Nightlife revival revels

Definitely the leading supper club and top dog of Montreal, Time Supperclub has re-invented itself time and time again by bringing in the brightest stars that come to Montreal. From celebrity DJs and star DJs on the tables (Tommy Lee to Jazzy Jeff), Time Supperclub is a big venue that starts serving dinner around 8 pm and will keep the lights on until about 11:30 pm, which it then turns into a nightclub of pure mayhem. Christina Aguilera recently partied at Time and so did the world-class producer/artist Timbaland. Experience Time the right way, by making dinner reservations for 9:30 pm on a Saturday night and staying till they kick you out on Sunday morning at 3 am.

Located at the street level corner of Hotel Place d’Armes, Suite 701 is another reason why Old Montreal is the newest, hippest party place in town. A restaurant during office hours, Suite 701 turns into a lobby bar at night and gets jumping with a more mature crowd (25 yrs old and up). Opening up their rooftop terrace is the latest for Suite 701, where you can see the whole city from the tip of Old Montreal. Lose or loosen your ties for Casual Tuesdays, starting at 5 pm and rocking to 1 am with DJ Yo-C.

With a strong promotions team, Pub St-James is a guarantee packed house on Saturday nights. Theme nights and cheaper bottle prices makes the Pub a “see and be seen” option without the pretentious eyes of St-Laurent Blvd. Located in Old Montreal, Tuesday night is ladies night where ladies drink for free all night. On Thursday, the pub has an open bar from 5 to 7 pm. With TV screens and an affordable European menu, be sure to grab a bite any day of the week as the kitchen is open from noon to midnight everyday except for Saturday (opens at 5 pm).

Potentially the finest designed bar in the city, the Wunderbar is alphabetically best on Wednesdays. Exclusive crowds and a good mix of younger and older makes the Wunderbar a must for anyone staying at the W hotel or looking for the finer crowds in life. Either way, security is super tight with bouncers not only outside the hotel, but a host inside will check your name on his/her list. Get on that list!

With aquarium-like projections on the wall behind the bar, be sure to grab a bite and drink at U lounge, a local favorite spot to remove the hoopla of Montreal nightlife including stingy bouncers and cover prices. U lounge is a great place to reserve your own party upstairs at the mezzanine level with its gorgeous furniture. The music varies with the crowd yet prices remain reasonable. Apple martinis keep the ladies coming back and they definitely have a pleasurable staff whether you walk in at night or during the day.
