About this Neighborhood

This affluent Montreal borough keeps its commercial life to a few storied streets — Van Horne, Bernard, Laurier — while the rest stays residential and green. With 56 restaurants averaging a striking 4.7, 23 grocery options, and 13 parks, it's a neighborhood that rewards slowing down, and its near-perfect 98 walk score means you can do it all on foot. Damas anchors the fine-dining end, Kem CoBa draws the ice-cream pilgrims, and Guillaume covers the daily bread — a lineup that helped earn a 4.8 average across more than 1,700 Yelp reviews. Foursquare taps a rhythm of cafés, bakeries, and the occasional theater or music venue, the kind of low-key cultural texture that suits a place this residential.
