Review Summary

Overall impressions of Nickels Deli & Bar are mixed, with some diners praising the retro, family friendly vibe, open and comfortable interior, and comforting staple dishes like smoked meat and classic poutines, while others note strong nostalgia and good value alongside occasional slow service and uneven attention from staff. Several visits are described as enjoyable for atmosphere and flavor, including fast service and tasty desserts, though a few encounters mention rude or unfriendly treatment and mistakes with orders or billing. Hygiene concerns were raised by at least one party after spotting mice, and there was mention of a technical issue affecting gift cards, plus conflicting guidance on tipping. A common thread is that portions tend to be generous and the ambiance is a highlight, but consistency in service and kitchen timing, plus better upkeep, would elevate the experience and reduce disappointment for future visits.

One of the last few places where I feel you get your money's worth. It's not fancy, but the decor is fun & nostalgic, & the portion is big

This restaurant has got neat decor & the food is perfectly fine. I had the smoked meat spaghetti & a few beers, & it was pretty good I won't lie. The kitchen was kind of slow to bring out the food though. But anyways I've eaten here a few times & have found it to be a dependable spot that won't blow your mind but won't break your wallet either.
Alaric sorta recommends ☝?

Woooow! Ça doit faire presque quarante ans que je ne suis pas entré dans un Nickels, dans le temps où René Angélil & Céline Dion ont fondé la bannière! &, de ce dont je me souviens, le menu a vraiment changé, même si la viande fumée est encore à l'honneur. Le décor.. ouf.. si vous aimez le vintage, vous en aurez plein la vue!

J'ai commandé un burger Marilyn (je pense). La cuisson de la viande était correcte, mais le fromage n'était pas fondu, il était juste posé sur la viande. Un peu bizarre. Les frites n'étaient pas chaudes. La décoration du restaurant pourrait être cool, mais bizarrement, elle ne l'est pas, elle a mal vieilli. La serveuse était gentille. De façon générale, j'ai trouvé ce restaurant bof

21$ (avec tip) pour une poutine régulière extra fromage. Très très salée, fromage pas du tout frais, & ça paraissait pas que c'était une extra. Les frites étaient bonnes par contre, & le service correct, juste un peu lent. Le décor n'a pas changé depuis l'ouverture j'en suis presque certain. Cadres jaunis, cuirette partout, que des personnes âgées. C'est ce à quoi je m'attendais par contre. J'étais juste vraiment déçu de ma poutine, à ce prix là en plus.

Très bonnes portions, bonne cuisine, le service est vraiment agréable la décoration aussi, quand je suis sorti j'avais plus faim. 50$ par personne avec pichet de sangria, dessert & café.

The brunch here is one of my favourites--lots of classic options (including healthy ones!). The service is always super prompt & attentive. This place has a kitsch retro decor, which isn't to my taste, but I still love it because the ambience is warm, thoughtful, & friendly.
