Review Summary

Café Cherrier is widely regarded as a long-standing Montreal institution, cherished by many for its classic French bistro atmosphere, consistently pleasant terrace, and reliable menu offerings like steak frites, onion soup, and brunch staples. While many patrons praise the attentive, professional service and authentic Parisian vibe, experiences remain notably mixed; some diners enjoy excellent, high-quality meals and professional interactions, while others report issues with inconsistent food preparation, occasionally inattentive service, smaller portion sizes, and excessive noise levels. Despite varying opinions on recent value and the occasional unavailability of menu items, the restaurant continues to draw loyal regulars who appreciate its charm, location, and overall experience, even if some believe it faces challenges in maintaining its historical consistency.

The food was good, the choice of wine adequate, our server was friendly. Because there was a table of 9 people beside us, the atmosphere was compromised because it became very noisy. But overall as a french Bistro it is very good & I would recommend it.

Delicious food & outstanding service!

I was fairly impressed by how simple & still tasty the dishes were. I took a salad & a dessert, & both were copious, well-prepared, & had great presentation.

Also, the service was great & super quick! Definitely coming back if I happen to be in the area.

Seconde visite à ce restaurant en 1 mois.
Cette fois si encore réussite complète pour l'accueil ,le service.
Pour la cuisine une note parfaite pour l'exécution de classiques tels que le cassoulet & le pot au feu qui étaient supérieur à ce que nous avons manger en France au printemps passé.
L'entrée de saumon saumon fumé était divine.

Bravo à toute l'équipe & longue vie a ce bistro sympathique.

It's the perfect place to treat yourself, especially to brunch. The eggs Calypso are the best I've ever had!

We had my mom's 100th birthday celebration in their private room. ~20 family members from all over. Cindy, our server was lovely, the food excellent, ambiance perfect & support for preparation, including a special menu beyond our expectations. Locking in a private room on a Saturday night in any city is special so the rest was, pardon the pun, gravy.

Nous avons fêté les 100 ans de ma mère dans leur salle privée. Une vingtaine de membres de la famille venus de partout. Cindy, notre serveuse, était adorable, la nourriture excellente, l'ambiance parfaite & l'aide apportée pour la préparation, y compris un menu spécial, a dépassé nos attentes. Réserver une salle privée un samedi soir dans n'importe quelle ville est quelque chose de spécial, donc le reste était, sans jeu de mots, du gâteau.

Nous avons choisi d'être sur la terrasse mais notre repas a été accompagné par les guêpes très présentes partout cette année.
