Paul Patates est perçu comme un casse-croûte rétro où les patates et les hot dogs vapeur côtoient une poutine généreuse et une bière d'épinette artisanale; l'ambiance nostalgique, le décor simple et le service rapide renforcent le charme convivial. Les portions généreuses et les staples comme le hamburger et le hot dog sont appréciés, mais les frites peuvent varier en qualité, parfois trop brunies ou manquant de croustillant selon les avis. La poutine est largement louée pour sa sauce onctueuse et son fromage frais, certains saluant même une des meilleures poutines du quartier, avec une allusion positive à l'option sans gluten. La bière d'épinette est un atout récurrent, bien que certains aient été surpris par sa nature, et il est souvent conseillé d'arriver en avance car les heures d'ouverture peuvent être courtes. Dans l'ensemble, c'est une expérience authentique qui rappelle les vieux diners et qui attire les amateurs de comfort food québécoise.
I'm giving this place five stars because it offers a great experience if you're seeking to get a couple of steamies & some fries just like the good old days.
The hot dogs & garnishing were very fresh, & taste it just like the typical Lester steamie. Unfortunately the fries were a bit disappointing. Not sure what oil they use but it had very little flavor, overly browned & soggy. They do not rank amongst the top fries if you're looking for the typical Quebec style.

This is diner food perfection! The double burger was phenomenal. The two beef patties were perfectly seared & incredibly juicy, served on a fresh, toasted bun.
Equally great were the fries-thick-cut & tasting truly homemade.
It's a classic, satisfying meal executed flawlessly.
Best overall classic poutine in the city everything is done right, the sauce is neither too thick or runny, nor is it overly salty. Fries have a nice crispness & the cheese is up to standards. Also can't forget the spruce beer. Hidden gem in PSC, wish it was open on Sundays!
One of the best old-school greasy spoons in the city, everything is delicious, & the staff is always friendly. This place has to be one of the few left that still sells spruce beer!
This place has the distinction of being a favorite spot for Celine Dion & many other famous Canadian & international celebrities. Here, you're in for one of the most delicious burgers & poutines of your life, all while enjoying a warm & cozy local atmosphere. Jacqueline is always ready to welcome you with her warm smile & hospitable personality, & she always remembers your favorite order. She prepares her handmade burgers with love, offering a unique flavor that sets them apart from any other burger. The fries used for the poutine are freshly made on-site, which, in my opinion, is a big plus. The setting is local, incredibly welcoming, & her young, friendly staff are both polite & kind.
Good quality simple "grubby" type of food. If you're in the mood for a good ol steamy, this place is great or Angus beef burgers, their famous épinette beer isn't for me personally, though the fries I ordered had no flavor to it, they didn't salt it. I don't know if that standard or they just forgot. The inside is cute, it's a time warp. You'll often see older folks in there eating by the counter, they seem to be regulars. You can't replicate that vibe. For take out, I'd suggest getting there 30 mins before closing if you want to order anything otherwise they're cleaning up & you can't order anything.
We revisited Montréal over the long weekend with our daughter & our 1st meal was poutine from Paul Patates which was low key & popular among texi drivers. I am not a fan of fries so usually don't like poutine but their poutine was impressively satisfying with rich gravy.

I love hole in wall restaurants, & this was just great. The burger & fries hit the spot. The poutine was good. I like that they had the option of mini-poutine. It was just perfect for my kids.
Montreals best kept secret! It's honestly better than the other poutine places I've had in Montreal! Whats best it's close to Corona Theater! Absolute hidden gem, service & food is supreme quality & will never get tired of it. The staff is super friendly & that I had a grand time going before a show & I am gonna go back again this week! Can't wait to come here more often!
The best food This is hamburger heaven Fries were amazing Hot dogs simply the best You may have heard the story of small out of the way places that serve the best food ever? This is that place The food is simply the Best
What a gem! Come here for the atmosphere at least. You walk through the door & you are transported back in time. The service is super-friendly. Don't expect any frills, just straight forward casse croute food. The star turn here is that they brew their own spruce beer, so make sure you try that. Other than that, just pick a stool at the bar!
A classic place to enjoy some real michigan hotdogs, hamburgers & french fries. & they taste just as good as they did 40 years ago. Definitely worth a visit whenever you're in the Pointe!
