When we checked into our Mile End BnB at the start of our Montreal vacation, we already had a good idea of places we wanted to eat -- The Sparrow was one of them. Unbeknownst to us, our host had filled a chalkboard wall of his kitchen with food recommendations for us to check out -- and The Sparrow was at the top of his list! This place does not fail to live up to either his or our expectations. The food is quality, the drinks are strong and delicious and (for a New Yorker) cheap, and for dessert you absolutely MUST get the cheese plate. That latter indulgence was so good, we came back on the last night of our trip to have it again! A must-visit if you find yourself in the Mile End!
