About Eggspectation
Eggspectation is a breakfast and brunch restaurant chain founded in Montreal in 1993. Its menu is built around morning favourites: eggs Benedict in many versions, waffles, crêpes and big weekend plates. The restaurants are known for generous portions and a relaxed, busy brunch atmosphere.
Eggspectation suits families, groups of friends and anyone who treats weekend brunch as a small ritual. It works for a birthday breakfast, a Sunday catch-up or a slow start before a day of shopping. Expect a crowd at peak weekend hours, so plan a little ahead. The chain began in Montreal, a city that takes its brunch seriously.
