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.
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!!

L'endroit parfait pour attendre son vol tout en dégustant une bonne bière Archibald & un bon en cas pour calmer l'appétit. Service agréable, notre serveuse très affable. Je recommande.
Sat in a corner seat & waited 20 minutes no one came over to my table. Watched someone got seated across from me & they were served immediately, walked right by my table.
Leckere burger, wenn auch Verhältnismäßig etwas teuer. Es dauerte ein wenig bis zur Bezahlung, was gerade am Flughafen problematisch werden könnte, war aber noch alles im Rahmen.
Das Ambiente ist nett eingerichtet. Auf den Fernsehern läuft Sport.
