A little local advice

If you’re hitting Montreal for the first time and want a solid vegan meal, don’t miss the chance to explore Mile End’s food scene. I’d grab a sandwich from Lola Rosa or a sushi platter from Sushi Momo,they’re places I always recommend to friends. And if you have time, walk down Saint-Laurent Boulevard; just past the main drag you’ll find smaller cafes with creative vegan options. When visiting, take cash or a tap card because some spots don’t take credit cards. Also, check opening hours carefully,weekend brunch spots get busy fast, especially vegan ones. Finally, try to go beyond downtown, where most veg restaurants cluster. Neighborhoods like Verdun and Rosemont have smaller, less touristy gems worth checking out.
