This is one of my favourite place to bring tourists! They allow you to try any maple products, so it's great if you never tried it before. They have any maple product in the world.
Also, they do the best maple muffin, I'm addicted (please bring me one!!!).

I never actually tried it, but they do a supposedly great "pâté chinois", which is one of the few local meals we have in Québec. It's nothing fancy, just comfort food.

They have a mechanical bull inside! You should spin the wheel of fortune behind the bar or offer it to somebody, it's a great opener if you want to meet new people ;)

It's the place to go to buy wine and liquor. The quality is way better then the wine sold in the groceries. Beer can be found anywhere (SAQ only has imported beer, so if you want local beers, you'd better go in corner stores or grocery stores).
