La Maison Alcan

The new resto-café AMÉA has opened its doors inside La Maison Alcan in the Golden Square Mile in downtown Montreal. Améa café gourmand is an Italian-inspired Mediterranean-style café that advocates slow living and will inspire customers to enjoy the good things in life and the simple pleasures. It’s a grab-and-go concept where people can enjoy breakfast, lunch or coffee in a soothing oasis away from the hustle and bustle of downtown or take home homemade dishes and authentic pastries to enjoy with family and friends.
This unique Italian-inspired Mediterranean-style café is overseen by the team behind the renowned Sherbrooke Street restaurant Béatrice, including owners Pino Forgione and Max Caprio, and chef Michael Coppa. AMÉA café gourmand also becomes the official caterer for all events at La Maison Alcan, a gathering and eclectic heritage site. Info: www.ameacafe.com.
