Nous sommes venus manger, ma copine & moi. La poutine était excellente, vraiment délicieuse ! Par contre, le service était très décevant. Le serveur a simplement déposé les ustensiles au milieu de la table sans rien placer, a lancé les menus au centre, puis est allé s'asseoir pour utiliser son téléphone. Dommage, car la nourriture mérite beaucoup mieux comme service.
We had a great experience at Poutineville Bishop! We ordered a large classic poutine & honestly did not expect such a generous serving size, it was almost the size of a full steak plate. For $13, that's amazing value.
The real highlight of our visit was our server, Zoe. She was incredibly friendly, polite, & helpful. What impressed us most was that she was running the entire (& busy!) restaurant on her own with about ten tables, & she handled everything calmly & professionally. That kind of service deserves recognition.
The classic poutine was satisfying & well made. Next time, we will definitely try one of the customized poutines: the menu has great options inspired by Canada, the US, Italy, & even Thailand 😊.
Highly recommend if you're in downtown Montreal & craving poutine.
Being from the US, each time I visit Canada I enjoy a nice dish of poutine or two on my trip. So far this has been my favorite. So many choices & everything I tried was amazing. If you order the large be prepared, they aren't lying, it's a lot of food. Luckily a nice hike up to Mt Royal burned off most of the calories.
The Montrealer was probably my favorite but it's hard to choose with options like the Hangover available as well.
The service was great & the atmosphere was relaxed & fun, with hockey on at night & curling during the day when I dined.
Huge portions for a pretty decent price. Really friendly staff & good food. If you want poutine or other snacks then this is a good family friendly choice.
We ordered the Montreal-style poutine, & it was excellent, generous portion, rich flavors, & perfectly cooked fries.
Special thanks to Walid for the friendly, attentive, & professional service. He made the experience smooth & enjoyable.
Solid food, good atmosphere, & great service. We'll definitely be back.
J'ai bien aimé l'endroit, ambiance un peu feutré, tranquille. Au moment où j'y suis allé, il y avait toujours des places assises. J'ai tout de même pris pour emporter, comme je n'habite qu'à quelques coins de rue. Le menu offre une grande variété de saveurs. J'ai opté pour une poutine régulière extra boeuf haché. Les frites sont bonnes, ainsi que la sauce ( personnellement je l'aime un peu plus relevée). Mais malgré tout très bonne poutine.
