best place to play chess in Montreal?

I'm in Montreal for a visit and was sad to see that Cafe Pi has (temporarily) closed.

Where are the regular blitz players gathering to play now?

Hello, I'm from Montréal, I know few of my friends go to play in Longueuil on the south shore, but except for the Cafe Pi, I don't really know where to play in Montréal. Maybe Google can help you... But I'm interrested to see the other people answers

I started a Montreal chess meetup group intended for avid chess players who play on Lichess or Chess.com or have a CFA rating. Please join. If we get enough players we can start to hold regular meetups, and people can message the group to find people who want to play locally.
