Two 24/7 Locations That Never Sleep

When hunger hits at odd hours, Dunn’s Famous has your back. Unlike most restaurants that close their doors past midnight, two of our locations never turn off the lights, serving Montrealers and tourists around the clock.

• Downtown Montreal (1249 Metcalfe Street)

Right in the heart of the city, this flagship location is just steps from nightlife, hotels, Peel Metro, and shopping hubs like Eaton Centre. Whether you’re leaving a concert, grabbing a bite after a night out, or simply craving smoked meat at 3 a.m., the Downtown spot is a true late-night landmark. Its retro diner-style booths, fast service, and classic Montreal vibe make it a favorite for both locals and visitors.

• Greenfield Park (3271 Boulevard Taschereau)

Serving the South Shore community 24/7, this location offers the same iconic menu and warm hospitality. It’s easily accessible with plenty of parking, making it a convenient pit stop for night-shift workers, road trippers, or anyone who refuses to settle for fast food when authentic smoked meat is calling.

These locations are a haven for late-night diners, and you can count on them to satisfy your smoked meat cravings no matter what time it is.
