Killer pitchers and industrial-strength margaritas keep families, downtowners and gay men side by side like a Tequila Sunrise at Vol de Nuit. The resto in itself is not, shall we say, exciting, but the excellent terrace is smooth and low-key.

The St-Laurent crowd that fills the space - a chimney glass of various flavours – brings the patio alive. And stick around, this little St-Laurent and Prince Arthur spot gains a little steam by 3am.
