Review Summary

Café Cherrier is widely regarded as a quintessential Montreal institution, cherished by locals and visitors alike for its authentic French bistro atmosphere, classic menu, and iconic vine-covered terrace. Many patrons frequently return to enjoy consistent favorites like steak frites, onion soup, and brunch, often highlighting the warm, professional service and the restaurant's big-city yet down-to-earth vibe. While the vast majority of experiences reflect a long-standing tradition of excellence and a reliable destination for celebrations or casual gatherings, some guests have noted occasional inconsistencies regarding service speed, noise levels, or fluctuations in food quality and portion sizes. Despite these mixed remarks, the establishment remains a beloved landmark that continues to capture the charm of a Parisian café in the heart of the Plateau.

My girlfriend & I took a trip to Montréal & was very lucky to have breakfast at Café Cherrier! The staff was amazing, patient, & very kind. The food was beautifully plated & tasted even better than it looked. We both had the eggs benedict & it's easy to say that we'll be returning. Merci beaucoup Café Cherrier!

Tout est vraiment très bien, mais j'ai une seule nuance à apportez au sujet de la qualité du thé, qui laisse à désirer, pour les personnes qui aiment vraiment le thé. On offre du thé en sachet, pas bio, peu savoureux, très tiède. Le service, l'accueil, la nourriture, tout est très bien.

OEufs bénédictine pas mangeables. Muffins anglais secs & durs. Sauce hollandaise en poudre probablement. On va passer notre tour. Décevant.

Excellent restaurant with great service & food. Our waiter was very attentive & helpful since we did not understand parts of the menu in French. The food was extremely fresh & well presented. I would definitely return next time I am in Montreal.
