Restaurant 1881 recueille des avis majoritairement positifs sur des ingrédients frais, des plats savoureux et un service attentif dans un cadre moderne et cosy; les convives louent les portions généreuses et des plats phares tels que la salade de canard, les tartares, le shakshuka et les brunches, avec des prix raisonnables pour le centre-ville de Montréal; l'ambiance est décrite comme calme et propice à la conversation, et l'espace donne souvent l'impression d'une adresse coup de cœur à revisiter; quelques critiques mentionnent un service parfois plus lent en heures chargées et des tables près des fenêtres qui peuvent être un peu froides, mais dans l'ensemble les clients repartent impressionnés et enclins à revenir avec des amis.
Nous avons découvert par hasard ce restaurant & nous nous sommes arrêtés pour prendre un dessert. Les 2 desserts étaient excellents & les plats servis autour de nous faisaient très envie.

Ce resto, c'est rendu ma deuxième maison 😁 Le chef est tellement gentil, la bouffe est top, l'équipe accueillante & l'ambiance parfaite. J'y retourne encore & encore ! 🌺
I went there a while ago in August with some friends. We're teenagers, & we really tried to be respectful & not too loud. Despite that, we felt pretty neglected by the staff. The food was good, but I can't say much about the atmosphere since we went around 3 PM & the place was almost empty. I still left a tip at the time, but looking back, I kind of regret it because of the way we were treated.
Bien qu'il soit un peu difficile de trouver le restaurant, il représente un excellent rapport qualité prix au centre-ville de Montréal. Je n'hésiterai pas à y retourner.
Great food, good helpings, reasonable price. Servers were a little new, but that happens. We met the chef/owner , very nice .
I would definitely return.
The food is incredibly delicious , every bite is bursting with flavor & clearly made with care. The service is exceptional, with staff that are both attentive & genuinely friendly. On top of that, the place is spotlessly clean, which adds so much to the overall experience.
Whether you're from Montreal or just visiting, this spot is an absolute must-try. You won't be disappointed!
I came to eat with my friends & we got the beef tartare with fries..It was excellent!!! My friend got the burger & she loved it. Amazing taste & quality!
Exceptionally dedicated & pleasant kitchen chef making a superb breakfast sandwich named 1881 w/ homemade sausage.
Highly recommended.
A bit quiet place, but perfect for me.
Also, coffee machine was not ideally tweaked at my visit, so if a coffee nerd (like me), go here for the excellent food.
Nevertheless, there was a clear desire to to make high class coffee & e.g. grinder was definitely capable & sourcing of beans were also prioritized.

I had the hamburger with fries, cooked medium, & it was absolutely phenomenal - possibly the best burger I've ever had. The quality of the meat really stood out: rich, flavorful, & clearly fresh. It was cooked perfectly, juicy without being greasy, & the grilled onions added a sweet, smoky touch that took it to another level.
The bun was fresh & held everything together without falling apart, & the toppings were well-balanced - nothing overpowering, just complementing the star of the show: the beef.
The fries were crispy, golden, & clearly made with care. Every part of the plate felt thoughtfully prepared.
If you're in Montreal & want a burger that's a cut above the rest, Le 1881 is a must-try. I'll absolutely be coming back.
We hosted an event here, excellent venue! The food was spectacular, great service & a great location overall. From the delicious full course meal to the great ease in organizing the event, I would absolutely recommend. Gary & team did a great job, thank you!
I came in for breakfast & had the most perfect breakfast sandwich with a side of amazing potatoes. The wait staff was super friendly & efficient, & the coffee was superb !
