AmericanGrillDeliBreakfastSmoked MeatBrunchResto-Bar
"Souper au Nickels, c’est un souper en famille. Nos produits offrent une qualité fraîche et bien de chez nous : burgers et steaks Certified Angus Beef, patates de pommes de terre rouges du Québec et la meilleure viande fumée de Montréal. Nos fameux desserts en valent le détour : gâteau au fromage, gâteau au chocolat Céline, banana split, laits frappés, sans oublier nos fameux sundaes. Ici, le Burger & Shake a commencé et c’est ici qu’il continue à faire sa marque. La mixologie fait son entrée chez Nickels avec une ambiance de bar repensée et tendance : cocktails, vins, spiritueux et nos sélections de bières bien de chez nous. Les québécois plantent leurs fourchettes chez nous depuis 1990."

Review Summary

Nickels Deli & Bar gets mixed marks: many reviews praise good food and reasonable prices, and several visits note fast or attentive service and a generally enjoyable experience, but there are recurring concerns about service quality and preparation. Some guests report a major fruit fly problem, a dirty coffee cup, and longer than expected service times that dull the overall experience. Cooking accuracy also varies, with some meat not cooked to the requested doneness and a few missteps with smoked meat orders, including bread and topping issues that make sandwiches hard to hold together. Portion sizes were reportedly reduced in May. On the positive side, smoked meat and other dishes are described as very good, and the overall value and atmosphere are cited as strengths, suggesting Nickels Deli & Bar remains a reliable option despite sporadic inconsistencies.

Took my wife & mother in law for dinner at the St. Laurent restaurant. Their smoked meat sandwiches were good except the top slice of rye bread on both sandwiches was 1 inch wide versus the normal sized rye bread. Had to flag down the waitress to get more rye bread so they couldhold the meat in the sandwich.

After ordering a draft beer for myself the waitress came back & said that they only had 2 drafts neither of whichi wanted, so i ordered a bottle instead. I ordered a rueben smoked meat which was supposed to have sauerkraut & Russian dressing. It came with fried onions & brown gravy instead. Really disappointing.

Will be going somewhere else for smoked meat from now on.

I had to have a Montreal Smoked meat sandwich while I was in Montreal for the weekend. I had the Ruben on a pretzel bun & was not disappointed in the least! Best I've ever had! Took a little longer than I was expecting because it wasn't busy, but it was well worth the wait! The fries, coleslaw & pickle were all delicious as well. Friendly service & clean place. Will definitely go again next time I am in the area ✨💫

OMG what a bad restaurant. I ordered a hamburger with the fries & slaw. The wait of over 35 minutes was explained by the waitress: "you know nothing is frozen here... lol... no wonder it was soooo dry & burned & cold!
The coke was flat, the bun was cold, burned meat & cheese I did not ask for.
The waitress is always full of excuses. My mother in law liked her smoked meat.
There must have been 10 persons in all & the waitress was overwhelmed.
Would not eat there even for free
Service is slow amd annoying with excuses.
Save your bucks.
