Suggested gourmet addresses near UQAM
Foodie suggestions near UQAM
For the start of the school year, we have prepared a list of restaurants, cafes and bars near the various universities in the city. Montreal, a university city par excellence, is ranked among the best student cities in the world for the quality of its education, but also for its incomparable quality of life.
For this edition, let’s go to the campus of the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) in the heart of the Latin Quarter. This neighbourhood is very lively all year long with a multitude of events that contribute to the reputation of the richness of the cultural offer in the metropolis. The lively streets near the Berri-UQAM station are also teeming with restaurants, cafes and bars of all kinds to satisfy the appetite of hungry and thirsty students.
In anticipation of long study sessions and generally limited time to prepare homemade meals, Tastet comes to the rescue! No question of dying of hunger while studying; we give you a little help to broaden your horizons beyond the cafeteria and the various fast food kiosks inside the university. Here are a few suggestions for good places to take a little gourmet break or to get a little caffeine kick to give yourself courage throughout the school year.

Momo par Christian Ventura
Sushi Momo is a staple in town for delicious vegan sushi. The menu evolves over time and according to customer demand. Although all the sushi is unique, the Fuji Flambé, the Oma, the 3 Champions and the Sweet Tofu Momo are among the most popular. The high demand for take-out sushi led the owner to open a take-out counter, just a few steps away from the “Komomo” restaurant address. Sushi Momo has an excellent offer for all sushi lovers – vegan or not.
