There’s no shortage of coffee shops here to awaken your inner sunrise squirrel. Make a pit stop at the tiny Café 8 oz. on St Hubert, or at Cafellini (founded by a mother-son duo in 2006), or at the aptly named Pista Café. 

You can even check out Art Public Montréal’s “street art” trail. Keep your eyes peeled, this neighbourhood is alive with colour. 

If your inner sunrise squirrel is really more of a night owl, it might enjoy a quick pint at a local microbrewery. If that’s the case, hop off at the Isle de Garde patio.
