Lafayette Hot Dog

Pour de la bonne «mauvaise» bouffe, c’est parfait! Bonne quantitée pour le prix, service toujours sympa. Je recommande!

I live right around the corner of this restaurant. Love the friendly service. The food is what you would expect in this kind of restaurant. Hamburgers, pitas, pizzas, submarines and of course their breakfast! Huge portions for the price. I really like the food there. I pretty much tried it all but my favourite is the chicken pita platter. I always order the double pita so i can have some for later! Lol! My husbands favourite are their pizzas. The breakfast and brunch is also quite good! I recommend this place to all!

Cest tres bon, c’est frais, et les serveurs sont tous sympas.
Il y a malgré tout un petit bémol, certaines banquettes sont tout simplement trop proches des tables !
Sinon, rien a dire !!

This was a great restaurant and the service was cordial. The portion sizes were very generous and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the chicken and butterfly shrimp.

Diner– great omelette & poutine fries.
Came with cole slaw and mixed veggies.
Nice meal.
Crowd was interesting.

Le serveur etait tres disrespectueux. Je me suis lever pour aller dire au serveur que j’étais prêt à payer. Je m’était tromper de serveur mais il m’a crier après en me disant «est ce que je suis ton serveur??» Trois fois avec un attitude et un regard comme si j’étais un moins que rien. Jamais je retournerai à ce restaurant, si vous y allez vous aller être déçu du service attention!!!

Consider this your typical diner with nothing fancy about it. i am a fan of places like this for the simple yet delicious food. Especially nice when you need to cure that hangover. The coffee and food are great for the price. Probably the best inexpensive diner in the area.

My wife and I were in Montréal for the first time. Traffic was a nightmare, the public transportation system wasn’t differently-​abled-​people friendly, and we hadn’t brushed up on our French beforehand so communication was sometimes an issue.
But Lafayette, which happened to be in walking distance of our B&B, was a Godsend. Normally when we travel we don’t visit the same restaurant twice because we want to experience different things. This time we agreed we were getting dinner there on our second night too.
The food was great. I just got poultine, but as far as comfort food goes Quebec has America beat. First night was plain old regular poultine, second night was the Lafayette poultine which was topped with hamburger and onions.
My wife got the chicken macaroni one night (this may have been the Chinese macaroni other reviewers are talking about — the menu was French and I made my orders without knowing 100% what I was getting.) I didn’t think at first it looked that appetizing, but after my wife wasn’t able to finish it and I took care of the rest (in the interest of not wasting food) I conceded that it would be perfectly delicious for whenever I’d need a brief break from poultine.
The service was attentive. When one of the waitresses had very limited English she didn’t act put out by our lack of French. The price was very reasonable.
I’ve had good tasting poultine dishes in British Columbia but Lafayette’s seemed more authentic. Now if only we could take public transportation from Olympia, WA to Montréal, QC so I could try the Italian poultine.

Gotta love me some old fashioned diner food late at night when it’s freezing cold and Paté Chinois is on the daily special. My dining companion devoured the fried calamari and gives it a 7 out of 10 which, all things considered, is high praise. A special note, one of the 2 people sitting next to us asked for very burnt toast. The banter with the waitress was really sweet and they had a good laugh and… he got his very burnt toast! He was tickled pink. The place is so welcoming at 10PM on a cold evening and it’s great to get service with a smile and a meal that’s filling, tasty and really affordable.

Really good «cheap restaurant». Poutine, burgers… I recommend their chinese macaroni. Good breakfasts too… The waiters are really nice and friendly, the owners (greek) are joyful and everybody seems to love their job ! Nice place for a quick and non complicated meal !

The best comfort food I’ve had since like forever. The Smoked Meat Poutine was the star, and the portion was gigantesque. The hot-​dogs had mouth-​watering slaws and pickled onions, and the chicken sandwich was really amazing as well.
The service was really fast, and food came out really quick. The menu selection was huge, and everything seemed so tasty (okay maybe not the «Chinese Macaroni», that looked terrible).
The place was very crowded and very loud, but the atmosphere is great! You feel like a Québécois the moment you enter the restaurant. And when you hear the waitress asks if you want your hot-​dog «steamé» instead of «à la vapeur,» you know you’ve come to the right place.

Pain doré !
J’ai adoré mon brunch du dimanche au Lafayette. Le serveur était super gentil et serviable, mon pain doré était fluffy et léger. On a rempli mon café au moins 4 fois, ce qui m’a plu. Pas trop cher non plus, et beaucoup de choix.
oui !!!

best diner around and its open early and stays open late. The breakfast there was phenomenal! Just like being back in the US… well except that the waiter who spoke french and broken english was from mexico and not Montréal. It is amazing how many people we thought were local that came from somewhere else. Our waiter was one of them. the place was owned by greeks who know how to run diners (most diners in jersey are owned by greeks) The portions were generous and the ingredients fresh. the place was clean and bright and had ‘tude. Love it. I am just sorry we didn’t notice the place when we first arrived cause I would have just eaten there for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!

This is a «go to» for me and my man! The poutine is cheap, big and one of the best we have tried in town. Their pizza is actually really delicious too! The service is fantastic here, always. It’s has a very American diner feel to it.
Good variety, good service, good prices and tasty food!

This is my go-​to place for a nice inexpensive breakfast or a juicy burger. The people are nice, service is fast and the food is good.

This is a real good place to go eat. I love the food over there. The price are a real bargain and their portions are huge! The place isn’t too fancy, but they know the food is more important. Last I was there, the waitress was a real pain, she was slow and messed up my friend order, beside taking 30 minutes to bring us the bill… usually they’re faster, so hopefully it was the exception.

The very best Italian poutine in Montréal ! I kid you not, I have a picture of it hanging on my kitchen wall it is such a thing of beauty.
The regular poutines, the pizzas and the subs are also delish. They make all their sauces from scratch.
The portions are huge and the price is cheap.
Love to watch the crowd that hangs at this place.
Service is always fast and friendly. It’s a pretty big place so there is almost never any wait to be seated. Except during the fireworks shows in June.
Nothing fancy, just good honest eats.

I thought this place was «Restaurant Lafayette” — don’t recall anything about a hotdog. Oh well.
$ 7 for OJ, Coffee, 2 eggs, 2 french toasts, 4 bacon, 2 toast, roasted potatoes, and a fruit salad? Um. Yes please.
Great food, cheap prices, doesn’t look like a secret, but well worth a detour to Papineau Metro for a cheap and filling meal.

This is the temple of cheap lunch! They have good casual food at very cheap price.

A good place to go. A local fixture in the borough.
Opens early for the breakfast. Usually closes at 1 AM.
Has a full meal menu (including soup and desert) where you can eat for 10 – 12 dollars.
