What is a good place for a drink and food in Montreal?

Question

We'll be arriving after 10pm in Montreal on a weekday and want to know if there are good places to go with my friends to grab a drink and good food. Something lively and fun.

Answer 1

It depends on which day you will be arriving (on Monday nights many places are closed) and where you will be staying.

Answer 2

You can go to Crescent st.

Or Ste Catherine st.

Or Prince Arthur st.

But it all depends on what part of Montréal, you'll be at.

Answer 3

Pretty much regardless of where you're staying, it will be easy to get around on the Metro.  Last fall, when we were there, we went out fairly late in the evening, headed to Old Montreal and had food and drinks at a random pub.  I never even knew the name of the place but it was good.  You could choose from any number of places in that area...
