PIGEON CAFÉ & BAR Monkland Ave
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 2.
Why I Recommend Pigeon Cafe
The Monkland Village location, in my opinion, is one of the best locations. The staff are consistently friendly and helpful. Their spacious outdoor patio is quite inviting and offers a lovely view of the village. Additionally, the prices are very reasonable.
Pigeon Café is definitely on my bucket list to revisit this year to explore more of their menu and try new dishes. Furthermore, Pigeon Café has multiple locations throughout Montreal, Laval, VSL, and more. Click here to view the full list of locations.
