Pigeon Café-Monkland Ave Montreal
A popular café in Monkland Village, Pigeon Café boasts a versatile menu that includes delicious drinks, brunch, and lunch options, all complemented by a spacious outdoor patio.
One of the top spots on Monkland Ave for an excellent brunch, refreshing iced lattes, and a lovely patio is Pigeon Café. I visit every summer, and it’s a place I always recommend to friends and family.
The menu at Pigeon Café truly stands out for its diversity and abundance of excellent options. I often find myself ordering their vanilla latte, pancakes, and the well-known shakshuka, which is among their most popular dishes. This dish was intriguing; it wasn't exactly what I expected in terms of flavour, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The combination of pine nuts, roasted red pepper, and halloumi really caught my attention.
My go-to drink has always been the vanilla latte. Pigeon Café has perfected this beverage—it is not too sweet, just perfect. One of my favourite items is their blueberry pancakes, which are nice and fluffy on the inside while being a little crisp on the outside. Pigeon Cafe’s smoked salmon is another much-sought-after dish and can be bought for one or a small group of two.
Why I Recommend Pigeon Cafe
This location in Monkland Village has consistently been my favourite. The staff are always friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Additionally, the spacious outdoor patio is very attractive and offers a lovely view of Monkland Village. The prices are also reasonable, and the food tastes excellent.
I will definitely dine at Pigeon Cafe again to explore more of the menu. The dining experience, food, and staff are a solid 8/10. Pigeon Cafe also has an alternate location in the heart of downtown Montreal at 1392 MAISONNEUVE WEST. This location features a beautiful outdoor patio and a simpler menu.
