Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Aylwin Deli as a standout spot for smoked meat and BBQ in Montreal, with the Reuben, brisket, and other sandwiches delivering tenderness, smoky depth, and well balanced flavors, and the poutine, fries, and coleslaw serving as excellent accompaniments; the menu also shines with breakfast items and ricotta pancakes, while weekend brunch offerings add variety. The atmosphere and staff are repeatedly praised for friendliness and good service, and value is commonly noted as fair. Some critiques note that the Reuben should be served piping hot and that portions or meat content could be more generous for the price, that the smoked gravy in the poutine can be overly salty, and that the concept of deli versus BBQ can feel a little confusing. The best sandwiches and the overall quality keep earning repeat visits, and the location is welcomed as a reliable go-to for casual dining and a robust smokehouse experience.

Insanely good breakfast sandwiches devoured in the middle of the beautiful Atwater Market. Enjoyed pulled pork last year at their market take out stand too. Quality food created by awesome people. Thank you! Wishing you much success.

My go too when at atwater market. Loved the original outdoor stand & now that they have the deli im able to enjoy aylwins all year long. The brisket sandwhich is phenomenal, a must try. Don't be intimidated by the line its well worth the wait. The crew gets out the orders quick. Highly recommend my favorite brisket in the city!

Ricotta pancakes with strawberries - best pancakes I tried in North America! This place is famous for bbq meats, brisket especially, but everything else they offer is equally delicious! Really happy they opened permanent shop at Atwater market.

Reuben Sandwich, the team at @aylwin_bbq have but together there a new spot that is going to more permanent in the Atwater Market year round called @aylwin_deli & so far I have to say it's great!

Had to get a hold of the Reuben Sandwich. I'm a sucker for a good sandwich & a Reuben is just what the good doctor ordered! Tender & smoked meat, falling apart, perfectly toasted & grain bread with all the fixing! We also got the poutine & there tator tots, really really good! 10/10 love the new spot guys congrats!

Its been years i was hoping the Alwin would open a place instead of just showing up between may & october in the atwater market!
Finally a dream but i hope they will bring the brisket sandwich to their new menu !

Eating at the Atwater market is always less than ideal but that's not what I go out for. Aylwin deli's main attraction is good; reuben sandwich for the win. The smoked meat poutine was just ok which is a shame because the fries & the meat are excellent. It's the sauce that's lacking. The hot dog was also underwhelming.

The best smoked meat poutine I've ever had. Simple, friendly place hidden in the Atwater market. The chefs take their smoked brisket seriously, & convert drippings into exquisite gravy. Underrated gem.
