Greenspot est perçu comme une institution montréalaise au charme rétro, offrant une cuisine réconfortante de type casse croûte avec poutines généreuses, smoked meat et burgers, et des brunchs copieux à prix raisonnables. L'ambiance nostalgique et le service rapide et sympathique font partie du charme, même si le service peut être inégal et certains plats peuvent manquer de finesse ou de fraîcheur; l'absence de réservation et le bruit parfois élevé sont aussi mentionnés. La clientèle est fidèle et l'endroit est apprécié pour son accessibilité et son côté convivial, faisant de Greenspot une expérience authentique et abordable du diner classique où l'on retrouve les classiques de Montréal.
Upon tried this resto after friend referred me, was greatly disappointed that my 14" Steak on Steak sous-marin was mainly all salad & tomatoes; where was the beef & cheese? Certainly not worth $18.xx plus tax.
This is a great spot for a quick dine in ! The staff is friendly, the service is quick, & the prices are very reasonable. I always get the steak & fries, the salads & desserts are also very good ! It has a cute retro vibe, it feels like your transported to a different time, right here in the city !

The driest Italian poutine I have ever tasted. The sauce was so dry that it could not penetrate the fries or cheese. Basically very poor quality & taste.
I went to Greenspot last week for lunch. The place wasn't too crowded, the service was fast even tho a waiter forgot about me once & the plate was huge. I ordered the club sandwich which came with a LOT of fries, a cup of gravy, a nice portion of coleslaw along with a slice of pickle & marinated red pepper. The club sandwich was big, had lots of chicken, tomatoes, good lettuce & crispy bacon. My only complaint about the dish is that there wasn't enough mayo in the cup they gave me for the whole thing so at the end I was dipping the sandwich in the gravy. Oh & the meal came with a good chicken & noodles soup along with a coffee & dessert. I didn't have the dessert because I was very full after the soup & the meal. A first good experience.
Super cool & old-school, I would say this is the best poutine in Montreal. I highly recommend the St. Henry Witch, which comes with pieces of steak. One important thing that caught my eye is that their fries are not soggy & are real fries, not the pre-made ones.
Greenspot in Montreal is a fantastic dining destination that I highly recommend for both locals & tourists looking to indulge in delicious Quebec delicacies. I've visited multiple times, & my latest outing was a memorable family gathering with my parents & siblings. The menu is extensive, featuring a wide variety of poutines, beers, & other diner classics that showcase the best of Quebec's culinary offerings. One of the standout aspects of Greenspot is its inviting atmosphere. The restaurant has maintained its charm over the years, creating a welcoming space where families & friends can come together to enjoy hearty meals. Whether you're a poutine aficionado or just looking for a satisfying meal, you'll find something to delight your taste buds. The staff is friendly & attentive, ensuring that your dining experience is enjoyable from start to finish. The vibrant atmosphere makes it a great spot to relax, catch up with friends, or celebrate special occasions. Overall, Greenspot is a must-visit for anyone craving greasy comfort food in a cozy setting. Don't miss out on this Montreal gem that perfectly captures the essence of Quebec's culinary scene!

Great old school Americana atmosphere. Friendly people. Quick, efficient service. The only thing they could do to improve... serve le vrai maple syrup.
Stumbled upon this place by accident after a show, the diner is super cute & very chill. The food is good (bussin even) & very fairly priced!! The staff was friendly even tho it was midnight. My new favorite after hours spot!!
Oh yeaah so this review might not help much lol but eh if yall are craving pizza & a damn heavy cheesy cheese pizza or pepperoni or even a meat lover this is yo spot after a night of heavy partying or evening strolling through the city & your tummy looking to be full, this is the right spot. Of course, they not only have pizza, but definitely other items are on the menu. Burgers with fries, sandwiches, shakes, breakfast. It's all there. Hit them up for a morning or lunch or dinner dine in.

Poutine: -fries 3/5 -cheese 5/5 -sauce 4/5 More sauce would be a bit beneficial too compensate with the fries but other than that thats a more than decent classic cantine poutine
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.
A trip in the past with the same food & atmosphere. Basic,no frills, authentic & well done food. The waitresses are professionals & enjoy what they are doing. Family , friendly feel with several regular customers. From the traditional egg & bacon to the poutine, steak & fish & chips. Opened most of the day. I love this place. Their breakfast potatoes, bacon are perfectly cooked. One of my favorite spot in Montreal.

This is one of the best diners in the province, never mind just in Montréal. The busy, noisy ambience is perfectly unpretentious & I feel the warmth of community every time I go in there. The food is always delicious & there's sure to be something on the menu for everyone. Prices have remained reasonable even with inflation out of control, & the staff can be counted on for quick, friendly service.
Caveat, we generally are not really into fast food, but we do like a good pastrami sandwich & wanted to try poutine, & love historic vintage places, so we decided to give Greenspot a try. The smoked meat sandwich & poutine were the best things we tried. I liked the squeaky cheese & the style of fries, both crispy & soft at the same time, but the gravy was a bit too salty. The smoked meat sandwich was stuffed with meat, like at Katz's Deli in New York & tasted great. The pizza which my son had oddly had the pepperoni under the cheese (maybe this is a Canadian thing). He enjoyed it. My daughter & husband shared a lasagna, but we were shocked to receive a massive family size portion with the lunch menu. But it was not great... There were dry inedible pasta edges, & parts where the pasta doesn't have sauce in between & it's just layers of cooked pasta stuck together. There were also a lot of whole cloves in the sauce for some reason, & my daughter hurt her tooth biting one. The minestrone soup that came with the lasagna was just average diner soup, possibly canned soup heated up. Overall, the meal was heavy & what you'd expect of an average diner. Not great but not awful. Also the lunch special was supposed to come with coffee & a dessert, which would have been way too much food, considering the massive portions, but I did notice that the waitress didn't bring it up & ask if we wanted it. On the plus side, it's cool to eat in a vintage diner, & I wish we had a coin to try the jukebox at the table. We didn't find out if they worked or not.
