Just north of downtown, the Plateau Mont-Royal is home to the city's creative hub. Full of parks, trendy restaurants, cozy cafés, and all kinds of boutiques. The Plateau is full of both family-friendly spots and solo-friendly spots alike.

This neighborhood is great for some of the most famous and oldest Montréal foods, and it's mostly french. you'll find Schwartz smoked meat, St Viateur bagels and La Banquise Poutine there. You will definitely meet someone that visited Montreal at some point and they will ask you if you've been to one of those restaurants.

Around Square Saint-Louis, home to Montreal’s arts community for over a century, wander by a row of colorful buildings with gorgeous staircases. North of that, you’ve got stellar brunch at Le Petit Rustik on Duluth, Portuguese-style charcoal-grilled bird at Romados, and poutine at La Banquise on Rachel, plus uber-cool bars and clubs like Big in Japan and Apt. 200 on Saint-Laurent. Many of Montreal’s best parks are on the Plateau, including La Fontaine, Laurier, and Mont-Royal (known to locals as “the mountain”), and for shopping, there’s Saint-Laurent, Saint-Denis, and Mount Royal streets. And if you want to keep the excitement going, the Plateau is conveniently located near both Old Montreal and the festivals of Quartier des Spectacles.

Most international settlers have heard of "the Plateau". A lot of restaurants, parks, local artisanal shops, and neighbouring neighbourhoods where you can discover the culture scene of Montreal.
