Info & Location
About us
Rotisserie Chalet Bar-B-Q opened its doors in August 1944. Over the years we have built a legendary reputation for the best roast chicken in the world. This really is the connoisseur's choice! We selectively buy wholesale chicken, always fresh and plump. Our chickens are slowly roasted in brick kilns on real maple charcoal. We ensure that all our chickens are gold and crisp on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. When served with our famous home-made dipping sauce, nothing compares. Simply delicious. Bon Appetit!

Chalet Bar-B-Q is a forever favorite. It is what it is & loved by many, many Montrealers. We travel all the way from St. Lazare occasionally to eat or pick up a chicken & fries from take-out. Latest visit was after a show in downtown Montreal.View more

My first time eating here & I was not disappointed! Chicken was great, fries are easily the best fries I've ever had & the SAUCE! absolutely delish. Highly recommend, portions are great for the price you pay. & beer for under 6$! Worth a trip out hereView more

Great fries. Chicken could have been cooked more. Had a nice flavour. I didn't like the sauce. A bit like stepping back in time to the 60's. It's okay but I wouldn't go back.View more

Best chicken in town done the real way no gas & you will taste the it when you try. Warning the other chicken places will all taste bad if you compare to Chalet Bar-B-QView more

« Quatre-vingts ans & toutes ses dents » Saviez-vous que le sosie de Gregory Charles travaille au Chalet Bar-B-Q ? La dame qui émit le commentaire, approuvé par son époux, en avait l'air convaincue, tandis que Youssef, le serveur, paraissait plutôt dubitatif, mais amusé. À mon avis, la ressemblance se limitait au regard allumé & au sourire bienveillant. Dans tous les cas, ça pouvait se prendre comme un compliment. Habillé d'un pantalon noir & d'une chemise blanche à l'instar des autres employés aux tables, nous avons été gentiment & patiemment assistés par ce même Youssef qui s'est livré à quelques brins de conversation à mon grand plaisir. C'est ainsi que j'en ai appris davantage sur ce vénérable restaurant qui soufflera bientôt 80 bougies en juillet. Autrefois célébré comme lieu où l'on pouvait déguster du délicieux poulet cuit au charbon de bois avec une bonne grosse pinte de bière jusqu'à tard dans la nuit, l'horaire & l'offre alcoolisée se sont assagis, mais le poulet & sa sauce magique demeurent des classiques immuables. Ces derniers attirent simultanément jusqu'à trois générations de la même famille aux confortables & intimes banquettes du Chalet installées le long des murs. On relate qu'il n'y a pas souvent de jeunes visages curieux comme le mien & celui de mon amie. Le menu semble certes dater d'une autre époque, mais... & puis ? C'était délicieux naguère & ce l'est encore aujourd'hui ! Certains jours, il y aurait même encore des files pour entrer, & la cause n'est certainement pas le manque d'espace. Alors, pourquoi ne pas faire comme nous ? Allez-y à deux, trois, quatre amis, faites venir comme minimum une entrée d'ailes de poulet, un quart de poitrine ou de cuisse, selon vos palais, & un sandwich chaud servi avec de bonnes frites. Apaisés par la nourriture, savourez un instant de tranquillité dans cette ambiance feutrée & chaleureuse. Votre estomac, rassasié, vous remerciera, de même que votre portefeuille ! Un repas complet & savoureux pour 25 $ ou moins. Truc du connaisseur pour économiser : sautez dans votre machine à voyager dans le temps, insérez « 1944 » pour l'année, & ne déboursez plus que 10 cents.View more

They've been making great chicken for the past 80 years, my go to rotisserie chicken place.View more

Le meilleur poulet BBQ à Montréal depuis bientôt 80 ans! Une valeur sûre, une sauce bbq unique en son genre & un poulet toujours juteux & rôti à la perfection. & que dire des frites! Comme nul part ailleurs. Un goût authentique. & les serveuses qui y sont depuis des années font partie du plaisir de visiter ce restaurant familial !View more

Chalet BBQ is nothing short of an icon in NDG, so talking trash about this establishment would be like insulting the Pope right in the Vatican. No danger of trash talking this place as far as I'm concerned. The chicken is moist & perfect, the fries are EXACTLY the way fries should be & the sauce is simply delicious. UPDATE: After a few years, we finally returned to Chalet BBQ to enjoy some delicious BBQ chicken. Food was just as good as before, but the service has deteriorated considerably. We were 2 couples & one of our friends are handicapped & had a problem with his legs. Even though we arrived late in the evening, with the restaurant 80% empty, the host/manager refused to give us the larger booth so our friend could sit & get up safely, instead telling us he was "...saving the booth for larger parties". Needless to say, no other parties arrived & the booth was left empty, while the 4 of us sat at a small table crowded in the corner. I grew up in NDG & all my friends & I practically lived in this restaurant. What an insulting'homecoming' that was. After being treated like Persona non Grata, we'll do this manager a favor & won't be returning.

Simple warm basic food (based on chicken & potato). Good family atmosphere. Lager graft beer. Good place especially during cold winter weather.View more

A fixture of the NDG neighbourhood for the 80 years, this restaurant is still going strong serving up some of the best rotisserie chicken. This place has that old school restaurant decor with the vinyl clad booth seats & wood wall panelling. Food was piping hot & delicious - staff are perfectly bilingual. I highly recommend this place for that classic Montréal restaurant experience & top-class rotisserie chicken.View more

Chalet Bar-B-Q exceeded my expectations! The chicken was impeccably cooked, bursting with flavor. The ambiance was delightful, & the service was top-notch. If I could, I'd give it 6 stars on Google Maps. Highly recommended!View more

I have been coming here for more than 40 years as it was a family favorite. The chicken is tender & tasty, the FRIES are the best in Montreal, in my humble opinion. & THE SAUCE. I used to drink what was left when i was young. Not much has changed over the years EXCEPT for the size of the chicken they serve. i felt as if I was eating a baby chicken, the drumstick was so small!! They must have changed supplier. Charge more, but give us a normal size chicken leg, please. I will still go back, but will have to order two legs instead of one...View more

Very cozy place to grab a nice meal & enjoy the service. It was my first time visiting Montréal & we needed a nice meal before heading back home. This place came about & we decided to try it. It was a great choice! The food was delicious & filling, & our waitress was wonderful. The waitress was very friendly & gave us recommendations to save some money. Their gravy has a hint of heat. Their fries were crispy & very palletable. Chicken soup was perfect to warm up. I liked their water pitcher. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of their water pitcher. Go & check it out.View more

Super poulet!! Belles portions! Il faut aussi savoir que la sauce bbq est vraiment différente: différente de celle de St-Hubert & de celle de Benny. Elle est un peu plus sucrée & elle contient ce qui semble être de la cannelle. Une fois qu'on s'attend à cela, on apprécie & c'est vraiment bon. Le restaurant existe depuis 1944! Il y a beaucoup d'histoire dans ces murs! Le décors semble ne pas avoir changé depuis très longtemps, mais c'est très propre & l'aspect "vieillot" contribue au cachet & à l'atmosphère. Ça fait vintage mais "d'origine", pas "refait"... C'est cool! Bravo! À l'équipe du Chalet BBQ!😋👍View more

Es war erst eine Empfehlung meines Schwiegervaters. „Eines der letzten Originale aus seiner Zeit". Als ich dann auf der Bank platz nahm, kann in der Tat das Gefühl eines alten Diners auf. Das Personal ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit. 1/2 Hähnchen mit Pommes und Krautsalat... genial. Das beste... es gibt auch Bier.😄 Ich kann es nur sehr empfehlen dem Restaurant einen Besuch abzustatten, wenn ihr in Montreal seid.View more
