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.

Excellent service. Menu intéressant. Salade césar moins bonne qu'avant. Calemars pas assez cuits. Cuisine décevante.

Il y avait longtemps que je n'avais pas été au Café Cherrier, & j'avoue que comme toujours ma compagne & moi avons été sincèrement enchantés du repas & du service.

Toutefois, comme l'ambiance parisienne du café est intimement liée avec nos plus illustres chansonniers québécois, que vous affichez dignement d'ailleurs sur plusieurs de vos murs, je pense que la musique, devrait-être davantage en sourdine.

En effet, cette ambiance sympathiquement bruyante & typique à l'endroit, ne fait pas, selon mon opinion, un très bon ménage avec le bruit naturel de cette même ambiance.

Mais voilà, ce n'est pas un obstacle à un éventuel retour, soyez-en assuré.

Merci & au revoir,

André Asselin

Comme la terrasse est fermée maintenant c'était trop chaud, il faudrait au moins ouvrir si vous ne mettez pas la climatisation
