514-931-3811 | | | | | Description: The Bar-B-Barn is a great family restaurant that's become a Montréal fixture since it opened its doors in time for Expo '67. They attract a large business clientele for lunch. The menu features three sizes of ribs and barbeque chicken: "whole hawg," "half hawg," and "baby hawg." Great place for that ravenous appetite. This is a Montréal favorite!

There are 20 or so varieties, all baked in a wood-fired oven. Flavors range from plain, sesame seed and onion to pesto-black olive, spelt and chocolate chip. You can also get soft pretzels, matzo bread and bagel chips. All this, 24 hours a day!

514-935-6504 | | | | | Description: With a name like Joe Beef, you might expect the focus here to be squarely on steak. But such is not the case fresh, market cuisine is the specialty. Whatever is best that day at the nearby Atwater Market is what turns up on the menu that night. Thus, the ever-changing chalkboard menu might feature virtually anything, from pan fried skate wing to tripe to seared tuna to rabbit ballotine. There's a raw bar as well, with a great selection of the freshest oysters, clams, lobster. The space is intimate with a rustic-yet-refined ambience, and the expert staff are amicable and well-versed with the kitchen's talents.

514-253-6637 | | | | | Description: High ceilings and brick walls adorned with memorabilia set the scene at this fun, casual eatery. It's great place to grab a bite to eat or to meet friends for a drink. There's plenty of room inside for groups, and the outdoor terrace lets you enjoy the weather during warmer months. The menu features sandwiches, burgers, pizzas and pastas, but they're often more interesting combinations than you might expect. For instance, there's a smoked salmon club, a Key West chicken sandwich, and a grilled vegetable baguette. You'll also find fajitas, rotisserie chicken, and several different steaks.

514-271-0247 | | | | | Description: This Montréal favorite has been serving sandwiches to hungry diners since 1932. The classic sandwich is simple but oh-so-tasty: slices of bologna and salami on a hard-to- categorize bun, with mustard. You can get cheese on that, but otherwise your options are pretty limited. Get a cherry cola or a frappe (egg cream, milkshake) to wash it down. Super fast and cheap, it also happens to be the former hangout of noted author Mordecai Richler.
