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.

Just so happened to run into Phil Goyette at lunch here. (Former hab player). The food is always delicious although the Boston cream cake is no longer on the menu for dessert, everything else is still as good as I remember coming here when I was young.

If this is not a'Heritage Montreal' site, it should be. Hands down the very best chicken in Montreal. As soon as you walk in the smell will have you salivating. Fries are awesome! Time machine decor is perfect. Polite friendly service.

Now you will notice I have it 5 stars for atmosphere even though it's all original & out dated. The reason why? Because it's out dated ! It's like going back into one's childhood & it's nostalgic. Food is yummy & predictably delicious. Portions are generous & the home made crisp fries & BBQ sauce are to die for. The chicken in any form is awesome because it a hot chicken sandwich or rotisserie style yummy. Pricing & value are totally there & a great place for a family meal. Not fancy but it gets the job done well. Dave the manager is always on top & making sure everything is done to his high standards. The customers are proof as most are patrons for generations. You have to go.

Excellent poulet, sauce, salade de choux & bonnes frites. Service rapide courtois & expérimenté. Bref, je sais maintenant pourquoi c'est un endroit réputé à Montréal pour le poulet rôti.

This place is okay, really nothing to write home about, if you want "BBQ" (If you want to pretend it's real BBQ) chicken it's decent enough. Nothing really stands out particularly about the food, it's your classic bland run of the mill'BBQ' place. The chicken is mostly flavourless & not anything to write home about, some stuff tastes like cheap canned food (avoid the hot chicken sandwich) I'd say I'd recommend this place, but I really wouldn't, go to a real BBQ restaurant like Moonshine on Monkland.

Le meilleur poulet de Montréal. La sauce en double évidemment. Vieux décor mais toujours rempli de clients satisfaits. Coin Sherbrooke & Décarie...ça vaut le détour. Stationnement à l'arrière. Taken out aussi.
