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.

Lunch sur la terrasse (déconfinement oblige) très agréable. Toujours aussi bon, même si la carte est légèrement limitée, mais les classiques (dont les frites) y sont !

Was beautiful & not too busy but service was slow. We did not get any bread & the waiter forgot both salads we ordered so we only ended up getting one. Menu was very limited only 3 choices of mains. Regardless, it was a lovely evening we enjoyed it & were happy to be patient while restaurants get going again after so much time closed.
