Montreal is cheaper than Paris for eating out. A classic poutine costs about C$12 (€8), and a Montreal-style bagel from St-Viateur is under C$2, less than a croissant in the 11th. A craft beer in a Plateau bar is around C$9 (€6), and a single metro ticket costs C$3.75 (€2.50).
☀️ The Weather
November is the shift into winter. Expect highs of 5-7°C, nights around -2°C and the first snow towards the end of the month. Pack a warm coat and good boots, and use the 33 km underground city when it gets cold.
