Mina's Guidebook

The 144 bus that passes in front of this apartment will take you from one end of the city to the other. Take this bus from St. Denis where there are many great restaurants and cafes, all the way to Atwater where Atwater Market and the big shopping mall Place Alexis Nihon is located. The 144 bus stops at the Sherbrooke station on the Orange metro line, which gives you quick access to the metro network. The 144 bus also stops at Atwater metro station on the Green line. What’s even better is that you can walk down Peel street to Maisonneuve to have fast access to the Green metro line in 5 min!

Montreal has the most number of restaurants per capita in North America; more than NY or LA! So you are guaranteed to have an incredible culinary experience here. Always make a reservation; walk-in to restaurants is tough to do and you will be asked to wait for an hour at least unless you’re going at a random time during the day. So, reserve, reserve, reserve! Especially for dinner. Many brunch/breakfast places don’t take reservations so you need to go early and grab a table! That’s the biggest exception to the rule.
