September 19, 2017 at 5:32 pmThank you! Ah foliage – that is another theme!! You’d love this Spanish Club. It’s like an RSL for Spanish people in Montreal. Lots of interesting characters here! You have to pay a yearly membership fee to eat there (or come with friends who are members, like I did). Great sangria and tapas and on a quiet terrace, perfect for a Montreal summer’s night!
