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.

Nous y sommes allés mercredi soir le 16 octobre 2024. Le service était admirable, courtois, attentionné & rapide. Les plats sont bons, avec des prix bien corrects. Heureusement que nous avions réservé car le restaurant était plein. Le seul hic est le bruit généré par les discussions des clients. La salle est écho. Il fallait que ma compagne & moi tendions l'oreille & parlions assez fort pour nous entendre. Mais c'est ce à quoi on s'attend dans une brasserie style français. Sinon, tout était parfait.

Du surgelé en petite quantité, sans aucun effort de présentation, mais au prix d'un vrai brunch qui lui au moins aurait le café inclus.

Ambiance sympathique dans un cadre de bistro classique, pour une cuisine de bistro simple & bien réalisé. Bon rapport qualité-prix, la table d'hôte est disponible en soirée, ce qui est appréciable. Choix de vin au verre tout à fait raisonnable. Le service est efficace & prévenant. Ce restaurant est un bon classique de qualité.

Service was fantastic. Only had a salad which was good but not amazing, good wine selection & good atmosphere. A good place to meet a friend for lunch.

Nice location & really spacious, service was great but found the food to be a bit too basic, taste was ok but plate a bit bland, eggs were cooked really good though. If you're looking for a nice looking spot & an easy brunch this is a solid option but you can get more for the same price in other brunch places.
