About us

THE HISTORY OF LA BINERIE MONT-ROYAL June 11th, 1938 Joachim Lussier is the founder and first owner of La Binerie MONT-ROYAL. Assisted by his brother Leo, he decided that the traditional Quebec cuisine and family spirit are the pillars of the establishment. During the first 60 years, several members of their families worked at the restaurant and left their contributions and memories with the customers. La Binerie Mont-Royal has become a culinary institution in Quebec, which is proud to offer authentic Quebec cuisine to all those who want to remember the good experiences of family meals. Memorable experiences are created for all new customers! July 13th, 1966 Leo buys his brother's restaurant. In October of the same year, he hired a "new kid", a waiter, Fernand Groulx rapidly integrating with the Lussier family. In October 1969, Fernand weds Claire, Leo’s eldest daughter. So when Leo decided to retire - he knew that there was someone to take his place! August 4th, 1978, after 40 years of service, Leo sells La Binerie Mont-Royal to Fernand and Claire. The two work together for over 30 years! March 10th, 2001, the secret recipes of La Binerie Mont-Royal are given to a trio of restaurants in Quebec which brought some physical improvements to the restaurant. In March 2002, the torch of Quebec cuisine was purchased and continued by Suzanne Touchette and Bernard Deschamps. November 17th, 2005, Jocelyne and Philippe Brunet became the happy recipients of La Binerie Mont-Royal. They were looking for several months for a restaurant that offered food and special experience, which also had development potential. In hopes of making a cozier restaurant, the bar and the tables are now solid maple and walls are covered with pictures of our family traditions from the great Quebec illustrator Joseph-Edmond Massicotte. Several improvements in the menu were made and continue to be, so that the dishes offered can live up to the required quality, while respecting the authenticity of the Quebec cuisine! They like to offer their loyal customers and the many visitors from other countries, the pleasure of enjoying traditional dishes, making sure they leave with a good memory! Eating at La Binerie Mount Royal... is putting Quebec on your plate! At the La Binerie, you will feel at home!

Review Summary

La Binerie Mont Royal emerges in many reviews as a warm, nostalgic staple offering honest, comforting Quebecois cooking with generous portions and homemade quality. The menu centers on traditional favorites like fèves au lard, tourtière, pea soup, poutines, and crepes, all prepared on site and served in a bright, old Quebec decor that feels like a tiny museum of Montreal history. The atmosphere is described as welcoming, friendly, and family like, with attentive service and explanations of the dishes that make guests feel at home. The beans are repeatedly hailed as the star, richly flavorful and tender, while other classics such as shepherd's pie, boudin, and meat pies are praised for comforting textures and hearty portions that satisfy. The experience is often framed as an authentic, affordable, and memorable introduction to Quebec cuisine, with many visitors planning a return to sample more of the house made specialties and to soak up the ambiance.

How can a meal transport you back home? Ask this amazing man, who will diligently introduce you to every dish. Every bite feels like being at a family dining table, even if you're from abroad. We had the Traditional Québec Meal, but do not skip the black sausages.

As soon as I arrived I was served quickly & received perfect manners. I ordered the typical menu & I have to say that everything was very good, & I was surprised by both the quantity & the quality. Also, the waiter, who came from outside, took the trouble to explain to me the most traditional dishes & how they were eaten.

Going to the newest, flashiest restaurant in town is always fun, but discovering a long-established place for the first time is just as exciting. This was the case with here for us. Serving authentic, traditional Québécois cuisine since 1938, they have all the classics: poutine, shepherd's pie, pea soup, tourtière, pouding chômeur, & more. But the comfort food items don't stop there; they serve breakfast all day, & all their alcohol is locally made here in Quebec. The menu is just too vast to get a good sense of it in one go. We will have to return for more, but our initial impression was positive.

Great place to visit when in Montreal. This family-owned institution is all about making traditional Québécois comfort food. My go-to order is #9 (the black sausage combo). Their black sausage is great! I also get a piece of their tourtière as a side too. Their tourtière (Québécois meat pie) is amazing: well-seasoned, no salty aftertaste. My only complaint is that the beans cooked in lard can sometimes be too salty. But I love those beans, they are not the sweet baked beans people usually think of. Good thing is that they open until 9pm in the weekend, so I can visit them when I am hungover. My wife loves it so much that we had our wedding anniversary dinner there!

Amazing how this restaurant is a hidden gem on the Plateau since I have lived 20+ years in Montreal & never heard of it before. This is a family restaurant with many different types of food that will please you. We went with the traditional Quebec platter & you won't be hungry for the rest of the day. Service is five stars & we will be back for other culinary specialties Highly recommended & much better than any other restaurant chain that claims they serve authentic Quebec cuisine. This is the real deal

So glad we stumbled upon this glorious "greasy spoon." The one egg one crepe plate was PERFECTION! The kids got the crepe with chocolate & bananas - they easily could have shared & ended up preferring our traditional dishes. My husband got the traditional Québécois lunch plate - pea soup, meat pie, meatballs & mashed potatoes. Fantastique! 10 out of 10 would come back.
