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.

Décevant comme première expérience à ce restaurant de renom! Poulet (2 cuisses): Bien dodu & cuisson parfaite. La peau aurait pu être plus dorée & craquante. 4/5 Frites: Belle texture mais goût inintéressant, voire désagréable. 1/5 Sauce: Trop épaisse & certainement pas la meilleure (celle de St-Hubert est reine!). En plus il n'y en avait pas assez pour 2 cuisses & frites! 2/5 Salade de chou: Semblable à la traditionnelle de St-Hubert mais moins goûteuse. 3/5

Best chicken in town with a side of award winning fries. A sign used to hang in this restaurant that read: "When chicken such as this is served, a person never lingers, he sets aside his knife & fork & eats it with his fingers."

Nothing equals their chicken. Apple wood fire taste for real. Can't be more tender.

Hello world! Let's go eat chicken on a spit! IT'S ALL ABOUT THE GOLDEN, CRISPY SKIN! But Sir, I don't eat the skin of my chicken, like Johnny Utah! Alright, I recently had the pleasure of dining at Chalet BBQ, & may I say... it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, Steve & Catherine made us feel right at home with their warm hospitality. The atmosphere was cozy & the chalet of your grandparents, perfect for a relaxed meal. Now, let's talk about the food... absolutely incredible! The chicken was perfectly cooked, bursting with original, authentic flavor, & the poutine was equally delicious. I honestly, highly recommend you all go eat their signature, slow cooked chicken, you won't be disappointed! What really stood out was the attention to detail & the passion they put into their cooking. Steve & Catherine truly care about their patrons & it shows in every aspect of the dining experience. If you're looking for a fantastic meal & a friendly atmosphere, Chalet BBQ is the place to be! I can't wait to go back for another round of their amazing chicken & poutiiiiine! Thank you Steve, you're a great man! & to you Catherine, my family adored you! See you when I see you.

The best rotisserie chicken. This place is the OG of chalet style chicken. The gravy/chicken sauce is so good it's drinkable. & the coleslaw is so amazing because the cabbage is perfectly sliced & not weird little pieces, it's like lace. Can't say enough about this place. Forget st-Hubert & forget Swiss chalet. This is the place!!

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.

Love love love Chalet BBQ. We often go once a week. The food is predictably good, the staff warm friendly & attentive, & of course that timeless decor. It's nice that somethings in life don't change. Please don't ever close your doors - ever!
