The neighborhood is a little off, but don't let that deter you.

The salad was good, pretty typical of a pub. The beer was good also - I wish I'd tried their porter, but I wanted to go outside in the sun. I'd go again if I were in town.
The waitress was not very friendly and everyone looked rushed. Service was good and the food was good - just not excellent. I'd definitely go again if I was in town.

Honestly though, it's a great place to burn some energy while soaking in black lighting. The outside, like many Montreal (Ste Catherine) establishments, doesn't look like much. The inside? Not much either, but the play space feels huge. Seems much larger than most laser tag places.
Watch your 6.

One thing - their OJ is very full of pulp which I don't mind, but my friend did.

Great breakfast place. If you wake up Sunday morning and you're wondering to yourself "how can I get some coffee and food in me to kill the hangover" you can join half of Montreal in going to this eggscellent spot. Ok, that was a horrible painful pun. Be warned, mortal: while eating here you will encounter lots of puns. Prepare yourself.
It really is good.

Hilton Montreal Bonaventure
Category:
Hotels
Pros:
- heated pool (open until 10:30pm)
- on the "Underground City" path, so you don't have to go outside for public transit or get to shopping
- thick walls, couldn't hear anyone else with my door closed
- nice views of either the garden or the city
Cons:
- slow elevators, can be difficult to get one that isn't packed
- Alcatraz feeling, due mostly to the concrete decor in the lobby & halls
- rooms are very spread out
- your car is likely two long elevator rides away
Tip: there is a general store downstairs near the expo rooms, as well as a Subway sandiwch shop & a liquor store across the street in the train station

Very odd place for a hotel. It is the top two floors of an office building. It is indeed right on the Underground which you might have trouble navigating on Sundays. The beds are nothing special, the rooms are okay if you get one that overlooks the city or the pool.
The pool though... the hotel has a heated rooftoop pool that is open year round. It has a small piece that goes into the locker room, so you can get into the pool indoors, then swim outside. This is so that you can go swimming in a 75 degree pool when it is below zero outside, or when there is a blizzard. Even gone swimming in a blizzard? It is very strange.
Wifi in the hotel lobby only. Overpriced for what you get in my opinion.
