Amazing brunch at Chai Paratha! 🫶 The Aloo Paratha was absolutely delicious, & the ambiance was so cozy.
Their customer service truly stood out they even surprised us with a complimentary sweet dish after brunch, which made our day. Such a lovely experience & one of my favorite memories from Montreal ❤?

Really cozy small restaurant. Everything is homemade & quite hot when served! You can tell it is made with great care & the taste is amazing. Definitely try their desserts. The Gulab Jamon was better than most places I have tried.

10/10 staff friendliness.

The seating area is a little small, I imagine it is best for solo or small groups but this means it is nice & quiet.

On a Monday afternoon, the husband craved taste of home food, so off we went around a Montreal downtown to find what will satisfy him. Chai Paratha Montreal is a cozy & super cute restaurant but what really is the heart of it, is the food it serves. We ordered aloo paratha that arrived piping hot & flavors that will win anybody over. Chicken tikka roll came the same way - packed with flavors rolled into freshly made paratha. Finally, Chapli kebab, that was like explosion of best chicken flavors. As much as I am raving about the food, the service is just as great! If in Montreal & wondering where to get some authentic paratha & more, this is the place!

Visited Chai Paratha over last weekend after hearing about food taste here from a couple of friend so i literally drove from CT-USA to Montreal to take stop for food & it was surely worth it.
Ordered anda paratha, aaloo paratha & saag. If you are from Pakistan & know the authenticity of taste of Punjab (lahore), you will surely enjoy the food. Food taste was nostalgic.
Above all the owner (aunty) was super nice. Had a quick talk to her & she was super nice & sweet & even helped me find Pakistani mangoes in Montreal since I was visiting only for a few hours & wanted to quickly buy mangoes.
If i ever end up going to montreal, this is surely going to be my place to stop by for food.
