Tips from the community

When you walk by, you’ll spot a neon-lit XXX sign above the door. That’ll give you a good idea of what you’re in-store for. Cinema L’Amour, one of Canada’s very last big-screen adult movie theaters, has been a staple since it first opened over 30 years ago. While the theater isn’t perfect (sometimes the creep factor is strong, and those original 1914 chairs could use a real good scrub), the cinema is a drug-free, violence-free, sex-positive environment that is much needed and appreciated in Montréal. How to: Okay, so this isn’t a spot for everyone, but if you’re curious, keep these things in mind: each night of the week attracts different clientele (ladies, couples, LGBTQ+, swingers, etc.) Check the website before you pick your night. The theatre also has a VIP section with private booths. Reviews on the booths are mixed, but if you visit with a partner and want some alone time away from the crowd, this is definitely your best bet.

An iconic Montreal spot, Cinema L’amour is a relic of times past. This destination is actually a vintage adult-film cinema but is a spot to see merely for the retro vibes and fashionable merchandise available.
