Great nightspots include Cafe Campus on Tuesdays and Balroom on Thursdays. You'll find this is the place that HEC Students go to on these nights. A great brunch spot is L'avenue - going there is a must! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Peel Pub on St Cathrine's a great place to go for a few before going out, the best night clubs are mostly on St Laurent. Cafe Campus on a Tuesday night is a student must! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

There is simply too much to list for Montréal. Just simply enjoy. Best places to go out are on the Plateau or in the Village. Forget Downtown for nightlife. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
