In 1861, Thomas Wilson first established its hardware store at 400 Place Jacques Cartier and for over 155 years, this building stood at the very heart of the Old Montreal. In 1970, the iconic French restaurant Chez Queux moved in and would remain there for well over 40 years.
Today it is our turn to leave our mark on this legendary Montreal building. We welcome all who come by, providing food the way we like it, simple, fresh and delicious. After a long day of sightseeing or while on a break from your bicycle ride in the Old Port, drop by Comptoir 400, we are always happy too see (and feed) you!
Comptoir 400 comes across as a lively Old Port spot with a pleasant terrace and a mix of solid dishes and variable service, where reviewers praise the location, atmosphere and flavors in items like mussels, poutine, pizza, burgers and fish, while noting that portions and prices can be inconsistent and some dishes arrive cold or underseasoned. The menu spans seafood, mains and shareables, with several mentions of bruschetta, salads and the arugula pizza as standouts, though a few experiences describe slower service, slow drink refills and uneven attention from staff. The ambiance is repeatedly described as warm and welcoming, making it a good casual option for families, groups or a relaxed dinner, especially outdoors, but timing can suffer during peak hours and some visits feel rushed. Overall, Comptoir 400 is seen as a worthwhile stop for a tasty, location-driven meal with friendly service, yet guests should temper expectations about consistency across visits.
Très bon service. Les cocktails sont très bons & bien dosés. Le service est rapide pour un restaurant à Pizzas & la nourriture est bonne. Je recommence fortement le serveur Ismail qui s'occupe davantage de la terrasse si jamais vous avez la chance d'obtenir une table en cet été touristique.
Our family had a wonderful experience at Le Comptoir 400. The pizzas & crepes were delicious, & the cocktails were a delight. The service was outstanding, with friendly & attentive staff. We were very happy with our meal & will definitely return. Highly recommend!🤩💓👏

Delicious Italian pizza around old port of Montreal. We ordered the XL pizza half Marco Pollo & half Americano. Service was great & comfy. Strongly suggest the Americano
Serveurs très aimable, très bon service, la pizza americano est succulente. On est arrivé tard & on a quand même été servi. Le gérant a été très gentil, je recommande fort.
