2. The Moose — The legendary Canadian sports bar

Perfect for: hockey nights, after-work hangouts with fellow expats, and when you just want to hear Quebecois spoken around you.
3. The Great Canadian Pub — Seine views, poutine on the plate
📍 6th arrondissement (facing the Seine) — Facebook

6. Le Québec — A low-key bar in the 6th
📍 6th arrondissement (Luxembourg) Facebook
