The Main's massive Montreal 2024 holiday gift guide: Food & drink

Finding the perfect gift for the person who loves to eat and drink in your life can feel like a tall order. But whether they’re a passionate home cook, budding cocktail connoisseur, or a fan of indulgent desserts, there’s no shortage of options here.

Local creators and artisans are doing it right: Think small-batch preserves that bring a twist to charcuterie boards, handcrafted syrups that elevate cocktails and mocktails, hot sauces that burn so good, or pastries and cakes infused with cultural traditions and premium ingredients. And for those who prefer experiences over things, dining memberships, digital gift cards, or craft beer selections make memorable presents.

Celebrate the joy of sharing good food and drink with thoughtful, flavour-filled gifts that speak to the heart—and the palate.
