The service was top-notch. Our waiter walked my wife & adult daughter through a fantastic vermouth tasting linked to regions in Spain. Amazing cocktails. Cool vibe. Will return.
December 2025: had an off menu creation & it was great, staff was super welcoming & gave me recommendations for an upcoming trip.
August 2025: changed their menu a bit. Hydra & Panier were pretty well balanced, same cool vibe & friendly staff.
September 2024: Watermark was smooth. Friendly, attentive service. Music was disco vibes.
June 2024: Pluto was a great cocktail. The BBtini was smooth. Friendly service from Rob. Great music once again.
July 2023: Friendly service. Great cocktails in the nouveau départ, Babylon slide, & stone flower. Food was delicious & surprisingly filling, got the cheese plate & the Rillette de porc. Nice decor & fun mix of music.
Vibey cocktail bar in the Old Port. Cocktail menu was very descriptive, the charcuterie was delicious & the owner was our server. He was very chill & attentive. Even though it was busy & they were getting ready for an event, there was no pressure to finish up early.
Yousef was an incredible bartender, made some unique cocktails, & was extremely knowledgeable. If you want to try some of the best cocktails in Montreal highly recommend here

Impeccable bar, from the cocktails to the service. The staff are very attentive & it's damn right impressive. This will & should be on the 50 best bars list.
Creative, delicious, high-energy cocktail bar in the heart of the Old Port. The bartenders float easily between French & English, making it a great place for American tourists to visit if you so choose. Cocktails are very innovative & well-balanced, & the food we had that night, the product of a pop-up, was actually one of the best things we had during our time in Montreal. It is a small space but the layout makes it easy to navigate, & actually feels very cozy. The power to the area went out the night we were there & we actually continued to have a great time with the bartenders to the glow of our iPhone lights. Takes a special place & a special crew to do that. Can't wait to return.
Fantastic cocktail bar specializing in low(er) abv drinks. Really delicious, awesome vibe, & great merch. Who knew sherry-based drinks could be so delicious??? Do not miss - a great antidote to all the touristy stuff nearby.

Lovely place for cocktails! We enjoyed the private, quiet atmosphere. Service was wonderful. They were attentive but also friendly & fun to talk to. We had four unique cocktails & the olives & everything was very good. We would definitely go back!
Super cute bar in the Old Port! The staff are always welcoming & kind, the food is super flavourful & good portion sizes for sharing. The cocktails are amazing & always so creative, they are very unique & very tasty.
Our bartender (Yousef) made our evening very enjoyable. very attentive, easy going & knowlegeable.
Ambience has a very chill vibe which we loved. The Coldroom, which I believe is owned by the same company, is nice, but more crowded & cramped. Bisou Bisou is a hidden gem. We felt very welcomed, & was a great way to end our week long vacation to Quebec city & Montreal. Hope to come back. Try the Stone fruit cocktail, & reverse manhattan.
