Clementine Café
Clementine Café is a local favourite. It is a stylish gem that is breakfast-only, so you know it is going to be a brunch favourite. Plus they are licensed so why not throw back a Mimosa while enjoying the creative food.
They have nine different main dishes to choose from, with the Turkish Eggs being a popular one. It includes hummus and chilli butter with a poached egg.

Sherbrook St. Deli is everything you need sweet and savoury, all combined into one meal. Inspired by early 1900s New York, this brunch hotspot is all house made with recipes stemming from many generations before. Combine New York and Winnipeg flavours to get the Sherbrook St. Deli.
Go for the Chicken & Latkes, even if you’ve never heard of it. It is fried chicken skin on poached eggs and pulled chicken smothered with chicken gravy. Your morning brunch could also include Salmon, Fried Salami or what you think would be a simple Bagel, but of course will be way more.
Promenade Café and Wine
If you are looking for something delicious but simple, the French Toast is the way to go. Thick bread served with whipped cream and icing sugar. For some heartier, the Montreal Smoked Meat Hash has you covered. Enjoy smoked brisket, eggs with pickled hot peppers. You can’t go wrong with a Nutella and Strawberry stuffed crepe.
