Bagel Bar

This place is packed. Give yourself plenty of time to sit and wait. The turnover is amazing but that is to be expected from this Quebec "chain". There are restaurants in Montreal, Trois-Riviere and Quebec City.We went old school and ordered a smoke meat platter with fries and coleslaw and a smoke meat poutine.I'm not going to lie, this sandwich is smallish and at $19.95 a bit pricey. The fries were very yummy. The coleslaw was just fine if not a bit sweet.Better to get the smoke meat poutine in our opinion. It was not exactly a typical poutine gravy but one mixed with sweet yellow mustard, tiny bits of pickles and plenty of smoked meat.Service was excellent. It was a winner!

Nice place for pre flight food and drinks. We were sitting at the front in a squishy section (with carry on luggages it was not ideal). Wifey had a burger. It was ok but a bit dry and lacking onion. My flank steak was quite nice while. We had a bottle of Orpailleur, a classic. Very good brownie. Would go again.

What a pleasant surprise Archibald's was especially as it is located in the restricted area of the airport. We were there at the beginning of March and the start of the Quebec March break so it was busy but we were not pushed to eat and go. The waiter was there when we needed him but he did not hover. Food quality is very good, menu was limited, but that is a good thing and there was something that would suit most peoples taste. We also had a chance to have dinner with Ed Broadbent, well not really, but he and his family were at the next table.
