Mile End's restaurants reflect its diversity.
French cuisine is no longer the king here, replaced by a pan-European mix.
In some areas, for example on Avenue du Parc (on the border with the borough of
Outremont), one cuisine (in this particular case,
Greek cuisine)
prevails, but overall it's pretty heterogeneous.
The following are the restaurants in Mile End that we profiled:
- Bu
5245 Boulevard St-Laurent (Mile End), (514) 276-0249
Bu was "inspired by the great wine bars of Europe".
The wine options include the
weekly selection of some 25 wines offered by the glass,
as well as a 500-entry complete wine list.
The kitchen serves Italian cuisine.
- Café Olimpico
124 rue St-Viateur Ouest (Mile End), (514) 495-0746
A bona fide institution in Montreal's coffee scene,
Café Olimpico (also known locally as "Open Da Night" or "Open D") has
been serving what's considered by many to be the best coffee in town
for more than 30 years.
- La Chronique
99 rue Laurier Ouest (Mile End), (514) 271-3095
Eclectic "market cuisine" restaurant;
winner of many gastronomical awards.
- Milos
5357 Avenue du Parc (Mile End), (514) 272-3522
Milos is considered one of the best Greek restaurants in the city.
The accent here is on seafood.
