If you find yourself in Mile End, you can’t leave without grabbing a Montreal-style bagel.
In contrast to New York’s bagels the Montreal bagel is smaller and denser, with a larger hole, and is always baked in a wood-fired oven. It’s also sweeter as it’s boiled in honey-sweetened water before baking.
Grab one at St-Viateur Bagel (pictured) or Fairmount Bagel a block down. 3/5 #fnoneighborhoodguide #montreal (at St-Viateur Bagel Shop)

We’re very lucky to have several of the city’s best cafes in the Mile End. We’re even luckier to have @cafeneve serving up their brilliant brew in house at our Montreal Atelier (no bias). Grab a coffee, get a a haircut and maybe even leave with some sharp new clothes. 2/5 #fnoneighborhoodguide #montreal (at Frank & Oak Atelier)

We’re officially kicking off our Frank & Oak Neighborhood Guide by exploring the neighborhood we call home: Montreal’s Mile End.
The most recognizable part of Mile End has to be the Church of St. Michael and St. Anthony. Around the turn of the century, Mile End was home to a large Irish population and this Byzantine-styled Catholic church, founded in 1915, was built to support that community. Later, as the Polish population grew, the church merged and brought the two communities together under one roof. Speaking of the roof, the interior of the dome features a beautiful  neo-Renaissance mural of St. Michael.  1/5 #FnONeighborhoodGuide #montreal
