About Beauty's Restaurant

Beauty's Restaurant in Montreal, located in the Jewish quarter, is a historic café that has been delighting locals and visitors since 1942. This well-known spot offers a cozy atmosphere with friendly service, often making customers feel like regulars even on their first visit. The restaurant is famous for its nostalgic features, including a retro diner vibe with a neon sign and cozy booths, creating a unique dining experience.

The menu includes their legendary Beauty’s Special bagel and lox, along with fluffy pancakes and perfectly brewed coffee, making it a place for fantastic meals. Breakfast options also feature Montreal's famous bagels with various toppings like scrambled eggs, avocado, and tomatoes, as well as the unique "Mish Mash" dish, a combination of salami and hot dogs. The clubhouse classique on challah bread is another popular item. Customers often enjoy the bagels with smoked salmon and highly recommended milkshakes, served in a fun atmosphere. Some visitors also like making their own Bloody Marys with available fixings. The extensive menu and super fast service make it a great choice for a hearty brunch with quality ingredients. To avoid long waits, arriving before 11am is advisable. The restaurant’s walls display photos of celebrities who have dined there, adding to its charm as a Montreal landmark.

Recent reviews mention that pancakes are a must-try, though some found the breakfast potatoes bland and overcooked. Others felt portions were small for the price and experienced a hurried exit due to lineups. Despite this, Beauty's remains a classic spot for a traditional diner-style breakfast in Montreal.
