Review Summary

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.

I loooove this place & have been here many times. The food is always spot on (it’s a classic greasy spoon, so good comfort food) & the atmosphere is endearingly nostalgic (chalkboard menu, pickled vegetables in mason jars, jukebox). HOWEVER, I’m giving this 3 stars today, September 3, because the cashier overcharged us. The receipt from the waitress had the total at 36$, the cashier put 42$, & with the 15% tip (which the waitress, Jacky, deserved) it came to 48$ — a good 12$ difference!!! This has never happened in all the times we’ve been to the Greenspot (again, love this place) but today definitely tainted the experience. I don’t think we’ll be back for a while 😞

ETA: I just read the other recent reviews & apparently this isn’t an isolated incident. The cashier is the short young girl with very curly hair in double buns. She needs disciplinary consequences to her actions — she is cheating your customers!!!

Super classic place serving super classic Montreal specialties. Some of the poutine was very salty in a not pleasant way but others were tasty. You sort of get what you expect, nothing more & nothing less

La poutine s'est démarqué du reste (8/10) Le burger Popeye est bon (7/10) Le sandwich smoked meat est bien (7/10) Prix raisonable , beaucoup de choix sur le menu Bien occupé , gros volume de clients versus le volume de serveuse donc être patient dans les heures de pointes

Leur smoked meat est fade, sec & manque sérieusement d'épices. De plus, j'ai trouvé que leur sandwich est plutôt petit. Il est évident que le monde qui aime le smoked meat chez Greenspot n'a jamais été chez Schwartz's pour goûter l'authentique. Mais bon! Il n'y a peut-être rien de mieux à proximité du Greenspot... pis le monde doit s'en contenter.

Service rapide... mais les assiettes m'ont été un peu trop garochées sur la table. Pas très professionnel !

Une première visite à ce resto pour un dîner tardif. Service rapide & courtois. J'ai commandé une petite poutine & un hot dog. Je n'ai rien à dire de négatif pour le hot dog mais pour la poutine c'est complètement différent. Dès que j'ai reçu ma poutine j'ai remarqué la couleur du fromage en grain & le doute s'est installé. Le fromage était jauni,sec, pâteux & de très mauvais gout. J'ai retourné ma poutine sans problème mais malheureusement la deuxième n'était pas mieux le fromage n'était pas mieux & de plus la sauce était froide. Les frites sont super!

Malheureusement je ne compte pas retourner pour une deuxième expérience.

La caissière nous a servi avec un petit sourire douteux ...
