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.

Je suis une habituée du Café Cherrier depuis plusieurs années. Le personnel est accueillant & surtout courtois. Il maintient sa réputation d'être un lieu de rencontre. Que dire de leur table d'hôte, un pur délice. Bravo à toute l'équipe.

Tous les plats (assiette de terrines, tartare, rognons, île flottante) étaient de la qualité habituelle au Café Cherrier (produits utilisés, préparation & présentation). Petit bémol : service un peu lent mais c'était compréhensible, terrasse surpeuplée.

Bon repas. Par contre, on sent que le Cherrier a perdu de son lustre d'antan. L'ambiance, le service & le menu ont changé. Un restaurant comme un autre.

Beaucoup de produits congelés.
Le lieu est beau & agréable & le service est bon mais la qualité de la nourriture n'est pas là. & c'est cher pour cette qualité.
L'image "bistrot français" est cute mais ça ne suffit pas.
