Greenspot comes across as a quintessential Montreal diner, celebrated for smoked meat sandwiches and legendary poutine, with generous portions and fast, friendly service, and a nostalgic retro vibe that keeps customers coming back for comforting, affordable classics, while some reviews note variations in poutine quality and occasional service hiccups, yet the overall impression is that Greenspot is an institution delivering reliable comfort food and an unpretentious, homey dining experience.
The waitress with short blond hair hates her job... Or maybe she's just having a bad day, but this should not fall on the customers. You don't need to be unfriendly... Neutral is fine too! Besides that, I like the place!
Excellent food, enough serving for one in whatever you order. Tried their pancakes & French toast & also omelette. Requested to avoid beans & bacon in both platters. They were kind to make omelettes without bacon & add cheese,capsicum & onions instead Instead of beans they provided nothing .. although requested for extra hash brown. The Tomato 🍅 noodles(Marconi's )soup was too delicious & filling Also loved the toasted bread coated with butter along with Jam & Peanut butter as slide lines packets. Initial it looked too crowded with long waiting time but the service was fast & in 5-7min we were seated. The dining table is too congested & got for only two but we four people had to accommodate. I guess it is the style that we see in Netflix "The River -dale"
Commander sous-marin Bravo 10 pouces. Reçu nos assiettes assez rapidement de la serveurse. Sous-marin a beaucoup de garnitures (steak, pepperoni, salade, etc) & très bon. Les pizza & les poutines ont l'air énormes aussi. Cela explique pourquoi le restaurant existe depuis longtemps & est toujours populaire. Près du métro Lionel-Groulx.
Was here with some buddies late after a concert in Montreal, has a good time & the food was great & the beer selection was decent as well. The staff were accommodating & I liked how it was open late & close to our Air BnB.
Great spot in St Henri, I always have breakfast here at least once while visiting Montreal. Love the old world feel to the place & the food is good & plenty. Service not the best but you get your food quickly & it's tasty.
Top notch for late late night food, but there's not a lot of competition. I wouldn't bring a guest. As a diner during the day, it's middling. The fries are inconsistent. I was trying to show someone a proper Quebec poutine & it was a fail, but I've had decent ones from here. That all sounds pretty negative. Let me end with: this is 1000x better than chains & if you want a steamy or classic diner fare you cannot go wrong.

The Popeye's chicken is the best grilled burger I've had in Montréal so far; the attention to detail, the onion rings, the thick cheese, the pickle--all making it perfection between the buns🙂 & the server named Cody is so nice. I will be trying it more often !
I'm giving 5 ⭐️review because I love how this diner looks inside. a I love how they haven't changed anything . It's oozing nostalgia & the lady who picked up the phone on August 1 at around 9 PM at night was sweet. Old-school places like this are very comforting I love this place. Food amazing
