A great example of local-style bagels, which are hand rolled and wood fire baked! As recommended by Travel Channel host, Anthony Bourdain.
Wilensky’s has been a Montreal institution since 1932. The setting, Special sandwich, and old-fashioned soda fountain make it a nostalgic stop in the Mile End area.
Not to be mistaken for the restaurant that goes by the same name, Big in Japan is a dark, mysterious bar dimly lit with candles. They specialize in whisky and also serve Japanese pub fare. Read more.
Happy hour special on Saturday before 7pm is the way to go: $1.50 off regular sized cocktails and $3 off large cocktails. All were delicious and want to go back to try more of the menu.
"Au Pied de Cochon is simply one of my favourite restaurants on the planet - and the Rabelesian Martin Picard one of my favourite chefs." -Anthony Bourdain [Eater 38 Member]
Historic, as a New Yorker I do think this place is a contender to Katz's, or will at least satisfy your smoked meat/pastrami craving while in Montreal, definitely a must-try spot, owner is nice too!
The dudes from Joe Beef smash it with the backyard vibes, dope cocktails and great meats. That roasted pork with the crispy skin
This is definitely a must see in Montreal! They have the best and freshest bagels in town! Fast service and it's very cheap! One bagel is 0,80$ and you could choose different flavours! Just amazing!
There is no getting to the marrow of Montreal's restaurant scene without a thorough introduction to its bellwether bistro. L'Express is all atmosphere and a perfect menu of classics. [Eater 38 Member]

Serving Parlour coffee, an offshoot of Blue Bottle. Friendly and knowledge staff. Get a pour over of one of the single origin coffees. It comes with a free coffee lesson.
Really cosy spot with huge bowls of tea/coffee for your cold winter days and a lovey outdoor patio for summer evenings. Big table with board games for chilling out with friends.
Quebec’s oldest drive-in is known for their orange julep (a secret recipe!) and car shows. As recommended by Travel Channel host, Anthony Bourdain.
Great Turkish coffee! They have great sweet and savory things to go with the coffee. Definitely an authentic addition to the Montreal coffee scene!
When it comes to mixology and fine cocktail-crafting, you have very few options in Montreal. However, Le Mal Necessaire fills that gap with flying colors. Perfect atmosphere for perfect drinks.
Delicious salads! Very fresh and flavourful. The magic bread is like a cheese croissant! A must try !
Bel endroit Pinterest mais menu bar trop court. Peu de viande. Nos barmans avaient l'air off et un peu bête. Assaisonnement off le soir de notre passage. Plats sans plus. Menu dégustation à $125...
Some of the best local cocktails in town. As recommended by Travel Channel host, Anthony Bourdain.
Bílý Kůň has become a great staple bar in Montreal. Its selection of alcohol from all over Europe always makes for some nice, surprising cocktails. Their Absinthe aux pommes is definitely worth it.
Drinks are regularly lit on fire in this otherwise dimly-lit bar that has the feel of an ol’ timey speakeasy. Read more.
Sit at the bar to get tips from the friendly bartenders. Awesome cocktails and an intimate environment.
The capable braintrust behind the wildly successful Burgundy Lion has given Mile Enders a pub of their own. With an ex-Joe Beef and Blackstrap BBQ cook in the kitchen, no less. Read more.
This brasserie artisanale brews up some of the tastiest (and strongest) beers this side of the Pajottenland, and their rustic, industrial interior makes it a cool place to hang out for a night. Read more.
You won’t find this place if you’re not looking for it. When you get there, make your way straight through the bar and refrain from gasping when you discover the amazing, vine-covered outdoor terrace. Read more.
door is at the back, address is 403 st-vincent just right next to boutique walk-in which is 401A st-vincent. ring the bell at the black door (the one with a security cam)
The chalet has a legit fireplace to recline in front of as a break from the cold
If there is only one café to check out in the city it's this one. Live music everyday, great coffee, good food, amazing atmosphere, very nice crew... really, it's the best café I know.
I loved this place. Beer was phenomenal, a true gem. Try the lengendary Peche Mortel (and everything else on the board for that matter).
It’s ice cream served between 2 cakes of meringue – something absolutely unique to Montreal. The ice cream flavors include gingerbread, wild blueberry, Mojito, & foie gras. Macaron's also flavored. Read more.
The place to be in Montreal to be in the know about all EDM up and coming artists! The SAT also hosts various underground art events, check their website!
Le Mal Nécessaire is an underground tiki bar with unique cocktails, hidden away in Montreal's Chinatown. Trendy but super fun. If you're a Fernet lover, you'll enjoy the drink menu here!
Phenomenal menu and cocktails. Easily one of my top 5 bar-restaurants (in the world). Bison carpaccio, and strip steak are unbelievable.
Colin Perry’s ode to his native Kentucky serves up the finger lickin’ goods but beyond the fried chicken (which is the best in the city) you have to admire Triple Crown’s audacity. [Eater 38 Member]
Came late night. So glad it's sharing-plates as I wanted to try everything. The handful of items we did go for were excellent & surprising. I suspect this is one of those places you can't go wrong at.
Institution ! Great bar with ZERO pretentiousness. And of course snacks all round for everybody! One of the last of it's kind I highly recommend!
If you enjoy live jazz ask for a table in the section where the band is located. Reservations recommended.
The birth of Oscar Peterson's jazz career could not have been @ a more jazzy place. Amazing live jazz, gr8 martinis, & astounding decor. Food is basic. Have a martini!
Cute speakeasy-like bar playing some classic jazz and blues, try the duck confit tartiflette and the Bloody Caesar :)
Great cocktails and great food offerings in a casual cafe atmosphere. Definitely fit for foodies!
Excellent bar à vin sur le Plateau! Bonne carte + menu/tapas. Beaucoup de choix de vins rouges/blancs/rosés, mousseux & whisky/spiritueux. Bon service. Un bar à vin de qualité qui s'ajoute à Montréal.
Ouvert depuis le 9 août, Loïc est situé dans l'ancienne Banque Molson à St-Henri. Joli bar moderne, il propose des vins, des cocktails, bières et quelques bouchés. Bel ajout dans le quartier. Bravo !
What can I say - maybe the best little bookstore in Canada with some amazing titles published by their own press. It's a gem.
I had gravlax for brunch. Super good. Loved the latte too. Very friendly and polite staff. Enjoyed my brunch experience a lot. Going there next weekend to try another of their plates.
