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.

Review Summary

L'Estaminet is widely recognized as a charming and intimate neighborhood bistro that offers a warm, cozy atmosphere perfect for various social gatherings.

While experiences with menu events and specific dishes like the boudin, tartare, and brunch options are often praised for their flavor and presentation, feedback occasionally notes concerns regarding portion sizes or the seasoning of certain entrees. Despite some mixed impressions concerning culinary refinement and consistency in food preparation, the restaurant remains a well-regarded local destination where guests enjoy a relaxed dining environment and attentive, welcoming hospitality.

Good service & ambiance. My meal (duck confit salad) was pretty basic & could have used more seasoning

Super service! Mon amie est intolérente au lactose, la dame lui a offert du sorbet au lieu de son yogourt (au brunch) ce qui a fait son bonheur.
La nourriture est très bonne & l'ambiance seraine! Super endroit, j'y retourne!
