How cool is it that a section of the street is consistently closed to cars and vehicle traffic? The section of Montreal Saint Laurent Boulevard (also known as “the Main”) in Montreal is the street food loving, patio chilling, bargain shopping sidewalk sales (or ventes trottoirs) heaven.
When the weather in June is still raining and cold in Vancouver, it is sunny and very much summer in Montreal. Take the Metro to nearby stations of either Station Sherbrooke, Station Berri-UQAM, or Station Mont-Royal. A few minutes walk will land you on the street where beers are cheap and patios abound. I truly love how Montreal embraces patio life. Even random streets like Place d’ Youville in the Finance district will land you a sexy open table with some delicious Cocktails!
Even if you are parched from the sun you can option to sit inside the bar while people watching.
$4 Pinte, $12 Pitchers, avg $5 bottles. It seems it is Happy Hour all hours of the day here. I love this lifestyle!
Meat galore – Hungarian sausages, sauerkraut
Visit the ever so busy Schwartz’s Montreal Hebrew Delicatessen. They have some killer smoked meat that are super tender and juicy!
If eating isn’t your thing, there are plenty of tees on sale and questionable dog grooming for your entertainment!
Mobile UGGS. Enough said. Poor Pooch.
I’m TIRED. Where to go next?? After all this, maybe it`s time to head back to the hotel for a power nap or visit the beautiful McGill University.
