Montreal is full of great places to eat tacos, have a drink… but sometimes you just want a mimosa, a bottomless coffee and a mountain of pancakes.
In recent years, brunch has become something of a religion in Montreal. On weekends, from 10am onwards, the coolest people in town line up outside Maman, Arthur’s or September – desperate for a fat French toast and a protein smoothie with sea buckthorn berries.
This list takes it a step further. These brunches are all-you-can-eat (no more choosing between eggs Benedict and almond-chocolate granola) and are the centerpiece of a ceremony we all know: the Sunday morning debrief with friends…
