Alright. I love stationery stores as much as the next person. OKAY. I admit that I LOVE stationery…read morestores (probably more so than the average person), and Nota Bene is one of the best. They have an incredible selection of notebooks and notepads from international brands. They do offer fountain pens and inks, but you would probably have better luck with a specialty store such as stylo or wonderpens. The store is a beautiful, and the staff is extremely knowledgeable. I've almost exclusively bought my paper goods and notebooks from Nota Bene over the years and the service has always been impeccable. Their prices are slightly higher than what you might find online, but it's reasonable due to their overhead. This is a great stationery store, and you are sure to find something you like! Pro tip: If you are looking for a GREAT notebook, check out the notebooks by Midori. They are Japanese, fountain pen friendly, and really feel really nice in the hand. It will run you about $15, but it's well worth it!

I visited this lovely little corner shop in the Le Plateau-Mont-Royal neighborhood last Wednesday…read moremorning and it was nice to see they already had regulars sitting and knitting their projects. The shop carries nicer, higher-end yarns. There are a lot of knitted samples to pique your creative interest. I didn't try their tea and pastries, but they have a nice, small selection. I bought a few items that were specific to La Maison Tricotée. The staff was so nice, welcoming, and helpful. I would recommend La Maison Tricotée to knitters, crocheters and yarn lovers. Even if you are not, but need to buy a gift for one, the helpful employees would give you guidance.

I had time to visit one yarn shop on a business trip to Montreal. I couldn't have chosen better and…read moreI wish there were more stars to give. The young lady working that day showed me all around when I asked about local, hand dyed yarns and told me interesting things about each brand. I had a delightful cup of tea and even though it was nearing closing time, I never felt rushed. She even helped me choose a great place to go to dinner and recommended a great bar to visit with a cool atmosphere I loved (Darling bar). But then she really went above and beyond when my uber driver called and she spoke to him for me in French. I ended up needing to request another driver and she offered me to wait inside the store out of the cold rain while he arrived even though the shop was closing. On top of that, I bought beautiful yarn! I am so glad to have things to remember from this shop. Many yarn stores have fabulous yarn but it's customer service like this that makes people fall in love with the store. (The tea and baked goods don't hurt either.) How I wish it was my LYS and that I didn't live hundreds of miles away. I hope I get to visit it again. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and visit this store!

What a cute little shop loved it. I was walking down…read moreWellington and decided hey I've never seen this store before, let's check it out. They have some really cool pieces, glasses, paintings, statues anything vintage pretty much. It's done very beautifully the set up even the sign that's what attracted me to it in the first place. Will definitely be back to check it out with a friend

Most of their stock is vintage pieces so if that is your style you will be in heaven here. Personally that doesn't align with my taste but what I loved was the jewelry selection. If you go in the back they have lots of pretty jewelry from Montreal designers and the prices are very reasonable. I would definitely come back here for that.
