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.
Moi & ma blonde on a été manger en fin de semaine & s'était délicieux repas copieux & chaleureux bien présentés la place est super jolie & bien situé ça nous a coûté 50 à 2 avec un repas soupe plat principal dessert plus un autre repas 50 dollars pour tout ça c'est pas cher je recommande fortement
I come here because it's the best & most affordable poutine in my area. I wouldn't come out of my way for this, but if you're in the area & need a greasy spoon fix, this is the place to go to in this area. It still has the old diner feel to it, right down to the staff. Do not get the small portion of poutine, it's the size of a coleslaw. Better off getting a large & sharing it with others at the table.
I've been here for breakfast food & it was quite good, but in the night time the food is often just not good. The fries are clearly defrosted costco fries, the gravy is from powder. If they would at least make their own fries that would go a long way to making the whole restaurant a lot better given that half the menu is literally based around French fries.
Good food for reasonable prices & big portions
I personally like their all dressed pizza with extra mushrooms. From the small I was able to eat half. The other half took it away for my lunch tomorrow.
The overall experience was amazing!
Jacky is by far one of the most amazing service people I have ever encountered. Thank you for an amazing breakfast experience!

Terrible handling of ingredients, concerns of cleanliness. They mess up the orders every time. The ingredients are old & stale. Worst fast food in Montreal without a doubt
There was some confusion with the outdoor menu, that's just for take out, if you want to dine in, you will receive a more extended menu, but the 76 anniversary combos are just for take out. The potatoes fries were a little bit greasy, it had a resemblance to five guy's french fries & I thought the combo burger was a cheeseburger, but the meat was very good.
