Fun little spot with tasty food at a good price, within easy walking distance of the Botanical Gardens. The classic poutine had a rich gravy & they were VERY generous with the cheese curds, which is always a plus. Nice fresh coleslaw with a tangy dressing, & a wide selection of premium soft drinks made it easy to round out the meal.

Staff is very friendly & were patient with an anglophone like myself; counter service was prompt, with food being brought out to the table. Restaurant is busy with takeout service, but the space is well appointed so you can relax with your food without feeling rushed. Atmosphere is hip without trying too hard, it definitely has that unique Montréal vibe!

We were visiting Montreal & our friends took us here. We had the classic & it was soooo delicious. The potatoes they use was so good. Gravy & cheese were not overpowering. One of the best poutines I've had. But the vibe was good & it was close to Mount Royal, Olympic stadium, biodome, botanical garden. Great spot!

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.

A great poutine that delighted my taste buds. The service was excellent & definitely great vibes. The lights were missing a few lightbulbs in the restaurant dining area. I would also suggest a cool selfie wall with the huge amount of plants they have.
