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.

Terrasse agréable & serveur vraiment gentil. Assiette "déjeuner" très ordinaire, surtout pour le prix (les patates goûtaient le surgelé & le petit morceau de tomate comme s'il avait voyagé depuis les ÉU). Ce resto vit probablement de son emplacement, du fait qu'il y est établi depuis longtemps.

This was our first stop upon arrival in Montreal for our vacation. It really sets the tone for the rest of the trip. Such a great restaurant.

Service was slow, server spilled salad on back of my silk blouse, ordered pork tenderloin, instead served reheated sliced pork.
I have been a loyal customer for many years. This visit ended my loyalty & I lost an expensive silk blouse in the process.

Server said only a little bit of salad on my jacket. I specially asked if any went on my blouse. She replied NO. Imagine my surprise when I arrived home & changed my blouse only to find two large oil stains down the back

It was my second time dining here & it was just as wonderful as the first time. I dined at the bar, & Victor was attentive & helpful in explaining the menu. Negroni was great, & the margaret de canard was delicious as well. Raspberry sauce was surprisingly good. I've missed the ile flottante & it was just as amazing as last time.

I loved the ambiance. The food was ok, but the waitress did not tell me that there would be an upcharge for getting two eggs (instead of one) for my salmon benedict. Also I found what was given on my plate (potatoes, two eggs on one muffin, slice of baguette) for $21 or 22 unsatisfactory & overpriced
