Perched on the eighth floor of Hôtel Place d’Armes, Terrasse Place d’Armes is where Old Montréal’s after-work crowd converges for a drink with a view. Thursdays and Fridays, the 5 à 7 scene is packed—burgers and mushroom ravioli fuel the post-office crowd before they’re joined by a late-night mix of well-dressed regulars sipping raspberry mojitos.
By day, it’s a more leisurely affair, where long lunches stretch over chorizo Caesar salads and cocktails that don’t come cheap but are worth the splurge. The rooftop itself balances elegance with ease, offering one of the best vantage points over the Old Port. Rain in the forecast? No problem—the partially covered terrace keeps the mood intact no matter the weather.
