It was open on New Year's Day which is a miracle; we walked for ages looking for a place to grab lunch and came in here because it was open. That isn't really a stirring recommendation for a place but there you have it.
I had a chicken salad sandwich that was good; the bread was excellent. My friend had a caesar salad that was sprinkled liberally with bacon bits which didn't sit well with his vegetarianism. Apparently this is how caesar salads are made in Montreal because we saw this elsewhere. He also got an onion and tomato tart that was quite good. Their coffee was passable; they give you a small handful of chocolate disks with your coffee and the chocolate was better than the coffee.
I liked the ambiance of the place in general, but I don't know if I'd go back unless I found myself again stranded on a holiday with nothing else open.
