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.

Recently took the extended family & friends for dinner at Chalet BBQ. My family has been going here since the 1960's & we still love it! Food is always great, plentiful & good tasting. Service hasn't changed over the years , it's always great. Just doesn't get any better than Chalet BBQ.

Voyage à travers le temps. Le serveur direct en entrant nous a dit si on était prêt à commander. Très bon service. Le poulet est bon aussi. Expérience chaleureuse & réconfortante.

Attentive & kind staff, & delicious food every single time I've gone. The chicken breast, fries & roll are my go to. & a slice of something sweet to finish things off.

It's become a must-visit for me every time I'm in Montreal.

I have to say out of all the old classic well known restaurants in Montreal this place has never changed. Here is where I start my update from previous 5 stars. When I put that original review in over a year ago I actually had not ordered from them in a few years which maybe I should have not quite assumed & jumped the gun at the time or possibly today was a off day but either way this place should never have a off day. I remember once in a while 20-25 years ago sometimes a little less rotisserie flavor was a fraction lighter then usual but today was the 1st time ordered over a period of over 25 years I have been coming here that it really lacked the pasty rotisserie goodness I'm used to it really was not there & rather dry as well. I was actually quite disappointed as a long time customer born & raised in Montreal. At the end of day since the times have changed in general in the past 5 years as we all knew it's not a surprise I have noticed this now at every restaurant at this point. The service still amazing though my buddy the driver I'm mentioning he has been their at least 25 years still gets your food there no more then 25 minutes & he has not changed he still coolest driver in town.

This is the place that time has not touched, it's absolutely a gem delivering quality food & service. The white chicken was moist & juicy, done right! This is the place to take the family. Has that homemade feeling to it, you can tell the staff have been there for years, unlike the franchises. It's a must stop location when in Montreal!

This is a Montreal institution. It is way more than the best chicken place in the country. It is a time capsule. The food is exactly the same as when they opened. Our family has held many events there. A must visit!
