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.

Service hors pair hier soir par le serveur Bernard 👍
Manque un peu de choix pour les vins au verre
Nous sommes quand même des habitués de ce Café où nous aimons profité de la terrasse l'été & de l'ambiance chaleureuse l'hiver!

Les moules & les frites étaient délicieuses. Le kir était très moyen (probablement la qualité du vin?) & la salade verte était un peu insignifiante, sans doute réfrigérée à l'avance avec peu de vinaigrette. Soir de party de bureau: un peu insupportable... Service très correct.

Partys de Noël, pas une place pour un souper avec une personne âgée. Toujours aussi bon & service impeccable, même si les serveurs n'entendaient rien eux non plus.

Nous n'avons pas retrouvé le Café Cherrier d'antan. Les rognons n'avaient aucune saveur & les moules pas davantage. Le service, par contre, était excellent tout comme la crème brûlée.
