BUMP.
Only relevent thread I found on the search...
Me and my girlfriend are thinking about heading down for a weekend in November and were looking for some cool things to do. Were 22/23, enjoy the nightlife, drinking, partying, casino, raves, but during the day just want some fun things to do .. Basically just looking for a trendy young area of Montreal where we can find some cool things to do. I havent been in a few years and really the only thing I remember about the city was all the bars were on crescent street. Also, whatever it is needs to be english speaking, which shouldnt be an issue. Sort of the Queen St W, Toronto, but of Montreal. And also any specific ideas from you guys would be awesome! +K

didn't look too hard did you...

Best bars:
- Dieu du Ciel (my favorite)(laurier + st. urbain) Microbrewery, chill spot, good pint prices and the beer is unbeatable around
- resevoir (st laurent + duluth) - also a microbrewery, but a restaurent
too. If you go for food or beer you will be happy - both are amazing.
Great brunch, great lunch and great dinner. Or great for a pint. Great
spot to take a girl even, my girlfriend and I like to go get pints there
at night.
- La Distillerie (st denis + ontario) - if you mixed drinks this is the
spot to go to. Go at happy hr (i think 4-8ish) for 1/2 price drinks.
Huge drinks, massive massive drink list, and somewhere between a chill
spot and a bumping bar. Sitting down kinda bar. You won't leave sober
- Barmacie (laurier + parc (ish, i forget the exact cross). Fancy cocktails, pretty happening lounge
Those are all good bars. If you want trashy clubs/that kinda scene, just
walk up st. laurent and you'll find anyone. Belmont (mt royale and st
laurent has great music). avoid places that are an obvious tourist trap
Food:
- Schwartzs smoked meat sandwich. a MUST. (st laurent + bagg)
- st viateur bagels (st viateur + parc). best bagels around. bring some
home. it's not sit down. all they sell is bagels + cream cheese.
- romados - Portuguese rotisserie. Absolutely amazing. Get the 1/2
chicken plate, spicy. Big locals spot and you wont find tourists there.
(Rachel + de bullion I believe) kinda a take out place.
- nice sit down resto: les enfants terribles (will need a reserveation).
It's on bernard. Amazing amazing food. fancy place, bring a chick
- Also, Vallier in old montreal (rue mcgill just above notre dame). Great French Bistro
- Steak Frites (there are about 4 in town). Exactly what it sounds. BYO which is always nice.
Where to go: it's gonna be a beautiful day this weekend so walk up the
mountain, head to the cross and check out the views they are stunning.
- walk around the plateau (if you look at a map, that's the area to the
east of Mont Royale. generally bordered by st laurent, parc and
laurier). This is the hipster ish part of town (similar to Brooklyn, but
not as flash of course). Great cafes, bars, pedestrian streets, amazing
food (most of the spots i mentioned are in the plateau)."

Total hipster that answered you up there ^ ... Good suggestions on everything but forgot the clubs... You must hit the clubs on St laurent and on crescent... Check out Muzique, Ballroom, Radio Lounge, 1234, Tokyo, Rouge, 737
