Review Summary

Bar Edicola has quickly established itself as a vibrant, Italian-inspired destination in downtown Montreal, celebrated for its cozy, refined atmosphere and authentic European feel. Many visitors praise the establishment for its exceptional coffee, well-crafted cocktails, and high-quality small bites, such as the fried artichokes and fresh bruschetta. While most guests highlight the warm, attentive hospitality of the staff, some feedback notes occasional inconsistencies in service speed and pricing concerns regarding portion sizes. Despite the compact size of the space, which can lead to wait times, the majority of patrons find the experience worth the visit and appreciate the unique blend of a morning cafe and evening wine bar.

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

I stopped by Bar Edicola for lunch & found it to be a mixed experience. The space is small, with limited seating, so eating at the counter felt a bit cramped, & the noise level was higher than I would have liked. The food was perfectly suited to a casual lunch, but overall I found it fairly average rather than memorable. Worth a visit if you're in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

We stopped by for a quick cocktail one evening & learned that they also habe morning coffee bar service, so we went back in the morning for a cafè & cornetto.

Cocktails were very good, perfectly mixed at a good price. We had cappuccinos with 3 corenttos in the morning (apricot, Nutella & butter); coffee was made perfectly & corentto were fresh from the oven.

Seating area is small, but even when it was busy you can have a conversation. I would not recommend going with more than 3 or 4 people though, given the shape of the space (a rather narrow rectangle).

The service is very friendly & just attentive enough; I didn't feel hurried but felt we were given time & space to relax & chat.

This has been commented on before, but it certainly has an Italian bar vibe like you get in Roma or Napoli. Would highly recommend this bar!

We stopped in for some food after shopping, & everyone was super happy we did. We tried almost all of their small plates, & everything was phenomenal. The service was great as well. We finished our meal with a cappuccino with pistachio, & it was so good! What a great find if you're in the mood for a snack & a cocktail.

Bar Edicola is such a gem! My girlfriend & I stopped by for a morning coffee, & it was hands-down one of the best I've had in the city. The vibe is so joyful & welcoming that you immediately feel at home. We came back for a 5@7 & ended up staying way longer than planned, it's the kind of place where you completely lose track of time. The Italian-inspired dishes were delicious, & the hospitality was warm, playful, & genuine. Every second there was a pleasure! can't wait to go back!
