Notre-Dame Street is a historic east-west street located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It runs parallel to the Saint Lawrence River, from the eastern tip of the island to Lachine 1 2.

One of the oldest streets in Montreal, Notre-Dame was created in 1672. Its extension in 1821 led to the demolition of Montreal's Citadel.

Montreal City Hall, Palais de Justice de Montréal, the Quebec Court of Appeal and the Château Ramezay are located on this street, in Old Montreal. West of Old Montreal, the street is home to the École de technologie supérieure and runs through Montreal's Little Burgundy neighbourhood, historically home to the English-speaking black community.
