We visited Spain last year & discovered the power sherry & vermouth, & life's been better ever since haha. This place reproduces those memorable nights in Madrid & Cadiz. No terrace which was too bad because I'm a big fan of an icy vermouth & soda on a hot summer evening, but the vibe downstairs definitely made up for it. A very busy place, with a good balance of locals & tourists. The music was fun & played at a level we could speak without shouting. The bartender was really friendly & super knowledgeable, & they even gave us fantastic restaurants recommendations. The conservas menu was super authentic as well. Try the olives, I've only seen olives like this in Spain. The cocktails we tried were all really good as well. Time Flies is a must try.

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.

Yousef was amazing!
The cocktails were delicious, ambiance was great & the music was on point. It was not loud & you can talk to your companions.
I would come back & bring out of towners to discover this gem & feel like a local.

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.
