Promenade Cafe and Wine - Winnipeg

The selection of food was excellent and so was the tast but the service was way too slow Waitress apologized so we thought Ok this is unusual so we went for brunch a week later and again the service wa slow waitress was nice but...it took 43 minutes deom the time we ordered to the time we received our food and all we had were eggs bacon and or panckaes waffles and grilled cheese wont go back twice was enough to bad becuase the food was very good but it took nearly two hours to have brunch for five so thats not even a big party

This was my first visit to Cafe Promenade, and it will not be my last. The cafe is located at the intersection of Tache and Provencher, giving patrons a great view of the city. The cafe was clean, the service was excellent, and the food...was delicious. Although poutine didn't seem classy enough, I ordered the Smashed Poutine which comes with Bothwell Cheesecurds, house gravy and smashed tourtiere on top. It was fantastic. (No ketchup needed. . My friend had the Boeuf Bourguignon, which she was quite happy with. I did not have room for dessert, but my friend ordered dessert to go for later. We are looking forward to meeting for dinner again there another time, soon.

It was a weekday and we stopped in for a late brunch. We were seated in the dining room and ordered the eggs benedict and the crepes. Œufs Bénédicte Eggs Benedict 14 Toasted English muffin topped with two poached eggs and hollandaise. Served with...breakfast potatoes Choose One: ham or smoked trout or tomato spinach Crêpes jambon suisse Ham Swiss Crêpes 12 Two crêpes stuffed and baked with ham, Bothwell Swiss cheese and two Nature’s Farm scrambled eggs. I had ordered the Benedict in the past, and forgot to ask the server not to included the potatoes, because I prefer something lighter. But when they came I nibbled on them and they are quite nice. The hollandaise was smooth, maybe not quite as good, in my opinion as last time but my taste buds could just be off. Eggs were cooked to my liking and the bacon (back) was also very tasty. Muffins were soft and fresh. The crepe was a very substantial portion and it was very nice, per my friend and I had a wee bite and agreed. I would order it next time. The coffee and tea refills were plentiful and the prices fair. We were there for a good long time and were not rushed one iota. When we left and passed the dessert case on our way out, I wished we had maybe tried a peice of one of the delectable choices. Dangerous to linger there unless your willpower is very strong.

We used to love this restaurant and so when it came time for my birthday celebration The Promenade was a natural choice. Imagine our surprise at our experience. The wine we ordered was not available. We then opted for other alcoholic beverages that they did...not stock at the bar... what bar doesn’t stick Southern Comfort.?? Then the meals came. The chicken was dry... needed a sauce. The pork medallions were over cooked, bordering on burnt. The tortierre could have been purchased from a Costco freezer. All meals were unremarkable. It is no longer at the top of my restaurant picks. Very disappointing.

We had breakfast on Saturday. It was my husband’s birthday. Great experience, food was delicious, we felt safe and the staff were friendly snd efficient. Smoke trout crepes are worth the trip.
