With its impressive real-wood smokehouse, and its choice of original and comforting meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner, the new Pork & Pickle restaurant offers a warm and cozy food experience in the Domestic Area.
Feedback on Pork & Pickle at the Montreal airport shows a wide range from standout dishes and fast, friendly service to inconsistent food quality and patchy experiences. Some diners praise smoky brisket, spicy wings, a creamy mac and cheese, and a burger with generous portions, while others report dry or cold meat, underwhelming sides, slow or uneven service, and inflated airport prices. Several visits are described as having excellent hospitality and a lively, bar like atmosphere, but several other experiences note misprepared orders, missing toppings, rude interactions, and pressure around tipping. Overall, Pork & Pickle is seen as a dependable option for travelers seeking a hearty meal before a flight, with both high points and notable flaws depending on the visit.
Ordered lunch to go at the bar. Restaurant was packed but I was able to get my meal in less than 10 mins. The smoked chicken was a little dry & too smokey, but otherwise I enjoyed the sausage & all my sides. For $35, I felt it was a fair price considering the price of food at quick service stations or on the plane. I had enough for two meals on my flights home.
Mediocre at best. The food was not great. The ribs were dry & burnt. The chicken lacked flavour. The wings & the sides were ok. The sharing plates that we got were not washed properly which is a red flag!
We had breakfast here on Monday April 7th, 6:30am.
Our waiter George gets 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟, food 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.
To the waitress who had no good morning for us, & threw 5 menu's on our table for 3 of us. Zero stars, I hope your day got better. But I have my doubts. LoL
Hussam was fantastic. He demonstrated a great work ethic, was friendly, efficient, & apologetic when things didn't go to plan with his customers - which was beyond his control. Give some love to Hussam for being a great worker.
We had the Cajun rub wings, which were good, & the BBQ drippings mac & cheese, which was light on the cheese. Overall, a decent spot to stop when detained in terminal A at Montreal airport. Thanks, Hussam.

Had a couple hours to waste at the Montreal airport & decided to finally give this spot a try. The tables & spacing is good for the massive amount of space they have, & when I went there it wasn't that busy so did not have people close to my table. The server that attended to me was amazing! Made sure my beer was always full & my order was taken right away. They have a good selection of domestic & imported beers on tap. I personally love local craft beer which they had a couple of on tap. I ordered the smoked bacon chicken club with fries, & do they ever pile the fries. It came with ketchup & horseradish dip which was amazing with the crispy fries. The club was delicious with perfect amount of toppings & flavour. Price was typical for airport restaurant ($60 for food & 2 beers not including tip). Overall the Pork & Pickle restaurant was overdue for me to try & did not disappoint. Highly recommend!
It's airport food, so not expecting great, but this place wasn't bad. Limited options in the airport so it's nice seeing a place offer a decent variety. I enjoyed my meal, just wished the portion would have reflected the price.
I had a great meal with a phenomenal server. Unfortunately I heard the manager saying very negative things to the servers in front of multiple customers. At one point he yelled at the server to go to HR if they had an issue with him. Another server asked him to treat & speak to them like humans & he said no because he doesn't have the patience. I feel bad for every single hard working member of staff here & I hope he understand this is a completely ineffective & irresponsible way to manage staff. Completely embarrassing for the reputation of this manager. He should be completely ashamed.
