Good food & service. Place needs a revamp though.

Comically overpriced. $20 for pancakes & then they charge you extra for maple syrup. Quite possibly the most expensive yet most basic pancakes with syrup in north America.

The cornbeef hash was way overpriced & worse than waffle house with only a couple bites of beef… I felt like I was being punked or something. How in god's name is this place still open?

Bel accueil, service relativement long, j'ai eu le temps de manger mon smoked meat avant que les frites arrivent, 1 seul pickle pour une assiette de smoked meat, le pain était température pièce & le sandwich non assemblé...70$ à deux ! Excellent repas, mais la barre était trop haute, un peu attrape touriste comme endroit.

This place is great don't get me wrong, the prices are getting a little insane though. 25$ for a sandwich & fries? I'm sorry but that's too much.

Wow I am so glad we decided to visit Snowden Deli on our trip to Montreal. That absolute best meal we have had on this trip. Had family from UK with us & they were in awe. Special thanks to Elizabeth who made us feel so welcome & made sure we were taken care of. The best experience ever!!

The general vibe is highly positive, friendly, & sociable. The help is quick. I will certainly be back in the future to see what else is left to experience around here.
