For the purposes of our classification, restaurants where a typical evening meal costs less than $25 CAN per person (not including wine, service or tip) are considered inexpensive. Also included are cafés not serving
full meals (not all of them are open in the evening, however: check the hours to make sure).
- Avesta
— 2077 rue St-Catherine Ouest, (514) 937-0156
Turkish café/restaurant. The front section features a table
for the preparation of gözleme - a traditional Turkish bread.
The daily special (if available) is
a particularly good deal. Otherwise, all items on the menu
are also very reasonably-priced.
At the end of your meal, be sure to try the traditional
Turkish tea (prepared as leaf tea with extra additives).
This tea comes in a very small cup, but is rather strong.
- Café Italia
— 6840 Boulevard St-Laurent, (514) 495-0059
Simple, unpretentious café with excellent coffee
and traditional Italian pastries.
- Café Olimpico
— 124 rue St-Viateur Ouest, (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.
- Green Café - Downtown
— 443 Ave Viger Ouest, (514) 868-0498 A stylish breakfast and lunch spot.
- Le Cartet
— 106 rue McGill, (514) 871-8887
Boutique alimentaire + café.
- Le Roi du Plateau
— 51 Rachel Ouest, (514) 844-8393
Simple family-run restaurant serving authentic Portuguese dishes.
- Nocochi
— 2156 rue Mackay, (514) 989-7514 Nocochi specializes in light breakfast/lunch fare and offers
something unique in addition to its relatively typical menu
of omelettes, sandwiches and salads: the cookies. These
tiny multi-coloured Persian treats can be bought "to go" (by the
box) or consumed on the spot. The cookies, the food, the coffee
(Illy), as well as Nocochi's clean
and airy light-toned
interior design attract an appropriately mixed crowd: museum goers,
old ladies chatting after shopping, visiting Europeans and Concordia
students.
- Olive + Gourmando
— 351 rue St-Paul Ouest, (514) 350-1083 A cafe/bakery very popular for lunch (sometimes it's difficult
to get a seat as there are only about a dozen tables). Open
until 6pm, closed Sun and Mon.
- Titanic
— 445 rue St-Pierre, (514) 849-0894
A semi-basement café serving breakfast and lunch (weekdays only).
- Vasco de Gama
— 1472 Peel Street, (514) 286-2688
- Veritas
— 480 Boulevard St-Laurent, (514) 510-7775 A modern café serving healthy food and first-class coffee.
