10Best's Montréal Shopping
-- Joey Hall, 10Best Travel Editor
Montréal has fantastic shopping. If you're short on time, the best shopping districts and malls are Avenue Laurier Ouest (designer boutiques, gourmet shops), Cours Mont-Royal (upscale designer clothing and accessories), and Ste-Catherine Street (trendy and high-end apparel). Foodies love the city because not only is it well-endowed with top-notch restaurants, it also has numerous gourmet shops and public markets. Marché Jean-Talon has everything in one convenient location: fruits, vegetables, meats, baked goods, spices, chocolates, cheeses, mustards, and more, enough to keep you occupied for at least a couple of hours, if not longer.
