| - Disappointment.
I went here from brunch with some good friends and high expectations - who wouldn't, give all the hype and big-names associated with this place?
The food wasn't too bad, but that's about all I can say. The servings were small - by any Montreal breakfast standards, let alone the prices they charged. I had the breakfast muffin which was tasty, but basically just a $15 Sausage-McMuffin.
The coffee was expensive, tasted terrible, and was served in small cups. My sometimes-alcoholic friend (birds of a feather...) ordered a cocktail, which even he struggled to finish.
The decore is OK, but hardly original. It looks just like Liverpool House and Joe Beef (which I can understand look the same, as they're run/owned by the same person and right next door to each other), to the point where there's even a picture of Joe Beef on the wall.
I have heard (both on Yelp and offline) that the brunch for two is good. I'm thinking about going back to try it, but I'm not in any rush.
