Right near McGill University, this quaint and cozy pizzeria is a popular BYOB spot, especially for students (remember, the drinking age in Montreal is 18), though it closes by 9pm. The pizza itself is no dainty pie intended for fans of thin crust; it’s thick and doughy, piled high with sauce, cheese, and chunky toppings. A selection of salads and classic Italian subs are also on the menu. Most tantalizing of all is the fact that many of Amelios’s heaping bowls of homemade pasta and satisfying personal pizza pies can be had for under $12.
