No pool tables, but damn good hot dogs!
Cash only - they'll take U.S. dollars at a 1:1 exchange rate, so you're better off paying in Canadian.
The menu is simple & classic: choose between cucumber relish, mustard, or sauerkraut. Ketchup? It's self-serve on the counter once you get your order.
But the real surprise? The buns - soft, chewy, & perfectly steamed - they might be even better than the dogs themselves. A no-frills gem that delivers exactly what it promises.View more

A classic Montreal joint. Cash only. No pool somehow.View more

One of the few remaining really authentic places left in Montreal. I like their steamies. I don't often like fries, but I like theirs. I love sitting in that one seat at the front window & watching the world go by on St Laurent. Cash only!View more

Exiting Places Des Arts, the La Belle Province on St Catherine is quicker found & has similar food. So the crowds tend to go there, including myself for some time. I'm glad I altered the routine to check out Montreal Pool Room though because this place is a fast food gem. Great place for a taste of traditional Montreal greasy grub. Open late for convenience after a night of partying downtown. Although it is cash only on the inconvenient side. Service is wonderful as well. The walls are adorned with some neat maps & posters going back many years. You can actually learn a neat bit about local history from the hangings on the wall. Happy to support this historic Montreal business.View more

Première fois dans cet établissement qui n'a plus besoin d'annonce! Je ne sais pas avec quelle huile ils font les frites, mais elles dont différentes de partout ailleurs. Elles ne sont pas grasse, & elles sont croustillantes. Ils n'acceptent que du CASH.View more

If you like italian poutine...this is the spot, their meat sauce is just perfect. Not a fan of the cash only policy though...but great fries, generous portion of cheese. If you need a late night dirty snack, its going to deliveView more

The poutine is worth it all!! It's a hole in the wall in a colorful (seedyish, former red light area) part of Montreal, but the poutine is all that! Perfect fries, melty cheese curds, great gravy. The hotdogs are just plain dogs, but the steamed buns were delicious & the slaw on top rounded it all out. Yes, I was sober as a church mouse. (This place is a popular late night spot. ) It is cash only. They've been in business for over a hundred years & I'm sure it's because of the poutine. It's a dive, & there are no pool tables. It's just a great experience!View more

Perfect spot for late night eats. Love to support a historical business that's been in business for 100+ years. No fuss interior slinging classic steamies & fries. Delicious dogs & fries. Cash only so make sure to have some handy.View more

The hot dog was great. Ask them to put everything on it. You won't regret it (unless you have allergies of course). The food isn't the only thing special about the place though. Walking in, you'll quickly realize this location is a neighborhood fixture. They have all kinds of people coming in that look like they just got off of work or are in the midst of a night on the town. You can tell many of these people are regulars based on the rapport they have with the staff. Then there's the pictures on the wall. Photos that show the kind of pride they have in their business. I only had one meal there but if I lived in Montreal, I'd like to count myself as a regular. Oh & it's cash only, but they have an ATM.View more
