Over the course of the last year, many small businesses have been forced to get creative and to do some out-of-the-box thinking to be able to carry on throughout the pandemic. From curbside pickups, to mini markets, and more - we’ve seen businesses adapt and perform in unthinkable ways… and Montreal’s Pub Burgundy Lion is no exception.
Located in the heart of Little Burgundy, Burgundy Lion is launching one of their newest services to kick off the summer season: “Pub on Wheels”. Starting May 10th, you can now have food and drinks delivered right to your picnic blanket alongside the Lachine Canal by bike from a Burgundy Lion staff member!
