Loved this place. Plenty of Poutine variations, fries were still crispy, curds tasty, combinations galore- all that you'll love about trying poutine for the first time. Much more on the menu that I didn't have the space to try but definitely a staple of Montreal

Actually a really rustic looking corner restaurant with wood & steel interiors. It's giving industrial vibes. Anyway, fairly empty of a Tuesday afternoon. A bit if a walk after having visited the BioDome earlier but there are only so many options nearby. We took a chance on Poutine Centrale & were not disappointed. There are some tables in the front & then the ordering counter. Plenty of seating in the back as well. Heard good things about the Jacqueline so we got a small to share with 2 sodas. It was the perfect snack. Loved loved loved the fried cheese. Went well with the sour cream & gravy & bacon. The day was beautiful so they also opened up the windows.

Friendly service & great poutine! Highly recommend! Close to the Montreal Biodome & Planétarium so definitely worth the detour.

I had poutine with smoked meat & I really enjoyed it! Crispy fries, tasty sauce, a few slices of pickle - everything made for a perfect Montreal poutine. Will definitely go back.

Many options to choose from but of course I had to get the classic. I wasn't impressed, I thought the sauce was bland & the fries were overcooked/mushy. Better than anything you can get out of province, but that's a low bar. The portion was big, but it was also just over 20$ after tax, which I find is way too much for a poutine, let alone a mediocre one.

I am currently writing this review as I sit in the restaurant. It is so good I just couldn't wait. The food is fantastic here! Super friendly staff as well. We found this place by chance & we're so happy we did. Portion size is also very big. Highly recommend. If I could give more stars I would!
