Overall impressions of Archway describe a standout vegan dining experience with inventive dishes, fresh ingredients and bold flavors presented with care, a warm and stylish atmosphere, and attentive service that many reviews call welcoming and professional. Brunch and dinner favorites include dumplings, gnocchi, okonomiyaki, artichoke tempura, maitake, and desserts, with notable table dote experiences and crowd pleasing drinks, while a few nights show slower pacing or minor misses, the overall sentiment remains highly positive and invites a return.
Amazing discovery! I went to Archway over the weekend for brunch & had a great experience. All the food as well as the drinks we ordered were original & delicious. The staff was extremely kind & attentive. I'll definitely be back soon 🥰
On ne se lasse pas de venir au archway! Que ce soit pour le brunch, le souper, profiter du 5@7 (avec des cocktails vraiment excellents) ou simplement prendre un café, c'est notre place préférée à Verdun! Les saveurs sont vraiment recherchées, tant dans les plats que dans les boissons & le staff est chaleureux & accueillant. Merci à eux aussi d'être hyper vigilant concernant les allergies alimentaires, ça en fait une safe place pour ceux qui ont des intolérances comme moi.
Mention particulière pour notre serveur habituel Mike avec sa gentillesse & sa patience :)
Came here for weekend brunch & had the Gnocchis Shakshuka while my friends had the Okonomiyaki, Chicken Waffle, & Breakfast Sandwich.
The service was really accomodating & despite not having a reso, the staff quickly found us bar seats & gave us a table as soon as one opened up. They also took our coats/bags for us while we were at the bar which was very appreciated. The atmosphere was really warm & welcoming. Unfortunately, I found my Gnoccis Shakshouka a bit bland & drowned out by the tomatoe-y flavour. In contrast, the Okonomiyaki I tried was full of flavour & the kimchi in the dish was quite refreshing. Overall, I give this vibrant verdun vegan joint a 4/5 particularly because of the atmosphere & service.
Love their brunch menu! Have been a returning customer for many years now. Everything is delicious, one of the best vegan spot in Montreal. Perfect for a date or birthday celebration, the decor is really nice too.
Après deux excellents brunchs à l'Archway, j'ai eu l'occasion d'y faire mon premier souper dans le cadre de Montréal à Table. Le menu dégustation en quatre services, offrant deux choix par plat, nous a permis de goûter à l'intégralité des propositions. Tous les plats étaient fantastiques, avec un coup de coeur pour le Maitake & l'Okonomiyaki. L'accord mets & vins était également très réussi! Nous avons pu partager les deux options de vin à chaque service (sauf le dessert), dégustant ainsi six vins différents. Je recommande vivement cette adresse !
We visited from out of town & tried both the brunch & the experience menu. The food was delicious for brunch, however the server brought us the wrong dish. We figured maybe we weren't super clear with our English when we ordered & were still happy with the dish she brought. The discovery menu was a great experience. We paired it with wine & were quite happy with the entire meal. The only misstep was the lack of acknowledgment that we were celebrating a birthday, which was noted on the reservation. We would definitely still recommend this restaurant & try it again if we visit Montreal, but the details matter.
Excellent resto végane, malheureusement le seul de Verdun. Les frites de tofu sont dans mes choix numéro 1, succulentes & gouteuses. Les brunchs sont tout aussi incroyables. Gardez ce resto en vie car il est le seul dans ce quartier!
The brunch & dinner at Archway are both incredible. Each dish is better than the next, the service is impeccable & the atmosphere is really nice. This isn't a vegan restaurant that pretends to serve meat; it's just an authentically good restaurant.
One of (if not my top) favorite restaurants to go to! The menu changes are always delicious, the staff is always warm, welcoming & very friendly! The atmosphere is warm, cozy & inviting + the food presentation is just incredible! I love coming here for dinner, but I LOVE brunch! I always recommend people to come here! Always LOVE the selection of mocktails + cocktails!
I was referred to Archway, & enthusiastically for brunch! I was super excited to try the Benedict. If I'm ever brave enough to eat butter & eggs again, I'm all over eggs benny. So, a GREAT vegan restaurant with a vegan benny? Cool. Except...the coolness of the "no egg" was outweighed by the overpowering sweetness of the jackfruit (sort of unsurprising as jackfruit can be a bit too much,) the chipotle was undetectable & the sauce tasted nothing like hollandaise, not even a near-but-vegan sort of thing. I feel I was upsold on their mimosa--albeit a cocktail version--& all I really wanted was some fresh squeezed oj. But, my bad, I didn't read that their mimosa was not MY mimosa. Interesting, but again so sickly sweet it was overpowering. Next time I'm in town, I'm going for dinner!

We have traveled the world & this is truly some of the best food - vegan or otherwise - that we have experienced anywhere. We ordered from the brunch menu (available until 4pm! Even during the week!) & both the sweet & savory options were superlative, demonstrating nuance without resorting to the "more is more" conceit that too many vegan restaurants substitute for sophistication. Neither prohibitively expensive nor stuffy in atmosphere, this is a destination restaurant & we look forward to planning our return.
Food was delicious & the presentation was beautiful! Even though the restaurant was almost empty when we arrived at opening, we had to sit with the sun in our eyes or at the bar because the other tables were reserved for later, so a reservation is recommended! The server wasn't the warmest, but the food was so good it made up for it. Also, the cost was a bit more than other brunches, but definitely a fair price for the portion & quality of the food. Will definitely be returning!
