Dépanneur Le Pick Up comes across in reviews as a cozy, low key counter with a strong reputation for inventive sandwiches, flavorful options and friendly service. The Cubano is repeatedly described as iconic, a warm, messy stack with crusty bread, slow roasted pork, ham, cheese, pickles and mustard that feels comforting and indulgent in a distinctly Montreal style. Vegans and vegetarians praise the menu for plant based options like vegan pulled pork, yuba and tofu skin sandwiches that deliver good texture and balance, with standout combos such as kimchi slaw, cilantro and kewpie mayo. The Grilled Seoul Chicken and Club Chipotle are highly recommended, admired for bold gochujang marinated thighs, kimchi slaw and a mix of textures and flavors, while the place is also known for a straightforward, well executed lineup that includes a capably crafted breakfast and other simple specials. Some reviewers note prices can be high for the portion size and that consistency can vary with different staff, but the overall experience is described as warm, casual and reliable, with outdoor seating, beer on tap and a sense of neighborhood pride. Longtime fans describe it as a Montreal lunch staple and a hidden gem where both meat lovers and plant based eaters find satisfying, well prepared options.
Très bon sandwich, le pain, le haut de cuisse de poulet bien juteux, la sauce, la garniture etc, tout est parfait, mais quand même overpriced. Aucun à-côté. Bonne sélection de boissons. Quelques places sur la terrasse, dans une rue tranquille.
A great little spot. Was pleasantly surprised with how good the breakfast sandwiches were. Good coffee too. Awesome outdoor seating areas in a quiet neighbourhood.

Honestly, it's an amazing place to eat. The food is fresh & made to order. & did I mention it's super cheap too? & extremely delicious? We found this space & now our whole office eats here. That's like 100 some people everytime.
Sandwich heaven! Pulled pork was superb, moist, perfectly seasoned on delicious bread. Lunch special egg sandwich with shredded veggies & honey was a symphony of flavors. Hot dog with Cole slaw was the best dog I've had in ages. It has a great selection of local craft beers which proprietor gladly described for us. It's a tiny place on a quiet corner in an old building & a remarkable place to find such culinary delights.

The coolest spot in Montreal - rumor has it, this is where hipsters were born. But to me, it's got more of an Amazon jungle vibe. Either way, it's the go-to place for the best halloumi sandwich or club sandwich in the city.
The best veggie pulled'pork' & an incredible halloumi sandwich! The staff are super friendly, & the atmosphere is really laid-back. Don't leave without trying the house hot sauces - especially the mango or tangerine
Un des meilleurs endroits pour luncher à Montréal. Tout est excellent sur le menu & la qualité est constante. J'y vais depuis longtemps & je suis toujours aussi enthousiaste d'y retourner.
Going here was the worst decision because i fear i may NEVER find a better sandwich for the rest of my life. I had the pulled pork sandwich & omfg!!! Please know that if you go here you will be forced to realize that every sandwich you have after this will be mediocre.
A cute little spot, hidden away from the main pedestrian area. The service was quick & friendly & there was plenty of outdoor seating available in the late afternoon.
Grabbed a cheeseburger, potatoes with Chipotle mayo & a green salad, & a Powermade lemonade.
The cheeseburger was tasty, but the meat was on the dry side. The potatoes were tasty & moist & the salad was really good. The lemonade was very pleasant (homemade iced tea with hibiscus, green tea, lemon & apple juice).
Was a bit disappointed with the burger, but will come back to try some of the other sandwiches.
