Fun in Montreal, Quebec

1/10/2008 8:38:25 PM

Montreal, Quebec is my favorite North American city.  It's large (with over 2 million people in the Montreal area), very cosmopolitan (almost European-like without the snobbery IMO), and the people there have a very open-minded attitude. 
 
Here are a couple of links that are related to Montreal:

One is just a fun, occasional blog written by some guy that's very enthusiastic about Montreal strip clubs.  The other has a lot of good, raw info about Montreal (especially if you've never been there before).  I wouldn't buy into any of their packages IMO...even if I was a "high-roller".  IMO, you really don't need a "guide" to get the full Montreal experience...strip club-wise or otherwise.  
 
One of the best ways to get some "extra" action while in Montreal is to try out some kind of escort service.  Escorting is actually tolerated quite well by downtown Montreal hotels.  Here's a site that I've seen some pretty good reviews on over the years: 
<a href="http://www.asservissante.com/escort-mont… />
I can't say that I've tried them myself (I have my own personal connections that get me what I need when in town), but you're really not going to find many strip clubs that tolerate "extra" fun in downtown Montreal these days. 
 
The Montreal Escort Review Board is very famous for its reviews of strip clubs, escorts, massage parlors, and "street action", which is technically tolerated in Quebec...just try not to proposition anyone out in the open.

Speaking of massage parlors, you can get some basic info on these in Quebec at this site:

I'm never tried any myself, yet.   <img src="/editor/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif" alt="" />

<a title="Bar Sexe Mania in Montreal, Quebec" href="../d.php?DID=2000"> 
 
Bar Sexe Mania</a>'s website advertises for an infamous topless eatery called the "Resto Les Princesses" at 4970 Hochelaga (at the corner with Rue Viau). Their actual website is: 
http://www.lesprincesses.com/index-en.ht… />
phone #:514-255-0003 and another website at: 
http://ousortir.com/Bars/princesses.html (in French) 
 
I decided to give it a try since I had heard about it before.  It's located about a block South of the Viau Metro station, which is the best station to get off at in order to see much of the Olympic Park as well.  The Montreal Metro has always been very reliable, safe, and pretty cheap when I've used it in the past.  The neighborhood around the Metro station looked to be lower income housing units that were left over from the Olympics a long time ago...a working class neighborhood for sure. 
 
The eatery is a very small, square establishment that has all of the blinds drawn (for obvious reasons).  It turned out that the one waitress that was working on the early Friday night when I stopped by recently was totally nude...she just had on a thin sash around her waist.  The meal options were displayed all in French, but the waitstaff spoke some limited English.  It was very cheap fare...my total bill for a burger, gravy fries, and a soda was around $10 Canadian.  They had a full bar as well, and the bathrooms at the very back of the place were very, very small. 
 
This place basically seemed like a local establishment that had its share of regulars.  There was actually a birthday party going on while I was there for one of the friends of an apparent regular.  The waitress was a tad on the older side, but she had a great body & attitude.  They have some pics of some of the other waitresses on their website.  The do serve breakfast here as well, and it looked like they had their own parking lot next door.  I believe their hours ran from around 5 AM to 7-9 PM daily. 
 
You may see an advertisement on their website (and at their establishment) for a nearby "Bar Sexy Rock", but this appears to be a regular night club and NOT a strip club. 
--------------------------------------- 
And yet more topless/nude fun to be had in Montreal: 
There appear to be a number of these types of places all in the same section of the city, including: 
 
Resto Bistro Les Courtisanes at 2533 Rue Ste-Catherine East (near the corner with Rue Frontenac...514-523-3170), which is open daily from 5:30 AM-7:30 PM. 
http://ousortir.com/Bars/coutisanes.html (in French) 
 
They serve all-day breakfast all-nude apparently here, and they are located South of the Frontenac Metro station (which is kind of a seedy area IMO). 
----------------------------- 
Chez Lidia (or maybe Chez Carole nowadays) Serveuses Super Sexy at 2205 Boulevard Rosemont (at the corner of Avenue des Erables...723-7772), which is open Mon-Sat, 5 AM-8 PM. 
http://ousortir.com/Bars/carole.html (in French) 
 
More full-on nudity here, and they are located well East of the Rosemont Metro station. 
----------------------------- 
Resto Frontenac Serveuse Super Sexy at 2557 Rue Rachel East, near the corner with Rue Frontenac...which is well North of the Frontenac Metro station (again, kind of a seedy area IMO). 
http://ousortir.com/Bars/frontsexy.html (in French) 
----------------------------- 
Brasserie 4040 at 4040 Rue Jean-Talon East, which is just West of Boulevard Pie-IX (Route 125)..."beer with boobs" apparently available here...located well East of the Saint-Michel Metro station. 
----------------------------- 
Lastly, there's a place to get your hair cut from at least partially-nude women (if that's your thing...no thanx for me) at Salon Adorable Sexy at 1959 Rue Jean-Talon East (near Rue Chabot), which is just East of Avenue Papineau (728-8506) & the Fabre Metro station. 
 
 
Have fun in Canada eh...and hope for another surge in the American dollar as well!
