Wilensky’s Light Lunch Inc

Visited on the basis of a Reddit community recommendation and I’m so glad we did. Totally authentic, the owners were so friendly and welcoming.

We tried the Wilensky special, and we tried one of each cheese, both were great. Also the chocolate milk was delicious! Thanks!

Something to note as a tourist, you will need cash!

I love the feeling of being in an old school diner – you just pull up a stool to the bar counter, tell the friendly staff what you’d like and you get it within 5 minutes. Don’t miss out on the handmade sodas as well! Prices are shockingly low and they don’t accept tips which is unique for today’s economy.

How can’t you love an old school sandwich? Everything about this place is awesome, literally everything. The hand made soda’s they make are amazing I got special with cheddar cheese & a pickle & I’m by no means a pickle person.

Man do I hope this place never closes for any sort of reason because I will be back everytime I’m in Montreal.

Oh yeah and I got shirt!

Great old school diner feel. Friendly staff. Lady at the bar gave me a key ring since my Air bnb was falling apart ha!

Great food! Pickles, chocolate soda and the special.

this place is a gem. it’s such a simple sandwich but you can tell it’s been made with such care and authenticity. love that this family owned restaurant has been in existence for so long. also you must try the chocolate soda. they make it from scratch using syrup, milk, and carbonation. when you walk in you feel like you’ve been transported 60 years into the past with a warm fuzzy feeling on the inside. their prices are beyond reasonable too
