    Chicken tender wrap, onion rings, chicken BLT (no tomato  :()
    Al U.

    Banging night out. Banging night in (a&ws). CHICKKY chikky boom boom hell yea this was fire. No complaints. Service was impeccable and food slapped my taste buds heavy. Ambiance was peaceful in the dark of night and I WILL be returning. Thank u a&w, I love root beer.

    Breakfast

    This actually used to be Cheesecake Factory, and I was quite disappointed to see the change at the time. But now I don't mind it at all! The service has definitely seen some up and downs here, especially late at night when everybody is so tired, but the food has always been good and the tables clean. A nice alternative to McDonalds and Burger Kings. I love the 24h breakfast, and their cupboard of frosty root beer glasses *almost* makes me forget I dislike that drink (no one will ever convince me it's not liquid toothpaste!!).

    Chedar Bacon with fries

    It is always a treat to be able to go to an A&W store. I ordered chedar bacon burger large with fries. Of course, how do you go to an A&W store and not order root beer. They even have a veggie burger on the menu. All things great. Bon Apetit.

    Burger, Fries, and a Diet Root Beer
    Jim P.

    I don't often go to A&W fast food restaurants but stopped off here for lunch since I was close by and felt like a root beer. The place is accessible outside and if you know where you are going in the underground city, you can get to this place from the McGill metro station without going outside (in case of bad weather). The place has free WiFi although it wasn't working properly for my phone during my visit (after connecting, it tried to load up the browser page which I'm assuming is a terms of usage page but never managed to open it up). If you are paying by credit card, they have an automated terminal that you can use to place your own order. I opted for one of their trios (burger, fries, and a drink). The burgers are okay. I am not crazy about A&W fries. They charge extra for onion rings (as opposed to Burger King and Harvey's which charge the same price for fries and onion rings. For the drink, I had diet A&W root beer which you can't get in any other fast food restaurant. If eating inside, you get the drink if a chilled mug with no ice which is good since most people like a cold drink but don't want the extra ice to water down the drink. Only thing which would make this better is if they allowed for free refills similar to McDonalds and some other fast food restaurants. They do offer the occasional coupons. Without coupons, my trio (which I believe was one of the least expensive trios) came to around $11.32 so a bit more expensive than what I would normally order at McDonalds.

    Beyond burger and fries

    Beyond meat burger is yummy, thanks A&W for the vegetarian option! love the fries too. Leave off the cheese and mayo if you're vegan

    Thus far, I have had inconsistent experiences with this particular A&W. My first visit was unremarkable, and I mean this as a relatively positive thing. It was exactly as I expected, the food tasted like A&W food should and the service was reasonably polite and quick. My visit for breakfast this morning was also satisfactory. The egg on my English muffin tasted very fresh and looked much more natural than the round or square pucks i'v had at other places. The hash brown was a little oily, but not too salty, and the coffee was *ok* (but not great). My interim visit to this location was quite different. The service, although polite and friendly, seemed slower than it should have been. The counter person seemed a little stressed, and they seemed to to be having some trouble communicating in the prep area and pushing out the orders. I also noticed that their pep person did not wear gloves while assembling the order. We also realized once we where 2 blocks away, that the plain burger we ordered was slathered in condiments, despite the prep person being specifically told twice that the burger was to be plain (just the meat and the bun). We turned back to have it replaced. That being said, despite the initial trouble, they apologized, replaced the burger and told my daughter they would give her a free meal next time (although it was a verbal promise... No voucher or anything...)

    Their burgers are delicious! Excellent customer service!! The employees look very happy and are very friendly! I love that they are accommodating to vegetarians too. I personally love their chicken burgers they have much more varieties than other places! This is a go-to place for people around the area! Thank you very much team!

    What is the fuss about? After taking the line for 45 minutes. I get to try this Korean dogs. As I…read moream a pescatarian, I tried the mozzarella dog and vegan dog. They were humongous. My sister was trying the ramen dog and mozzarella/hot dog. I didn't enjoy the line up in the cold, my toes were super frozen. The service is average; they rush you to make your choice. After receiving the corn dogs; you hope to find a warm place to try them. We went inside the metro to eat them. They are delicious, but since it's deep fried, you feel the heaviness of it in your belly. I was happy to try them but the experience to get them and eating them somewhere warm was horrendous.

    These Korean style pogos "Kogos" are delicious and so filling. One is enough to make a meal…read more At the moment there is a limit of purchase of 2 per customers but trust me, that is enough. I went on their second day of being open and for the ramen hot dog and the Gamsung hotdog (mozzarella cheese deep fried with pieces of French fried potatoes on top). Both were delicious but my favourite was definitely the ramen, it was so crunchy. You order on the right hand side of the restaurant and then wait in the line on the left hand side to receive your food (pay attention to your number as they will call it out to let you in the restaurant to pick up). Once you pick up your order you have a choice of 8 sauces. My server put a bit too much so I say less is more when it comes to sauces. They have a menu on the side with their recommendations of sauce to put on which Kogo. You also don't want to overwhelm the Kogo with too much sauce because there's so much to taste already. I put spicy mayo, mayo, and honey mustard on both of my Kogos and it was too much. The sauces were good but it just got too much. If you want to put more than one sauce, ask the server to only put a little. My friend got the volcano with chill sauce and recommends that one. He also got the ramen hot dog with spicy mayo and he said it was a bad pairing, he thought the spicy mayo would've been good on another hot dog. I also got the pineapple juice and it was pretty good! A bit ordinary but good to pair with your meal. Prices are around 4.99-6.99 per Kogo so not cheap but they are loaded so it's worth it. Lines seem long but it goes by quickly.

    I've been to Poulet Rouge a few times now and honestly it's one of those places I keep coming back…read moreto without really planning to. Whenever I don't know what to eat but still want something good (and not too heavy), this is usually it. The chicken is always solid. Juicy, well cooked, and actually seasoned properly, which is not always the case at places like this. You can tell it's marinated and not just grilled plain. I usually get a bowl and load it up with veggies and a sauce or two. The sauces are really what make it for me -- flavorful but not overpowering, and they don't taste artificial. What I like is that you can build the bowl however you want. Some days I go lighter, other days I'm hungry and add more. Portions are decent and I usually feel full after, not stuffed but satisfied. Price feels fair for what you get. The place itself is clean and simple, nothing fancy but comfortable. Staff has been nice every time I've gone. Sometimes it's busy, but they still move pretty fast and don't make you feel rushed or ignored. It's not "fine dining" obviously, but it's reliable. And that matters. If you're looking for something fresh, filling, and easy, Poulet Rouge is a good choice. I'd recommend it, especially if you're tired of greasy fast food.

    Just tried this place on a whim once we arrived to in Montreal after a 6-hour drive. I was honestly…read more**shocked** (in the best way) at how many vegan options they had -- even vegan chicken! it was super delicious! My friend ordered a regular chicken bowl and it was a *huge* portion -- we could barely finish, but it was so tasty we kept wanting "just one more bite." Definitely a spot I'd recommend, especially if you've just arrived in town or don't feel like cooking. Perfect for a quick takeout fix that doesn't feel like a compromise on flavor.

    Date of visit: June 11, 2023…read more The homeless people standing outside should have been a warning; not even they want the food here!
