Reviews portray Chai Paratha as a warm family run spot in Montreal serving authentic Lahori and Pakistani breakfast and parathas, with chai and halwa puri, appreciated for fresh homemade flavors and welcoming hospitality that often feels like home; the menu is loved for aloo paratha, chicken paratha, lacha paratha and rich karak chai, though a few notes mention a small busy space, occasional service hiccups, and prices that some feel are high for portion sizes.
Aloo Paratha was made fresh to order & deliciously flavourful.... & spicy. While I absolutely love chai, I don't believe I've had Karak chai before & found this style more on the bitter side.
The restaurant is small & can maybe fit about 20-25 people in total.
The only turn off about this visit was that you could hear all the noises coming from the bathroom & the owner decided to do some drilling work during business hours & while diners were enjoying their dinner. A little unprofessional in my opinion. The repairs didn't appear urgent
We ordered two combos - Aloo (potato) paratha & Gobi (cauliflower) paratha - each served with yogurt & Karak Chai. The service was courteous & quick, & the food was absolutely delicious with an authentic Lahori taste & flavor. Every bite reminded us of traditional home-style cooking.
A must-visit spot in Downtown Montreal for anyone craving genuine Lahori-style parathas & chai. Highly recommended!
We ordered Alu paratha & paneer parantha combo with ginger chai, parathas & chai both were very tasty. But quantity of raita with paratha was not enough also had to order pickle & butter on side. I also ask for warm water which they refuse to warm for us & instead offer me water bottle which was obviously not warm at all.
I visited Chai paratha on a Montreal trip last month. This place was a must try on my to do list & I must say, it didn't disappoint! I loved the beautiful, cultural interiors & the food was finger licking good. As others mentioned in their reviews, we felt at home there as the owners who are a sweet couple chatted with us & gave us recommendations from the menu. The chai was amazing, the aloo parathas was flavirful & soft & the best part is, everything was so reasonable. I recommend this place to anyone visiting Montreal & who would wanted to have an authentic & delicious brunch!
I just visited chai paratha restaurant, the food over there is always Fresh & yummy. The owner is very polite & elegant. Very good place & people. Allah pak bless them more.Ameen.
Neither the food, nor the service etc was good. Paratha was very oily & all four of us had stomach troubles after eating it.
They don't even include pickle & butter with paratha plates, & you have to pay extra $1 each for them, when the price is already so expensive.
Further it's a self serve place where food is given in disposable plates with disposable forks etc. Also the seating space is small & not clean.
Restaurant is also quite dirty.
We had such an amazing experience at Chai Partha Restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious & full of authentic flavors. The paratha with chicken & aloo was perfectly cooked - crispy, soft, & packed with taste. & the halwa puri was the highlight of our meal - fresh, flavorful, & easily the best we've had.
The service was warm & welcoming, & the atmosphere made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a place with great food & a cozy vibe, Chai Partha is definitely worth visiting. Highly recommended!

This place serves absolutely delicious halwa puris, aloo parathas, & chicken parathas. Their karak chai is rich & full of flavor. Every bite here feels like it's been made with the same warmth & care as a home-cooked meal - just like mom's cooking.
Today, I had the pleasure of visiting this remarkable place for a late breakfast & lunch. The chai was rich, perfectly brewed, & carried the authentic Pakistani karak flavour, with just the right balance of sweetness. The chicken paratha was fresh, delicately flaky, & generously filled with tender, well seasoned chicken that complemented the tea beautifully. Together, they evoked the warm, homely essence of a traditional Pakistani breakfast. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking an authentic & satisfying desi culinary experience.
We came all the way from Toronto & wow - Chai Paratha Montréal blew us away! We ordered the lacha paratha with anda piyaz & karak chai, & everything was 10/10. Authentic, home-cooked flavors that instantly reminded us of a proper desi breakfast - crispy, fresh, & full of soul. The prices were super reasonable too, which made it even better. Honestly, nothing in Toronto even comes close to this place. A hidden gem that deserves all the love. Can't wait to come back! 👏
