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!

Review Summary

Rotisserie Chalet Bar-B-Q stands out as a timeless Montreal landmark where chicken is roasted over charcoal, delivering juicy meat, rich flavor, and generous portions. The menu stays simple and focused on chicken with fries and a house sauce, offering solid value and consistent quality that keeps locals and visitors coming back. The dining room and decor evoke a nostalgic time capsule with wood accents and vintage touches that many reviews describe as charming and cozy. Service is often described as friendly and attentive, with positive notes about fast dine-in and takeout, and occasional slower moments during peak hours. Fans praise the fries, the sauce, and the coleslaw, and many hail the chicken as the best in town or the best BBQ chicken in Canada, reinforcing a strong sense of tradition. The experience of visiting feels like stepping back in time, and the overall atmosphere and portions make it a must visit for those seeking classic rotisserie flavor, with a focus on value and hospitality.

My friend & I visited from Toronto & it was recommended by another friend to try this place out that is the BEST & Original spot for Rotisserie Chicken. I have to say we were both SO impressed everything was amazing in my opinion better than the'comeptitors'. The portions were generous & flavorful. As a member of the service industry myself I was incredibly impressed with the service by Brooklyn she was sweet & attentive a very pleasant addition to the old school charming atmosphere!!!! 5 stars all round.

Best place to have chicken in Montreal

The restaurant looks very nice & inviting. The problem with the tables is that they cannot very well accommodate 4 people & they have a limited number of big tables. The food is nice. I recommend the chicken breast over chicken legs because the leg was small & very fatty. We went there a little late & we think this why the fries were stale. Some of the staff, especially the lady that served us, were very nice & friendly. For the price & quality of service, I think it's a good deal.

When you walk up to this place, you can tell that it stands on decades of tradition & reputation. Starting with the retro street sign which you never see for restaurants anymore, & the building style from the exterior. It is physically built to feel like a Chalet in the city. The prices are reasonable, amazing that they've been able to stay in business all these years while charging reasonable prices - other restaurant-owners, take note! Turns out, serving the same dish for 80 years results in masterful perfection. Every part of the quarter chicken dinner was delicious & well-balanced. The gravy really has a rich, fantastic flavour that compliments the chicken very well. The food doesn't take too long to come out either. Service here is great too.

One should note that the dinning room closes at 9PM. Only takeout section is open till 10PM. Chalet Bar-B-Q is what your Anthony Bourdain dreams are made of! Only a handful of places like this scream "Montreal" like Céline Dion. Chalet puts St-Hubert chicken & french fries to shame. In addition, their desserts will have you wet like a 12 yers old obsessed kid at summer camp.
