A Montreal institution. One of the best if not the Best delly original left .
Reviews / Ratings for Snowdon Déli
I like it lots and it's a great, real deli. I find their smoked meat okay, not world ending. The babka and the ensemble of options though make this a great choice regardless.
My favorite Deli in Montreal! Gotta get the chopped liver!
Great classic deli atmosphere. Wonderful food and people.
ubereated a smoked meat sandwich (medium) and a few other things that made the fries free. The sandwich was smaller and more expensive than lester's say, and I did not see any fat. The free fries were not included and uber will not reimburse a free item. So, they advertise free fries after $50, but whether they include them or not, there are no consequences (except my disappointment)
Probably the best lox bagel I’ve had in Montreal, friendly staff, vibrant atmosphere.. it’s a bit expensive but the bagel was worth it. I’ll be back !
A Montreal institution - always a classic spot for a good smoked meat sandwich.
It is with a heavy heart to have to update my recent experiences at Snowdon Deli. During the first recent lunch visit, I ordered a clubroll with fries and a soft drink. The clubroll was exceedingly dry and the fries were not edible. Prior to this visit I would have described the fries as the very best in all of Montreal. Convinced by friends to return, I ordered a smoked meat sandwich with fries and a cherry coke. The meat in the sandwich was as dry as saw dust, the bread fell apart. The fries were not edible tasting like frozen fries and not like the hand cut fries that used to be unbelievably delicious. When leaving, I asked one of the owners what was going on with the fries. He insisted that nothing had changed. That statement was nowhere near the truth. I then googled seeking other comments and found a significant number of diners who agreed with me on the fries. Whatever is going on, I for one will not return any time soon for a third visit.
2026 January 3★ An old school deli serving smoked brisket and other deli and non deli options. SMOKE MEAT sandwich $15.95 The smoked meat was ok. Typical rye bread with mustard. HOT BRISKET sandwich $15.95 The brisket with the gravy itself isn't bad. Soft. Very tender and easy to eat. DAILY SOUP (pea soup) $7.00 Noodles in. Was ok. Overall. Portions are a bit smaller and considering the price. Understand that beef prices have gone up, but seems a bit expensive for the portions given no other sides are included. Paid Street parking at $3/hr.
Edit.: the girls that serve you are amazing, shout out to Kirsty!!! Came here with my kids to honour my dad, as this was one of our go-to places as a kid. Smoked meat platters and the Club sandwich was delish. The takeout menu is stuff of Jewish childhood dreams, latkes, knishes, party sandwiches and danishes...do yourself a favour and go. You’ll love the old school deli vibe, all the wonderful food and make new memories with your kids.
