBLE SERVICE ! Water wasnt filled, plates were taken away before they were finished. Small, COLD portions for the price being paid. Check out your Dinner menu? No thanks. If the manager actually sees these numerous reviews about service they would correct their waitresses. By the way there is a kids Menu but it wasnt available which doesnt make sense. Kid-friendliness: There is no kids menu, even though they bring you a lids menu so kids can draw on

The occasion was a reunion of colleagues for Sunday brunch. I am a vegan and was pleased that an oat milk latté was suggested for me to drink. I ordered an avocado toast with a substitution of hummus instead of feta cheese. I was a little disappointed when a slice of toast arrived, topped with the avocado, a spring mix of greens, and a drizzle of vinagrette, on a bare white plate. Not even a few slices of tomato to give the plate some color. Thank goodness my friends had fries with their orders (which they were not allowed to eat), so I was able to reap the benefits. I was just a little underwhelmed. Parking: There is plenty of parking, just be mindful to leave space for others. Kid-friendliness: High chairs are available.

This is by far our favorite place! The food is just wow, incredible their blueberry pancakes are to die for! The service is amazing, we have a toddler who isn t always patient & the employee was kind, compassionate, made sure the food came out quickly & gosh did I ever love my coffee at the moment it was needed! The place is beautiful, I love the cote vertu location, family friendly, amazing food, it s a must try! Make sure to either reserve your spot or get there early! Kid-friendliness: Food came out quickly, they really payed attention to our toddler, got him a spoon quickly, fresh squeezed orange juice it s def family friendly

Nice place, but the service is slow and its pricey for what you get. Waffle fries are good, but the portion is super small... one person can easily eat two of those orders. For the price, youre expecting a big portion. Food

Dont let Cafe in places name fool you, its a full sit down restaurant. I did not sit for a meal. Before anyone sits down, first check out their menu and prices.

Our party of 3 found that the food is pricey ($122 incl tax) and lacks the extras, like toast & coffee, that other breakfast specialists include. Taste is ok but eggs were uniformly way under-cooked for my taste. Biggest complaints come from the menu in fine print - I could not read it, and, the incredibly NOISY venue. Not a comfortable place to enjoy company and conversation - had to scream to hear each other. Took quite a while after we sat down before we were noticed and the waiter never actually asked me what I wanted to eat!!

Great place to have brunch, family friendly. Had Merguez Shakshouka for the first time and loved it! I can have this every morning, it s so tasty and filling! Also had their Caramel Latte and, though I didn t really taste the Caramel flavour, I appreciated the non-dairy options for their coffees. Would come back!

The cup is not cleaned and you can see lipstick mark on it. Apparently they don t bother to check it before making a cup of coffee. When I told the waiter I want to exchange a new one and showed him the dirty cup, he just simply said ok. No apology at all. Worlds worst coffee indeed!

Poor service. Very sneeky when taking your order without specifying that there is an extra cost for some sides. I asked for a specific kind of tea and they brought another (that has cafeine) without saying anything. That contributes to a mediocre experience. Very noisy atmosphere.

It was a very bad experience, Ive been there before (in VSL), but definitely not coming back and really dont recommend it. When getting the bill, where I was being charged a dessert I didnt order, I noticed also an extra cost for a salad that the waiter gave me as an option of side dish but never mentioned it was extra, very tricky. As a feedback, we told the guy at the cash, who acted very condescending just nodding not saying anything and then he brought the manager. The manager came with an even more condescending attitude with the menu on his hand saying that in the menu it says green salad, so everything else is extra, like I should now. Then he came on mansplaining the same thing over and over and finally what do you want? Never I heard an apology for the misunderstanding, or even acknowledging that they could improve their service. Thats the only thing I was expecting but clearly they got a non-service oriented manager that makes all the staff feel they are doing you a huge favor by just being there and of course deserving a minimum 18% tip pre-set. Also the ambience is really loud, but if theres good service, that wouldnt have mattered that much.

Let me be clear, the food is great, always is. Theyre weak spot is delivery, I would have to say, I order in a lot due to specific issues and I love the food here, but without exaggeration, when I order my order is usually wrong about 90% of the time. I mean just take a few more seconds to double check the order.

Very well-designed location. I would add that tables are too tall for both chairs and banquets. Food is good. Service is friendly. A large party with dancing (large speaker) was going on in about half the restaurant when we were there and I found it very loud and not very pleasant first experience for my little party of three. I would try it again.

We had a baby naming event at this location and were very happy. The food, staff and atmosphere was great. - Staff: Sean and the team are amazing, working hard to ensure everyone felt comfortable. They were attuned to our needs before, during and after the event. Lovely staff - Food: The food was great and everyone enjoyed it - Atmosphere: The decor is really nice, creating a great atmosphere. It feels as though we are dining at a tropical city - a vacation in our city. Really had a great time!

I went there a few days ago by myself. I had the pigeon salad and a caramel latte. I found the place beautifully decorated and well-thought visually. Service was also very good and timely I really enjoyed my food and drink. Personally, I would think the place would benefit from a change of music. Hits song were playing while I was there and I find it doesnt fit the place at all. I mean there were even delicate flowers placed in water vases. I suggest you make a switch to jazz or soft instrumental music. It would really fit with the decor.

The restaurant has an adorable ambiance and a pleasant atmosphere, though the music was a tad too loud. The food and coffee were enjoyable. While our waiter was friendly, there was a slight delay in their service. I appreciate the convenience of being able to make reservations at this place!

The food was decent, but our experience with the waitress left much to be desired. Despite the restaurant being only half full and not very busy, her demeanor was condescending from the start. There was no warm greeting when she approached our table to take our order; instead, she bluntly asked, What do you want? This lack of a basic welcome made us feel unwelcome in the establishment. While we dont expect the world, we think a simple greeting is fundamental in the hospitality industry. Additionally, we had to actively seek out our waitress for utensils, water, and coffee refills. Even though there were a few mishaps, she did not offer any apology. On the other hand, the lady at the front was delightful. It would have been wonderful if she could have been our waitress instead.

Rarely dine in the area, and this spot really sticks out from its neighbours. St Laurent needed something hip and this was it. Went in for Sunday brunch, wait was 30 min for indoor seating but we could get a table right away if we were outside. You could tell the staff were a bit overwhelmed, the bussers came to our table twice before the server to take our order. The server also took orders of a few people who were sat after us. I think too many different people were seating customers so it added to confusion. We also had to flag her down for our bill. The food however was exceptional and although the place was packed, kitchen turned over so fast. Less than 10 min from ordering we had our food. Halloumi shak was so good I d go out of my way to eat here again. Took a couple cookies to go and they were also soft, buttery and baked perfectly.

Twas, mmmkay... LoL, so dont get me wrong food was good, service was good, ambiance was a beautiful, and thats about it. I was super excited to visit pigeon café after my first experience at the one on Monkland, and this one left me wanting more. I re ordered the artichoke dip. Compared to last time there was substantially less dip that was given. Perhaps there is a difference from restaurant to restaurant. Last time I ordered the BLT which was phenomenal, and this time I ordered the house classic, the pigeon sandwich. It left me wanting more, I just finished the meal because I paid for it. All in all, everything was good, Im rather quite dry when it comes to places that dont impress me beyond the bare minimum, but I would still recommend this place to people.

The word here is atmosphere, atmosphere, atmosphere. Compared to all the usual suburb concrete boxes, stepping into this place was a breath of fresh air. The food was varied and interesting, an eclectic blend of American brunch, middle eastern flavors and Israeli twists. They also offered a great variety of drinks and the service was on point. Dont skip on this place whether for a family brunch or a day date - unless youre looking for actual pigeons...in which case there are none.

I don t usually leave reviews but, I live close by and have been a few times now. And it happened not once that service was a bit slower during quieter periods. It seems like the waiters slack a bit because it s downtime for them too. However, today especially upset me as I was with my 6 months old baby alone. I had to wait for 20 minutes (!!!) without a waiter even passing by and asking me if I wanted a drink while waiting for my friend to join us. Then as my friend arrived. We waited an additional 10min, although the restaurant was almost empty and 4 of the staff (2 waiters, busgirl and hostess) ignored us entirely. I finally got up and had to walk towards the two waiters that were standing there chatting and ask who is our waiter and ask if we could please have some service. Quite outrageous that after 30min of sitting at my table, not one person passed by to inquire if I wanted to order even a drink while waiting to order food.

Had a hot chocolate and it tasted weird. Realised when I finished it that it was made with a syrup... Quite disappointing for the price point. Also got their chuncky cookies and for 5$ each, I have tasted better loaded cookies, I understand they cannot stay fresh all day but the staff could have at least heat them up to give these cookies a chance... To me, this place is definitely a pass. However the girls were lovely there and the atmosphere was good.

They had a great selection in bar drinks and hot beverages. I ordered the basic salmon avo toast, and my friend for the shakshua which was very delicious to add a gingerbread latte and to end with key lime pie dessert. The service was great, I definitely would come back to try their dinner menu!
