We were debating between this spot and Moe's Delicatessen, but decided to try something new…read moreespecially since this place is related to Smoke Meat Pete. Same kind of setup when you walk in: order at the counter, grab a seat, and they bring your food over. Super easy. Prices are pretty standard for smoked meat sandwiches around $13, and for two of us it came to about $50 (everything is mostly à la carte unless you go for a trio, similar to Pete's). The vibe is great fun decor, loads of Marilyn Monroe, and the staff were really nice and welcoming. Food-wise, everything hit the spot overall and I'd definitely go back. Only thing for me was the poutine -- I wasn't fully sold on the cheese they use. Also noticed the coleslaw portion was a bit small (and I've seen others mention that too). Still, solid West Island spot if you're craving smoked meat and want to switch it up from the usual places.

Montreal is the world capital of smoked meat. No one dares debate this fact. However, even in the…read moresmoked meat capital of the world, there are different grades of smoked meat. You cn settle for low budget diners and have-all restaurants that go cheap and offer Lesters which tastes, feels, and looks like it was injected with formaldehyde or you can experience smoked meat the way it was supposed to be. Montreal offers no shortage of classic smoked meat joints. Delibees is one that really stands out. Leave Schwartzs for the tourists. If you want insanely good meat that doesnt require you to wait an hour in line around the block, then check out this hidden diamond in the rough in the Valois Village in Pointe Claire. This place has two locations connected each other: a dingy dive bar (not the good kind) and the diner side. Food is the same but youre better off entering the deli. This meat is unbelievable: juicy, tender, and full of flavour. Ive yet to have a bad experience at this place. While another unnamed west island smoked meat hub has gotten progressively more expensive over the years with a slight downtrend in quality to accompany it, Delibees has managed to hold its own. Every Montrealer, especially west islanders, owe it to themselves to try this place out.

Local friends brought us here right after our flight to try our first proper smoked meat sandwich…read moreand did not disappoint. Friday evening, it was quite quiet. The decor is very old school diner complete with vinyl booths, stained glass lamps (love!) and lovely service. We ordered the original smoked meat sandwich platter with some shrimp and steak and upgraded to a poutine of course. The sandwich was quite tasty but the steak was a little dry. Not surprising as we didn't come here for the steak. Loved the poutine though. A must try! We also ordered a cheesecake to go on the road with us to share with some friends and OMG is it heavy and dense! True deli cafe style. I love my cheesecake but I couldn't finish my slice sadly.

I recently discovered this place thanks to my wonderful husband.. can't believe he kept this secret from me for so long. I wanted some fresh delicious challah bread/ rolls so he suggested Yagel Bagel.. so I was in agreement and told him to get us there asap. Ambiance: As soon as we arrived, they had about 10 reserved parking spots just for us customers which I found super thoughtful and excellent. We walked in and to my surprise a blast of fresh scent of oven baked bread just hit me and I was blinded with the delicious scent of fresh baked goodies. It was oh so heavenly! Service: super friendly and quick! They make you pick a number at the front door and you wait your turn to get served. It's always busy but the staff is Fast and super attentive. They make sure to get you everything you want in a jiffy. They are always there to please and make you happy after every visit. Product: Wholesome and delicious.. I am amazed of the freshness. This bakery makes amazing homemade bread.. however, their name suggest they are a bagel shop but they don't make it in-house.. they re-sell St-Viateur and Fairmount bagels ahaha it's alright I totally prefer they're amazing Challah rolls anyway.. something about them makes me go back here all the time. I'm now a loyal customer and will totally be back here soon ! Mmmm deeelish totally recommend.

On a recent visit to YUL, I found myself with little time left before my next flight. As I walked through the Concourse not only did I smell but I saw a Lester's Deli stand just before my gate. I decided to order one to wolf down before catching my flight. I ordered the sandwich only with no fries or other sides so I could eat it quickly. The smoked meat sandwich came out hot, with fresh warm bread, and all I needed was a little yellow mustard. It was a very good sandwich and the staff and service were great as well.

The owner is one of the nicest store owners I have met and will always let you taste any of the meats and cheese before you buy.

They also stock many Polish canned foods, cakes, and cookies. If you are passing at lunchtime, drop in and ask her to fix you up with a sandwich.
