042 AFRO LOUNGE is described as a warm, cozy spot with authentic African vibes and friendly, attentive staff that make guests feel welcome from the moment they arrive, with a vibe that blends relaxed dining with a lively late night scene as the music stays on point; the menu earns praise for spicy, flavorful dishes such as pepper soup and catfish pepper soup, jollof rice with jerk chicken served with plantain and a house salad, suya, and seafood okra, all noted as delicious and satisfying; drinks are enjoyable though some find them pricey, and space can feel tight while the music can be loud for some, but the overall sentiment is that the place offers great food, vibrant atmosphere, and a welcoming, home-like hospitality that invites return visits.
Apparently it's my second time coming after 2years. The pop up Beirut beer is just catchy. Finally met the most amazing Chi. You make the place feel warmer with your friendliness skills. The food was delicious & I ordered jollof rice with jerk chicken & surprisingly it comes with plantain & a house salad. The music was great not too loud.
I'm definitely going to be coming back again & again
I recommend people with good vibes to continue supporting & visiting 042 Lounge

Lovely spot if you're craving authentic African vibes in Montreal, Canada. The pepper soup is rich, spicy, & absolutely delicious-just the way it should be. What really stands out is the excellent customer service with good music: the staff are warm, attentive, & make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. A great place to relax, enjoy good food, & feel at home. Highly recommended!
Place & Service is okay. Nothing to crazy.
Space is tight & music & little too loud for me.
I find the Drinks pricy for me, for what the standard is. but hey what do you expect, It's a club/lounge in downtown MTL after all. So suck it up 😆
