Perogie Lili comes across as a cozy, welcoming neighborhood gem offering homemade Ukrainian fare that feels comforting and authentic. The space is small and colorful with floral murals, creating a homey atmosphere, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive. The menu features a wide range of pierogies, many vegetarian options, and hearty borscht, with fillings like potato and cheddar, caramelized onions, sour cream, cherry, cabbage, and wild mushrooms with bacon. Dishes are described as fresh to order, soft and flavorful, with dough that melts in the mouth. There is a sense of care in the experience, with good value, generous portions, and the option to dine in or take away, plus samples and helpful guidance from staff. A portion of proceeds supporting humanitarian relief in Ukraine adds meaning to the visit. Overall, it feels like a place to return to explore more flavors and to feel at home.
By FAR my favorite place I ate while visiting Montreal! I can't recommend this place enough, definitely stop by for a bite.
The food was excellent, the staff was incredibly friendly. There's a lovely little patio to sit at outside the shop.
10/10 perogies. I ordered the patates/ cheddar, a portion of 6 perogies for $11.
The potatoes were smooth & creamy & the cheddar taste was sharp & perfect. I wish I could have taken them home with me!

I'm probably a little spoiled as my mom made some of the best perogies ever but I found them ok a little on the mushy side a little light on the cheddar but the toppings were excellent
A little neighborhood gem serving what can only be described as big bites of comfort; Pierogie Lili offers a small menu of homemade pierogies in a small & colorful space decorated with floral murals.
The food is unassumingly simple, deeply fulfilling & heart-warming, & certainly delicious. The pierogies are heavily stuffed & are sure to satisfy any hunger.
The potato & cheddar is a classic choice that merits its popularity among its crowd. The filling is onctuously smooth with a cheesy flavor.
The staff are very kind & welcoming. They were highly accommodating & open to questions, & offered some complementary meat pierogies for us to try. We certainly felt well taken care of.
All in all, I was delightfully surprised by my experience with Pierogie Lili. This little homely spot has left its mark in my heart with the warmth that radiates from its hospitality & its food.
Been meaning to try this place out since its right next to Kem coba! I visited on a rainy Friday & it's very cozy. The staff is so nice & the decorations are beautiful. There's not much seating but this is the perfect thing to get on the go & eat outside on a sun day.
I got the cheddar potato Perogie & they were so soft, warm, flavourful, & filling. I especially liked the topping of sour cream, dill, & caramelized onions.
A new must stop for me in this neighborhood! I want to try the vegan borsch next time! They have a great menu full of monthly new flavours & creations.
It's a cute little hole in the wall restaurant, which is amazing! From order until eating the perogies was a fantastic experience. The lady at the counter was really helpful, kind, & courteous. We had the puffy pie & the cheddar perogies. The food is delicious! Definitely coming back!

Skip the line at the bagels & gnocchi & come to this fairmount gem instead. The cheddar potato perogies have the smoothest most delicious filling, almost like a puree at Montreal's best fine dining restaurant. 10 stars. Limited seating, but too good for that to matter.
Had some yesterday. Probably going to get more today! I can't stop thinking of them. Get the cheddar perogies with sour cream, caramelized onion, bacon & dill. You won't regret :)
Today, I got takeout from this restaurant & tried the potato & cheddar vareniki, generously sprinkled with bacon! The dough was tender, & the filling was very tasty. I'll definitely come back again
I love the potato cheddar but after trying the Kapusta (caramelized cabbage filling), I think is my favorite of them all!!! It's seasonal but please keep it 🥲
