Absolute incredible hidden gem while in Montreal. One of the best spots we've gone to by far.

Such a great experience! 10/10 would recommend. Such a cute date spot too.

Some things to note: the door is somewhat hidden/unmarked as it is more of a speakeasy. The chairs kinda swivel weirdly & is slightly uncomfortable if youre not at a table & at the long counter. But there is a hook for your purse. Also note that if you go on a nice night &/or late, the line will be long...

The drink menu was not as extensive but I liked the ones I got. Kinda pricey but the music in the background & the whole place was so aesthetic so ur kinda paying for the vibes on top of the drink too which wasnt that bad. & also not as pricey as nyc drinks.

Would recommend to try & also go to the bars along the street too!

Tucked away behind an unmarked door, Big in Japan is an easy-to-miss speakeasy with a relaxed yet upscale vibe. The dim lighting, candlelit tables, & smooth jazz create a cozy atmosphere perfect for a low-key night out.

Service is attentive, the drinks are well-crafted, & the setting feels exclusive without being pretentious. If you're looking for a hidden gem with quality cocktails, Big in Japan is worth a visit.

Very private, well hidden cocktail bar. It's all lightened with candles which gives it a perfect romantical ambiance for date evenings. It is a pleasant experience pushing people to actually talk & get to know better each other. I like their labyrinth table configuration. Good service, prices a bit high for popular cocktails, but your engagement will be remarkable.

This place is seriously a hidden gem! If we hadn't watched a video of someone going inside, as definitely wouldn't have known where to go & just missed it. But this place is a perfect date night vibe. We had such fantastic drinks, I was in total awe of the place the entire time we were there. Honestly didn't want to leave. I got a Momo Max & my husband was very jealous of it haha. He got some a Tokyo Mule & it went down very easy. If you have time to check this place out, you must stop in. It's 100% worth it.

Great hidden bar on Saint-Laurent. I have been here on a couple of occasions, & have always been served well. The drink menu fits a wide array of tastes; whether you like cocktails, or a nice glass of scotch, they'll have you covered. I will definitely be coming back to this establishment again in the future.
