Creperie Bretonne Ty-Breiz - Montreal, Quebec

One of my favorite places in Montreal, hands down. The food is delicious, expertly yet subtly prepared, and the definition of "comfort food". I live in NYC, but my wife is from Montreal and this is a must-visit spot for us every time we visit. The atmosphere hasn't changed in years, ... if not decades, and I hope it stays the same forever. The nostalgia runs deep here. There is no "concept" here and that is refreshing. It's just good, delicious food served by nice, wholesome people. The onion soup is spot-on and as good as it gets. The salad is exceptionally simple and fresh; I don't know what the garlic dressing is made out of, but it's completely addictive. The last time I was there, my friend's 8-year old son was even asking for third and fourth servings (no joke). The escargot is elegant and will warm your stomach. And then of course there are the crepes. I am partial to the one filled with champignon, bechemel, and cheese; drizzle it with a little Canadian maple syrup and you have basically just lived your best day. Get over to Ty-Breiz and get down to enjoying simple pleasures in life. Read more

Amazing pancake. We came in close to closing and we ate past closing and the staff were very patient. It was our first time so we had no idea about their times. We ordered the garlic bread, it was pretty greasy, the snails provencial was not what I would expect and ... had barely any cheese. The pancakes though were amazing! Would recommend the pancakes.

At first I was surprised that the crêpe wasn't as soft as the ones I use to eat, indeed it was crispy...but it was amazing! I had a simple one with only Nutella inside and it's been a real cuddle!

French onion soup fantastic. Crepes were wonderful. Although they were just about to close, they got our order in and it was good.

Probably the best French Onion soup Montreal has to offer. This place looks like your grandma’s house, if she never renovated after 1960. The menu has a lot to offer, ranging from Frog Legs to Nutella Crêpes (those are the really really thin pancakes). A true Montreal institution.
