5 must-sees in downtown Montreal

Whether you call Montreal home, or are an admirer, there’s no doubt that this incredible city has a ton to offer! When it comes to exploring downtown Montreal, you may feel like you’ve seen it all – but there’s always more to discover. Don’t miss out – here are 5 must-sees in downtown Montreal.

Crew Collective Cafe

Crew Collective Café is your home away from home. You can find everything you’re looking for in one place here – a cafe, co-working spaces, meeting rooms and an event venue. You don't need a reservation to access it – it’s open to all who want to discover a one-of-a-kind space to dine, drink, work, and meet.

Crew Collective Cafe is located in a stunning heritage building that was once the Royal Bank of Canada. Its workspaces include an open coworking space, modern meeting  and conference rooms, and private offices. If you want to make Crew your office or meeting space, whether that’s one day at a time or every day, they have affordable options for you.

Crescent Street

If you want to experience the best downtown Montreal has to offer, just head straight to Crescent Street. It’s a beautiful street in the heart of the downtown core that’s characterized by stunning Victorian architecture. It’s full of high-end specialty shops like Collezioni di Vittorio Jewelry, haute couture showrooms like Lilia Haute Couture, boutiques like Boutique Tozzi and Fringues and art galleries like La Poubelle Magnifique. You can also visit its many bars like Hurley’s Irish Pub for a drink, go dancing at clubs like Club Electric Avenue and dine at its beloved restaurants like Burger Bar Crescent and Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ. The street is also home to festivals and major events like Formula One throughout the year.

Le Warehouse Montreal

Speaking of Crescent Street, head to 1446 to check out Le Warehouse Montreal. It’s the place in downtown Montreal to find delicious yet affordable food and drinks in an atmosphere that feels like a party. Visit them for a fun lunch, pregame drink or fun cocktail (Ananas Express, Flamant Rose anyone?) or mocktail, or a night on the town. You’ll find budget options for everything from burgers to poke bowls, soft tacos and salads.

Mount Royal

Even if you’re not into hiking, you’ve probably seen Mount Royal. The mighty mountain in the heart of downtown Montreal is hard to miss! It’s a great place to exercise with a view of the city. Hike, run or bike up its trails and visit its beautiful lookouts to enjoy sweeping views of the city from up high. In winter, break out your cross country skis for a whole new way to experience its beauty or rent some skates at Beaver Lake and sip on hot chocolate. If you’re into music, the Tam-tams drumming gathering on weekends will have you grooving to the infectious beat of this incredible city.

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts

If you’re an art lover, The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA) in downtown Montreal is definitely worth a visit or two. The museum acquires, conserves, studies, interprets and presents significant works of art from around the world from every era. Its collection showcases Quebec and Canadian heritage, Indigenous art and international art from a progressive and innovative perspective.
