12 yrs girl birthday party in Montreal

[liyasef]

As a 6 grader , my daughter wants so much to make a birthday party to invite her girl friends before they disperse in Secondary schools. I live in a small apartment. Any idea or suggestion of a decent place that is not too expensive. this sooo important as time is running . I'm planning for max 10 girls party , they are children any more , yet I have to plan some age appropriate activities . Thanks for your suggestions

I have been wondering the same thing for my son's class. Ideas we've tossed around, Poutineville, Restaurant Beijing or maybe dimsum at Maison Kam Fung. Chinese restaurants handle groups of this size very well.

burger de ville is a nice and big casual and affordable space for this sort of happening

I would do tea.

I haven't been to London Bus Cafe, but Maeve Haldane liked their "medium tea" and the price is hard to beat.

Or, if budget is not a question, I would go to one of the higher rated (and more expensive) high tea places.

If you are looking into tea, Gryphon D'Or Tea Room on Monklanddoes an amazing afternoon tea.

As for picnic in the park idea, I love grabbing some pies from TA and desserts (either from there or Cocoa Locale) and heading to the mountain. http://ta-pies.com/en

Or, what about dinner, and then my 12 year old cousin's favourite activity, ceramic painting? There's one on St Denis: http://www.leccs.com/montreal/

Pizza... simple, straightforward, and should have enough choice for everyone.

If it's a nice day, you could organize a piknic in a park around it
