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.

J'apprécie que ce restaurant ait gardé au menu la plupart des plats qui font sa réputation depuis des décennies. Mon invité & moi avons pris une vichyssoise, des calmars frits, une salade tiède de foies de volaille & un gravlax de saumon, le tout à la hauteur du Cherrier des bons jours.

Menu correct mais sans plus , manque de variétés. La bouffe est bonne & le service impeccable. La terrasse est fort appréciée en ce début juillet .

Lieu idéal : la terrasse ombragée par une journée de canicule. Nourriture excellente (bravo pour le retour de l'onglet). Très bon service, tenant compte que non seulement les terrasses étaient bondées, mais l'intérieur aussi.
Je suis un habitué depuis une trentaine d'années. & je suis heureux que le Café Cherrier ait résisté à la pandémie.
