Reviews of Deli Planet highlight delicious, varied dishes such as smoked meat, pizza, burgers, and hearty sandwiches, with generous portions and fresh ingredients, and consistently fast, friendly service that makes it a convenient stop inside Montreal Central Station; the atmosphere ranges from lively comedy nights to a calm, travel friendly vibe, and prices are generally reasonable, with many customers returning for the reliable food and the chance to catch a show, though a few comments call the ambience meh or note an inconsistent experience on slower days.View restaurant profile

Café St-Barth offers a bright, cozy chill spot with stylish decor and a spacious layout that suits brunch with friends or a study session. Reviews praise generous portions, a wide brunch menu, tasty drinks and friendly, attentive service, plus a terrace for summer days, but some note slow wifi, occasional wait times, and prices that can feel high for the value. Overall, it comes across as a popular, reliable breakfast and brunch spot in the area with a welcoming vibe and a crowd that keeps returning.View restaurant profile
