On our map. We haven't walked through the door yet — here's why it's on the list.
A brunch-and-coffee spot open for nearly eight years on Notre-Dame West, Barley belongs to Soufian Mamlouk, who also owns Heni and Lulu Épicerie nearby. The menu pairs mezze, halloumi and Turkish eggs with a playful cereal bar, alongside classic cocktails and specialty coffee.
Service runs seven days a week for lunch and brunch, in a cozy room built for neighbourhood regulars.
Barley is on the Regulars map — spotted, not yet visited. Our guides are written on foot, door by door, and no one pays to appear: when we walk through the door, this note will become a portrait. No points. No coupons. Standing is earned.
