Overall Pointe Claire Deli is fondly regarded for its cozy atmosphere, strong brunch menu and generous portions, with many diners raving about items like huevos rancheros, smashed potatoes, avocado toast with halloumi and the fried chicken plates, and praising friendly service and a laid back vibe when staff are at their best. Despite the praise, reviews frequently flag family friendliness as a concern due to no high chairs or changing tables, stroller restrictions and tight booths, while some customers note accessibility and bathroom limitations; service can be variable and prices sometimes feel high for the value, though others celebrate the quality and atmosphere and say they will return.
Great honestly! Just don't get the huevos rancheros (really glad that they have them at all, by the way) because the actual diner food looked so much better. Those potatoes were spectacular though
Went there for lunch yesterday around 11h45 for lunch. Place was full but there was no waiting. Waitress 5/5. Ticket time a little long but worth it.
My husband had fried chicken & eggs. I had sime kind of hamburger with bacon tomato mayo with yellow sweet buns. It was delicious. Just can't remember the name. Smashed potatoes, different but tasty.
Things to fine tune: learn how to present the food. When it arrived, our plates looked unattractive & unappealing.
Would def go back.
The place needs an overall lift, it looks neglected.
Food & service 5 ⭐?
Also, not wheelchair friendly/access or bathroom.
Lots of parking

I loved my first time trying their breakfast. It was amazing! They might have the best breakfast potatoes in all of Montreal. Such good quality ingredients & flavors, & great price too!
The huevos rancheros were great! Potatoes are also very good but impressive how they have such a good menu. The carrot-cake pancakes were also fantastic!
I went to the Pointe-Claire Deli the other day & had the best sandwich I have ever had in my life. Seriously. It is called the Philly grilled cheese, a scrumptious mix of braised beef, Swiss cheese, peppers (I asked for no green ones), & onions on sourdough bread. There was a sauce too. It was served with the crispiest home-fried potatoes, ever. My friend had an Avo & Pico benedict that she really enjoyed. Service was super friendly. I liked the atmosphere. The place is very clean. The new owners kept the same booth seating as the restaurant had for years, which was comfortable. The music was chill. Overall, a great dining experience. Looking forward to returning soon. Note that the sandwich I ordered is available as part of the lunch menu, which starts at 11.00. Breakfast is served until closing.
My wife & I came to Montreal for the a few days from Toronto, on our way back we decided to stop for breakfast/lunch & I must say we were not disappointed! The food was amazing, the staff were friendly. The only disappointment was not finding this place sooner on our trip. Next time we come back to Montreal we know where to stop!
WOW! Excellent service, unique atmosphere & food is beyond awesome. This place wins the title of the best breakfast potatoes I've ever ate in my entire life!
I cannot say enough about this place. If you know it, you know it. The food never disappoints. It has THE BEST fried chicken, the most amazing'smashed potatoes' & Sebastian is always there, keeping the place groovy. They always play the best tunes, & the décor is reminiscent of a classic Seattle-like spot. It's my first choice for breakfast & lunch on the West Island, hands down. I'm grateful that we have this kind of gourmet gem here. Thanks to the owner for keeping it real!
