Although both are under the same roof, they offer two completely different atmospheres. Bird Bar is the only restaurant to combine fried chicken and champagne in Montreal's Griffintown, while Henden is a speakeasy located in the basement. Their chicken is natural, free-range and of the highest quality from the Voltigeurs family farm, raised with love and freedom, which is what you'll find on every plate from the Bird Bar. Note that they have gluten-free options in both individual and family formats. Go all out with the poutine with popcorn chicken, jalapeno and fried onions. Pleasure guaranteed.
