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.

Café Cherrier est parmi nos restaurants favoris & on y va régulièrement avec plaisirs. Hier soir il y avait beaucoup de monde & la cuisine était plus lente que d'habitude. Par contre, les plats & le service étaient excellents.

As always a « sure bet » for a Sunday brunch !!! Service was friendly & efficient. It can get pretty crowded on weekends so make sure you reserve in advance. Café Cherrier is a must if you're visiting or Montrealers alike.

Le café Cherrier ne déçoit jamais au niveau de l'ambiance. Toutefois, je suis déçue de leur offre au niveau des options sans gluten. Pour le dîner, même la salade de chèvre chaud ne pouvait pas se faire faire sans gluten, puisque' tout le chèvre avait déjà été pré-monté sur une croûte'. J'ai trouvé mon second choix, les moules marinières, ordinaires. Les frites qui les accompagnaient l'étaient aussi. Finalement, je pense qu'un endroit comme le café Cherrier peut se permettre de garder une petite quantité de pain tranché sans gluten, congelée, afin de pouvoir en offrir à ses clients sur demande (tout comme ils servent la baguette au début du repas à la majorité des clients). Je comprends que le pain sans gluten frais ne se conserve pas bien, mais en garder congeler est une option tout à fait abordable, & cela ferait toute la différence pour des clients qui ont une allergie alimentaire bien frustrante!
