Sparrow, nestled in Montreal’s vibrant Mile End, is a cozy, British-inspired bar and brunch spot that’s charmed locals for years. With its warm, tavern-like atmosphere—complete with old church pews, antique lighting, and vintage trunks—Sparrow is both inviting and stylish. The menu here pays homage to classic British fare while drawing inspiration from global flavours.
By day, you’ll find traditional offerings like the full English breakfast alongside Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian-inspired dishes such as shakshuka, a breakfast bánh mì with pork belly or eggplant, and a Turkish breakfast platter loaded with feta, olives, flatbread, and merguez. Beyond brunch, Sparrow’s evening menu features small plates with Indian influences, like their standout butter chicken, plus craft cocktails.
