Montreal Poutine shows up in reviews as a strong, comfort-focused destination in Old Montreal, offering huge portions of poutine in a warm, rustic setting with a courtyard vibe and stone walls that many describe as charming. The menu items such as smoked meat poutine and fried chicken poutine are consistently praised for rich gravy, squeaky cheese curds, and fries that stay crisp; portions are often ample enough to share and are considered good value for the price. The atmosphere and service receive frequent compliments, with friendly, attentive staff and a lively ambiance noted, though some visits mention slower service, busy crowds, or occasional missteps like a spill or delays. A recurring practical note is that tap water is not provided and bottled water is the default option, which some guests find disappointing on top of higher prices. Despite occasional drawbacks, most reviews emphasize a positive experience, with many saying the experience is memorable and that Montreal Poutine remains a go-to spot for authentic Quebec comfort food in a historic, courtyard setting.
Ok experience, no more. There's a terrace to enjoy food outside however we weren't able to enjoy it because the staff didn't agree to move tables together for a group of 5. We ate inside on the 2nd floor & it was ok to move the tables together over there. The service was slow. They have a few poutines available & I was pleasantly surprised by the fried chicken one. Unfortunately, they do not offer glasses of water. They offer bottles of water for 4$ & I refuse to support the bottles water economy where potable/drinking water is available. The bathroom weren't gross but they would've benefited from cleaning & emptying the bins. It felt like they were understaffed even though it wasn't particularly busy. I was glad that there was no line up for a place in a tourist area.

Nice little spot but lacking service. Party of 3, we ordered drinks & a poutine. Our poutine arrived before our drinks. After 20 mins we had finish our poutine & still no drinks. I asked the waitress if perhaps they forgot, but she said drinks were coming, so i ordered another poutine. Food arrived quickly but still no drinks. Finally, just before we finished our food our drinks arrived. Food is not bad, the patio is very nice & cozy. Not my favorite.
The Poutine gravy is good, but the fries are little bit over cook, you can taste bitter, quite disappointed because they label themselves first in poutine. Hot dog is normal, not bad!! Service are good, environment is classic!! There is a very funny thing is the air conditioning system hanging on the second floor wall outside keep making very noisy sound & shaking like going to drop down immediately, hahaha.
Parfait ! De passage à Montréal avec mon amie nous nous sommes arrêtés ici & nous n'avons pas été déçus. Service au top, poutine super bonne, l'ambiance était vraiment bien aussi, nous avons eu de la chance d'avoir beau temps & avons donc pu déjeuner à l'extérieur. Bref, je recommande vivement, merci beaucoup pour ce bon moment !

i liked the poutine i had, however i think it's very innapropriate that they make us buy bottled water & refuse to serve tap water. the waiters were all really nice, & i liked the atmosphere!
Offrir de l'eau à volonté ne serait pas du luxe. Ce devrai être obligatoire. Poutine portion généreuse. Qualite acceptable pour la poutine saucisse à hot dog
La bouffe malheureusement est pas si bonne, même pas bon. Les patates goûte rien la sauce non plus. Très fade comme bouffe!! Je ne recommande pas. En plus fait payer pour de l'eau. Oui.oui payer pour de l'eau. A voir le restaurant, il doivent remplir eau même les bouteille d'eau du robinet pour les revendre ! Je mange de la poutine depuis 56 ans & celle là c'était la pire!!! C'est un attrape touristique, le beau nom du restaurant, l'emplacement, mais je vous le dit c'est un NON NON.

By sheer coincidence, we stumbled upon this poutine restaurant (which also serves alcohol). While wandering in Old Montreal, we decided to take a break here. We ordered two beers & a poutine to share, & it was absolutely delicious! The fries, coated in gravy, remained crispy, & combined with the cheese curds, it was divine. The service was also excellent; everyone was prompt & friendly. I believe they deserve even higher praise for their food & service. However, the beer prices might be a tad high, but still manageable. I'll definitely come back next time I'm in Montreal.
Was definitely the best poutine I've ever had the best in Montreal I can't say because I only went here during my stay but it is definitely a contender. Portions were satisfying & filling & the flavors were delicious.
Estávamos procurando um local para comer poutine em Montreal. Por recomendaçao, fomos ao local. O Poutine nao estava ruim mas também nao estava maravilhoso. Serviço fois regular, pedimos tap water (algo comum em Toronto) e a garçonete nos trouxe 3 garrafinhas de água mineral e nos cobrou 4 dólares cada. Ambiente era agradável mas sem acessibilidade ♿️ e os funcionários insistiam pra gente entrar rápido no restaurante e fechar a porta para nao esfriar o ambiente. Achei chato isso.
