Review Summary

Bar George offers a visually stunning and historic dining atmosphere that is widely praised for its opulence and architectural beauty, making it a popular choice for special occasions. Many guests highlight the Beef Wellington as a standout dish, alongside a creative cocktail menu and generally high-quality British-inspired cuisine. However, experiences vary significantly regarding service, which some find impeccable and attentive, while others describe it as inconsistent, impersonal, or slow. While the ambiance is frequently described as vibrant and sophisticated, a subset of diners finds the music too loud or mismatched for the venue, and others note that the pricing is high for the portion sizes provided. Ultimately, the restaurant is often viewed as a memorable destination for its setting and culinary highlights, though individual encounters with staff and pacing can impact the overall satisfaction of the visit.

If I can give the manager of special events zero star I would have. We called two weeks ago & discussed a private event for 30 people for July 10th, & after speaking with the manager we followed up with voice messages & emails to no avail. Today we called & she finally picked up the call, only to tell us this date is now not availble, & asked us to pick another date.
I don't recommend this place for anyone. Maybe just a drink at the bar.

Sat on the longue side & had a bit & a few drinks. The drinks are on the pricey side. Service was slow. Atmosphere was the reason why we booked a reservation.

Not what it should be.
Order black label, they only serve chivas. For 25$ a drink, get bl. Worse, the bartender says it's the same...

No class at all

Bar George is hands down my go-to spot in Montreal. I absolutely love everything about it. The stunning decor & the incredible ambiance. The music always sets the right mood, whether you're there for drinks with friends or a special night out. The cocktails are consistently excellent, & the overall vibe keeps me coming back again & again. If you're looking for a place with character, great drinks, & an unforgettable atmosphere, Bar George never disappoints.

The restaurant is also a must-try. The food was beautifully presented & absolutely delicious.

Perfect place for afterworks, meetings, & special occasions. Avoid F1 nights - way too crowded for nothing special.

If you don't like crowds & people pushing each other around with their drinks like me, don't buy a ticket.

Thursdays are the best!

Valet parking available, plus underground parking as well.

Horrible service at the bar, by the bar man!
Tuesday at 2 pm.

Unfortunately this is not my first time, last time I had a horrible experience too, service wise.

2 drinks for 60$, I can't tolerate this kind of service.

Great atmosphere. But we had horrible service last night. I had a reservation booked for 9:30 pm in the dining room - when we arrived the girl at the front asked us if we were going to order a full course meal, we had planned to order some drinks & shareables not full meals so she wouldn't seat us because of that. We stood in line for over 30 minutes to be seated in the bar area & then finally when it was our turn I told another hostess about our situation & she said there must have been confusion because there was many tables open in the dining room & if we were to order food then we can sit there… by this time it's 10pm & the kitchen closed but they were able to take our order. So unfortunate because we had heard great things.
