Atmosphere: 8.5/10
Located in Old Montreal's lively nightlife district, Bisou Bisou is a spacious basement bar with a wide mix of seating options - from bar stools to larger group tables. The vibe is casual but stylish, with playful art featuring alcohol-inspired themes that seem to echo late'80s or early'90s aesthetics. Design details like exposed brick & tiled walls add warmth. Music volume is well-balanced, making it a comfortable place to talk.
Drinks: 8/10
Recommendation: Le Petit Éléphant
The menu leans into lighter spirits & lower ABV cocktails - it's a clear concept that's even mentioned up front. Each drink comes with detailed notes on flavor, ingredients, glassware, & alcohol percentage, which makes it fun & easy to navigate. Flavors are relatively balanced. Above-average glassware, nice coasters, & good presentation round it out.
Service: 7.5/10
Water was served on arrival. The team is friendly & attentive, but the bar feels lightly understaffed for its size - expect some delays on orders, especially when it's busy. Prices are average for Montreal & feel fair for what's offered.View more
This is an INCREDIBLE bar! We came in here just to check it out because it was across the street from our hotel & were blown away by our drinks. We ended up coming every night we were in town. Every cocktail (& mocktail) was incredible & better than any other we had in Montreal. I highly recommend making a stop here if you're nearby or far away. It's worth the trip!View more
Le bar en lui même est très beau & les cocktails sont super bons. On a été super bien servi par Will qui nous a laissé un tas de recommandations pour notre passage à Montréal !
L'ambiance est chill, on s'entend bien parler avec de la musique en fond
Les cocktails m'ont paru un peu chères mais l'expérience au global est top !View more
A fantastic bar! We tried many cocktails from the menu, & every single one was absolutely delicious. We even went back twice during our trip. From now on, every time we visit Montreal, this bar will be a must-stop for us. Highly recommend!View more
The bar is downstairs, nice quiet vibe, Lots of old stone, comfy banquets to sit on. You can hear yourself talk. Very attentive service. The drinks were good, a nice selection, the charcuterie board was fantastic Thank you Grace!View more
I confess I was tempted to rate this place a 4 as the cocktails were kinda there for me, but on the other hand they were hosting a sherry cocktail contest & have a good vermouth program, so who am I to criticize? I guess a warning to the two fisted drinkers out there: this isn't really your bar.View more
We only had some bar snacks. The cheese was excellent though! Great fresh bread from a local coffee shop. The drinks are unique & delicious! Presentation is fun & interesting while not getting in the way of actually enjoying your drink. Fair mid-high end cocktail prices. Bar Tenders are great, knowledgeable & super friendly.View more
A lovely, low key bar with impeccably crafted cocktails, satisfying bites, friendly staff, & relaxing, elevated ambience. I'm so glad I found this place. What luck.View more
Such a cute cocktail bar. I wanted a more chill & curated spot to visit in Old Port & this place looked so cute plus had a great 5 à 7 menu. The cocktails were divine & the service was so friendly. Literally such a cute spot! Super chill & approachable. I loved the menu. So much to choose from!View more

Super cute underground bar! Didn't get a chance to take a picture of their menu but it's very detailed & tells you exactly what you're ordering as well as how strong your drink will be. Definitely a great lowkey bar to check out!View more
An amazing bar in a cute place with wide variety of cocktails.View more
Nice & chic bar in old port area. The bar decorated nicely. The staffs are really friendly, giving us a recommendation of cocktails flavor. We ordered le petit elephant & nouveau depart. We really like the nouveau depart, refreshing, sour & little sweet. Price around 16-18$.View more
As a bar with a focus on Vermouth, Sherry, Amaro, low ABV cocktails, Bisou Bisou executes this concept extremely well. You can definitely tell that a lot of thoughts were put into the drinks. If you're a lover of Vermouth & Sherry, this bar is really on to something. The drinks were innovative & well crafted; the service was amazing; & the atmosphere was quite unique & welcoming. Would absolutely recommend!!!View more
Such a great bar, with amazing cocktails & lovely service. Located in old Montreal, this is definitely a must visit spot. Our server was excellent, & the drinks were made perfectly. Priced were super reasonable. The restaurant/bar was very clean. I'll definitely be back!View more
Très beau bar avec une belle sélection de cocktail & de vermouth! Il y a un petit menu de nourriture à partager. L'ambiance est très agréable & il y a des spéciaux pour les 5 a 7 très intéressant!View more
Really cozy bar on a very beautiful basement. Service was great as well as food & drinks. Perfect for a night out with friends!View more
You might miss the sign, but this cozy, Portuguese tiled bar is downstairs. Given that this is in old port, the prices are very good!!! This is my go-to bar I take my out-of-city friends to.View more
Superb cocktail bar in the Old Port. Super chill & welcoming with excellent service. Their signature drinks are well designed & the menu is great at explaining them. Not too loud, good music. Perfect for a drink, date, or outings with a few friends.View more
An interesting concept bar with spectacular service. The drinks are hit & miss, with some gems & some duds. This is a sherry & vermouth bar, so be prepared for lighter alcohol levels & some funky flavors. It has promise, but needs some tweaking with the cocktail menu. Also, the stairwell mirror one bad fall away from disaster...View more
Cute basement bar with very good vibes, creative & super tasty drinks. The waiter we had was beyond kind - allowing us to sample & explain the choices prior to ordering their Sherry.View more
Bar très cosy, où nous avons pu siroter nos cocktails entre amis. Le serveur William est très agréable & de bons conseils sur nos choix de boissons. Les cocktails sont très bons & raffinés. Nous avons apprécié passé un moment dans ce lieu, nous reviendrons.View more
If you want to be transported to Europe without exchanging air miles welcome to the best bar in old Montreal. Incredible cocktails, natural wine, & snacks that make you feel like you're meandering Barcelona. Bisou is a must for your visit to Montreal.View more
I have just had the most fantastic cocktail made by the owner of this bar when he was in Mexico City at Limantour. As a Negroni drinker, I've always dreamed of having a Negroni that had a slightly more subtle approach to the palette. This drink delivered on all of my desires & dreams. I can't wait to get to Montreal to visit this bar in person because the owner was terrific & made cocktails to match.View more
The only thing you regret in this place is that you can't drink everything they offer. I liked that their cocktails are author's, the guys on the bar are real professionals, they know how to give you an unforgettable drink. Highly recommend this placeView more
Incredible menu. Cocktails beat expectation. Staff is great. Awesome vibe. Very special shout out to Yousef. This gentleman is in contention for the most talented bartender to grace the North American continent. This is not hyperbole. Not only did he make us the best cocktails of our trip, but he provided some excellent recommendations in the city & added to our weekend in a very special way. This is a must visit bar in Montreal & I say that because Yousef works here.View more
Bar is often empty Its in a semi basement not my cup of teaView more
So we initially wanted to go to the cold room but the wait list was 30 min in -20°C so the hostess told us about Bisou Bisou being a sister bar that we could wait while they texted us to let us in. Super cozy vibe, really interesting drinks. We ended up staying at Bisou Bisou as we had more room to drink & chat.View more
