    We first ate at Cafe Cherrier in 2008 so we were looking forward to another meal on our most recent visit.  Admittedly the menu isn't extensive nor is the cooking the best, but the atmosphere and service are really nice.  It's the type of restaurant that really reminds one of being in Paris.

    Cafe Cherrier has a french charm. Its decoration and environment resemble a french bistro. The location is charming but the food however is OK. Looking like a french restaurant does not always mean that food will be out of this world. I have had both breakfast and dinner at Cafe Cherrier and I am always left with the feeling; "is it just me or could the food be better?".

    I would take my friends for an evening drink at the bar to experience the ambiance but otherwise I am not rushing back.

    A recent road trip to Montreal took us here - close to McGill, in the plateau/Mont Royal neighbourhood, Cafe Cherrier is a lovely place to dine!

    The service was amazing, all staff appeared to be bilingual, there is a beautiful patio, and the decor inside is very "I'm in paris".  The crowd is a little older, a little more sophisticated - it's definitely not full of boisterous young drinkers - but it's plenty lively, full of that charming Montreal upscale hustle and bustle.

    With a great wine list, and 4 or 5 beer options (as well as cocktails), this was the perfect place to grab a late afternoon snack and beverage. Also at our table was the cheese plate, and the frits. As cliche as it sounds,try the FRENCH fries, they're beyond delicious. Between that and my Stella, I was in heaven. (There is also a full dining menu, reasonably priced)

    Cafe Cherrier was a delight to dine at. Great service, charming atmosphere, delicious food, and blocks away from other restaurants, shopping, and anything else you might be looking for. I think you may even be able to see Heidi & Seal's house across the park...

    Cherrier was just fine but not great when we visited on a Saturday morning. My cappuccino was not great, our server was way too busy to give us needed attention, and our food, while good, was nothing extraordinary.

    My eggs Benedict was delicious with a well-made Hollandaise sauce, and I must say, the location is charming. I just wouldn't rush back.

    Good food and good service. The prices are according to what you get and the side dishes are substantial.

    It has a nice European feel and has a nice terrace.

    I really would have missed this place had I not been trying so hard to look for it and I'm damn glad I did find it. Cafe Cherrier has a beautiful patio that wraps around the store and is nearly covered up by the abundance of plants and flowers which make it a great place to sit for brunch.

    Our brunch was not too expensive (appx $10-14 / person) and the food was pretty good! I can personally attest for the smoked salmon crepe, the amount of cheese and the holandaise sauce with the salmon made it reaallly tasty. They have freshly squeezed juices which was a plus and their service was A+.

    Had an awesome dinner here on the patio in the front.  Great people watching, and lovely atmosphere.  Menu was VERY limited for a vegetarian, but, my pasta was very tasty and the bread they brought to the table was yummy.  My husband had salmon and said it was good and the bottle of wine our table ordered was very good and relaxing.  The service was fabulous.  Highly recommend, great location.

    I'm a breakfast person.  So Cafe Cherrier was one of the more memorable places I patronized in Montreal.  It's open for lunch and dinner too.  (I can just imagine the people hanging out on the restaurant patio drinking wine and beer on a nice weather day.)  I had their smoked salmon crepe with white sauce for breakfast. Dee-licious! ...And I am not an egg person.  The orange juice is freshly squeezed and the coffee is fabulous which is a big plus...just enough flavor but without the bitter aftertaste that goes with overroasted beans.  The portions are enough for a hearty breakfast with out being too much.  The decor is sleek diner and you can sit at the bar and eat if there isn't a table available...which is where it seems the locals eat.  The prices for breakfast don't break the bank and most come in under $10/plate.

    I'm told lots of famous Montrealers go here. I wouldn't know though because I haven't lived here in a long time.
    It's got a bit of an L.A. feel in that people are looking around at each other a lot.
    It's not uncommon for two grown men to go to lunch here and sit at a little table, order a bottle of wine, share it, eat, laugh, discuss. Maybe this is what people mean when they say Montreal is European. Cause you certainly wouldn't see that in States.
    I love sitting at the counter and I love brunch. This restaurant located just north of the Latin Quarter on Saint Denis is perfect for both. Food is consistently fresh and good. You can order one eggs Benedict instead of two if you aren't famished - I like that.
    A place to leisurely enjoy one of your weekend late mornings. I've sat at the counter deep in conversation until only an hour of daylight was left in the afternoon. Allonge, mimosa, fresh fruit in the middle of winter. Love, love, love it.

    We enjoyed a late lunch on the outdoor patio during the first week of June 2010.  The service was good, the food was excellent and the ambiance was nice.  As other reviewers have noted, it does have a European feel.  The salad with chicken livers was excellent as was the goat cheese salad.

    Had lunch on a warm sunny saturday. We sat outside on the lovely terrace.  I had the chicken liver salad, which was excellent, my husband had the croque monsieur, which was served opened faced.  He said it was very good,  I had a glass of the Quebecois Rose which was very nice.  The service was attentive and efficient.  It was a very nice restaurant, and especially on a sunny day if you enjoy outdoor dinning.
