Eggspectations

A breakfast chain serving American-style fare as well as eggs Benedict and smoked salmon.
El Zaz Bar

A landmark in Montréal’s Plateau district, the El Zaz Bar hosts musical acts of all stripes. They also have DJs who are up spinning tunes seven nights a week.
Else’s Bar

This is a favored neighborhood bar for musicians, artists and Bohemian types, and it is a relatively quiet perch in the middle of a bustling quarter. Else’s Bar serves simple food too.
Ferme Apicole Intermiel

This farm offers wonderful picnic sites with an abundance of apiary products to taste afterwards, such as honey mead and honey cookies.
Fruits Folies

Sit on the terrace here overlooking rue Saint-Denis and sample delightful crêpes, great sandwiches, strong coffee and excellent service.

Locals flock to this lively bar in the center of Vieux-Montréal, where atmosphere reigns and draft beer is on tap. Moderately priced wines too. There’s also an excellent table d’hôte Italian menu.

One of Canada’s finest eateries, with a courtyard garden and a menu highlighted by oysters and steak.
Il Teatro

Unpretentious elegance and Italian cuisine. Try scampi fritti alle mandole (shrimp with ginger and couscous).
Java U Lounge

Replacing the long-standing jazz club L’Air du Temps, this newly renovated café/restaurant features wonderful panini sandwiches during the day, and turns into a tapas bar at night with live music and comedy.

An authentic Parisian bistro. Try bavette a l’echalotes (shallot steak) and marquise fondante au chocolat (chocolate-lover’s ring).
