I was so happy to see Alwyn's at Atwater Market. Having heard so much about it over the years, I knew I had to stop by.

I ordered the Alwynator burger, which was featured on their sandwich board, & it absolutely did not disappoint. At around $14, I'd say it's a solid value for the quality & portion. The burger was juicy, flavorful, & satisfying-the kind of comfort food that instantly puts a smile on your face specially when I was so hungry 😋

As I'm writing this review, though, I'm watching people mostly ordered & raved about the beef brisket sandwich… & now I'm seriously regretting my decision. 🥲 I should have known earlier & ordered both. The brisket looked incredible, & now I'm somehow hungry all over again.

Looks like I'll just have to come back-& honestly, that's not a bad problem to have. If you're at Atwater Market, Alwyn's is definitely worth checking out. Just learn from my mistake: order the brisket too. Sob sob.

this place has an edible midas touch. everything is delicious, the ribs, the sausages, the slaws, the briskets, everything. it's no surprise that their smoked meat poutine is probably one of the best you can get anywhere. beautiful gravy, quality cheese curds, & best of all the juicy smoked meat with a bark to die for.

PS. food for thought, you should consider copying what dinette triple crown used to do (R.I.P.) & provide the option for picnic baskets to eat out by the canal!

Excellent brisket & great neighbourhood spot.

Stopped by Aylwin Deli & had the brisket - it was really, really good. Tender, flavourful, & clearly made with care. You can tell they take pride in what they're serving.

It's a simple, no-nonsense spot with good vibes & quality food. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm craving something comforting & well done.

Could straight up be the best Reuben sandwich in Montreal.

Really high-quality ingredients, nice cut of meat, cool ambience, super friendly staff, & of course, the location can't be beat.

Considering the quality & service & the fact that they had five full grown men working there in the middle of the day, $20 after tax & tip for this sandwich was well worth it

The Reuben Sandwich was excellent juicy, flavorful, & made with top-quality ingredients. The layers of smoked meat were generous & perfectly balanced, making every bite satisfying.

The smoked meat poutine was on another level
