5 reasons to love Griffintown
One of the most prominent neighbourhoods in
the city in recent years, Griffintown has established itself as the ideal place
to live for urban professionals looking for a combination of culture,
gastronomy, trendy boutiques, greenery and access to public transport. Today,
we would like to introduce you to local favourites and trendy and creative
spots that make up Montreal’s iconic laid-back vibe.
1. Steaming hot coffee shops
Café Bodega Mtl -
Recently installed on the ground floor of St Ann Apartments,
a rental project that offers condos for rent in Griffintown, Bodega welcomes
you to a vibrant environment, where 90s pop culture seems to blend in nicely
with New York street spirit. It's time to discover the delicious menu featuring
sandwiches, snacks and specialty coffees.
Maman Montreal -
Much more than a café, Maman is a unique
gastronomic destination for lunch. Born in the heart of SoHo in New York, the
concept is poetic and romantic, and the cuisine stands out for its freshness
and the quality of its products. On top of serving heavenly coffee, the
sophisticated design is sooooo Instagrammable!
September Café -
One of the mythical addresses of the entire
Sud-Ouest borough, September Café brings a surfer vibe. It’s a popular place to
work and enjoy one of the best coffees in Montreal. If you’re looking for a
snack, September Café offers tasty fresh dishes like a chia bowl, avocado
toast, breakfast sandwiches, and much more.
Café Saint-Henri -
Who doesn’t know this emblematic place? If
the address is slightly off-centre from the heart of Griffintown, it is well
worth the detour, on foot or by bike, to appreciate the divine scents of
coffee.
