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 sommes arrivés tôt, il y avait peu de monde. Le service était donc rapide & courtois, la nourriture à notre convenance & l'ambiance, avec musique de jazz feutrée, agréable & propice à la conversation.

Le service était impeccable. Malheureusement je ne peux en dire autant de la nourriture. Mon compagnon & moi avons pris la cuisse de canard qui s'est avérée sèche & coriace dans les deux cas. Très décue

We visit from Connecticut each year, & dinner at Cafe Cherrier is something we always do. We love the classic bistro atmosphere, the attentive & friendly service from waiters like Bernard, & of course the food—including onion soup, fish soup, bread pudding, the frisée salad with duck, the tartare & the steak. All prepared perfectly. Thank you.
