Plateau Mont-Royal | The Artistic and Green Heart of Montreal

Located in the heart of Montreal, the Plateau Mont-Royal offers a relaxed and trendy atmosphere in a young, dynamic, and multicultural environment. The area is popular and relatively young, with 40% of its 100,000 or so residents under the age of 35. It is crossed by the Avenue du Mont-Royal where you can find fashionable boutiques, friendly restaurants, microbreweries, and a nice diversity of useful businesses. 

Well located in the center of Montreal, the Plateau is accessible by car but especially by bike or by public transportation which offers a very efficient service. In the heart of the area, you will find Lafontaine Park with its 40 hectares of greenery where you can relax or have a picnic in the summer, or skate and slide in the winter, Laurier Park to the north and Mount Royal Park to the west.

Living on the Plateau means being able to choose to live in one of the beautiful brick plexes with their iconic staircases, a duplex transformed into a cottage or even a condo renovated to make it more modern. It also means being able to enjoy a warm atmosphere in a district where everything is within reach.

On the Plateau, you will enjoy many urban advantages such as public transportation or the proximity of stores, boutiques, restaurants, cafés, and beautiful terraces, while benefiting from the calm of the narrow streets that proudly present a distinct architecture with its colonial and Victorian style houses displaying colorful facades. 

Plateau Mont-Royal is full of treasures that delight both residents and visitors, from gourmet addresses and exceptional viewpoints to convivial places. Among them, L'Express, a classic French bistro, and Café Olimpico, perfect for a coffee with friends. Stella Pizzeria and The Ice House, with its bold dishes, delight those in search of flavors.

For an unparalleled view of Montreal, the Mont-Royal lookout is a must-visit, while La Distillerie offers lively evenings with creative cocktails. Food lovers will find their bliss at Byblos, with its Persian delights, or at L'Oeufrier for a varied brunch.

Sweets take center stage at Point G with exquisite macarons, at Les Chocolats de Chloé, or at Juliette & Chocolat for a chocolatey snack break. Ma Poule Mouillée is the go-to for the best Portuguese chicken in town, and Au Kouign Amann transports you to Brittany with its pastries. Book lovers will not be left out with La Bouquinerie Du Plateau and Librairie Renaud-Bray, true cultural institutions of the neighborhood.

Plateau Mont-Royal alone sums up the Montreal spirit: a mosaic of cultures, flavors, and experiences that make this neighborhood an exceptional place to live.
