Review Summary

Bar Edicola is widely celebrated as a vibrant, Italian-inspired destination in downtown Montreal that successfully captures the authentic atmosphere of a European cafe, wine bar, and aperitivo spot. Guests frequently praise the high quality of the coffee, expertly crafted cocktails, and delicious small plates like fried artichokes and fresh pasta, often noting that the welcoming service and upbeat music contribute to a joyful, cozy experience. While the venue is noted for being small and occasionally busy, leading to some variability in wait times and service consistency, most visitors find the unique charm, attention to detail, and professional staff to be well worth a visit. It serves as a popular, versatile hub where patrons can transition seamlessly from a morning cappuccino to an evening glass of wine in a refined yet lively setting.

It seems you get much better treatment when you come with a date!
I had a great time during my first visit when accompanied by my date. Dario was great in accommodating us to find a perfect spot at the bar.
However, when visiting with a friend we we offered a less interesting spot by another hostess & the service was really not the same .... we had to wait for the drinks (even reminding the staff of our drinks) for a draft beer & not a cocktail.
If you back , ask for Dario he is a true gentleman.

What an amazing experience. We are so happy that we stopped by. Alyssa (I hope I am spelling her name correctly:) was the sweetest person & made us feel so welcomed. We loved the cocktails (Negroni & Sbagliato) with the snacks they brought with drinks. We highly recommend to try this cute & fun place

Great food & drinks with a refreshing vibe that MTL desperately needed. The service was subpar as the waitress serving us was more interested in socializing with her friends & yelling than taking care of our order & asks that she completely ignored.

The drinks & service were exceptional. The space is a bit small so there is a wait but it's worth it. Hugs thank you to Dario. We can't wait to be back.

Loved the place - very cute atmosphere & overall a great vibe. The only downside was the service. We had one server at the beginning who was super nice & really fun, which made the experience great at first. Later in the evening, we had another server who came across as rude, sarcastic, & a bit dismissive, which unfortunately changed the mood of our night.
We also ordered some pretty common drinks, & although the wait was around 45 minutes to an hour - which can be understandable on a busy night - the response we got when we politely asked about them was disappointing. The server replied,'We're quite busy today,' considering we had already been waiting for quite a while.
Aside from that experience, the place itself was lovely.

Non alcoholic drinks available. Great menu to order from. You can spend lightly on a cheese order or higher on a pasta or a protein meal. The portions are on the lighter side, perfect for a quick lunch. Excellent service!
