Shawinigan

Market Tartare Creative Salads Café Breakfast

Review Summary

Le 2800 du parc is described as a warm, charming place with a beautiful riverside setting and a cozy interior that invites relaxation after a day in the park, where the staff are consistently friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere during both quiet meals and lively evenings with live music. The food is generally delicious and comforting, with ample portions and several crowd pleasers, though a few dishes miss the mark, such as bread that is too hard or chicken in a salad that is overly dry, and some reviewers felt items were not standout or that prices were high for the value. The terrace offers striking views and a romantic ambiance, but service can be slow at times and external factors like a nearby event, noise, or a food truck generator can affect the experience. Outdoor comfort may require mosquito precautions or extra cooling. Overall, Le 2800 du parc is seen as a solid, versatile stop for good meals, drinks, and scenery, with durable appeal for both casual visits and special outings.View restaurant profile

American Mediterranean Greek Grill Burgers Pizza

Review Summary

Reviewers describe Brasserie chez Burky's as offering one of the best pizzas they have ever had, with friendly and accommodating service. The order included a red beer and wings with fries, which were enjoyed, though a different dipping sauce would be requested next time after receiving poutine sauce instead of BBQ sauce, yet it still tasted good. Overall, there is interest in returning, ideally during a busier time to judge whether the experience warrants another visit.View restaurant profile

Grill Burgers Sandwiches Pub Food Tartare Pasta

Review Summary

Overall, Archibald Microbrasserie is widely seen as a standout airport meal stop at the Montreal airport (YUL), offering solid to excellent food and beer, friendly and efficient service, and a warm chalet style atmosphere that makes waiting for a flight more pleasant. Reviewers praise fast service, attentive staff, and the range of options from burgers and poutine to smoked meat sandwiches and breakfast; several note the beer is a highlight and the space is comfortable for a bite. Some concerns appear: a few dishes have been served cold or portions felt small or pricey for an airport, and a handful report uneven service or a slow checkout; one mentions a restriction on strollers and another notes that points are not accepted. Still, most describe practical preflight dining that feels like a gem in the airport, with many customers returning regularly and considering it their go to spot before flights.View restaurant profile

Bar/Pub

Pub John Molson

(14)

Dorval

Pub Food Sandwiches Burgers Breakfast

Review Summary

Pub John Molson comes up as a handy airport stop for killing a bit of time, especially for a morning breakfast with a decent menu and a mix of food and drink options. The atmosphere is okay for an airport setting, and the option to sit and relax is appreciated since many nearby spots are express or takeout. Food quality is generally decent, with a vegetarian skillet offering large portions that are tasty, though a lighter choice is suggested for jet lag or fatigue. Service can be slow in the morning when only one server is on, but the area is arranged for quick throughput. The Montreal location yields mixed notes on the smoked meat, with some finding it fatty and requesting more meat, and attempts to heat a second package improving things somewhat but not fully satisfying. Fries are good, and there is disappointment about the soup selection, with potato bacon soup being declined. Overall, Pub John Molson provides a convenient sit down option in the airport to pass time, alongside a range of express options around YUL.View restaurant profile
