Eva B is less a boutique than a self-contained world—a maximalist mashup of vintage store, café, costume rental house, and performance venue that’s been absorbing Montreal’s energy since the late ’80s. Step through its graffiti-splattered facade on Saint-Laurent and you’ll find a sprawling, two-floor labyrinth of clothes and curiosities, from velvet dresses and retro denim to carnival masks and patched overalls. The main floor is a riot of textures and eras; upstairs leans more modern and budget-friendly, with items often marked at just a few bucks. Beyond the racks, there’s a small bistro slinging vegetarian sandwiches, $1 espressos, and smoothies, plus a backyard terrasse and event stage. It’s chaotic, theatrical, and unapologetically grungy, drawing everyone from curious tourists to local lifers and stylists on the hunt. Bring clothes to swap, browse with patience, and don’t expect a polished experience—Eva B thrives on entropy, not order.
