22 Really Cheap Montreal Places You Can Go On A “Day Time” Date With Your Special Someone

Among the many awesome things about summer is the opportunity it provides to go on dates during the day. It sounds so simple, but really, think about it - the warm weather allows us to embrace tons of outdoor activities for a date that would otherwise be out of the question.
The great thing about a date in the day time is the effortless, relaxed nature it. You're not pressed for time, you don't have to worry about crazy lines at bars and restaurants, and you can spend hours simply relaxing in a park or on a patio.
Another bonus about day time dates- it's easy to keep them budget-friendly. While evening dinners, shows, or bars can run your wallet dry quickly, the day time offers a plethora of activities that are both fun, and relatively inexpensive. So, grab your significant other and make the most of your day - you deserve to relax and let the hours float by.
