We were walking around Plateau Mont Royal and felt like having a brunch someplace and you know what? Right at the corner of Saint-Laurent and Mont-Royal there was a Allo mon coco and it is quite recognisable with just a glance at the storefront and inside decor. First of all, this place is popular so expect it to be crowded, every time I went to one of them on a weekend day, I had to wait a bit before getting seated. The seating at this location is especially cramped as I was almost shoulder to shoulder with the tables next to me. There's no ambiance music playing but it can get quite loud as everyone is seating near each other and tries to speak with their party. Onto the food, I had the Coco Casserole which consisted of potatoes mixed with swiss cheese, bacon, sausage and ham with an egg on top. Everything on that plate was delicious but I do wish the portion were sightly bigger considering the 16$ price tag that is attached to the plate. Forgot to mention that the service was quick once we were seated, I think it took less than 10 minutes after ordering to get out food so there's that also to consider if you see a lineup upon entering the place. It can move quite fast. Great place, y'all should try this place. Its worth a stop. read more

Une bonne portion et un excellent service de Farah. Très bonne ambiance aussi. Je viens souvent à ce restaurant.

J'ai pris la casserole western. C'était ok, mais le muffin anglais servi à côté était de piètre qualité. Ma fille n'a pas du tout apprécié sa crêpe aux pépites de chocolat. J'y ai goûté moi-même et à part la pâte amidonné, ça ne goûtait pas grand chose et c'était lourd. Bref c'était loin d'être une expérience positive de brunch. Seul plus: le service était tout de même très bien. read more

I've only gotten take out from this location. The food is standard, I find that although the packing is very efficient and well done, brunch is just better in person. I live very close to this location and even though I picked it up right on time, it just doesn't hit the spot once you get home to eat it. Maybe it's just me. However I will say I love the staff they are very fast and efficient. read more

Allô! Mon Coco - Choco coco - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

We stumbled onto this brunch spot by accident and it was a perfect place for the family! Out of all the dishes we tried there were a few that stood out in my mind! - the deluxe coco waffle is AMAZING. So much we had 2 SERVINGS! - avocado Benedict, i give it 0/5. Do not get, it's very bland, the avocado was a bit spoiled and it just didn't please me. -there is FREEEEEE coffee. I mean, does it get better than this? -the waitress was soooo sweet! -the servings are HUGE- which is always a pleasant surprise This place is a hidden surprise. Definitely go read more

Expensive, and taste of food was below average for plateau area. Had to pay a few extra bucks for real maple syrup. Had the pancake, french toast and waffle combo with english cream. Nothing stood out. Also, the french toast was supposed to have raisins in it. I asked about this after my food arrived and only then was I informed that they were out of raisin bread. I don't plan to return. read more

Overall OK food. The place is nice and clean, the terrace also accommodates quite a lot of guests. The wait time was definitely great compared to the other brunch places around. It's definitely not the best brunch in town, nor the best quality for the price. The crepes are ok but too thick, the service was super slow even if it was 2pm. My friends had omlets which they recommend. The servers are friendly. I wouldn't recommend this place if you are a true foodie, but if you need a quick lunch it will be ok. I probably wouldn't return. read more

Allô! Mon Coco - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Came here twice for brunch, and it definately always satisfies the craving. I really love their eggs Benedict, I tried both their smoked meat as well as salmon and they both hit the spot. It comes with plenty of fruit, and the potatoes were a highlight of the dish. My friend got the crepe which looked delicious as well. Only complaint was that I asked for the tea and they forgot the tea I guess? She just gave us a glass of hot water read more

I haven't had such an amazing breakfasts in a long time. We went to this place every morning when we've been to Montreal with my friends. Sometimes we had to wait, as the place is pretty popular, but it's worth it. Best benedict eggs from my experience. read more

Allô! Mon Coco - Eggs Benedict are astonishing! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Montreal, I don't know what's in the water here but shit, you guys do breakfast and you do it well. Three days and three aces. But if you asked me my favourite, that would be like asking me to choose between food and sex, my first and second born, a pizza.. or a panzerotti, you just can't choose, because they're all amazing. Allô Mon Coco is another location addition to Montreal's vast industry of gourmet restaurant chains (seriously, I think if you were to investigate Montreal's GDP, breakfast/brunch spots might account for 20-30%). Enough fluff, onto the good stuff. Great location in a great part of the Plateau neighbourhood, with a massive patio that had to be about 100ft x 100ft, in addition to the massive modern interior space. We requested to sit on the patio as it was a beautiful morning and luckily we got a seat right away. After reviewing their extensive menu I went with their special eggs benedict. The special came with three kinds of breakfast meat (Canadian bacon, sausage and regular bacon) smothered in thick cheesy delicious hollandaise sauce! Paired with sides of cooked potatoes (which I asked to be topped with cheese) and a massive bowl of fruit. One word describes this mean and five syllables, Un-be-liev-a-ble. That's all you need to know. Thank you Montreal and Allô Mon Coco for amazing breakfast and an amazing weekend as always Eatcrest Out! read more

Allô! Mon Coco - Special Eggs Benny - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

So greasy that my stomach hurt for the rest of the day :( I ordered a croissant sandwich with ham, cheese, and eggs for 8$ with tax. The croissant was flattened and completely ruined because they obviously fried it like a grilled cheese sandwich in a pan. Omg... don't they know that croissants are already baked with A LOT of butter? WHY add more to fry?! AND why smoosh it flat?! They ruined it! The egg inside was a plain fried egg. The cheese was that usual grocery store individual kraft single wrapper slice, and the ham was that usual grocery store thin pre-sliced... that you probably have at home lol. I should have went to provigo next door and buy my own ingredients to put together my own croissant sandwiches... I didn't notice on the menu that it comes with a side of "hash browns"? I'm not sure what it was. I know it was potatoes, which were semi fried in a pan, but again... why? I ordered it to go, and they didn't even give me a fork or napkin, so I had to eat these semi-mashed greasy potatos with my fingers lol For a restaurant that specialized in breakfast and brunch... and charges this much for a sandwich, I would have expected something put together that would be a step up from a fast food place, but this was a real step DOWN. So sad. This place is like one of those USA grease stops. N-A-S-T-Y read more

If you long for a classic brunch meal and you are really, really hungry, this is the place for you. There's no hipster food served in minimalist quantities here. It's almost surprising and at the same time refreshing to see them open their doors in the Plateau. When I got there, around 1pm on a Saturday the place was in full swing, but luckily we got a table after just a few minutes' wait. Table service was friendly and efficient. There was something on the menu to please everyone. I ordered the Lac St Jean breakfast, which consisted of two eggs, three slices of bacon, their famous potato mash, fèves au lard, creton, a massive blueberry pancake and toasts. Coffee or tea included. The amount of food in front of me was quite monumental to say the least. The mash was surprisingly tasty despite the ghetto appearance, but the creton was very run of the mill. Oh well, there were definitely other things on the plate to satisfy my palette. My date ordered the breakfast poutine and although in the end it proved a bit too much, he enjoyed it. I didn't dare try it though. There's something that screams "get out of the pool!" about poutine dressed in hollandaise sauce, at least to me. So I like this place because I got what wanted at reasonable prices. The only thing that I'm not a fan of is their decor. It's too bright, too shiny, too leathery. Like my date said, "It feels like an airport." read more

Cheap, reliable and close to my house. You might not tick off the third box, but that shouldn't prevent you from grabbing breakfast at Allo Mon Coco. It's not fine dining, but it's not a cesspit like Eggspectation or Chez Cora's. The food is more than edible and sometimes, that's really all I'm looking for. PLUS, all of their Eggs Benedict plates come with a mountain of fruit. And we're not talking cantaloupe here, brother... there are fancy fruits in there too. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, the service is pretty fantastic - they're quick, friendly and have a great eye for refilling empty coffee cups. 10/10 service in a chain restaurant is an undertaking worth writing Yelp about. My one reservation with this place is their hashbrowns. Those aren't hashbrowns, my Coco. Those are mashed potatoes heated up on a flattop. read more

If you're hungry and looking for good breakfast food, go here. Portions are huge!! Food is yummy. Service is helpful and nice. Only issue, some of my food was a tad cold. Other than that, it was great! Oh yea, the latte that comes in a bowl was amazing.... if only every restaurant or coffee shop did that :( read more

I only come here because it's super close to my place but every time I come here, I'm disappointed. I pay for two eggs, sausage, potatoes and bread. But when I ask to replace my potatoes and bread woth some fruit, I'm charged $5 plus tax. Really? I can't make any replacements with my meal or swap anything out or they'll charge. It's ridiculous really. Why is it that every other place will change potatoes for fruit without charge and yet I'll get charged $5 here for a few slices of orange and cantaloupe..... something to keep in mind. read more

Terrible service. After waiting in a long line to get seated, the service staff then started pulling larger groups from behind my party in line to seat them first. Outrageous. Avoid this place like an ebola outbreak zone. read more

Awesome breakfast! Food was delicious, very cool atmosphere, waitresses were very nice, service was prompt! Would definitely recommend and return. read more

good portion...nothing special though...untrained staff with no guidance and no management or smiles to be seen. The portion was good on the other plates that actually made their way to the table...somehow it was my problem that the staff doesn't verify to make sure all the plates of the group show up at the right table. I hope no one else has the same experience here. I will not be coming back here... To many restaurants to waste time at places that don't know what they are doing...explains the reason there was no lineup ...should have waited at l'Avenue down the street. read more

I'm a vegetarian and when I asked to substitute the bacon in a breakfast sandwich for a tomato slice or a piece of lettuce I was informed that the restaurant does not make accommodations and that I would be charged an extra dollar for any additional ingredients. Yup. Apparently a slice of tomato is worth much more than a few pieces of bacon. The waiter was friendly enough, but I was so put off by the policy. Worse, the only vegetarian option for the same price as the bacon or ham breakfast sandwich only had an egg and cheese. Those two ingredients do not make for a very good breakfast. Think about reviewing your "no substitutions" policy, allo mon coco. read more
