Great local place well divided in a cozy rustic cabin decor.
I sometimes go there when I want to work on my laptop.
And it's open late at night
Simply have a coffee, or a beer, and lunch.
Great chili :)

Italian cafe right on a corner street. Cool place during summer to stop by. You can order from the outside and have a sit on a bench. It's my favorite one.

Iconic dining in Villeray since the 60s. People say it's the neighborhood's cult brunch restaurant. Perfect for a cheap breakfast! I always order the Benedictines. Always a great service. Also, it seems they serve the best pizza ...

A stop in Quebec culture is never a real one if you don't eat a poutine. Tourists or newcomers often go to the big chains that are supposedly specialized in poutine... They are quickly disappointed. DÉLI PLUS is a little classic fastfood place and they served the best poutine. And guess what? They deliver! Perfect for your hangover or junk food cravings.

Not the best grocery. I prefer little local groceries stores than this place but sometimes it can help cause it's open later at night and it's more like a grocery chain.
