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.

We really enjoyed the food (awesome meal salads), cocktails, the lovely vine-covered terrace & attentive service. & the prices were reasonable for a mid-range bistro/brasserie.

Très bon service mais depuis la dernière fois que j'y suis allée il y a une dizaine d'années, ça semble s'être détérioré. La nourriture est correcte, sans plus & il n'y a pas d'ambiance (nous étions sur la terrasse, pas de musique).
