La Bête à Pain

Copy Link
At Ahuntsic's La Bête à Pain, grab a wedge of deep-dish quiche, studded with lardons, to placate those hangover hunger pangs. And on weekends there's brunch. Marc-André Royal's Instagram previews (see photo) are always highly anticipated.

Le Vieux Vélo

Copy Link
Martin Juneau, chef/owner of Pastaga and Pub Sir Joseph, heartily endorses this breakfast/brunch spot. One Yelper describes Le Vieux Vélo as "DANGEROUSLY AWESOME!"

Maison Publique

Copy Link
Come weekends, many worse for wear cooks in Montreal swear by Derek Dammann's precise, gastropub comfort fare. And so, by the way, does an entire neighbourhood.

L'Avenue

Copy Link
Somewhat iconic and, admittedly, reviled for occasionally exasperating lineups, L'Avenue's long hours and veteran line cooks lure lovers of bacon, burgers, eggs and bottomless coffee.

Mont-Royal Hot Dog

Copy Link
Mont-Royal Hot Dog is a classic Montreal diner with some of the best poutines and greasy spoon breakfast grub in the city.

Beautys Luncheonette

Copy Link
Beautys, a Montreal institution and the home of the famous Special and Mish-Mash, has been on the same former garment district corner since 1942. And the ageless Hymie Sckolnick oversees it all.

Main Deli Steak House

Copy Link
Original Main owner Peter Varvaro died this past August but his legacy endures, most notably in the form of authentic smoked meat (better than Schwartz's some claim) and the best rib steak and liver deal in Montreal. And all available as of 10:00 a.m. every day.

Mon Nan

Copy Link
Dim sum at Mon Nan is chef Antonio Park's "favourite hangover brunch in the city." Oh my shumai.

Mister Steer

Copy Link
More than a few Montreal chefs cited Mister Steer's classic burger as a no-nonsense way to kill a heinous hangover in its tracks.

Cuisine Szechuan

Copy Link
Nobody's doing authentic Szechuan quite like Cuisine Szechuan in Montreal. What that means for the hangover prone is some seriously spicy hot pot goodness.

Pho Lien

Copy Link
Pho Lien, another Antonio Park fave, is a chronic magnet for connoisseurs of Vietnam's restorative national dish.

Satay Brothers

Copy Link
Kevin Tolton, cook at Garde Manger: "For me it's easy. As a resident of Saint-Henri it's Satay Brothers every time. Nothing cures a hangover like a 2:00 p.m. breakfast of Laksa soup (triple X of course), a couple steam buns and a pint! After that I'm ready to get back to work in top shape!"

Green Spot

Copy Link
Adam Aspelund, the chef at Saint-Henri's Ludger, loves the neighbourhood's iconic diner. "It's close to my place and with a grizzly hangover I need that two eggs with smoked meat and cretons."
Montreal lost Tony "Man of Grease" Koulakis earlier this year but, happily, his hallmark ways with the griddle live on in N.D.G.
Antonio Park, who knows a little something about spicy, nourishing hangover cures (see his Vice video with Toronto's Matty Matheson) favours Kagopa's homemade Kimchi soup.
