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.

Le meilleur tartare de boeuf à vie en plus d'être une généreuse portion.

We go to Montreal a couple of times a year & always have at least one dinner here. Our favorite dishes include the salade frisee, blood sausage w/ apples, the fish soup, the house special ribeye. But as much as the food we love the casual, very French atmosphere & the friendly but attentive service from waiters like Bernard. Just close your eyes & listen to the happy chatter, proof of a good restaurant.

We were in Montreal for 6 days & ate here twice. From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted warmly by the staff. The food was delicious; the service excellent. We really appreciated the lack of blaring music so the 6 of us could talk to one another. This place is a real gem.

J'ai choisi le café Cherrier pour un événement surprise à l'occasion du 60ème anniversaire de ma femme adorée...tout s'est passé à merveille, la petite salle intime, le grand écran pour la présentation d'un montage vidéo & par dessus tout, la charmante & efficace serveuse Gabrielle. Merci encore à toute l'équipe!
