After a short tour in Germany, two owners have decided to open their own "biergarten" in Montreal, semi-indoor and baptizing it with the name (feminine) of the Berlin Alexanderplatz subway station.

Every day, a small BBQ is organized on the terrace! Between vegetarian hot dog and nachos, everyone is benefiting. Provide between 2 and $ 6 for the food.
