Trip de bouffe

Ikissed the zaatar and cheese sandwich. Quick, healthy, and delicious option. Here they take card unlike Kawha. I wish they offered lettuce but other than that app in order. Price is accessible and service is top.

Best “quick” food in all of Montreal. Food is offered cafeteria style but it suffers no malaise of quality. Flavours are diverse and nuanced. Staff are kind and knowledgeable. Atmosphere is relaxed and conducive to both a quick bite or sitting and hanging for a while. They also sell their food for home preparation. This place rocks!

A small, tucked-away restaurant with a great vibe — you could tell everything was freshly made. I wasn’t too hungry, so I ordered small portions just to sample a bit of everything. The aroma and presentation of the food were amazing! The person taking my order was attentive and got everything just right. The only thing I would have preferred is for the falafel to be served a bit hotter to bring out its full flavor, but overall, the food quality was excellent. Prices are slightly higher compared to similar places, but the freshness and care in preparation make it feel worth it.

Tasty sandwich at an affordable price. Staff is nice and friendly, they will be happy to take their time and introduce the customers to their best selling sandwiches. The space will probably fit just 4-5 people for dine in so better to do take out.

An excellent spot with a wide variety of food and great service. The chicken was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall, the price-to-quality ratio is good. This cafe holds a special place in our heart - it opened about 12 years ago, during our final year at the nearby Conservatoire, and it quickly became our go-to spot for daily lunches. A truly memorable place 😊

Incredible food! Kids loved the chicken and rice. Everything is exceptional including the dips.

Great selection of hot and cold foods, and frozen meals. The staff were really friendly. Everything looked very yummy. Mid-range prices. You can get a meal with a hot item, rice, a salad, and hummus for $15 A small, nice seating area.

Awesome little spot for Lebanese eats and groceries. The staff here are so helpful, kind, and friendly. Multiple staff members were eager to help me and kind enough to give me the “first time welcome”, walking me through how their shop worked. I ordered at random and everything I had was delicious! You can order things to eat in, to take out, or even take home some of the base ingredients and prepared meals. Seems relatively healthy and high quality ingredients. A gem in Montreal!

Nice little takeout place for a little lunch. I ordered a side of tabbouleh and a delicious MoU Dar Da Ra. It's lentil rice topped with crispy fried onions. The service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. There's not a whole lot of seating... Maybe about a dozen chairs which is why you might want to do a takeout if you're a larger group.

Big fan of this place. The food feels very home made and made from simple, fresh ingredients. The stuffed grape leaves were delicious and a big fan of their tabbouleh (more parsley than bulgar). I found the meatballs were flavorful and pretty dense, yet hearty. Lentils were my favorite. Glad my lovely friend brought me here and it was a good last meal before I left Montreal.

Very good food options for veggie people. Lots of healthy green salads. And hot veggie options. Don't remember the name of mix veggie with rice thing. But the tabouleh salad and bean salad taste really good. Lady behind the counter was very helpful with explaining what's everything. And the restaurant has a vintage kitchen vibe to it with lamps and lights made out of utensils. Very kitschy!

4.5 stars If you like Lebanese food, this place will take care of your cravings. I was spoiled with an abundance of Lebanese treats and everything I tried was amazing: humus, muhamara, kibeh, fatayer, fatouche salad, stuffed vine leafs and their pitas. I would recommend this place whether you are in the plateau or not. Enjoy!

Trip de Bouffe is a Lebanese bakery and grocery store with ready-to-go meals and baked goods. During the COVID period, they have sections A and B for waiting before getting in line-what a great set up! Though my nose tingled from the savory smells of za'atar and freshly-baked manouche, I visited Trip de Bouffe a few weeks ago for the express purpose of ordering maamoul. Once I noticed the baklava, I couldn't resist ordering some, too. After I told the cashier I wanted different types of maamoul, she picked different styles of baklava for me. Definitely come here if you need last-minute meals/snacks! From what I saw, it's debit or cash only. Trip de Bouffe, I will make a trip back one day to try more bouffes!

I'm no connoisseur of Lebanese food, but this place knocked my socks off. The dudes working the place were super helpful and had a slight grunge/punk vibe. The clerk was especially funny. Excellent food at reasonable prices. Will be coming back.

Our favourite spot in the area for a quick Lebanese fix! We usually order an assortment of their appetizers, some Zaatir Pita and their dips for the complete experience. And then some Baklava for dessert! If you order a certain number of appetizers, there's no tax on the total! It's a very cheap spot regardless! The taste and quality of the food are excellent!! Service is prompt, helpful and friendly!! Our total with enough food for 2 people, was $18! Can not recommend it enough!!

Went to this place looking for authentic lahambajin and zaatar. Imagine my disappointment when the pies came out of a plastic bag that was chilling in the display case. WHAT??!! The dough NEEDS to be rolled on the spot and if at least that's not possible at least top it and bake it in a brick oven. Sorry but sticking with Abohadi (on Lincoln st. - previously known as Al Bhagdadi). To all the reviews raving about this place - please come back after you've tried Al Bhagdadi.

As a middle eastern- I love the food here. Get home made Hummus, Kebbeh, stuffed vine leaves, and Labaneh cheese with Zaatar. Have some cold Malhabi for desert. It's fresh, healthy and tasty. A bit too expensive for what it is. It's great for a quick healthy meal on the way or getting some food home to share with friends. Tip: try a dish you are not familliar with, the friendly staff would love to help

I dropped by here today. I've been coming to Trip de Bouffer for the past two years and every single time the service was amazing and the food has been consistently unreal. I'm a bit picky with mMiddle Eastern food since I grew up eating it from the best chef ever: my mom :). But the food here is pretty close to perfect. Recommended: I absolutely love their veggie kebbe, mouhamara, the veggie pizza, chicken rolls (soo good!), and my all time favourite stuffed veggie vine leaves! As for prices, super cheap. The food is so filling. Everything is approximately a $1 and you get a deal if you get 1/2 a dozen etc. nothing expensive, well worth the great quality of food. 10/10!!!!!!!! - @Hanaer

Hungry and anywhere near avenue Mont-Royal? Drop by here for a quick bite or a full meal, you won't leave disappointed. They have so many options of manoushes, all on house-made chewy flatbread. You pick the base type, and can then choose if you want to get it "all dressed" for and extra dollar fifty. It's then (painfully slowly) heated and rolled up, to be eaten like a pita wrap. It's the best, freshest tasting wrap we've ever had. Paul always gets the all dressed spicy chicken and I've tried the kechk (tomato, yogurt, sesame), the veggie, and the za'atar-cheese, all good. I ordered kechk thinking it was going to be strong and interesting tasting, but honestly it was pretty subdued. If you super love them, you can buy packs of 6 (8?) in the fridge to bring home! They also have a fantastic salad bar, and excellent hot meals Don't forget to grab a manoushe pin on the way out!

Being middle eastern myself I have to say this is top notch Arabic food. It feels as if my own grandmother spent all day slaving in the kitchen whenever I eat here. The grape leaves are incredible, especially the vege ones and the kibbeh is scrumptious. I always get their spreads, the mhamara is my personal favourite. The staff, no matter who it is, is always so sweet and hard working. The decor is awesome with hints of Lebanese originals. I truly love this place, it is perfect and I will continue to come here again and again. @cchehade

Loved the checkh el mehche. The eggplant was so soft and juicy, and still in a good shape. It goes really well with rice. The feuillete aux epinards was also really good, but lacked a bit of flavor in my opinion. I like how all the meal is balanced with mainly vegetables and small amount of meat (or not at all for some vege options). The food tastes like healthy home made food, not greasy at all. The small snacks were a bit disappointing. The falafel was too salty...it felt like I bite into a ball of of spices. The cheese sticks and the chicken sticks are the best. The small pizzas were alright. By the way, there is no tax if you buy in dozen and you can mix all the snacks! :) The staffs were friendly and the place seemed really cozy, almost like you walked in someone's home. There was even a video projected into the white wall, which was pretty cool.

This is the place of choice for my partner, to get his fix when he's feeling homesick for Cyprus or Lebanon - that should tell you how authentically delicious Trip de Bouffe is for middle eastern fare. They have a MASSIVE selection of traditional dishes (eat-in or take-away) and each is as wholesomely good as the next. His only complaint? That they make their kefta with ground beef instead of lamb. I'm not complaining though! There are so many tantalizing options that you'll have to visit multiple times just to take it all in, and they are worth the return visits. This weekend, we'll be catering his birthday party with a wide selection of their $1/each snack-sized treats: all manner of pastry bites, sweet and savoury. Yum! The décor here is awesome, with funky handmade chandeliers constructed with colanders (?!) and an odd and amusing selection of old world embroideries and wild animal photos. There are some shelves stocked with choice pre-packaged food stuffs, too, if you feel like making your own inspired nomnoms at home. And, final word: friendly, great service every time! Maybe I get street cred because my manfriend knows the skinny on all the foods, or maybe they're just awesome!

When I stood in the shop and chose from the prepared dishes and salads presented behind the glass counter I was full of hope. We went for a filo bake with spinach and rice and a large bowl with three different salads. I expected oriental spices and intensive herbs but unfortunately the flavors weren't great at all. It's possible that Trip de Bouffe is great at other dishes but I'll probably not come again to risk it.

As I'm walking on st denis hungry :) I saw trip de bouf on the other side of the street it's said Boulangerie libanaise. As soon as I came in in was taking by a beautiful smell that reminded of home, I knew this was going to be an epic food experience and it was. They don't play around here :) it's legit.

Sunday morning "breakfast" including spinach fatayer, kebbes and sambouseks at a newly open Lebanese bakery on the Plateau, Trip de Bouffe. Everything was fresh and tasty. Baklava: light and flaky, right amount of syrup on each layer, sign of freshness

Sometimes you just feel like a hot home-cooked meal. But there is nothing in the fridge or you really can't be stuffed cooking. This would be the moment where you leg it down to Trip de Bouffe. They are serving up hot, ready-to-devour home-cooked meals, as well as salads, sweets, coffee, bread; anything you could ever want really. They also sell refrigerated dishes and salads so if you premeditate getting into the same snitch again you can always grab one of those on your way out to put in the freezer. I wish Trip was a bit closer to my apartment though, it's delicious and inexpensive which makes it a place I could easily wind up at every other day.

Awesome spot to get a quock Lebanese food fix. Highly recommended the yogurt meat balls on rice, as well as the variety of salads including Tabuleh. Very high quality foods and deserts.

So happy to have discovered this place! Middle eastern food lovers rejoice, this is as good as it gets. So many manoush options, sandwiches, salads and desserts. You can eat on site or get takeout and the staff is super friendly. Everything looks so fresh and delicious. Lots of love for this little shop!

I really wanted to like it, based on the reviews, the looks of the food, etc, but I was disappointed. I went for breakfast and got an assortment of savory pastries. The mini zaatar pitas just weren't a satisfying texture, a bit too squishy. The spinach fatayer, the reason I came, were fine, but the dough was just missing some essential part of the flavor. Oh well.

You HAVE to try the regular chicken pizza with garlic sauce! I can't stop ordering it, it's just perfect. Don't add any vegetables for the full experience. The place is super cute and they have other amazing homemade dishes as well :)

If you don't mind hipster vibe, you should check this place out. They have lots of delicious Lebanese snacks that you can order to take away, it will definitely be few of the best snacks you can bring to a party.

This is my favorite place in Montreal and it's super well priced/affordable. Also, as a pescatarian this place is the bees knees. I usually get the basa fish or the moudardara (lentil dish) + the holy guacamole.

Absolutely amazing Lebanese food. We were a little intimidated because there are no menus. You just order what you like from the displays. But the staff are multilingual and ready to answer questions. We got two pitas stuffed with veggies, grape leaves, and a serving of hummus. It came to about $20 and blew our minds.

Food, portions, service, all perfect. Fresh made in-house, welcoming atmosphere and an absolute steal. What more could you want? I tripped into this spot in summer 2016, hooked instantly. I'd make recommendations but everything I've had I've loved. Ok, try everything, there you go. And get a t-short while you're at it. Alone or with a friend, Trip de Bouffe on Mont-Royal is well worth the diversion.

Nom nom nom. Pita made in house - perfect. All salads sampled so far - tasty and beyond fresh. Stuffed vine leaves - in the top 5 ever tasted according to my partner. All stuffed pastries sampled so far amazing! Ah nuts! I have made myself so hungry for these amazing goodies that I have to cut this review short to go out and get some more. So, briefly, pick up your goodies there for your picnic on the mountain or to nosh at home in the depth of winter to remind you of warm Mediterranean breezes. Also, the guys really know their stuff, ask them about their dishes - they're so knowledgeable and friendly it's an added treat. Off I go! (Did I bring enough bags to carry it all home?)

L-O-V-E. I need an option with more than five stars, please! First of all, I was immediately struck by Richie's penetrating blue eyeballs. He has all the girls swooning, I am SURE. Anyway, all lusting aside, this place was an awesome discovery. Located in the heart of the Plateau, TDB offers an awesome array of all things Lebanese, made fresh daily, with what appears to be a lot of love, by a dude called Pops (who is literally, Pops to one of the owners). They have a variety of pre-made items such as marinated turnip (squeal!), important goodies, nuts & spices, and of course, the main attraction: home cooked Lebanese food ranging from humus and chicken to falafel and Lebanese-style pizza (I forget what that's called). The food is delicious. Enough said. They do have a small section if you're in the mood to eat in, but I think it's more of a pick up and go kind of place. As well, if you're having a party and feel too lazy to cook - go see these guys and they'll hook you up. Noms.

This has to be my favourite Lebanese place in Montreal! This is coming from someone who is originally Lebanese and very picky! Simply perfect! Food is so good and you can really taste how it's homemade! I can't wait to go back! Reminds me of home :)

Yum! It's a reasonably priced counter place with a few tables. The staff is super friendly and more than happy to walk you through the different options. Great place for a big meal, a small meal, a savoury or sweet snack, even a nibble. The kibbeh are my personal favourite ($1.25/each, with discount if you get half a dozen or a dozen). There are vegetarian and meat options. They'll heat food up for you if you're having it there.

This place is what i call a lil gem in the city. Its a lebanese Bakery full of home made lebanese/Arab inspired goodies like Tabouleh , baba ganoush, Sambusac , baklava and an assortment of mixed salads, rice and meat dishes. You can also find a variety of nuts , spices , juice, breads, yogourt, syrup drinks ( i hope you guys know of mint syrup or your life is missing something fundamental ) and the thing that i find most exciting : Olive oil - that you can actually sample before buying - offered in regular glass bottles or big metal bottles with a small faucet! + so many more things to discover. An exciting little store for any food lover! This place is perfect to come and pick up a lunch if you work around the mount royal area or pick up some of your favourite lebanese goodies ( i picked up some fresh whole wheat flat bread and humous )...and also just to discover some new flavours!

I was in there recently and I saw one of the people behind the counter connect their finger with their nose, in a sort of secretive way. Probably an automatic reflex for an itchy nose, but seriously? Gross. Not going back. I might not be able to go into any restaurant for a while. Ewww.

I have never felt more threatened by an employee in my entire life. I go to pay for my meal with my debit card, which it clearly states that they take debit cards. The man then says they don't except American debit cards. I made it clear I didn't have any any cash on me and would be willing to leave without the food. he refused to let me leave the restaurant. He then threatened me and made me walk half a mile to an ATM while my boyfriend waited in the restaurant. I felt very scared. I would definitely not recommend this establishment.

Tastes like delicious home cooking every time. The salads I have had: moudardara, hearts of palm, lima bean marinated beets are on point. The hot dishes we always get are tchek (I am sure I have probably misspelled that), chicken and rice are succulent. There are also Lebanese sandwich I dream about on a regular basis is the all-dressed spicy chicken with garlic sauce. Until you have eaten one of these you have simply not lived

What I like to do is buy a bag of pitas, some hummus, some quinoa salad, some pickled turnips, some labneh and some taboule, then just mix all that shit together in 5 sandwiches. Sometimes I get crazy and order the chicken and rice, and pop it in the mix. They also have amazing made to order sandwiches in the back if the former sounds like too much work.

Friendly, welcoming staff made this a wonderful first visit. The food was fresh and tasty. I felt like a newly-discovered Lebanese aunt had invited me into her home. Good food at a very reasonable price.

Once you've eaten the pitas from this place, you'll never want to eat another grocery store pita again. You know they are made without loads of preservatives, because they go stale after only a few days, but with pitas this good its rare they will long enough to get to that point (stick 'em in the freezer if you can't eat them all in a day or two). And a trip to Trip de bouffe means the opportunity to stock up on dips and salads, and that's never a bad thing. I'm in love.

This is one of my favourite take-out places. I usually just grab a few to-go salads (I don't know what they do to the lima beans and that bulgur + tomato -- soooo good!) but their hot meals are really good too. Love that fish and rice combo.

Fresh and tasty Libanese sandwiches, salads, warm dishes, baklava, etc. It's a great place to get a lunch to go (they have pre-packed items if you are in a rush, but it's not that long either for them to prepare you a sandwich). I have always been able to find a place to sit down and eat there, even there are not that many tables. Staff is really nice. It's a spot that I visit on a regular basis, just about every week, and they always have a decent number of customers, which is a good sign, too!

I am an expert at Lebanese food (not at modesty though) and I have to say that I really liked this place. Maybe the second best lebanese food that I ever had in Montreal. However, it is not a restaurant so I would recommend it for take-out. The staff is also very friendly.

My friend bought an assortment of goodies for the superbowl and now I cannot stop thinking about the awesomeness.

We just wonder in during a street fair , great falafel sandwich. Great Middle Eastern pita bread. The best pita bread I ever had, so fresh made that morning I am sure. We wish we bought more food to take home to Vermont. We will definitely go again .

Great little spot. Finally a little takeout Lebanese place in the Plateau. Everything I've had so far was great.

It's like a mini "Adonis" supermarket with more finesse. Beautifully prepared lebanese appetizers and food. I don't see the link between the name of the place and Lebanon... It is confusing but hey surprise! It has baba ganoush and garlic sauce instead of imported ketchup or fancy old dry pasta. Great to have on the Plateau.

Definitely some of the best food served on Mont Royal. The staff is very nice too which is always a plus. Love their meat lasagna, the spaghetti pasta and the salmon pie. They also have these delicious mozzarella and beef sticks for snacks. The prices are great too.

Great little shop filled with delicious food. My girlfriend and I have our lunch there almost every single day.
