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!
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.
Witnessed a balding man in glasses with severe'short man energy' actively insulting employees to other employees right up at the entryway, followed by what looked like insulting another employee - perhaps former employee? - who looked close to tears. Obviously some sort of manager type, but if that's who you've got making a scene at the entryway, I can't imagine what happens behind the scenes.
& yes, this is through an anonymous account, as I get the feeling Mr Short Temper wouldn't hesitate to retaliate to criticism in an excessive way.
Our go to spot for breakfast when travelling in the morning. Even if there is a line up it won't take long to be seated. This place seems always busy but the service is quick & efficient. Breakfast choices are quite standard & the food is nothing special but it is better than other places in YUL. Much better to eat here than the choices onboard. Prices are very high as all other places in the airport, nothing like a captive audience. Coffee is OK as well so it gets the job done.
Nous nous y retrouvons au resto de l'aéroport de Montréal. Nous prenons un déjeuner classique succulent notament le jambon qui semble celui que nous avons à la maison. Le service courtois & rapide dans un ambiance de chalet.
Had a connecting flight through Montreal today. The food & service at the airport location is second to none. I will never be bummed out having to catch a connecting flight in Montreal ever again!! Burger was amazing. Salad & dressing was exquisite & the beef poutine didn't stand a chance.
Considering it was an airport restaurant the food was fabulous, plentiful & worth the price!!! 🏅🎉 The smoked salmon bagel plate was huge & so delicious with pickled red onion & capers along with cream cheese!!!😋♥? My husband's classic breakfast of bacon & eggs was also very tasty & both plates came with a generous serving of hash brown potatoes. Francis also provided excellent service with a smile!! Merci beaucoup!!! & the coffee was absolutely devine!!! I believe he said Chien door was the brand.... so yummy!!! It really hit the spot!!!🥰♥?
C'est sûrement le meilleur resto-bar de l'aéroport mais ils pèsent tellement fort sur le crayon que j'ai peur que la mine casse. 30$ pour une frite pis une pinte de bière
Really 5 ⭐ service, very friendly & funny, especially for an airport! Had a classic Archibald Burger with upgraded Poutine Fries & the west coast IPA, perfect match 🫶
Thank you Archibald Team!!
