À propos
La Banquise, une petite crémerie à ses débuts, a vu le jour en mai 1968. Son fondateur, Pierre Barsalou, un pompier du quartier, transforma celle-ci en casse-croûte ouvert 24H dès l’automne 1968. On pouvait alors y déguster d’excellents hot-dogs et des frites succulentes. La poutine fit son apparition au début des années 80, avec la poutine classique et l’italienne. Devant le succès populaire, et à la demande répétée de plusieurs clients, les choix de poutines se multiplient. On compte maintenant pas moins de 25 poutines différentes. La Banquise est encore aujourd’hui une entreprise familiale. La fille cadette de M. Barsalou, Annie, a pris la relève dans les années 90, en compagnie de Marc Latendresse, son conjoint. Ils continuent ensemble de perpétuer la tradition de qualité et la renommée du Restaurant La Banquise. À l’été 2006, La Banquise fait d’importantes rénovations et agrandi considérablement sa salle à manger. Une quarantaine d’années plus tard, La Banquise est devenu bien plus qu’un simple casse-croûte ou une «place à poutine». Il s’agit également d’un endroit convivial et chaleureux où l’on peut déguster des bières de micro-brasserie, un menu du jour complet ainsi que d’excellents déjeuners. Merci beaucoup à notre fidèle clientèle, les oiseaux de nuit, les groupes d’amis, en passant par les travailleurs, les étudiants, les petites familles, etc... d’avoir façonné à votre image, l’histoire de La Banquise et d’en avoir fait le succès actuel.

First time trying poutine & we had to come here for it
Patrick
I don't know why this place is so good, but it is! We decided to go on a whim, & ended up waiting outside in -12 degrees for an hour & I don't regret a minute.
I generally don't enjoy poutine. I don't hate it, but it can be a bit soggy & gross. Their poutine made me a believer! The staff was friendly (& it was busy) & the food was just simply delicious.
For the record, they are taking credit card - so we didn't have to pay with debit or get cash out of an ATM. Although we were prepared to pay with debit.

Pedimos o Poutine clássico e um com carne e ambos estavam muito bons e muito bem servidos, além da cerveja muito boa também. a parte ruim fois a fila de quase uma hora no inverno.
Marjan
Good food, great service. Wanted to try Montreal poutine. The only reason it's a 4 star & not 5 is because the line up was very long & we were standing in the cold😭
Kathy
Great food 24/7 always busy & great atmosphere. Great selection of special poutine
Elizabeth
Absolute Montreal trip highlight 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Must go place. Amazing service..lovely vibe.. delicious food.
We ordered a meat poutine. It was next level yum... We could barely find the fries. Full-on meat. (5/5)
Maple cake (4/5) must try.
They are so kind. I overheard them guiding a guest how to use the parking metre in the street even in that busy time.

Classic, great diner atmosphere. Fun to go with friends, delicious poutine & fries. The peppercorn sauce is surprisingly amazing! Portions are huge. Parking was a pain. They only seat your group if everyone is present, but the turnover is steady so we didn't have to wait too long while we waited for one friend parking the car.

Emblème de Montréal pour leur poutine ! Il faut y aller sans hésiter !
Aira
There was a long line when we arrived, but it was 100% worth the wait. The poutine was loaded, crispy, & packed with flavor. Everything came out hot & fresh. I'd happily wait again!

Good food but it is very busy & very cramped. You will have to squeeze between tables to get through & unfortunately some people don't care to realize that it's not that hard to move your chair a bit so others can get by. The washrooms are a disgusting mess & should be cleaned more often, you will lose your appetite if you go in one of them. Other than that, the place is ok for a quick, tasty poutine.

Sadly, this place is overrated. I get it, it's a good late night snack poutine after a night out, especially knowing they are open late. But the taste is not the best. If it's your first poutine, & you want the best of the best experiment, I do not recommend. The staff & everything else is cool/good, but not worth for a poutine if you have other options.
Vic
Poutine. You either love it or you don't .
Regardless, you should have one at La Banquise. The best poutine I ate in Montreal. There are about 30 different combinations. Each has thoughtfully selected ingredients that blend in a gourmand way. The French fries are delicious, good size & well prepared. Extra ingredients & different sauces allow you to personalize the chosen poutine to your full satisfaction. Feel free to take inspiration from the main menu. The sizes, small & large, are very generous. Large poutine might be a challenge to finish. So if you are not sure take two small instead. You will enjoy it even more. The place is not too big but warm & cozy. Uniquely decorated, it gives you an impression of being outside in a nice sunny backyard under a tree around a beautiful table. It can get pretty busy in there but it's definitely worth the wait.

The best poutine ever. I used to come here regularly when I lived in Montreal. After four years away, I was back in the city for a visit & went straight to La Banquise. I ordered the La Reggae, & it was just as delicious as I remembered the same incredible taste I've known since I was a teenager. It was around 3 a.m., & honestly, Montrealers are truly blessed to have this place. Simply the best poutine
Alison
Je confirme que c'est l'adresse qu'il faut pour manger une des meilleures poutine de Montréal 🤤 J'ai tenté l'originalité avec La Royale & j'ai adoré ! Portion idéal 👌🏼
Kristi
The poutines we had were fantastic! We will absolutely be returning in the future.
NAOMI
I've heard so many great things, had to check it out for myself. Worth the trip!!! 10/10 best poutine I've had in awhile. Such large portions, finger licking good!!!

La meilleure poutine en ville, & l'une des meilleures dans toute la province ! Tout est bon sincèrement, leur burger est délicieux, leurs boissons maisons.
Habituellement quand il y a des poutine fest, les gens font des frites cheap & mettent juste du filling par dessus. Mais chez La Banquise, les frites sont délicieuses & c'est vraiment le secret pour une parfaite poutine !! Il y a aussi de la place en masse !!!
