The Archibald microbrewery is delicious panini platters, whisky BBQ chicken wings and hearty breakfasts. It’s also “hunter’s platters” that will satisfy even the most voracious appetites. But above all, Archibald is some ten artisanal brews that are out of this world: La Matante, La Joufflue, La Brise du lac, La Ciboire, La Choute, La Tite’Kriss, La Weiss and more! It’s a date!
Reviewers describe Archibald as a reliable go to spot at the Montreal airport for both breakfast and light meals, with many noting fast, friendly service and a warm chalet like atmosphere. The food is generally solid and often praised for flavor and generous portions, with standout items including smoked meat sandwich, poutine, burgers, and a salmon salad, and onsite beer from the brewery. Several say the prices are high but understandable for airport dining, and portions can be uneven with some dishes feeling light or the fries cold. Service is frequently described as attentive, efficient, and cheerful, though a few experiences report slow or less courteous service and one reviewer noted issues with getting a table or timing before boarding. Reviewers also appreciate the openness for dietary needs with gluten free options and careful handling to avoid allergens. Overall Archibald is seen as one of the better airport dining options in Montreal, a reliable stop before a flight, with a lively atmosphere and consistently good drinks.
Excellent service de la part de Sophie V.! 27-3-2026
Service super rapide en plus d'être très courtoise, de bonne humeur & très acceuillante! Merci à cette charmante femme de nous avoir fait bien commencer nos vacances! Les deux mimosas & le cappucino étaient excellents tout comme les plats que nous avons commandé! 🤩👌🏻 Merci Sophie!!!
Had a great dinner pre flight. Got there early & Jose took care of me. He brought out the food at the right place for the time I had, made my meal experience enjoyable & not rushed. The food was delicious, highly recommend the burrata. Safe travels!
The food was quite good by airport restaurant standards, but what amazed me was the chemistry of the staff. Everybody was smiling & laughing while they worked, the manager was active & engaging with everyone. Great service & atmosphere!
