Club Mobay

[M&G Montreal]

Winter of 2014, we arrived at the airport to find our flight was delayed 4-5 hours due numerous uber storms in the U.S. and Canada that messed up the planes. We were in the departure lounge with people who had been there for more than 24 hours. We headed to Club Mobay but they politely and apologetically told us they were booked solid and could take no more guests. We were disappointed.

We were also quite impressed that they respected their capacity and ability and didn't try to stretch their resources to make a few extra bucks. Good move.

Winter 2015, we booked for departure - same time of year, and bad weather happens. It was great! I was sort of disappointed we left on time! LOL .. and couldn't further enjoy the atmosphere.

No, it isn't a 5 star restaurant. Didn't expect it. But I did like the fact that all the food was in small portions, so you could eat as little or as much as you wanted/needed, as you wanted and needed. There were 3 lounges - a quiet quiet one; a family one with a nice relax area for Parents, and a great kids play area where the kids could run/play off steam (oh, where were you when my kids were young and we were delayed ..) and a nice "regular" lounge. All had the same food and beverage service. The food was good, nice selection; varied. The staff great!

We would do it again, for sure, for departure.

Have never tried arrival, but, once we've landed, we're there, there's no snowstorm looming, so just wait in line, and enjoy the anticipation! Might do it one day, though.

Certainly recommend it for departure, particularly in winter when who knows what can be happening at home!
