    Maison de la presse is not quite Mags and Fags (Elgin Street) but it is your best option in this area of downtown for grabbing an American or international newspaper or a harder to find magazine.

    I stopped in here on the weekend to pick up a NYT and browsed the magazines.  They have a large selection of mags and also sell some books.  

    The young man behind the counter was pleasant.  The store was really quiet which was refreshing as I find the other two big magazine stores downtown can often be very busy.  

    I wouldn't go out of my way to grab a paper or magazine here but if you're close by it's a good option.  It's a block away from a Bridgehead and  Second Cup with a Starbucks just a few meters further -- make this your first stop and bring your purchases to one of those fine coffee shops.
