Our Favorite Things To Do

Restaurants

Joe Beef - A Montreal classic. The owners describe the cuisine as “Bocusian-Lyonnaise cuisine du marché (French market cuisine).” In Little Burgundy.

Milos - A Clarke favorite. The best fresh Mediterranean Greek in Montreal. The “Milos Special” is a must!

Damas - The best Syrian food you’ll ever have. Jordan celebrated his McGill graduation here.

Leméac - If you’re coming from out of town and want a classic chic French bistro, this is it. Plus a late-night fixed-price menu & heated patio.

Other amazing spots - Pasta Pooks, Le Serpent, Elena, Gia, Lexpress, Satay Brothers, Vin Mon Lapin, Vin Papillon, Pichai, La Lune, Le Violon

Attractions

St-Viateur Bagel - Montreal has the best bagels. This is where they are. Go here. Open 24h.

Hiking Mount Royal - Located in the centre of the city, Mount Royal is a short hike with a great view of downtown. The lookout is worth the visit.

Atwater Market - Local vendors selling great food. Walk along the Lachine Canal After

The Plateau - The laid-back Plateau area is known as a young, student-friendly neighborhood with streets full of restaurants, bars, shopping and people watching

Coffee & Cafés

A recommendation list from Jordan & Weston wouldn’t be complete without some strong opinions on coffee spots!

Café Olimpico - Founded in 1970, the Café Olimpico is an Italian-Montreal institution. There is one in the Old Port, but the original is 124 Saint Viateur St. West.

September Cafe - A favorite amongst all our friends. Great coffee, sandwiches, and vibes.

Pikolo Espresso Bar - Weston’s opinion: best truly 3rd wave brewers in Montréal.

Beauty’s Luncheonette - The classic Montreal diner since 1942. Great way to cure a hangover - expect a line on weekends!

Mandy’s - Jordan loves their salads

Other Amazing Spots - Fresh Bagels, Arthur’s Nosh Bar, Mckiernan’s for Brunch
