Pork & Pickle - Creative Restaurants in West Island

Pork & Pickle

Open until 9:30 pm
(340)
Dorval

Review Summary

Overall, Pork & Pickle at the Montreal airport draws mixed reviews, with some travelers praising fast service, attentive staff, and standout dishes like spicy wings, pulled pork, and a remarkable Dirty Mac and Cheese, while others report rude or distracted service, incorrect orders, and high prices that feel typical for an airport. Food quality ranges from delicious and well seasoned brisket or smoky elements to disappointing portions, dry brisket, cold bites, or missing sides, with several mentions of meals arriving quickly but not always to expectations. The airport setting is a common theme: convenient for a layover and offering a lively beer and bar style ambiance, plus TV coverage that travelers enjoy, yet the price tag and occasional inconsistency temper the overall experience. Beverage service is noted as variable, from welcome refills and friendly bartenders to missing items like Coke Zero or decaf coffee, and several diners emphasize that service quality can swing with busyness. Despite the uneven notes, many guests consider it one of the better airport dining options, valuing quick, friendly service and the ability to grab a hearty meal before boarding.View restaurant profile
