The auberge is the oldest continuous use Inn in North America. That is the history behind it. The more impressive aspect is the beautiful old stone walls, now somewhat combined with a well-done modern bar area. The owners have changed in the last few…More »

They do gorgeous, creative flower arrangements! Delivered on time with great effects. I was pleased with the service, but it certainly helps if you speak french. The results are good. Give them an idea of what flowers you want used and style, modern,…More »

I went here while on vacation since I had some free time and didn't get my hair done at home. I had highlights with a woman going to pharmacy school and my regular hair dresser complimented me 15 weeks later! Yes, this was possibly the best colorist…More »

Despite a little listeria scare (what cheese shop isn't full of bacteria?) this fromagerie keeps me coming back.  The folks behind the counter know what constitutes a great cheese plate. We choose 4 cheeses for a party for 60 people and they were all…More »

My only complaint- the long lines.  Otherwise, this place is perfect. A great stop on your tour de Montreal for bread to take on a bike ride along the lachine canal or a stop for breakfast with coffee and a decadent almond croissant. Really I can't…More »

Sandy at Koket Design is a great designer. She works with you to create personalized, completely unique wedding invitations. Her prices are reasonable. We had a 5 page invite in a sleeve design. She met with us, showed us samples and we chose our…More »

After doing as much internet research as I could stand, I took myself over to Becker's.  I went alone. I don't have a lot of family around and figured my friends aren't really that interested in spending hours devoted to me-time. The main shop at…More »

Josh answered an ad on Craigslist I posted 2 years ago for a wedding photographer. He had the best portfolio then based on his creative approach to taking pictures in a documentary style. He will do some posed shots, but his unique sense of what will…More »
