Montreal Poutine consistently draws praise for hearty portions and a variety of poutines, especially smoked meat and fried chicken, with many guests finding the gravy and cheese curds satisfying and the portions generous. The Old Montreal courtyard setting and upbeat service contribute to a memorable vibe, though some visits note inconsistent speed and attentiveness, occasional missteps, and that water is not always offered, which affects value for some diners. Overall, the spot is regarded as a reliable choice for classic Montreal comfort food and a must-try for visitors, albeit with the caveats of tourist crowds, price, and variable service.
I ordered the poutine & hotdogs loaded. Amazing everything & the service was awesome Christmas eve dinner was so needed after midnight mass Notre Dame Basilica.
Cute place in old town for a heaping portion of poutine! The fried chicken was great - & could have fed two. Probably for tourists for than locals but very festive for Christmas time! Great service
We came here with a large group (16) they were very accommodating & set us up in the back room. The Montreal smoked meat poutine leaves nothing to be desired… mmmmm. The staff was very friendly & helpful. This is an upstairs restaurant with a narrow staircase to get up to it.
We were admiring the stone walls & our son asked how old the building was. They said over 200 years, so that is pretty special.
Excellent poutine, highly recommend ordering one. It's a bit on the expensive side compared to others, but the generous portion makes it worthwhile. My only comment is that this is the ONLY restaurant I went to in Quebec that does not give you free water (tap water) they only have water bottles, which I did not like.
This was our first experience with poutine & it did not disappoint! Everything was so delicious & we had plenty to share. Our server was friendly & gave us some great recommendations (the poutine with fried chicken was so good)! Highly recommend, will definitely come back on our next trip to Montreal!
We've been in Montreal for 3 days now & so far (coming from a tourist… not a local) this has been the best poutine so far. We had the smoked meat poutine with some cocktails. The atmosphere is cozy & the staff is nice with great views of the street below. Definitely stop in when in old Montreal.

best poutine around!!! I have had poutine plenty of times in my life & around montreal but this is by far the best. Price is pretty good & serving sizes are big. Thank you
Une des très bonne Pouts que j'ai eu la chance de goûter.
- La sauce style gravy délicieuse
- Les frites comme j'adore 🤤
- Le poulet frit débile!
- Le décor de fou!!!! Terrasse intérieure des plus magnifique 😍
-
Choix de bières un peu limité mais sommes toutes très bien.
Petits moins
- Fromage pas tant quick-quick
- Volume ambiant assez élevé
- Personnel (super souriant) mais clairement pas assez nombreux. Aucun refill d'eau & bières, tables collantes & incomplète (nous avons dû attendre avant de manger car bous n'avions pas de coutelleries) + factures très longues à recevoir.
Des mauvaises journée ca arrive.
À revisiter parce que je rêve d'une poutine comme la leurs.
