There's nothing quite like summer in the city: gorgeous weather, drinks on the terrasse and seeing the city at its most beautiful. And when you head to a Montreal rooftop terrasse, you get the best of all three. Because after a long winter, we all deserve to take in the beauty that of the season with a drink in hand. The best part is that there's so much to see. Whether it's the river, Old Montreal, or the city, itself, we're never at a loss for amazing sites all over the island. Whenever there's a visitor in town, I always send them straight to a rooftop to take in the views. Everybody knows that if the locals go there, too it must be worth it.
