Review Summary

Aylwin Deli has established itself as a standout destination within the Atwater Market, earning high praise for its exceptional smoked meat, tender brisket, and delicious Reuben sandwiches. While the menu offers a diverse range of high-quality items, including impressive breakfast sandwiches and ricotta pancakes, the consistent focus on flavorful, well-prepared barbecue shines through in every dish. Guests frequently highlight the welcoming and efficient service, noting that the staff contributes significantly to the overall pleasant atmosphere. Although some visitors observe that the pricing can be on the higher side and the seating is limited to high-top counters, the general consensus remains that the quality of the food and the care put into each meal make it a must-visit spot for locals and tourists alike.

I haven't been a huge fan of the traditional smoked meat sandwiches I've had around the city. I find them quite one dimensional in flavour & unfortunately a little dry.

The Reuben I shared here was enjoyable because the sauerkraut added some much needed acidity & crunch. Plus the bread was toasted, which also added to the overall experience. I also really enjoy the smokiness of this place's Texan style bbq.

I also shared a brisket sandwich with my friend & we both agreed that this was even better than the Reuben. It was flavourful, tender, & juicy.

The fries & coleslaw were very good accompaniments to round out the richness of the two sandwiches.

My new fav bbq place in Mtl.

I ate THE BEST Ruben sandwich Montreal has probably seen in decades. When smoke meat meets proper bbq culture with a splash of real deli aesthetics. This place was a goldmine as a booth at the market but as a brick & mortar it's a gift from the brisket gods 🙏

Been wanting to try Aylwin for a long time & finally got the chance. It definitely does not disappoint. Everything was top notch. Would love to try their full bbq offering in the summer.

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.

A must-try for locals & tourists. Aylwin BBQ has consistently been serving the best brisket in Montreal for years. Adding deli options like Montreal smoked meat through a year-round location indoors is an awesome move. They put the smoke in smoked meat.

I like Aylwin Deli. I just have no idea what it is supposed to be. It's laid out like a cafe. It's called a Deli. But the menu is not a deli menu except for a few items...& it's listed as a BBQ restaurant. Despite the conceptual confusion, the food here is pretty good & well priced. I had the ricotta pancakes, which isn't a common item & this was the least I recall paying for the dish in Montreal. The guy behind the counter provided amazing service. All of the seating is hightop counter seating, which I don't love but since I was alone this time anyways it was fine.

Today was my second time going to Aylwin Deli. My buddy's & I took advantage of the Weekend Brunch-BQ & ordered 3 different sandwiches. They were all excellent. Brisket sandwich, smoke meat & the pulled pork. (my recommendation to anyone reading this).

We live around Ile Perrot where Smoke meat pete is… & Aylwins' bbq lowkey hits different

This place is super solid. Consistently delicious & the prices are very fair.
A lot of space to sit but they are all wall mounted tables.

Cool people working there & they are clearly invested in the deli's success.
