9 Montreal Restaurants With All-You-Can-Eat Brunch That Let You Nom To Your Heart's Content
Stacks on stacks on stacks. 🧇
Friends clink mimosas at a table full of food. Right: A brunch spread.
Brunch is all about options — whether you're in the mood for breakfast, lunch, or both. But some Montreal restaurants go a step further, offering an all-you-can-eat buffet or set menu. You don't have to pick between dishes at these spots, you can sample them all and fill up without fear of the bill.
Here are some of the best places to do if you like your brunch how you like your mimosas: bottomless.
Restaurant Lloyd
Where: 1010, rue de la Gauchetière Ouest
When: Sundays, from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Cost: $45
Reason to try: From a tower of macarons to eggs benedict and smoked salmon, the selection at Lloyd is impressive. Cinnamon buns and flaky croissants, cakes, custards, and giant pretzels fill in any culinary gaps. Fresh fruit, bagels with cream cheese, and steaming hot brunch items such as waffles, bacon, hash browns, and assorted breakfast meats round out the restaurant's offerings. You can also order signature cocktails and caffeinated drinks with your meal.
Ô Four
Where: 3452, ave. Parc
Cost: $23
Reason to try: You can take five at Ô four where Lebanese brunch reigns supreme. The all-you-can-eat brunch features Lebanese favourites, from cheese and zaatar manakish (reminiscent of Lebanese pizzas) to specialty egg dishes with awarma lamb. The fatteh with chickpeas, yogurt, pine nuts, and toasted pita bread comes highly recommended and you can enjoy it with a side of fresh veggies and olives.

Saint-Houblon
Where: Quartier Latin - 1567, rue Saint-Denis; Côte-des-Neiges - 5414, avenue Gatineau; Petite Italie - 6700, boulevard St-Laurent; St-Bruno - 540, boulevard des Promenades
Cost: $35 with reservation; $40 without
Reason to try: This microbrewery with locations across the island has a brunch deal with a set all-you-can-eat menu and up to twelve drinks of your choice, including mimosas, beer, and cider. You can fill up on their iconic beer sausage pogos, cheesy eggs with bacon, and sausage-leek hash (or the vegan version of each). The seasonal menu changes depending on what's grown on the restaurant's farm.
Le Pavillon 67
Where: 1, ave du Casino, 5th floor
Cost: $42
Reason To Try: The Sunday-only buffet brunch at the Montreal Casino is as varied as it is popular and it's all "open kitchen." That means you can get a behind-the-scenes look at dishes being created before you decide what to eat. Service in the dining room also comes very highly rated.
Renoir
Where: 1155, rue Sherbrooke O.
Cost: $78
Reason to Try: This one may be a splurge, but reviews say it's worth it when you want your pick of gourmet French goodies. The buffet features endless fresh pastries, fruits, potatoes, and pancakes (blueberry or regular), along with chef-made specials like eggs benedict and custom omelets. There's also a whole waffle station and a cold bar stacked with smoked salmon, charcuterie, and cheese, plus salad and grilled veggies.
Rosélys
Where: 900, boul. René-Lévesque O.
Cost: $85
Reason to Try: This restaurant is an art deco dream that serves a massive selection for brunch, from a raw bar (with seared beef, salmon gravlax, smoked salmon, sesame tuna tataki, and various sushi and sashimi) to a whole continental breakfast selection. Each guest also gets a mimosa (or non-alcoholic cocktail) with their meal.
Plaza Rive-Sud
Cost: $36
Where: 500, av. du Golf, La Prairie
Reason to try: This spot is so popular that people book a spot at this La Prairie venue weeks in advance. The buffet includes an omelet and pancake station, where food is prepared right in front of you, with tons of adorable amuse-bouches that will leave you spoiled for choice.
Portovino
Where: Brossard, 8940, boul. Leduc; Laval, 1160, boul. Le Corbusier
Cost: $55
Reason to try: If you're an indecisive bruncher, this is the place for you. A breakfast station preps eggs however you want them, along with bacon, sausage, and other options. There's the flambé station for Grand Marnier or Tia Maria flambéed crepe, waffle, or French toast. The cold/oyster bar has salads, prosciutto-wrapped melon, avocado guacamole, salmon tartar cucumber bites, and, of course, freshly shucked oysters. Or if you're feeling salty, the lunch station serves roast beef, lamb, and other meats, along with fresh pasta. There's even a fruit station with a chocolate fountain. When this place says "there's something for everyone," they mean it.
Saveurs des Continents
Where: Brossard, 7200, boul. Taschereau, local 1105; Drummondville, 155, rue Robert-Bernard; Gatineau, 4, Impasse de la Gare Talon
Cost: $30
Reason to try: This buffet chain serves an unmatched variety of foods that hail from all over the world. There are stations for pizza, pasta, tacos, gyros, and a whole lot more. But another major pull is the decor. Depending on which location you visit, you can sit under the Eiffel Tower, next to the Leaning Tower of Pisa, or near the Sphinx!
