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.

Great food & great service every time! It is a very quaint place & really cool to visit since it's been around for a very long time! Nothing fancy but definitely worth visiting & enjoying the tasty food!

We've come here for as long as I could remember, we did our family birthdays here when I was a kid! Although we moved away from NDG, coming back feels like home. My husband recently did a ventilation job here & even then, he was treated like family & fed very generously. This review is long due. The team & service has remained consistently amazing through the years & they still serve the best rotisserie chicken in town.

Love this chicken, love the fries & sauce. The best part of Chalet bar-b-q? Tina. Outstanding service, always with a smile & welcoming- even at the very end of the day. Thank you Tina for taking care of us!

A classic'chalet' style restaurant. Been around for years & years. I only started going there when I met my boyfriend. It's his family's go-to spot.
Chicken is great. Sauce is great. Service is great. Not many options to choose from (which is great for me, too many options make it harder to choose).
Simply & straight to the point. If you live chicken, you'll love this place.

Just like walking into the past! A must go to restaurant with family or friends. The staff were friendly & took the time to chat with you & ask if everything was to our satisfaction. The food was cooked to perfection & the coleslaw to die for!

This isn't the hottest spot, nor is it any better than your Swiss Chalet, but it was well priced. Gravy was very nice, poutine too. I like the spot, but it's not high on the list of places you have to visit. Either way, I approve. 3.8 on 5.

Ordered at 6:45. Waited until 8:10. Called & was told they went to the wrong address. Told them to send a replacement out ASAP. Called again at 9PM & was told 10 minutes. Food showed up by 9:15. They gave me a discount, but this was far below what I have experienced in my 50+ years as a customer.
