The sandwiches are delicious, but the customer service is top-tier. Everyone in there is super personable & asking questions! I would definitely recommend this spot! We got the Wilensky special & the old fashioned cherry cola, it was so good!

This sandwich shop has been here since 1932, truly an iconic Montreal food spot. I got the Wilensky Special which is an all-beef salami & bologna sandwich with Swiss cheese. It was simple & delicious. I love how they still do the coco cola from scratch which is a craft that's hardly seen anymore except in old diners.

Loved Wilensky's - everything about it! The sandwich & pickles were excellent & the staff & atmoshere were too. We enjoyed walking there from downtown & we look forward to going back the next time we are in Montreal.

There is nothing much need to say about Wilensky, it isn't a place for gourmet food nor Michelin stars, but it is a star on it's own. The taste of tradition.

Simplicity pulled off with precision & excellence is how places become institutions. Wilensky's is absolutely an institution & you are doing yourself a disservice if you don't go for lunch when you visit the city.

If you live here & you haven't been yet, what are you doing??

Wilensky's Light Lunch - Montreal

This place has a special kind of magic. Often, well-known or iconic spots can feel rushed or unfriendly, but that wasn't the case here at all. Sharon was incredibly kind & welcoming-happy to chat, answer questions, & genuinely interact with guests.

The special sandwich is delicious in its simplicity, letting the flavours speak for themselves, & the cherry cola is a perfect match. If I return to Montreal, I'll definitely come back. This is truly a must-visit in the city.

Muy Rico 🤤

Wilensky's has a new team member who is fully bilingual & a comedian to boot. Didn't think the experience could get any better. A gem!

Nestled in the mile-end on the corner of rue Clark & Fairmount West, Wilensky's Light Lunch has been serving grilled sandwiches since it opened in 1932.

As I walked in, I could tell from the friendly banter between the staff & the regulars sitting at the bar that Wilensky's is all about fostering community through food.

I ordered the Wilensky's special, a grilled salami & bologna sandwich with mustard & your choice of cheese (i opted for swiss) served on a kaiser roll. Accompanied by a small bag of house pickles, this really does make for the perfect light lunch.
