Best place to get beer! OK for wine if the SAQ is closed. It is facing St Laurent metro station so quite convenient when coming home!
This is a corner grocer run by a large grocery store chain, so it's an amazing 'dep' by montreal standards (normally they basically sell beer and chips). Although they only have one type of anything (one brand of peanut butter etc) but it's convenient and they have lots of prepared meals that you can pick up on the way home. I love the salads large enough for a meal for under $10.

Out for drinks
Great small bar, show up early or you'll end up in line. Waiters/bartenders interview you as to your tastes and suggest a drink you've never heard of before that will be delicious in my experience! Modeled after a speakeasy.

Duluth street between St Laurent and St Denis (maybe a bit wider than that) is FULL of bring your own wine restaurants. Really great for a cheap meal with no corking fees. Several dozen restaurants in a short walk...
