Deli 365 sits at the crossroads of the Mile End’s shifting identity, run by a team that moved from catering into a full-time deli because they believed the neighbourhood still needed a place built around Montréal comfort food. The menu stretches far beyond the classics—schnitzel, shawarma, General Tao, baked salmon—but the through-line is the same: straightforward cooking shaped by the city’s immigrant traditions. The room pulls a wide mix of regulars, from long-timers looking for a familiar plate to students grabbing something quick between classes. It’s the kind of deli where the past isn’t treated as nostalgia but as a working blueprint, with smoked meat, soups, and hot plates carrying the weight of those earlier kitchens into a very contemporary Mile End.
