About

Bar Bisou Bisou specializes in a curated selection of artisanal charcuterie boards featuring cured meats and handcrafted cheeses sourced from regional producers. The menu focuses on high-quality preserved proteins paired with acidic accompaniments such as pickled vegetables, grainy mustards, and crusty breads. The beverage program emphasizes spirits and cocktail compositions designed to complement the savory profiles of the meat offerings. Exposed brick walls and dim lighting define the interior, creating a focused atmosphere centered on the consumption of small plates. Patrons interact with staff to navigate the distinct textures and curing methods present in the rotating selection of pork products. The establishment maintains a streamlined approach to food service, prioritizing the integrity of its raw ingredients and the precise preparation of its traditional snack-focused culinary program.

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!

Great speak easy bar. Our drinks were great.

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.

I ordered the highball of the month. Don't remember the name exactly but it was something with pineapple🍍. It did taste fruity. Overall the drink was okay. Also ordered the octopus in olive oil. Very oily. My friends ordered the TORTILLA DE PATATAS (Spanish potato omelette). That was quite nice.

⭐ 5/5 - Hidden gem with top-tier cocktails
Such a lovely speakeasy! We were lucky to sit right in front of the bartender & got a full view of her craft - absolutely amazing to watch. Every drink she made was not only beautifully presented but also perfectly balanced & delicious. A must-visit if you appreciate great cocktails & skilled bartending.
