Since 1929, Chez Ma Tante has been the beating heart of Montreal-Nord’s fast-food culture, serving humble hot dogs and fries with a kind of devotion that borders on religion. What started as a horse-drawn cart, slinging dogs to hungry passersby, evolved into the iconic, neon-lit diner we know today. And while the space grew, the formula stayed blessedly simple: All-beef dogs, crispy fries, poutine, and house-made coleslaw. Whether you’re perched at a picnic table in the summer or grabbing a quick bite from your car, this is the spot for some tradition.⬤
