Review Summary

Greenspot is widely regarded as a quintessential Montreal institution, celebrated for its nostalgic, vintage diner atmosphere and reliable comfort food. Many guests praise the restaurant for its generous portions, particularly its signature poutine, smoked meat sandwiches, and diverse menu options that cater to various cravings. While the majority of visitors highlight the fast service and friendly staff as key components of their positive experience, others note that the dining environment can be busy and occasionally inconsistent in terms of service attentiveness. Despite some mixed feedback regarding specific dish preparations or wait times during peak hours, most patrons view the establishment as an authentic, reasonably priced local staple that successfully captures the charm of a classic greasy spoon.

A trip in the past with the same food & atmosphere. Basic,no frills, authentic & well done food. The waitresses are professionals & enjoy what they are doing. Family , friendly feel with several regular customers. From the traditional egg & bacon to the poutine, steak & fish & chips. Opened most of the day. I love this place. Their breakfast potatoes, bacon are perfectly cooked. One of my favorite spot in Montreal.

Came here for breakfast. It was relatively early on a Sunday so there was plenty of free street parking & also no lineup to get a table. Service was great & the waitress was very quick & attentive. The food is priced very competitively & tasted descent. The kids menu pancake was somewhat thick to our taste. The decor is like a classic diner & I think they should keep it this way. All in all, great experience & one of the hidden gems in Montreal.

Brought my kids here on a visit from Ontario. Service was absolutely excellent. My girls had orders of french toast & pancakes with syrup. Finished it off with vanilla milkshakes. Grown ups at the table very much enjoyed the bottomless coffees with breakfast, which were quickly & generously refilled. There is nowhere better for breakfast in any city I've visited. Thank you.

Best poutine in the world. The smoked meat is excellent. The fries are some of the best in the univers. Club sandwich is 5 stars. Breakfast is the best in the city. Be careful, this place becomes addictive very quickly.
