food tours to choose from in Montreal, but my personal favourite is <a href=\"https:\/\/localfoodtours.com\/montreal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Local Montreal Food Tours<\/a>. Wear your eating pants!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Montreal is nothing if not a foodie city. Our culinary classics might be of the greasy kind, but that doesn&#8217;t make it&#8217;s all we&#8217;re good at! Montrealers love to treat themselves to a night out and have a good meal. In fact, Montreal technically has more restaurants per capita than New York City!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you&#8217;re into microbreweries, know this: Montrealers like themselves a beer in the evening, and not just any beer. GOOD, craft beer. They take the art of brewing very seriously, and it&#8217;s not a coincidence most brewpubs are continuously packed. If you&#8217;d rather have an expert show you around, there&#8217;s even a <a href=\"https:\/\/montrealcraftbeertours.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Montreal craft beer guided

It\u2019s also possible to go up the Olympic Tower; at 165 metres high with a 45-degree angle, this is the tallest inclined tower in the world and a true architectural masterpiece, built for the 1976 Summer Olympics. The glass-encased funicular brings visitors&nbsp;on a breathtaking two-minute ride&nbsp;to the top of the Tower. This one-of-a-kind funicular can hold up to 50 passengers and is the only one in the world built along a curved structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go up the Mont-Royal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"875\" height=\"583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide-875x583.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide-875x583.jpg 875w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide-180x120.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/things-to-do-in-Montreal-Montreal-travel-guide.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 875px) 100vw, 875px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s probably the best place to start off your journey, really.

Ours are boiled in honey-infused water before they are baked, making them much sweeter than their NYC counterparts. To taste Montreal bagels, you basically have two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>St-Viateur (263 St Viateur Ouest)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fairmount (74 Fairmount Ouest)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These two bagel places are located just a few blocks away from each other, and they\u2019ve been the subject of many debates, disagreements, break-ups, outrages, and family wars. Whatever you do, ask for a bagel fresh out of the oven &#8211; this is when the flavours are the most intense! And if you&#8217;re really into bagels, I mean, REALLY into bagels, you can even book a <a href=\"https:\/\/tidd.ly\/3xQnxaG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bagel
