Les Guinguettes de Montréal's first location is officially open next to the Lachine Canal in the Sud-Ouest. 

The huge new terrasse includes a bar and restaurant, a stage, games and lounge chairs where you can just sit and enjoy the view of the downtown skyline. Here's what it's like.

But what might stand out most is the dessert menu: churros, waffles, a "brookie," and cheesecake.

You can also get sangria, margaritas, cucumber collins and mojitos by the pitcher, in addition to single servings of bloody Marys and tequila sunrises.
