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.

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.

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.
