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.

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.

One of the best québécois restaurant for breakfast . All the poutine sauce is made from Beef/Chicken.

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 !

Les frites gagneraient à être cuites plus longtemps. Par contre, le personnel donne un service honnête.

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

Aucun sourire. Poutine immonde. Seul le look rétro vaut le détour.
