Review Summary

Poutine Centrale is widely celebrated as a fantastic destination for authentic poutine, offering an extensive and delicious variety of toppings that keep visitors coming back. Located conveniently near local attractions like the Biodome and botanical gardens, the restaurant is frequently praised for its cool, industrial-style atmosphere, welcoming service, and engaging touches like interactive chalk drawing. While some diners have noted occasional wait times during busy periods, the high quality of the fresh fries, squeaky cheese curds, and flavorful gravy consistently earns high marks. Guests appreciate the generous portions, the accommodating staff who assist English speakers, and the overall chill vibe that makes it a must-visit spot in Montreal.

This place was awesome! We ate there 3 times while on vacation. The classic poutine is great & we really enjoyed the Philly cheesesteak version as well. Highly recommend!

NOT WORTH THE WAIT

As someone with a background in the restaurant industry & extensive QSR experience, I understand operational efficiency. Watching at least six different parties, including ours, wait over 30 minutes for an order is completely unacceptable.

It is poutine. Fries, cheese, & gravy are prepped & ready to assemble, so a party of three or four should never wait longer than 8 minutes. I timed the orders as they came up, & individual poutines were taking over 8 minutes each to complete. The staff showed zero urgency, moving at a snail's pace regardless of how busy it was. Tournament food trucks serve crowds at three times this speed with a fraction of the setup, so there is really no excuse.

Extremely disappointing service. We will not be back.

Love it. Post-industrial vibe. Fantastic smoked meat poutine. Cool staff. Cold IPAs. Worth tracking down.

We wanted authentic poutine & we scored. Huge menu of options. Very friendly staff. Be advised, there is no a/c (like many places here) so it was quite warm, but other than that, highly recommend!

We waited over a hour for our food. Went up after waiting for 45 minutes to figure out they forgot about our order. For a simple order of poutine I would expect better service. Cool atmosphere but bad service.

Very small niche little places with some great bilingual service, great prices, really good tasting burger & the shawarma poutine was quite good!
