Little Burgundy

Bar Pub Food

Mentioned in: The Best Food & Drink in Griffintown and Little Burgundy

Review Summary

Drinkerie Ste-Cunégonde feels like a cozy bar with a lively crowd where the energy can get loud at times, especially later in the night, and the chicken dish helps lift spirits. The decor includes hip lampshades and pink lighting that adds to the mood. For some, a date night becomes a night out with karaoke thanks to a receptive karaoke host and attentive service from the staff. The drinks are reasonably priced and the crowd is consistently cool, with a wide range of local beers and strong recommendations from the bartenders. Food options are missed by some guests, who note a desire for more substantial fare. The overall impression is friendly, welcoming, and neighborhood oriented, with dependable service and a knack for pairing good drinks with a convivial atmosphere.View restaurant profile

Bistro Tapas Tartare

Mentioned in: 14 Must-try Tapas Restaurants in Montreal

Review Summary

Le Bureau Bar Tapas draws a generally positive mix of impressions, with great food and drinks and a quiet, date friendly atmosphere that invites sharing, an attractive ambience and a delightful patio, plus Sunday jazz evenings that some guests loved. The tapas range features hits like calamari and saganaki and beef tartare, while a few dishes fall short for some readers, such as patatas bravas with a mystery sweet sauce and overcooked chorizo; overall portions are described as substantial and the prices reasonable for the quality. Cocktails are often highlighted as well balanced and well presented, with bartenders who tailor recommendations to tastes, and several reviews note a strong value for the quality. Service is generally praised as friendly and attentive, though one visit mentioned a long wait to settle the bill. The atmosphere and decor receive compliments, and many say they would return for dinner or drinks to enjoy the vibe and come back for more cocktails and tapas.View restaurant profile
