Club sandwich kinds of diners in Montreal - 2 of 2 I also found Cafe Pamplemousse on a morning walk along Rue Ontario en route to see the big masonry townhomes along Rue Sherbrooke and visit Parc Lafontaine, a large green trapezoid on the map which I had not yet seen because Parc Mont-Royal probably steals its thunder. That said, any sort of eatery catches my attention and leads to some analysis, with Thai, Indian, and sushi being immediate write-offs. (I know that probably makes me uncool, but I'm okay with your not liking that.) Pamplemousse is an interesting word. It sounds like it could be an exotic and expensive dessert. Pamplemousse is just the French word for grapefruit. I don't know why they named it as such and it doesn't matter. However, it's mostly a breakfast and lunch place, so I planned to go on another day and did so. There is a counter with a glass case showing some options with things Quebecois - some crusted pies and other items. The apparent owner was very friendly and I can't remember if I started the order upon approaching the counter or if it was taken at the table. Most of the patrons eating here appeared to be local folks, which is always a good sign. Again, I ordered a club sandwich that came with potatoes. To drink, I had a !!!! What I immediately noticed was that there was bottled water right at the table. For Quebec being a slice of Europe in North America, this certainly contrasted with Europe where you have to pay for quality drinking water, even though it is reasonably priced. This platter made for a tasty and filling lunch, with sensible pricing and excellent and prompt service. Everything about the Cafe Pamplemousse experience was very good, with the welcoming service standing out. Additionally, it's about 4 blocks from the intersection of Sherbrooke and Berri, yet not quite priced like things that would be in immediate proximity to that landmark intersection. The front of their menu at the time of my visit also indicated breakfast and lunch hours seven days a week. If it sounds like a winner, it is.

Good food expect for their benedict sauce which is usually seperated from overheating. A nice place with a great vibe. Portions are small for the price. The service isn't the greatest. They usually stay behind the counter so don't expect coffee refills.

Le grilled cheese était trop cuit, le pain était brûlé, la sauce pour la salade César goutait juste le vinaigre, l'odeur en avait rempli la salle.. extrêmement déçu pour une place avec une bonne ré

Nous adorions venir au Pamplemousse pour déjeuner la fin de semaine. Les déjeuners sont excellents et vraiment pas chers. Cependant, ça fait deux fois que nous entrons en début d’après-midi : la salle est à moitié pleine et aucune des tables libres n’a été débarrassée. Un vrai bordel. Et deux fois le même scénario : on s’assoie, les employés jasent en arrière de la caisse, s’occupent de la vaisselle sale, mais ne viennent pas nous voir. Et ça fait deux fois qu’on quitte parce que personne n’est venu nous voir pour prendre nos commandes. C’est vraiment dommage que les clients ne soient pas une priorité pour les employés du week-end. Un conseil : les déjeuners valent la peine, mais ne soyez surtout pas pressés.
