cool bars or cheap interesting restaurants
what kind of food are you looking for? local-style cuisine that isn't poutine? (which, re: poutine - la banquise, but only after you have had a LOT to drink. that shit is absorbant.)
re: bars - are you looking for a microbrewery? something sketchy and sleazy and hidden away? alcoholically, i've been rediscovering the distillery lately, which is often supercrowded but serves colourful drinks in GIGANTIC mason jars.
(thinking it over, my standard haunts aren't places i would recommend to people as "the best that montreal has to offer" - they're just convenient, or socially convenient. hmm.)

"cool cheap restaurants": faux pulled-pork at Le Pick-Up, burger at the Sparrow (lunch only), pain perdu at Lemeac (not cheap - but this is the city's single best $10 dessert omg), DUMPLINGS! at Qin Hua, portuguese chicken at Romodos, pain perdu brunch at Chien Fumant [also not super cheap], ICE CREAM at Bilboquet or Havre Aux Glaces)...
and pastries pastries pastries(eg: kouign d'amman at Kouign D'Amman, hot sesame bagel (no topping required) at St-Viateur Bagel, olive fougasse and canelés at Mamie Clafoutis, brownie at Olive & Gourmando, butter croissant from Paltoquet, and on and on)

There’s one of those 36 Hours In... features in The NY Times today about Montreal. I was just salivating over it.
