Overall, Arthur's Nosh Bar is widely praised for its cottage cheese pancakes and latkes, with many noting the menu blends Jewish soul food with a modern twist. The McArthur sandwich and other brunch staples like shakshouka and the babka are repeatedly described as delicious and satisfying, though several reviews mention high prices relative to portions. Ambience is often highlighted for bright, airy spaces and inviting decor, and reservations are commonly recommended to avoid peak hour waits. Service varies by visit, ranging from warm, attentive teams to slower days during busy periods, with some comments about long waits or limited availability of items and a few unfriendly host experiences. Overall, Arthur's Nosh Bar is regarded as a standout brunch option in Montreal, offering comforting dishes with reliable quality and a lively atmosphere, tempered by occasional price concerns, wait times, and service hiccups.
We ordered a Latke smograsbord, I like the scrambled egg of it, which is creamy, but the bread was too hard. The other one we order was pancake with buleberry, the pancake was normal & the sauce was too sweet for me. envirnment was good, you can choose a place under the transparent roof & enjoy the sunlight.
Arthur's Nosh Bar lives up to its reputation with fantastic food & service. The high-end food court concept is executed brilliantly, making it a great choice for a satisfying meal. Here's a fun twist: the avocado toast seems to have a language preference & costs a dollar less when ordered from the French menu. lol. Our server chuckled & assured us it's just a glitch they're working on fixing. It was delicious. 5 ⭐️ all around!
This Arthur's allows for reservations, & that makes it my favourite location! Love the chicken schnitzel sandwich (buttery-fried challah bread, perfectly done schnitzel, pickle, etc). Options for all! & if you have a sweet tooth, get the cookie.
Came for brunch & would definitely recommend. Tried the shakshuka & the raspberry french toast with a side of pickles & grilled salami. For drinks we got the lemonade & green tea. Lemonade was refreshing. The shakshuka was my favourite, so savoury & delicious! Would definitely recommend the shakshuka. The raspberry French toast was great, the mascarpone white chocolate topping was unique. This location takes reservations which is nice. Staff were friendly & service was good. The open kitchen is cool, you can watch the staff prepare the dishes.
Nothing more to say than they have the best pancakes I've ever tried! The Syrniki (cottage cheese) pancakes are amazing, & the syrup makes them even better. Personally, I think the service was quite average & a bit slow, but the food is well worth it.
The food was good but better at the main location in St Henri. The service was awful - not only slow but the orders came mixed up. Slowness is not ideal at lunch time when your main clientele is office workers on lunch. My friend asked for an iced coffee with oat milk & got it black, I ordered a coffee that I never got (& realized only as I was leaving that I was charged the $4 for a filtered coffee I never received...). No one came to check on us after our food came. The food was good & standard for Arthur's. Irritated about spending a combined $10+ on coffee & both orders being wrong/no shows. I wouldn't come back here. Visit the OG location for the proper experience. $67 for two lunches (breakfast sandwich & smorgasbord), two coffees & a $10 side of latkes (2, which were each about the circumference of a tangerine) feels a bit excessive when service is terrible.
Best pancakes in Montreal. Just as good as the original location with shorter wait times & located centrally downtown. Still encompasses similar atmosphere & vibes of the original location but in a much more modern way. Order the Syrniki original & strawberries, & I prefer the original. I think the strawberry is a bit over powering. Pancakes with the syrup are the perfect balance of salty & sweet. Service was very average & not great. However, the food is well worth it.

Went for a light lunch after walking the Vieux Carré. Shared a Thai-like green papaya salad with local of other ingredients & scrambled eggs, latke, challah & cucumber salad, all tasty & well prepared. This is a sit down restaurant amid a food court.
I think the pancakes are just as amazing as the og location, & this spot is very convenient since they can have more guests & it's not insanely crowded. Though the atmosphere of the og can't be beat in homeliness, cathcart is a nice space & great service 🙂↕️ My absolute favorite pancakes in the city, i get syrup on the side however since it can be a little artificial tasting imo & I like to control the proportions. I recommend the latke always as well

The food is good here. The menu changes a little bit from time to time & unfortunately it's not flexible at all. We wanted the eggs & salami to be as a sandwich, but they refused to fix it the way we wanted. The pancakes weren't as crispy as they should be. The coffee is tasteless, but it's the only coffee they have.
I have been to both locations & though I do think the original location has better quality food, the location & PVM is convenient for those who work downtown. I do caution however it is very hard to find if you've never been to the new food court at PVM. I like that this location allows you to make reservations, however if you do not show up there potentially could be a fee charged to you since you need a credit card to hold your reservation. Despite the location, this restaurant was very baby & kid friendly & the hostess sat is in an area where we were able to easily store our double stroller, which was much appreciated. The service was also a big slow but we came during lunch rush so it was understandable. The latke smorgasbord is a must for your first visit as well as the cottage cheese pancakes. My sons who are 2 & 4 are everything!
La nourriture était vraiment bonne, beaucoup de saveur & de goût . La babka avec la fleur de sel incroyable. & le service était parfait agréable & toujours présent . Hâte d'y retourne
