Aylwin Deli représente une référence en matière de préparation traditionnelle de viande fumée, se concentrant sur le salage et la cuisson à la vapeur minutieuse de la poitrine de bœuf. Le menu privilégie l'expérience classique du sandwich, utilisant du pain de seigle pour contenir de généreuses portions de viande tendre tranchée à la main. Les clients évoluent dans un environnement défini par l'arôme ciblé des épices savoureuses et le service efficace des spécialités de charcuterie. Les accompagnements comme les cornichons croquants et la salade de chou complètent les assiettes copieuses riches en protéines servies sur place. L'établissement maintient un flux opérationnel fluide, mettant l'accent sur une qualité constante pour ceux qui recherchent des mets authentiques. Des techniques d'assaisonnement expertes définissent le profil gustatif du bœuf, garantissant que chaque portion respecte les normes reconnues de texture et de saveur.
Situé au marché Atwater, Aylwin Deli s'est forgé une solide réputation en servant des sandwichs à la viande fumée, à la poitrine de bœuf et au Reuben que de nombreux clients considèrent comme les meilleurs en ville. Les visiteurs louent régulièrement la qualité et la tendreté des viandes, accompagnées d'à-côtés savoureux comme les frites, la poutine et la salade de chou. Bien que certains clients aient souligné des incohérences occasionnelles dans le service ou les prix, l'opinion générale est que la cuisine est préparée avec soin et savoir-faire. L'ambiance est souvent décrite comme accueillante et chaleureuse, ce qui en fait un choix populaire pour des repas rapides ou complets, le menu déjeuner et les pancakes recevant également des éloges notables.
Absolutely outstanding. This is hands down one of the best BBQ spots I've been to.
I had the burnt end brisket platter, the aylwinator cheeseburger, & the pulled pork sandwich, & every single item was phenomenal. The brisket was incredibly juicy, tender, & packed with smoky flavour. The burger was cooked perfectly, the bun was fresh & unbelievably soft, & every bite was excellent. The pulled pork was just as impressive-moist, flavourful, & perfectly balanced.
You can tell they take pride in everything they serve. The quality of the meat, the execution, & the attention to detail were top-notch from start to finish.
If you're looking for authentic barbecue, this place is an absolute must-visit. I'll definitely be back.
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.
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.
So happy that Aylwin has a permanent spot in atwater market now!
The BEST breakfast sandwich in town! The hot dog is delicious! The smoked meat it so so good! The most balanced lemonade!! The bbqs are insanely good!
Can't say enough good things!
