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.

Excellent service, the staff made us feel very welcome & were quite personable. Food was delicious, the smoked salmon with penne was subtle & filling not overwhelming & heavy. Cocktails were solid, probably 7 out of 10.

Good vibe, outdoor seating as well.

Nous sommes venues mardi le 4 août & le seul barman derrière le bar avec le bras tattoué à osé boire directement du shaker après avoir versé ma margarita. Non seulement question hygiène je suis outrée mais mon cocktail remplissait à peine le verre. Besoin de réévaluer le principe de l'hygiène & respect du client derrière le bar.
