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.

I accidentally stumbled into this spot & had the best cocktails of my life. The owner was incredibly nice & wrote down several recommendations for food in the area on our receipt. 10/10
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$.
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.
Wonderful experience chez Bisou Bisou. Alex impressed us all behind the bar & Yousef's extensive knowledge & recommendations were invaluable. Cold room isn't worth the wait with this gem right across the street. Atmosphere felt intimate but not exclusive. I recommend the'The Last Word' & they also make a delightful Espresso Martini. We didn't try the food but cocktails were exceptional. Overall extraordinary experience!!
Great service, they were attentive & quick to our needs. The bartenders were very informed & professional & catered to our specific tastes with excellent recommendations. The titamisu shot was a great recommendation. We did not have food, but the cocktails were very refined. I got the Babylon Flip & the Petit Elephant, both of which were delicious. Pricey, but well worth it for the ambience & service. The venue is underground, similar vibe to a Speakeasy. I would go back anytime
