3.00Fun experience but expensive for what you get to sample. They are large portions but not expensive food m. Maybe would’ve been better with more different types of food but smaller samples. We went to a sit down restaurant for poutine but had to buy our own drinks/beers. One of the best things about the tour was just l because of a Mile End festival that happened to be taking place there and provided a lot of the entertaining vibes and atmosphere.
Great walking tour with yummy food

5.00My wife and I have been to Montreal many times over the years, but we’ve never visited this area of town. We love to do food tours when we travel and this one was one of our favorites. The stops included some great food and highlighted the cultural richness of the area. It was a much more ethnically diverse area than we realized and the history of how it’s changed over the years was equally interesting! Great food, a great stroll through some cool neighborhoods and a great education about the richness of Montreal and Quebec in total. Lucas, our guide was so knowledgable, energetic and just a great human being. Get him if you can!
Highly recommended

5.00We had a great time with Georgia as our guide. The food was varied and tasty. Georgia was very informative and explained what we were having and the history of the area and each place as we went along.

5.00The food was delicious (and there was a lot of it). Georgia did a great job taking us around and telling us about the history. We were able to stop for a beer (we paid for that but everything else was included) while we enjoyed poutine. The whole tour was about 2.5 hours. Great way to spend my birthday in Montreal! Best for hungry people that want to experience a variety of Montreal specialties.
Great Food
