Review Summary

Montreal Pool Room is described as a nostalgic Montreal staple where steamies, poutine, and burgers star in a simple, flavorful lineup with gravy-rich sauces and crispy fries. The atmosphere is divey and charming, with walls proudly showing the restaurant's history, and the service is consistently fast and friendly, with prices considered fair and payment sometimes noted as cash only. Overall, reviews converge on an authentic, old-school experience that delivers comforting, satisfying fare, though a few mention occasional inconsistency.

Awesome counter restaurant for delicious, authentic steamies (hotdogs), poutine, fries, etc., in a historic restaurant, in a historic part of town. Highly recommended for tourists & locals alike.

Montreal Pool Room: A Legendary Experience My visit to the Pool Room was an unforgettable one. The poutine was the best I've ever had, the fries were perfectly crispy, the gravy was like nothing I've tasted before - authentic & delicious. Their all-dressed steamy hotdogs were like a hug from within, with perfectly buttered buns & fresh garnishes. Family ran & operated, The restaurant's history is impressive - it's been around for over a hundred years! I can't wait to go back for more poutine🍁

The poutine was awesome & so were the delish hot dogs. It's a landmark that's been there for close to if not over 100 years, so it's clear that the food has stood the test of time. If you reminisce about the Old Montréal taste of poutine & steamed hotdogs, then that's the place to be.

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!
