Bar Bello feels like an upbeat Italian neighborhood spot with a warm vibe and a standout cocktail program, offering a refreshed menu with appealing bites like a mortadella hot dog, a memorable Negroni and a wide Amaro selection guided by friendly, knowledgeable staff; the bar consistently delivers good service and a lively atmosphere, though a few visits note occasional inattentiveness or slower pacing at busy times; live music, tasteful decor and a cozy bar area contribute to the overall experience, and guests frequently highlight the friendliness of the team, the quality of the drinks, and the welcoming, easygoing vibe.
We stopped into Bar Bello on a whim & it ended up being one of our favorite stops of the trip. From the moment we walked in, we were loudly greeted, the energy was high, the music was great, & the overall vibe was just fun.
The drinks are super interesting & creative, which made it fun to try things we normally wouldn't order. Our bartender, Moreno, went above & beyond. He celebrated our recent engagement with us & even gave us his personal list of recommendations around Montreal.
We were so glad we stumbled in & will absolutely be back next time we're in the city.
Very pleasant staff! Great drinks & atmosphere. From the music to the decor & lighting, we were very happy with our choice!!! Also photo was taken around 4:30pm, but I have no doubt it'll get packed
2026: service was much better this time, our female server was super attentive. I enjoyed the Liguria-inspired coffee cocktail.
2025: Live music & decor were fun.
Had the Ossiola sour (nicely presented) & the Tiramisu cocktail. Both were alright.
Service was friendly but inattentive, we sat down & no one would look our way for twenty minutes so we went up to the bar. If it's just that type of place, just let people know when they come in. Once we ordered, we got our drinks at the table within good time.
Our servers made the experience 10/10. Didn't catch their names but they were awesome. Highly recommend if you're looking to grab a few drinks/appetizers.
Stopped in to have drinks to celebrate my fiancé's birthday & sat at the bar. Thank you to Ethan & his colleagues for the lovely drinks & for making the evening extra special.

We just stopped by on a whim & were extremely happy we did. Bar bello is great & welcoming with personnality & an attention to details that really makes the drinks stand out! Frozen glassware, precise pours, skillfull bartenders with a very nice vibe, italian classics with popping taste & even their own negroni distributor which is super cool. Can't wait to go back.
Came here with family & friends for a few drinks. It was our first time visiting Bar Bello & we enjoyed ourselves. The cocktails are pretty good although I did find one of them a little watered down however it was still okay.
The atmosphere was really nice! The DJ was playing classic 70s to 90s music all on what looked like original records which you can tell when hearing the vintage sound quality.

One of the best bars in Montreal, now with a new menu! I'm still to fully try the new menu but in the 6M+ of coming to Bar Bello, there isn't a drink or taste their mixologists can't make!
Their staff is lovely, creative & knowledgeable on their alcohols & crafting the perfect cocktail. Note their happy hour from 4-7PM everyday for classic aperitivos
This place was exactly what I wanted on a Thursday night, a good strong drink that I can enjoy in this Montreal winter weather. Arnaud & Moreno (I hope I spelled it correctly) went above & beyond. Salud from Fort Worth, Texas!
Service was fabulous, & the negroni was delicious. I had the coffee flavored one from the machine. Fun way to get a drink. We didn't order food. We just had bar snacks.
