A neighbourhood fixture, Le Parsioir is a combo depanneur and cafe. The dep boasts more than 500…read moredifferent beers from Québécois microbreweries. The hired help may or may not know anything about this impressive menu of options, but the manager (owner) can guide you a bit. Otherwise, well, it's a dep with a great location. The cafe offers decent coffee, free wifi, a fair amount of seating, huge windows for great natural light, and entertainment in the form of a steady trickle of neighbourhood characters and Vanier College types. Decor somehow triangulates between Italian nightclub (red and black pleather seating), Québec rustic (a few barrel tables and a fireplace), and high modern industrial (exposed HVAC and lighting). The overall vibe is relaxed and friendly. A great place to grab a coffee on the go or sip a latte and watch the foot traffic.

I went to this SAQ Express in order to pick up something for my friend's birthday party. Since I…read morewasn't familiar with what type of wine he prefers drinking, I opted to buy a gift certificate for him. It is a standard SAQ Express meaning that it doesn't have all the items that a full SAQ will carry but prior to me buying the gift certificate, I did see that it had the items that I would normally buy for myself. The gift certificates are by the cash. I picked up the gift certificate (card) and asked the cashier to put $25 on the card. He gave me a small envelope to hold the card. I paid for the card using my credit card and was on my way. This SAQ Express has a few (I estimate ~5) very small and cramped free parking spaces next to the building. In front of the building (on the street), there is pay parking (using the standard Montreal parking meters). It is less than a 2 minute walk from the Cote Vertu metro station so it is easy to get to this place. It opens late at 11am but closes late as well (10pm). I gave this place 3.5 stars which I've rounded to 4 stars since 0.5 star are not possible and I didn't want to shortchange the business.

They accepted my USA credit card but the only thing I didn't like about this place was that they do not give plastic bags or any bag at all. You have to buy your own.

I hate how in Montreal the SAQ, the alcohol control of Quebec, has the gambit on many alcoholic…read morebeverages. For example, although you can buy bottles of wine in the grocery store, they are generic reds or whites with no year. However, only at the SAQ can you buy good wine. Only at the SAQ can you buy microbrew beer from the US. Only at the SAQ can you buy liquor. Nevertheless, I can't let this bullshit control board cloud the review of the SAQ itself. I like that the SAQ depot exists because the more you buy, the more you save. For instance, if you buy 3 bottles of wine, you save 3%, if you buy 6 bottles you save 10% and if you buy 12 bottles you save 15%. Saving money is always good! While they may not have the best of selections, like other SAQs (e.g. SAQ Selection), they do have a fair representation of each region. Also you can achieve the same savings on liquor, which is nice...you can even mix and match, with 3 bottles of liquor and 9 bottles of wine and still save 15%. IMHO, this is the best place to buy proper alcohol in Quebec at a decent savings.
