Café Joe - Montreal, Quebec

We were sad when Café Joe had to close, and were delighted when they reopened. The food is homey and delicious. The crust on their potatoes is just right. We've tried a variety of their offerings (burgers, omelettes, breakfast burrito), and this time we went with a Le Voisin (grilled cheese + ... eggs) with a side of sausage, and the sausage Breakfast Bowl. Both were delightful and so satisfying. The service was very kind and attentive. (I never got a chance to see the bottom of my coffee mug!) The ambiance is fun and cozy: late 90s/early 2000s bangers on the speakers, at a volume that still allows easy conversation. And the decor made me chuckle with the variety of movie posters in shadow boxes. Next time I'll dabble with the retro video game setup in the corner. Looking forward or our next visit! Read more

Amazing amazing food. Amazing people and service. Really love the smoothie very healthy and refreshing. Yummy food one of the best French toast. Must try place if you are in Montreal. I really like the place food people over there.

Well rounded Cafe that serves exceptional food and coffee, friendly service, with just enough room to feel comfy inside. One of the features that stands out and compliments their menu is inclusion of fruits on the side of every dish. This breakfast is then also reinforced with good coffee and ... atmosphere. In addition the Cafe serves delicous French toast serves with signature Canadian syrup! Pricing is with in the bounderies of reason, is a good introduction to Montreals large variety of foods, and a great way to start your morning. Read more

Great little place popular with the locals. Think Cheers...but for brunch...where everyone knows your name. Sunday Brunch is a little of a time commitment. Between the wait for a table (30 min) and wait for the food (about an hour)...it allows you to develop conversations over refills ... of coffee. Generous portions. I had the breakfast Poutine. Not the best I’ve had but very good. The other selections from our table looked amazing. Loved the live music as we waited and big bonus for giving us coffee while we waited for our table. We of course came at the height of rush hour, so that’s on us. Now...belly full of comfort food...I leave happy...and full of caffeine. Read more

Prices were fair. The restaurant was busy but service was fast and friendly. Coffee was REALLY good. Has a very natural and welcoming vibe. Great place to bring kids. They even have a kids area. All 4 of us enjoyed our meals. 2 covered picnic tables outside are perfect for sunny ... or rainy days. They had a live band when we were there. Larger inside than you'd expect from the front. All 4 of us enjoyed our meals. Read more
