If you've ever wanted to step right into a Hallmark movie set, get ready! This cozy Montreal cafe has been transformed into a magical Christmas tavern for winter, and it's so festive you'll feel like you've been transported into a holiday movie.

From November 7 until January 13, Le Petit Dep on St-Laurent Blvd. will be bringing Montrealers festive drinks, delicious eats, and all the cozy winter vibes.

The quaint cafe has pulled out all the stops to turn its space into a winter wonderland, and every inch of it has been decorated with ornaments, wreaths, tinsel and more.

From the moment you step inside, you'll be greeted by the warm glow of candlelight and surrounded by twinkling garlands, decorated trees, and flickering candles on every table.

And the Montreal Christmas Tavern doesn't just look the part; it's serving up nostalgic, holiday-inspired treats too.

There's the ChocoMauve, a rich hot chocolate topped with marshmallows, or the emerald-green Grinch cocktail, which is perfect if things inside get a little too festive for you.

There's also a Quebec-inspired menu debuting just for the holiday season, with pizzas, desserts, and sharing plates that make it easy to cozy up and split your snacks with friends or family.

The Christmas Tavern has extended hours so you can soak in the atmosphere for as long as possible. As of November 7, it's open from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

And if you're planning a special gathering, the Christmas Tavern is also available for private bookings. They're offering customizable packages that includes food and drink, with options for everything from corporate parties to family celebrations.
