What to do in Montreal on Christmas Night?

December 6, 2016 4:42 PM

Hello All, My husband and I will be traveling to Montreal for the Christmas Holiday. We will be arriving on Christmas night and leaving New Years Day. As a traveler I tend to want to live as a local when visiting another city/country. And one of my favorite things to do on Christmas Night is drink cheap beers in a dive bar. As such, I was hoping that someone might be able to tell me if there are any good dive bars in Montreal that will be open on Christmas Night that would be good for libations and merriment. We will be staying in the Mile End Neighborhood of Montreal. Thanks and Cheers!

Can't speak to the issue of whether they'll be open on Christmas or not (you'll have to call and find out operating hours), but my daughter recommends La Petite Idee Fixe (in Mile End) or Bifteck (closer to McGill) as dive-y bars in Montreal.
