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.

Trois erreurs en trois, steak dure comme de la roche, inversion des cuissons, oublier de commander l'entrée, erreur sur le plat principal, bref, pas vraiment une bonne expérience. Resto non-plein mais avec un bruit infernal.

La salade au volaille n'était pas aussi bon que l'habitude. Le service est excellente. C'est toujours un plaisir d'être servi par le serveur qui est là depuis 38 ans! Il est très gentil & efficace!

Une institution à Montréal: excellent restaurant d'inspiration bistro français...

Bonne nourriture, excellent service, toujours un plaisir renouvelé d'y aller dîne

Après plus de 15 ans sans y avoir mis les pieds, j'avoue que je suis retombée sous le charme du Café Cherrier. Toujours l'ambiance parisienne décontractée, où les différentes conversations servent de musique de fond. Service courtois & efficace. La nourriture était savoureuse & les produits frais (mention spéciale au velouté de champignons & oignons avec fromage de grotte).
