We went there 2 people & got 3 dishes, were so full after that. They are all the very classic dishes but all taste very good. Would recommend if you want a classic brunch in Montréal! 😁

This restaurant is a hidden gem. The welcoming vibe is perfect for a night out. The main dishes & appetizers were both highlights of our dinner. Service was attentive without being overbearing. I can't wait to come back & try even more items from their diverse menu.

Really tasty smoked meat. Got 1/2 for $14 & a jar of mustard for $4. Meat was tasty but got medium fatty & Some parts were like chunks/globs of fat, so that downgraded them slightly.
Staff was super nice though.

What an iconic staple of Montreal history, it is like a walk back in time with it's older decor & family based atmosphere. The food is quite affordable but very delicious, we got the smoke meat sandwiches with their fries. Our server was very funny, friendly & provided great recommendations to us first timers. It is very different from Schwartz but just as delicious in a different manner, their smoke meat is very tender & juicy! Worth a visit & the servers are worth tipping ✨?

Snowden is a classic Montreal deli. When people ask about Schwartz's, I tell them to come here. Hart & the team really try to offer the best service possible. We have used them for large catering several times & they always are highly reliable.

I recommend the smoked meat sandwich & fries.

If you have a car skip Schwartz's & come to Snowdon instead. No long tourist lines, & you don't feel rushed. This has all the benefits of one of Montreal's best smoked meat sandwich experience without the lines. The staff are all very friendly & many locals come here.

Not for everyone but they have amazing chopped liver here! I always get a pound of it to go whenever I'm in Montreal.
