About Clementine
Clementine Cafe has earned its reputation as Winnipeg's busiest and arguably best brunch destination. Located in the heart of the Exchange District at 123 Princess Street, this lower-level gem serves up a menu of elevated classics in a warm, industrial-chic setting.
Chef Chris Gama brings flavours from the Mediterranean to Latin America, crafting dishes that are both inventive and satisfying. The fried chicken toast is legendary, and the braised bacon benedict, Turkish eggs, and house burger have all earned devoted followings. Vegetarian diners will find plenty to love as well, with thoughtful plant-based options throughout the menu.
Open seven days a week from 9am to 2pm, Clementine operates on a first-come, first-served basis — no reservations accepted. The lineup is part of the experience, and most regulars will tell you it's well worth the wait. Whether you're nursing a weekend hangover or catching up with friends over fresh juice and coffee, Clementine delivers every time.
