Greenspot emerges in reviews as a Montreal institution and a classic diner with a retro vibe, where hearty comfort food, generous portions, and reasonable prices draw locals and visitors alike. The menu consistently features poutine, smoked meat, burgers, steaks, clubs, and all day breakfasts, with many praising the poutines as among the best in town and the smoked meat as tender and flavorful. Breakfast highlights include eggs Benedict twists and big plates of breakfast staples, while longtime diners enjoy the familiar, no frills service, fast and friendly when busy. The atmosphere is described as nostalgic, cozy, and unpretentious, though the space can be noisy and booths may feel cramped, and a few reviews note slow service or variability during peak times and occasional inconsistencies in taste. Still, Greenspot is repeatedly praised for its approachable price point, consistent comfort food, and the sense of stepping back in time, making it a dependable go-to for satisfying meals that hit the spot and satisfy cravings for a classic diner experience.
Tried Green Spot for lunch The interior is cute, vintage vibes. We tried many items & everything was delicious. The poutine is to die for. Im so in love with their smoked meat sandwich. Full of flavors! They use high quality ingredients. Very Friendly staff ! affordable prices! Follow @ayahayek_ for more on instagram
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.

Wow 🤩 This place is amazing, everything is just perfect. The food is so tasty & the portions is kinda big & worth it. The staff is super friendly like everyone we met was nice & welcoming. The menus is French & English so that's perfect. I really loved the vintage vibes that they kept it from the 40s from the decors do the receipt 🤩❤️ This is the first time coming, but I ordered an UberEats before but dine in is much more better. Definitely recommend & will be in my favourite spots 😍
Super "diner" de quartier, accueil toujours rapide & efficace. Beaucoup de choix de bonnes poutines ,des burgers ,des chiens-chauds ou des pâtes. Ambiance de casse-croûte a l'ancienne & c'est ça qui plaît, de l'authenticité, du bon des prix corrects. Ne changez rien & on revient encore & encore !!!! De bonnes calories pour repartir en balade, au boulot ou à la sieste pour les plus courageux ! . Le souper vous fera passer une bonne nuit heureuse , n'hésitez plus !!
Food was pretty good, & i like that this place has a distinctive vibe. However, table placement could use some improvement. It was a noisy night, & it was difficult to have a conversation bc I kept overhearing people right next to our table.
Bon restaurant de quartier qui existe depuis très longtemps. Le week-end beaucoup de gens. Malgré les changements majeurs dans ce quartier. Il a gardé l'esprit du temps. Frite, poutine & hot dog c'est la place !
We went during a very busy time & so of course the service & atmosphere were not top tier but the food was absolutely delicious & so we definitely recommend it.
There's a lot of people wondering who makes the best poutine. GREEN SPOT! I always bring my friends who visit Montreal to this landmark for the poutine & it never fails to impress. What are you waiting for? GO NOW!!!!
Un vrai diner comme on l'imagine ! L'ambiance diner des films & séries américaine est plus que présente, les jukebox (non fonctionnels) sur chaque table ajoute une touche immersive appréciée ! La nourriture est très bonne, le rapport qualité prix est excellent. Les hot-dogs dans le style new-yorkais ne déçoivent pas, les poutines restent classiques mais très bien préparées, & les burgers sont originaux & succulents. Je n'ai pas (encore) eu la chance de goûter leurs sous-marins & pizzas. Service chaleureux & rapide
