About

L’estaminet is the perfect place to enjoy a light gourmet meal without putting a dent in your wallet. Located on Fleury Street in the increasingly popular Ahuntsic district, this unpretentious bistro continues to earn the praise of all those who dine here. Established in 1985, L’estaminet offers a pan-European menu that includes a selection of favourites inspired by French, Italian, German and Belgian cuisine.

An eclectic clientele demands an equally eclectic menu. With patrons from the neighbourhood and from all over the island of Montreal, L’estaminet provides top quality bistro fare that includes a selection of burgers, tempting personal pizzas, the ever-popular croques (including monsieur, smoked salmon, ham and asparagus), sandwiches, salad, pasta and an ever changing table d’hôte that expands on the standard menu. Breakfast is served daily and the extensive weekend brunch menu has such a variety of choices that making your final selection may take some time.

Like any bistro worthy of the name, L’estaminet offers a selection of coffees and espresso-based drinks (hot and iced). A wide array of herbal and other teas is available for your pleasure, too. Wine and beer are also on the menu, with St-Ambroise, Boréale and Stella Artois on tap. And if indulging your sweet tooth is more your thing (or if you want to cap a perfect meal), the dessert menu at L’estaminet features sinfully delicious pies, sorbets and cakes, including a different new featured cake every month.

J'ai adoré mon souper ainsi que le service, très courtois & sympathique. Cependant, même si je comprends la raison, je n'ai pas aimé me sentir "obligé " de quitter le resto vers 19h30 alors qu'il y avait un file à l'extérieur pour prendre notre place & les serveurs, malgré leur politesse, nous faisait comprendre que notre temps était fini

Beaucoup apprécié qu'il y ait du pain sans gluten, ce qui m'a permis de manger un grilled cheese :). La jeune femme qui nous servait a été parfaite.

Musique trop bruyante & énervante, surtout à 10:00 le matin pour déjeuner quand la salle est pratiquement vide. ON est pas dans une discothèque ! La pauvre serveuse n'a pas l'autorisation de baisser le son... Donc on ne tient pas compte du bien-être des clients pour une raison ... je ne peux même pas imaginer pour quelle raison.
