Things To Do
Schwartz's Deli
For those coming from Jersey, Andrew has agreed that Schwartz's is far better than Katz's Deli in NYC. We recommend the poutine for the full Canadian experience! If you're a big pickles fan like us, we recommend getting it as well!
Camillien-Houde belvedere
Camilien-Houde Belvedere is one of those places in Montreal that just makes you pause for a moment. It sits up on Mount Royal and gives you a beautiful, wide view of the city, especially lovely at sunrise or sunset when everything feels calm and golden.
September Cafe
September Cafe has THE best pancakes with REAL Canadian maple syrup! (Sorry Jersey ppl, your maple syrup is fake)
Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal
A MUST visit in Montreal. The moment you walk in, it honestly takes your breath away. It feels so peaceful and beautiful, like you’ve stepped into something really special. It’s a place we truly think everyone should experience at least once.
Ma Poule Mouillée
HANDS down the best Portuguese chicken poutine you could ever have!!!
Dizz's Bagel & Deli
We still dream of their lox bagel from time to time!
Saint Joseph's Oratory of Mount Royal
Whether you go inside or just take in the view from outside, it’s a place that really makes you slow down and breathe. It's the largest Church in Canada and truly worth visiting!!
La Grande Roue de Montréal
It's such a fun way to see the city from above!!
Montreal Biodome
The Montreal Biodome is really special to us because we actually had one of our first dates there. It’s such a fun place to walk through together, and it just brings back really good memories for us every time we think of it.
Circuit Gilles Villeneuve
One of the coolest spots in Montreal. We’re both F1 fans, and it was actually one of our first dates! We drove on the track, which made it so fun and memorable. You can also bike or just walk it, and it’s such a cool way to experience the city in a different way.
Gibeau Orange Julep
You can't leave without having the poutine there!! Fun fact: this is where Andrew had it for the first time and fell in love with it. Their orange juice is also a staple you can't miss, so keep an eye out for the secret ingredient! We'll give 10 points to whoever from Jersey can guess what it is.
Jardin botanique de Montréal
Such a fun activity for the whole family! You can walk around nature and enjoy the views!
