7 Of The Best Plateau Cafés To Stop At During Your Long Walks Through Montreal

There's never a bad time for some coffee and exploring.
Contributing Writer

Since it feels like walking is all we can do it's a great excuse to explore one of Montreal's coolest neighbourhoods: the Plateau. And as you get that step count up and the weather starts to go down, you're bound to be in need of a pick-me-up, especially in the coffee category.

Just because it's called the Plateau, doesn't mean it's levelled out on how incredible this neighbourhood is. In fact, it seems like it gets cooler and better every day.

And its cafés are no exception. The Plateau has some unreal spots to grab a cup to help you with your walk.

Or make for the perfect destination if you don't know exactly where you're heading, but are in the mood to get out and see our beautiful city.
