Reviews of Bistrot Montréal-Trudeau describe a mixed airport dining experience where service and value vary; some praise decent food and fast service given the location, with fair prices and hearty portions, while others flag overpriced coffee, average dishes, and issues like cold ham, missing slaw or pickle, or a dirty seating area. The sandwiches are noted as workable, with the croque monsieur highlighted by some as a go to and a kale or broccoli slaw side and pickle wedge pairing adding a pleasant touch, though a few experiences mention meals that are reheated and still overpriced. Staff are described as friendly and attentive by some, with efforts to accommodate traveling families, while others report long delays, chaotic transfers, and a lack of clear information in a very busy airport. Overall, for some travelers this is the best option here, but opinions range from disappointment to reassurance depending on the visit.
Très décue & insatisfaite du service recu aujourdhui a 8:00. Il nous manquait un accompagnement dans notre plat donc nous sommes retournés au comptoir pour le demander, & on nous a catégoriquement refusé de nous le donner. Payer 18,65$ pour un sandwich & une salade, ne recevoir que le sandwich & payer le meme prix, cest frustrant. Même en expliquant poliment la situation, l'employée n'a jamais accepté de nous donner ce qui nous etait dû. Pour moi, cest inacceptable.
Bistro Trudeau is a great option if you're looking for a quick, quality bite while traveling through the airport. The service was fast & very friendly, which always makes a difference-especially in a busy airport environment.
The selection of pastries, sandwiches, & breakfast items appears fresh & well-prepared, & everything I tried was enjoyable. The coffee was solid as well-definitely a good way to start the day or recharge between flights.
Overall, this is a convenient & dependable spot with a positive atmosphere. A great choice for travelers needing something quick without compromising on quality. Wishing the team continued success!

Absolutely disgusting place. Had a smoked salmon bagel, a ham sandwich & a bottle of water - it cost $55.. they both looked like I had picked them up from the garbage bin.. the salmon completely discoloured, i didn't even take a bite at it, & the ham sandwich tasted like absolute crap.. I figured for the price I paid at least the tables & chairs would be somewhat clean.. not the case. Big screw up from my part for going here..
--Update! $31.00 for a coffee & a sandwich but look at it! It was quickly heated but the ham was cold & no slaw or pickle. It was already overpriced but this sure was dissapointing. The coffee is Lavazza so it is a great cup of coffee still.-- The sandwiches are good, Croque Monseiur is my go to, it is a panini with ham, cheese & Dijon mustard. The pops are 4 dollars each for 500 ml & the chip are 4.30 each so for a sandwich, chips & pop is just over $31.00. Not the best value for a dollar but it is good. The sandwich comes with a Kale, broccoli slaw that is really good & a Pickle wedge that really goes great with the sandwich.
Early Dec2024 Canadian Bistro that generally serves Montreal style sandwiches & specializes in bagels, breads, & smoke meats. Travellers to Montreal are often recommended to try their bagels & smoked meats. The bagels are less dense & mildly sweet & is ideally toasted to bring out the aroma & crunchy texture. Counter service is fast & efficient. The airport stall outlet has limited seating & will often get filled quickly.
One of the best airport meals I have ever had. Mushroom/vegetable painini with side salad was very tasty & for an airport, good value at $20. Good selection of sandwiches, fresh salads & hot plates. People are friendly too. I do not understand why others have said bad things about this place.

Get the chicken plate it's to die for! It's a large chicken leg, roasted potatoes, & roasted veggies. It's a little pricey but well worth it. They have really great coffee, cappuccinos, lattes! They serve a variety of salads, sandwiches, soup, pressed juices, snacks, fruit & fresh pastries. Best airport food ever & private seating area for clients! (Next to gate 48)
Smoked Meat Sandwich was pretty good, it cost me around 25 dollars. The location of the store was next to my boarding gate, so it was very convenient for me.
April 2024 I found the food here to be delicious. Lots of selection whether it be sandwiches, meals or drinks. Typical airport prices....not cheap. The chicken meal with vegetables cost around CA $20. Nice bright area to sit down & eat ones meal. This location was the one before you enter a security area (& you cannot return once passing by). There is another location once passing by this area, but it is a smaller area & they did not sell the same iitems. A smaller menu selection.
