Nickels Deli & Bar Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
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.

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 ✨💫

Came all the way from downtown because I grew up in VSL & wanted to go to Nickels. Used to go almost every weekend in my childhood. Today November 5, 2022, arrived & requested a booth. There was two booths empty but not cleaned & the waitress told me that she needed 5min to prepare the booth table for us. I told her no problem, I will wait. Then, 2 guys showed up & she immediately cleaned one booth table for them & gave it to them. I found that disrespectful & we left. It's a shame that she did that but for whoever it happens to them luckily there's a restaurant in the same strip called L'oeufrier. People are nice, respectful & the food is great.

The food is superb & the service is even better. We regularly have Lotfi as our waiter & he is INCRECIBLE - FRIENDLY HELPFUL & INFORMATIVE. He makes our regular visits an absolute pleasure. His female associate is also very friendly & full of smiles. Sorry that I don't know her name

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.

The place was completely empty yet the waitress was very slow (dragging her feet) & we had to ask her twice for water. & the food was bland & cold.... why?

Est-ce que c'est seulement le Nickels de Saint-Laurent qui est mauvais ou la qualité de Nickels baisse depuis quelques années? La nourriture n'était pas à la hauteur de mes attentes, trop fade, & le service, correct mais sans plus.

The girls on the floor always have a smile & a coffee refill close at hand.
