Meet the owner

Situated on The Main, Schwartz’s is one of Montreal’s biggest personalities. This business has provided quality meals and service since 1928 and home is to some of the best smoked meat in North America. Reuben Schwartz, who immigrated from Romania and is the original owner, began the worldwide legend of Schwartz’s during the Depression. After Montreal hosted the 1976 Olympics, business exploded in popularity.

Word of mouth and the Internet allowed Schwartz-mania to spread to all corners of the globe. Known to host locals, tourists and celebrities all at the same table, Schwartz’s helps strangers to become friends by passing the ketchup. The dining area bursts with cultural diversity and the excitement of customers getting into a frenzy for the classic smoked meat sandwich. This deli’s role as Montreal’s own celebrity puts the city on the map in yet another area of expertise.

A Must visit!!

If in Montreal, you have to visit this legendary deli. Everyone talks about it, and it is truly a fun visit. Sit with new people as seating is limited and sample some of the best smoked meat around!

Absolutely the best smoked meat anywhere. I stop here every time I'm in Montreal. I order the medium (with a little fat) and a cherry cola. You can pick up some meat to go next door. It's always a big hit at the office.

Best $10 lunches with delicious value from Montreal spots

Another great Montreal classic that is great for lunch. While it’s true that line-ups are long, it’s sometimes fun to play tourist in your own city and chat with visitors when the reward is a delicious half fat smoked meat sandwich with a side of pickles. For a quicker service, head for the pick-up line.
