I need to break out of my Allo Mon Coco rut (those potatoes tho omg). What’s your favourite place to head to for breakfast on the island?
EDIT- these are all awesome suggestions that are now on my list of places to check out, merci!!
Be ready to wait in line though on the weekends!
Dame Tartine sur Ontario. <3
Honestly? McDonalds… they’re quick!
Bahaha the mccrepe does hold a special place in my heart (probably literally with all that cholesterol oof). But when you’re not looking for a quick meal, like when you’re in the mood for a sit-down breakfast or even brunch, where would you head?
I moved to Ottawa several years ago and am only back for weekend visits. I honestly can’t recall where I used to go for breakfast, sorry!
Bagel Etc, Leonard Cohen’s favourite spot (right in front of his place too).
Péché Matinal in Longueuil is my go-to. There’s always a line up, so plan accordingly!
Their “Poutine Déj” is excellent, and served in a cast iron skillet so it stays warm the whole meal.
It’s slightly off the island unfortunately, but you can easily get there by metroing to the Longueuil - Université de Sherbrooke station and walking there.
Eggspectation on De Maisonneuve would be my second go-to.
Spanel Crêpes et gourmets. Little Burgundy
Greasy diner breakfast: cosmos in NDG and green spot
Arthur’s on Notre Dame. Their cottage cheese pancakes kick serious ass.
